MADE IN
LOS ANGELES
THRIVING INDUSTRY A FIXTURE
AT DOLGEVILLE
THE BEST ELECTRIC HEATING
AND COOKING APPLIANCES
Extensive Plant of ths Energetic Com.
pany to Be Enlarged to Meet
the Rapidly Increasing
Demand
It Is now a universally recognized busi
ness axiom that no one faotor contributes
more toward the upbuilding of a city than
manufacturing. Industries have built up
the great eastern cities, and It Is the
manufacturer to a large extent who must
be looked to In making Los Angeles rank
with the leading commercial centers of
the country. Though mining and agri
cultural Interests may form a substantial
contribution to the forward movement of
the Southern California metropolis the
•noouragement of the "Made In Los An
geles" slogan Is the real key to her future
greatness In the world of commerce. Any
local manufacturing "Industry, therefore,
that Is thriving and making Its Influence
felt on the basis of merit and merit alone
Is entitled to recognition and encourage
ment. By bo doing, the million population
mark will become more and more a prob
ability and the supremacy of Los Angeles
will be assured.
A chance visit of a Herald representa
tive to Dolgevllle a few days ago em
phasized the fact that this prosperous
little suburb on the San Gabriel line of
the Huntlngton eleotrlc system Is doing
more than Its share In the matter of
pushing Los Angeles to the front. Less
than three years ago Dolgevllle was prac
tloally unknown. Today It Is not only
a charming home city, but supports a
strong banking Institution and a number
of good stores. A postofflce, telephone
system and nearly all the conveniences
that are part and parcel of the parent
city are enjoyed by the enterprising and
wideawake people of Dolgevllle.
And what has brought about the change
In the space of three short years? In
dustrial enterprises that have become fix
tures, giving lucrative employment io
hundreds of skilled mechanics and netting
corporations and individuals handsome
returns every year. It Is merely a case
of history repeating itself and with each
repetition comes a healthy, substantial
forward movement.
Electric Appliance Industry
One of the principal manufacturing en
terprises of Dolgeville, and one that was
recently established, is the Electric Heat-
Ing and Manufacturing company, incor
porated, manufacturers of electric heat-
Ing and cooking appliances of every
description, and contractors for the In
stallation of power, light and heating
plants.
Here Is a manufacturing Industry that
¦hould not only be encouraged because
It belongs to Los Angeles, but also be
cause the company is making better, more
durable. a™i more satisfactory electric
goods than any of Its competitors. The
advantages of cooking, heating and Iron
ing by electricity as against the old gas
or stove method have long been recog
nized, but it remained for the Electric
Heating and Manufacturing company to
put electric appliances on the market
that combined the necessary features of
economy.
Besides being handsome in appearance,
the E. H. and M. appliances are econom
ical in the matter of first cost as well
as In maintenance and operation. The
goods sell for less than those made by
any other manufacturers, cost half as
much in electric power to operate them
snd are practically Indestructible. The
Inventor of the electric appliances manu
factured at Dolgevllle, and he is a Cali
fornia man, too, has so perfectly over
come the annoying and expensive "burn-
Ing out" feature that the company has
been unable io make the electric flat Iron
burnout with a constant application of
power for 140 consecutive hours.
Plant a Beehive of Industry
The thoroughly up-to-date plant of the
Electric Heating and Manufacturing com
pany Is located about three blocks south
of the Dolgevnle electric station and con
sists of a substantial one-story brick
building 60x140 feet In size. The factory
is a veritable beehive of Industry, a large
force of skilled operatives being employed
In the seven departments, forming and
finishing ¦ the various electric appliances
that have become so popular with tho
public in general. In fact the demand is
0 great that some difficulty Is ex
perienced In keeping up with It, and
negotiations are now In progress with a
view to making important additions to
the plant and Increasing the manufac
turing facilities generally. Orders for the
goods have not been confined to the Pa
cific coast section, but come from prac
tically every state in the Union. With an
Increase In the capacity for production,
there is absolutely no limit to the selling
field, as the E. H. and M. goods possess
the very features thai the public is look
ing for. The inventor made an exhaus
tive study of the best methods of utiliz
ing electricity with the highest degree of
economy and efficiency, and the best evi
dence of his success Is the enormous and
ever increasing monthly sales of the ap
pliances.
