~ By turning = spigot, the same ~ for

Is the latest plan 10 circumvent the A.
eense court. II is certainly true that
necessity Is the mother Of invention"
and the scarcity Of the saloons after To-
morrow has set many persons 10 cud-
Ceiling their brains for pans 10 make
up for the loss. That OF furnishing
beer 10 private houses through pipes
running direct from the brewery Is the
invention Of William Hogg, the Hong
Kong blue manufacturer of Allegheny
City.
The idea Is 10 lay pipes In the streets
the same AS other pipes are laid. end
these will have house connections, the
beer passing through u meter in each
house TO show the quantity used. The
pipes will be of peculiar construction,
and three In number, one inside the
other. The outer pipe will be OF clay.
This will surround an inner pipe Of
iron. which will still have another In
side of 1t. The inner pipe will be two
inches In diameter. lined with silver TO
prevent corrosion.
Between this pipe and the other iron
pipe will bea space OF about woinches
oil around, 10 give space TO current OF
cold air FROM the eice-making machinery
at the brewery, thus keeping the beer
cool all the time.
Mr.. Hogg calculated that pressure
of $1,000 gallons In hogshead or reser-
voir on the sixth floor Of the brewery
will be sufIicint TO force the beer through
the pipes and into the houses were the
service pipes run. The consumers will
pay no license or tax. but IL will be
necessary for the brewer TO aflix the in
ternal revenue stamps To the hogshead
In the brewery. The plan contemplates
sending around persons once amonth to
examine the meters, see how much
beer has been consumed, and collect the
money for it. About once a month the
pipes will be cleaned out thoroughly
in order to keep them in good condition
and prevent the beer from spelling. AS
yet he has not figured on the cost, but
he does not expect it to be larger than
he will be able to secure money for TO
put them down. The nrst trial will be
in Allegheny.
