YIELD PER POUND OF COAL.
"He has appealed to his carbonizng 90

HE has appealed 10 his carboni2lng &C
count; let the account show the result
All this,has.taken place while " have beer
learning my lesson" followed his advice
10 study the duties Of my new position
before he sneeringly gave IT, AS to thu
quality OF the gas supplied to the Citizenl
Of Wheeling say with confidence that Il
Is better than that used in any western city
as photomeLric test will show. The stand
ard Of candle power In Cincinnati is lab
and In Columbus II. Pittsburgh claims
ID, but don't have it. Our gas has been
about 10, oftener above than below thai
figure" Hero the reporter was INVITED Ia
witness the candle power Of some gas that
was made on Thursday, or before The sp.
pearenCe OF MI. Brownies card ,as registered
by a photometer. This gas registered IL
strong. "This gas" resumed Mr.. Dillon,
us furnished at higher pressure than Mr.
Browne deemed 1t necessary to keep up
during his term Of office. Mr.. Brown had
no photometer with which 10 estimate the
power Of the gas manufactured by him,
and no doubt thinks that his gas was the
brightest on the same principle that
every crow thinks her chick the BLACKLIST.
That some citizens do not receive the iull
benefit OF the good gas now made Is gener.
ally owing to the fact that the wofkmeu
who labored under Mr.. Browns supervis.
ion, placed the meters and service pipes
In situations where they were liable 10 DO
choked up by frost. The use OF little
judgment on the part OF Mr.. Brown In gu.
perintending the work would have pre-.
vented or obviated this trouble. In the
case Of the street lamps, SO many OF which
are frozen up by the severely cold weather
this state OF things results from the aston.
ishing ignorance that CharaCterizes the
way in which they were set. Instead OF
using three.quarter inch stand pipe q
half inch or thtee.eighth inch pipe was
used. The base OF the post and the int.
rior OF the base, from which the earth
should have been carefully excluded, was
filled with earth, which freezes around the
pipe causing frosts TO form within and thus
check the flow Of gas. No postsset during
my administration have frozen up this
winter, nor have any OF those Of my pre-.
deCessor, which time has allowed the last
summer to properly reset.
"Mr. Brown also calls attention 10 the
fact that bench OF lives was not used