Popular Electric Devices
Included In the list of electrical ap
pliances manufactured by the company Is
an electric flat Iron, a portable electric
¦tove or disc heater, an electric pancake
griddle, an electric bread toaster, an elec
tric bake oven, an electric foot warmer,
an Instantaneous electric water heater
and electric room heaters and radiators.
The llatiron is made in four sizes and
•ells at prices ranging from $5.50 to $7.25.
Including cord and lamp socket plug. For
18.50 to $9 the up-to-date housekeeper can
buy the electric stove or disc heater, that
Is truly a "thing of beauty and a Joy for
ever." Its form Is such that it can be
used for cooking anything requiring a
hot, flat surface, and is Instantly avail
able by the simple operation of attaching
it to the regular lamp socket of the room.
An exceedingly popular appliance Is the
electric bread toaster, selling at from $6
to $7.50, by means of which fresh, hot
toast can be made right on the dining
room table, the bread being toasted on
both sides at the same time. Pancake
griddles list at from VT.SO to $17, and elec
tric foot warmers, that maintain a tem
perature of 130 degrees on a 110-volt cir
cuit, can be bought at $4.00 and $5.50 each.
Every appliance Is thoroughly tested
before being shipped, and full Instructions
accompany each article In the way of
makfhg attachments, etc. "*
The entire plant is operated by electric
ity, and besides costly machinery for the
actual manufacture of the appliances in
cludes a complete outfit for making tools,
a pattern department and one of the
largest nlrk«l, copper and brass plating
plants on the Pacific coast.

PRESIDENT ISNT A
REALLY TRUE FARMER
ONLY PITCHED HAY FOR FUN,
SAYS SENATOR KNOX
Hired Man Let Out Secret, but Story
Had Already Increased Roosevelt's
Popularity with Agricul
turalists
Newspapers all over the country re
cently have been devoting much space,
many pounds of printer's Ink and tons of
white paper to exploiting the prowess of
President Roosevelt in the hay field. For
a time it looked as though Uie laurels of
Ben Tillman, pitchfork senator from South
Carolina, were to wrested from him.
The president, it was said, had pitched
hay to a man on top of a load faster
than the farm hand could take care of it.
This fact, if it was a fact, was made
much of. Farmer Corntassel exhorted his
hired help to emulate the strenuous presi
dent, and his hired help spat on his hands
and tried his durndest.
The story was a vote getter among em
ploying farmers, birt it didn't make the
president particularly strong with the
hired .men.
The joke, however, was too good to
keep, and finally Senator Knox tipped the
whole thing off. It seems that President
Roosevelt wasn't really working at the
time this hay pitching incident occurred.
He wasn't striving to get his hay into
the barn before the arrival of an im
pending Bhower. He was merely exercis
ing, pcsslbly to reduce his flesh, for the
president, though he Is a great admirer
o f . Taft's personality, has no desire to
resemble the war secretary in his person.
Knox Lets It Out
Senator Knox told the story in Valley
Foige, Pa., before a gathering of Elks,
and the New York Sun reports him as
follows:
"President Roosevelt," he said, "was
sui prised by a Kansas delegation at Oys
ter Bay not long ago. The pcesldent ap
pealed with coat and collar off, trousers
hitched by belt and mopping his fore
he»a.
" 'Ah, gentlemen,' he said, 'delighted to
see you, delighted. But I'm very busy
putting In my hay, you know. Just come
dowr to the barn with me and we'll talk
i over while I work.'
"Down to the barn hustled the delega
tion and president.
"Mr. Roosevelt seized a pitchfork. But,
beheld, there waa no hay on the floor!
Uchii, John,' shouted the president to
sounds in the hayloft, 'Where's all tae
hoy?'
" 'I ain't had time to throw it back, sir,
since you threw it up yesterday, sir,
came a man's voice from the loft."

LOS ANGELES HERALD: SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 28, 1907.
OFFICIAL DRAFTSMAN
REFUSES RAISE IN PAY
Navy Yard Employe Assumes an
Unusual Position — His Novel
Reasons for His
Action
Special to Ths Herald.
BROOKLYN, N. T., July Z7.— A eltua
tlon positively unique and without prece
dent in the history of the navy has arisen
In the steam engineering department of
the local navy yard. Henry Cohn, a
draftsman in that department, has re
fused to allow the government to increase
his salary.
This statement may appear to be In
credible, but It is, nevertheless, a fact.
