amendments. Such notice must set forth the particular grounds of objection, and be in duplicate. A fee of 10s. is payable thereon.

No. 12825.—31st July, 1900.—Thomas Henry Pearse, of 89, State Street, Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America, Gentleman (assignee of Matthew Prior, of 15, Patent Street, Watertown, Massachusetts aforesaid, Inventor). Improvements in cotton-gins and wool-burrers.

The nature of the proposed amendments is as follows:—
(1.) To insert the words “arranged tangentially to each other” after the words “series of rolls,” line 16, page 5.
(2.) To insert the following after the paragraph ending “similar substances,” line 30, page 6: “Referring now to Figs. 6 to 11, where are shown the details of construction of the form of clearer and operating mechanism therefor as shown in Fig. 3, it will be seen that the clearer is divided into a number of sections 70, six being shown, each section being operated by two eccentrics on the eccentric shaft 14, said sections being held in proper alignment by guide-plates 71, 72, bolted to the ribbed cross-plate 12. This cross-plate is exceedingly rigid, and co-operates with the multipart or sectioned arrangement of the clearer in making it possible to maintain the vibrations of the clearer at an exceedingly high speed, thereby enabling the machine to turn out a greatly increased output. Each section of the clearer is composed of a base-plate 73, which, in case the comb-like form of clearer is used, serves as a carrier for the teeth 65, and on this base-plate is mounted a second plate 74, having a housing 75 adjacent each end thereof, in which the arms 76 from the eccentric-straps are pivotally mounted on studs or short shafts 77, passing through said housings and secured therein by pins 78. The arms 76 have stops 79 in order to keep them properly centred in said housings, and each arm 76 terminates at its rear end in a semicircular portion 80 of the eccentric-strap, the remainder thereof being composed of the opposite semicircular portion 81, which together are bolted about the adjacent eccentric.”

The applicant states:— “My reasons for making these amendments are as follow: That, either in transmission or in copying, a part of the original specification was inadvertently lost, said loss not being discovered until the specification had been accepted, and that said part, being descriptive of the subject-matter of claims 3, 4, and 5, and being illustrated in Figs. 6 to 11, inclusive, of the drawings, is important to the full understanding of the invention.”

No. 13480.—13th March, 1901.—Samuel Milnes, of Auckland, New Zealand, Engineer, and Herbert William de Baugh, of Auckland aforesaid, Commercial Traveller. An improved portable combination furnace for domestic and other purposes.

The nature of the proposed amendments is as follows:—
(1.) To insert the words “or more” after the word “two,” and to strike out the words “as shown in Fig. 4,” line 20, page 2.
(2.) To insert the words “or more” after the word “two,” line 22 page 2, line 28 page 3, and line 11 page 4.

The applicants state:—“Our reasons for making the amendments are as follow: That the invention may be more correctly described and the manufacture simplified.”
