IOWA WAR OFFICE.

The Metropolitan historian attached to the
editorial Corps OF the Chicago Republican
recently paid visit to the City of Clinton in
this State and this is what be said of Adiu.
tant General Bakers office, and some Of the
Military Statistics Of tho State there collect.
ed:
Adjutant General Baker, Of Iowa, has
Temporarily established his otiice At Clinton,
but will remove to Des Moiaes as soon as the
new building, now in course Of construction,
is completed. The present Office is located
on First street, and embraces the second and
third stories of a spacious brick building.
The yoluminous military records OF the State
are neatly arranged on either side ot large
room fitted up for their reception. a regis
ter is provided for each regiment in the To-
wa service, and every mans history record
ed, showing his nationality, where and when
he enlisted, and what became Of him. Ad-
jutant General Baker is also Inspector Gem
eral, Acting Quartermaster and Comm:ssary
General Of Iowa.
We subjoin few facts and figures relative
to the Iowa service, that are not devoid of
interest:
Two hundred and nineteen officers were
killed or died Of wounds. and 1913 died Of
disease during the war; 3,2es soldiers were
killed or died of wounds s,409 died Of dis
ease, and 9,777 we're discharged for disabil
ity.
The Strife of Iowa furnished upward Of
$4,000 men for the war, being 5000 above
all assigned quotas.

THE DANGERS or PETROLEUM.

The disastrous petroleum ire Of Fri
day night last reviycs the question OF
its dangers and the way to avoid
them. During the early days of the
petroleum excitement, when law-mak
ers knew no more Of its properties
than did the general public, law
was passed forbidding the storage Of
petroleum of less than certain
gravity. which met the point OF
danger as much as would law forbid
ding the handling Of gunpowder
whose grains were not Of an establish
ed coarseness. The explosive quality
in petroleum is benzole, which exists
to greater or less degree in all
grayitics of the crude III except the
lubricating oils. Ia some Of the
lighter oils of Western Pennsylvania
the proportion Of benzole is nearly or
quite 25 per cent. The first action in
the refining process is to remove the
benzole, which should be thrown
away, or, at most, only used for fuel.
The largest and best known refners
never retain this ingredient in their
oils, justly considering it too danger
GUS to be tampered with. There are
INSCRIPTIONS refners, however who
add this bcnzole to their refined oil
to increase its bulk and their conse-
quent profit. and it is this oil. contain
ing large proportion Of benzole,
which expiodes and brings discredit
upon the whole petroleum trade. Oil
properly refined viii extinguish a
burning brand as quickly as water,
and such oil only should be sold.
One simple law would regulate the
question OF danger from oil explosions.
Let the law enact that policemen or
other officers shall test all oil offered
for sale, by putting lighted match
into a vessel containing it. II it ex-
tinguishes the match. it is safe if it
explodes, let tie oil be seized and
contiscated as dangerous. The
rapacity OF uncrupulous manufacturers
or dealers should not be allowed to
endanger the lives and property OF
honest men.-N y. Tribune.

They sometimes change places, and
very often the hired man becomes the
more intelligent, cultivated. ana

voted for former day laborer as his
