One that Will Bear Telling Again.

lhTOm the toronto world.
 A certain fort in the far vest so the story goes, was in command of a major of artillery who was constantly lamenting that his favor ite arm could not be more frequently used against the Indians. Finally one day he took one of the email howitzers, which defended the fort and had it securely stamped to the back of an army mule with the muzzle pro- jecting over tho animals tail. With this novel gun carriage he proceeded in high festh- with the captain and sergeant to bluff on the
 bank of the Missouri, near which was encamp
 ed band of friendly Indians. The gun was duly loaded and primed, the fuse inserted and the mule backed to the edge of the bluff The major remarked something about tht
 moral effect the exhibition was likely to pro ducs upon the Indian allies, aad stepped gayly forward and applied the match. The curiousily of the mule was aroused. He jerked his head around to see what was fzz- ing away there on his neck and the next sec ond his feet were all buchned toge ther and | making forty revolutions 8 minute while the gun was threatening everything under the
 canopy within radius of ten miles with in. stant destruction. The captain skinned ur the only available tree. The sergeant threw himself fiat on the ground and tried to dig a hole with his bayonet to crawl into while the fat major rolled over and over in agony, al- ternately invoking the protection of proyi-
 dence and cursing the mule. Finally the e1 plosion came, the ball going through the roof of the fort. The reeoil of the gun and the | wild leap of the terrified mule carried both | ever the bluff to safe anchorage at the bot tom of the river. The discomfted party re- | turned sadly to the fort.
 Shortly after the chief of the Indians ap.
 peared and announced briefly: "Injun SC | home"
 Questioned as to why he thus explained ''Injun ver' brave, help white man. Injur | use gun, use bow arrow, use knife; but wher | wbite man fire off whole jackass, Injun nc ! understand, no think right. Injun no helr | um fight that way"

THE USE OF GAS AS FUEL.

The use of natural gas as fuel has made great changes. For instance, the introduce tion of natural gas into the manufacturing establishments of western Pennsylvania forced those who were engaged in similar occupations elsewhere, in localities where natural gas could not be obtained, to have resource to economies in the use of fuel as a means of holding their own in the competi- tive struggle for market One of the most useful of these is the use of gas made from coal The gas can be made from the cheapest qualities of coal, which would rank only above the grade of refuse at the coal pits. It is estimated that in factory supplied with the latest devices of this kind, the various economies result in a saving of nearly two thirds of the cost of obtaining the needed heat by the use of coal in the ordinary man ner.
 But the use of gas for fuel has it's draw backs One of them is the great danger of destruction by fire which turks in It's use. Recent events have called attention sharply to this danger, and 8 leading insurance journal, the Chronicle, indicates how great the danger is. The Chronicle publishes tables that show the losses rom ten le3dlng known causes of fire in the State of Pennsyl- vania for the last three years. In each year incendiarism is at the top of the list, the average annual loss from this cause having been more than $55e. 900. In 1885 natural gas was at the bottom of the list with a loss of only $72, TOO. In 1886 it had risen from the tenth place to the third, with loss of S308, OPS, and in 1887 loss of S24s, ,033 gave it the fifth place. In the last named year four per cent of the fires in the entire State
 were caused by this gas, and the percentage for that part of the State where natural gas is used was, of course, much larger. For the three years the property loss from this cause yss 5000, 152 and the insurance loss S700, ,439. It has been said that the use of the gas tends to diminish the fire loss by eliminating many of the hazards incident to the use of other fuel" The Chronicle can find TO proof of the truth of this assertion.
 Of course the use of natural or manufac- tured gas as fuel will not be greatly checked by their danger, for they are very convenient. The insurance companies can and will pro- tect themselves and help protect the public.

An Error Corrected.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 An error appeared in the first paragraph of your report of the annual meeting of the New Haven branch of the Woman's Board of Missions held in the Center church May 8 so grave in it's character that it's correction seems important.
 You said truly that it was not delegate d body, but added erroneously: Anyone not a member of the association was confronted by big signs on the doors of the church, sClosed.'"
 Now these 'fbig signs" alike ''confronted" each individual of the hundreds who entered the audience room, everyone of whom was welcome at the meeting, and no questions were asked as to membership or opinions.
 Experience has taught that quiet is one of the essential conditions of hearing at such a meeting, and that the constant noise of open ing and closing doors should as far as possi- ble be avoided. For this reason the doors were kept closed until each short exercise was concluded, when they were freely opened for entrance or exit. Intervals for this open- ing of the doors were given when an exercise required more than brief interval of time. Large cards of explanation were conspieu- ously placed in the vestibule of the church, and some lady in attendance much of the time to farther make evident the reasons for few moments delay.
 Will you add this explanation to the long list of favors which from time to time we have received from you, and for which please accept our thanks.
 In behalf of the executive committee of the New Haven branch of the Womans Board of Missions E. A. PRUDDEN.
