AN ASTOUNDING DISCOVERY.
AN INSTANTANEOUS AND PERPETUAL FIRE
WITHOUT WOOD OR COAL.

AN INSTANTANEOUS AND PERPETUAL FIRE
WITHOUT WOOD OR COAL
From the London Athenaeum
correspondent has sent us startling
letter from Miss NJ. Betham Edwards, from
which we give an extract; 81 send you
the following particulars of recent scien-
tlfc invention, just patented and destined
without doubt to play very important part
in our economical history. think it must
be regarded as solution for once and for
all of the great coal question, not only
among ourselves, but abroad M. Bour-
bonnet, Of Dion, the celebrated lion and
panther slayer, lighted upon the following
discovery by hazard, and after
years ADMINISTRATION brought ii to
entire workable perfection. He discovered,
by means Of two natural substances, in
exhaustable in nature, the means of light
ing and maintaining fire without wood or
coal; fire instantaneously lighted and ex-
tinguished; fire costing one-teuth at least
Of ordinary fuel and, what is more wonder
ful still, a fire, the portion of which an
swering to our fuel is everlasting --that is
to say, would last lifetime. Mr.. Bour-
bonnel's invention comprchends both stove
and fuel The fires could be on the min
utest scale or on the largest. They could
be used for heating a baby's food, or for
roasting an OK. Being lighted instantan-
eously they will be great economy
Of time. NJ. Bourbonnel at once patented
his invention, and body of engin-
GERS and savants from Paris visited him
and pronounced his discovery one of the
most remarkable af the age. He has had
several offers for the purchase of the patent
in France, but wants to sell it in England,
his occupation being in another line. Any
English gentleman or firm wishing to see
his fires or stoves could do so by writing to
him a day or two beforehand. His address
is M. Bourbonncl, Dion,
have seen these fires and stoves. There is
no mistake about the matter. 1t is possible
that here we have perpetual and ecoDom-
ical source of fuel. Two hundred years
ago the discoverer would surely have been
burned as a wizard"

The State Of Illinois has had three capt.
tails. The first was Kaskaskia, at the mouth
of the Okaw river which was established
as the provincial headquarters as early as
1888, and continued the territorial capital
until 1910, when by an act Of the general
assembly the present site Of Vandalia, then
a wilderness, was selected, and state
house and other necessary buildings con-
struoted, at cost Of about $4,000. On
Feb. 2s, 1887, the capital was removed to
Springfield, and 100000 used in erecting
necessary buildings, which have since been
abandoned for the stately structure, costing
millions, which is yet uncompleted.