Cohn, who has been employed In the de
partment for several years, was doing
such good work that the chief drafts
man, R. H. Stultz, decided to recommend
him for an Increase. The recommenda
tion was approved by the head of the
department, indorsed by the commandant,
and forwarded to the secretary of the
navy.
A letter was received from Secretary
Metcalf granting the raise that Is usually
given to draftsmen.
Cohn was apprised of the fact, but In
dignantly refused to accept the Increase.
The news stunned every one In the draft
ing room and the clerical force. Many
of them have made repeated but unsuc
cessful attempts to have their salaries
raised, and then to learn that a man who
was fortunate enough to secure the addi
tion to his pay had declined to take it
words, mere words, were utterly inade
quate to express their feelings.
Thinking that perhaps Cohn was suf
fering from a temporary mental aberra
tion, Mr. Btults and Commander R. T.
Hall, chief of the department, reasoned
with him, but he was obstalnate. He
would not under any circumstances ac
cept the proffered increase. Anything
that either Mr. Stults or Commander Hall
could «ay would not swerve him from
his purpose, so they desisted in the'.r
attempts.
The contention of Cohn Is that as the
department thought his services valuable
| enough to warrant an increase, the
granted additional remuneration was
hardly adequate for a man if he was all
that the letter of recommendation said
of him. He feels that It would be a blow
t.-> his self-respect to reaffirm his oath of
fidelity to the government for the paltry
raise the department saw fit to allow.
; He prefer* to continue at his original
rating, unless the secretary makes the
. Increase of salady what he regards as fair
. compensation.
His decidedly unusual view of the mat
. ter has furnished much debate and specu
lation among his fellow employes, and
the further action of the department Is
awaited with the keenest interest. Will
. the government grant an additional In
crease or rescind the present letter? Is J
1 the question that is agitating the clerks
and draftsmen of the steam engineering
department.
BRA3H CHICAGO WOMAN

CLOCK TELLS DEATH IS
NEARING THIS FAMILY
Owned by a Prominent Physician
Whose Relatives Are the
Ones to Lose Their
Lives
HUNTINGTON, Term., July 27.-Btored
away In a dusty attic at the home of Dr.
W. T. Porch; the oldest and most prom
inent physician of Bakervllle, in Hum
phreys county, Is an old fashioned Seth
Thomas clock. Dust covered and time
worn, this old clock many years ago re
fused to further record the fleeting hours
and was stored away in the attic with
cast oft plunder. Dr. Porch is quite aged
and had been married three times, and
the old clock occupied a prominent posi
tion on the mantel in the family room
from the first day he began keeping house
until it waa cast away as being worthless.
Shortly after the death of Dr. Porch's
first wife he was called to see a gentle
man residing in the neighborhood who was
quite 111. The patient's wife that night
dreamed that her husband died and that
she afterward married the physician. She
also dreamed that she became the mother
of twin children and at their birth she
died. Strange as It may seem, In after
years Dr. Porch and the lady were mar
ried. They lived happily together for
some time, and finally twins were born
to the union, but the mother never lived
to see the children, death resulting at
their birth. Dr. Porch states that he be
lieves the dream had more than anything
else to do with the death of his wife. But
now to the story of the old clock.
After a lapse of some time Dr. Porch
was again married, and the old clock oc
cupied Its accustomed place on the man
tel, as heretofore. To this last union were
born several children, among them being
Carrie, John Boy and Porter Porch. One
Sunday morning, long after the clock had
been discarded and as Dr. Porch and his
daughter Carrie were preparing to attend
Sunday school, ten plain and distinct
strokes rang out from the old clock in
the attic. But little attention was paid
to the Incident at the time, and It was be
lieved that a mouse or rat had become
entangled in the clock wire and caused
it to strike. However, It was noticeable
that the ten strokes were as plain and
distinct as if the clock had been running.
Shortly afterward Miss Carrie complained
of not feeling well and stated that she
would not attend Sunday school. She
rapidly grew worse and at exactly 10
o'clock lapsed into unconsciousness and
died. Then it was that the striking of
the old clock was recalled, but Dr. Porch
is not a superstitious man and would not
believe that the clock had anything to do
with the death of his daughter.
Time wore on, and the next oldest child,
John Boy, was taken sick. For a long
while he lingered between life and death,
and one night, as friends and members of
the family sat around the bedside, there
rang out, clear and distinct, from the old
clock in the attic eight strokes. The
puzzled look on the faces of the members
of the family evidenced to the friends
present that they feared the worst and
recalled the first warning of the old time
piece. Next morning at 8 o'clock John
Boy passed into the great unknown, being
unconscious at tho time of his death.
