Territory 7 Iowa 5 Dakota 3 Iudiaua 2 California 8 Nebraska 7

This shows that sales are not confined to former residents of this local
ity, but that people are swarming in from the East to make their homes
among us. The business of this company is constantly increasing. More
than half of its sales have been made within tho past three months, al
though this is a season of the year when sales are usually dull. The
company has from 15 to20men constantly employed. It has representatives

A Great Imentlon.
Minneapolis, Minn., Feb. 21.
After fourteen years of continuous
effort, a printer of St. Paul, by the
name of of Biggs, has patented an
invention which alms at the preven
tion of the collisions of railway
trains. Tho important point of his
scheme is a middle rail, or strip, con
sisting of thrco Insulated metal
plates, or wires, with exposed sur
faces. Tho plates aro so arranged
that two aro parallel for whatever
distance within which It Is consider
ed desirable to stop tho train. Over
their exposed edges glides a steel
brush, attached to a thread above
and connected by wires with a bat
tery, and also with tho bell in the
engineer's cab. Theso conditions
glvo an electric bell battery, ind the
connecting wires in tho triplicate
strip below open a circuit of 2000
feet.
Tho instant that a coming or fol
lowing tniln comes within this dis
tance, Its dependent steel brush,
covering two of tho plates, which
extend this distance, closes tho cur
rent and tho bells In both cabs ring,
and would ring continuously so long
as tho trains wero so near together.