Jones Was Not Out
Bronzed by foreign suns, he entered
the office of his colleague, but the
cashier's chair was vacant.
"Is Mr. Jones out?" he asked anxious
ly. "I am an old friend of his."
"No, Bir," returned the clerk. "Mr.
Jones Is not out. He won't be out for
ten years."
Here he smiled grimly.
"The firm is out, though," he went
on. "150.000 exaotly."

Special to The Herald.
PORT JERVIS, N. T., July 27.— 80
strange and strenuous were the adven
tures of David Tracy, William Cole,
George Barber, K. Ward. George Polley
and David McMann of this place at Big
Pond, eight miles north of this town,
that a contemplated outing of a week was
cut down to twenty-four hours. Big Pond
is almost inaccessible by wagon and rare
ly visited. The party reached the pond at
2 o'clock Saturday morning.
The men found three rattlesnakes in
possession of the barn. With the aid of
lanterns the snakes were killed.
The boat house is a combined bunk
house and kitchen. The entrance of the
party was contested by several owls,
which clawed and pecked them severely.
Ward, fleeing from the owls, ran Into
two beiirs. which chased him back into
the boat house. t
In the morning the party caught in an
hour all tho fish they could carry. A
couple of wildcats leaped on some fish
laid on the bank and carried them away.
Deer drank from the pond as the men
fished. Partridges flew up in their faces;
they tripped over nil. lilts.
Unable longer to restrain their impulse
to violate the game laws, they turned and
fled from temptation.
WOMEN IN DIAMOND RUSH
TO NEW AFRICAN FIELD
Special Cable to The Herald.
SCHMIDTS DRIFT, Cape Colony, June
27.— A rush has begun to the diamond dig
gings in Griqualand West that bids fair
to rival the Kimberley excitement.
Only a short time ago no serious pros
pecting had been done In this neighbor
hood, and not an encampment was to be
s^en. Now hundreds of diggers are fran
tically at work. Camps are everywhere
and canteens and provision tents are do-
Ing a roaring trade.
Every one is busy panning out and so
far there has been practically no dis
order.
Soem men are accompanied by their
wives or sisters, and several women have
started operations independently, deter
mined to win for themselves some of
these stones, which may mean a fortune
to the lucky finder, as they compare fa
vorably with the finest Kimberley gems.
Garnets and rubies are also being fre
quently brought to light.
The outftt used by the diamond diggers
costß about 1126 and is extremely simple
to work.

VAIN HOPE ELATES
"JOE" CHAMBERLAIN
Statesman Believes He Is Well Enough
to Return to the Political
Fight in England — Lord
Curzon 111
Sppclnl Cable to The Herald.
LONDON, July 27.— Joseph Chamber
lain's belief that he can be cured suf
ficiently to return to the stress and ex
citement of the political battle Is pathetic.
Its consequences might easily become
tragic.
Following a long period of mental de
pression Mr. Chamberlain la now highly
elated, a state of mid which is recognized
as a phase of his disease. This extreme
hopefulness nnd mental activity Is accom
panied by an Increase of nervous strength
which deceives him, but does not deceive
the specialists who are attending him.
They had a consultation here recently and
frankly told their fears for Mr. Chamber
lain to his family. His American wife,
as alwnys, is his staff and mainstay.
Mr. Chamberlain receives his friends
now and assures them that he Is deter
mined to reappear in parliament at the
next session. His wife dreads the results
upon him of the excitement which would
inevitably attend his appearance should
he Insist on going Into the house.
Lord Curzon of Kedleston is again suf
fering from severe neuritis. He Is belntr
treated with elertrlc baths, which will
relieve him, it is hoped. He is extremely
anxious to reappear in politics, as this
Is the crucial time of his career. But his
ill health cripples him. For if he is to
achieve his ambition and become the Tory
leader he must fight strenuously against
the tariff reformers who have captured
the party, but whose weakness Is that
they have no man of real strength to
lead them.
Lord Curzon keeps aloof from his former
bosom friend, Arthur Balfour, and from
the other Tory leadsrs, whom he has
never forgiven for sarciflcing him when
viceroy of India to Lord Kitchener's arro
gant claims.
