FUEL OF THE FUTURE.

Natural gas Is beginning TO play out
in the regions that have made use of it
for fuel for domestic and manufacture
ing purposes. Pittsburg proposes to re-
turn to the use of coal. The latter is
not being created by processes of such
rapidity as to replenish the exhaustion.
1t will play out in time, and the fuel Of
the future will not be coal or natural
gas. Science is reaching out in various
directions, and one of its latest sugges-
tons is the possibility of utilizing the
heat of friction. Until quite recent
times there was little knowledge Of
other methods of creating blaze than
friction. If ADAM ever lighted cob
pipe, he probably rubbed dry sticks to-
gether, just as the savages and primitive
people have generally done. Car aXles
often become intensely hot. A hun
dred years ago the eccentric Count
RUMFoRD, the Yankee philosopher,
made water boil by the heat of friction.
His theory that cheat is a mode
of motion" has received scien-
tifc Endorsement, and an American
devised processes by which this
heat can be stored and utilized. One of
his inventions is a rapidly revolving bar
of soft steel that melts its way through
iron bars easily. Another by the fric-
ton of revolving surfaces heats water
that is carried in pipes for warming
buildings. He expects to substitute air
for water, and by simple and cheap con-
trivance use the hot air for warming
cars and houses. as now done by fur
naces. The axles of the cars will fur
nish the heat for them. 1t is claimed
that the friction can be regulated as
other heat generators are. If his claims
are verified by results, and the rule of
the coal barOns becomes fading rem
iniscence, life will be much fuller of
cheer, and another benefactOr added to
the roll

With all our centennial memories. we
should not forget that 100 years ago last Fri
day the gallant Count Pulaski died before
Savannah while fighting for American Iiber-
ties Congress voted him a monument
which was never erected.
The site of the proposed Arcade building
is by all odds the most eligible one for an
opera house. All the other locations that
have been mentioned are out of reach. Public
convenience has to be catered TO in the
building of theater just as much as in the
building of a new hotel People will do
without theatrical amusements rather than to
be subjected to an Inconvenience in getting
to them. 1t does seem that while the theater
itself may not be source of extraordinary
profit to the owners. still the location of an
opera house i'll the Arcade block would add
greatly to the rental value of the property
surrounding 1t.
There has been a great speculation as to

fact il took long time to beat into the pop
ular Uranium the idea that there had not been
a big family ruetion and that they had not
quit each others com pany i'll high dudgeon
More recently, however, the impression is
gaining ground that there D us been no disso-
luton of the firm at ali, but that they are
equally sharing the profits Of their double
act engagement. There ls gossip in dramatic
circles to the effect that their temporary sep

pose and partly to swell the revenues of their

Scott has had hard lines since the burning
of the old opera house; yet Notwithstanding
the stumpy row he has had to hoe, he has

Gle. Though St. Paul claims Mrs. Mer-
Ram as one of its brightest women,
Washington and Philadelphia both put
in their claim, the Quaker City as her
birthplace and the national capital as
her girlhOod's home. When Gen. Hancock
was in command of the Department OF
Dakota his niece, Laura Elizabeth Han

was there she met William Rush Mer-
Ram, clerk in the Merchants National
bank on salary of $50 per month. The
wedding took place In st. Paul in 1872,
and the seventeen years have changed
the bank clerk into the president of the
same bank and governor of Minnesota,

millions
Mrs. Merriam is tall, graceful
woman. with wealth of blonde hair

four handsome children who are the life
OF the beautiful st. Paul home. The
most brilliant social political reception
ever given in Sit Paul was the one at
Gov. MeIriam'S Inauguration in Janu-
airy last. Mrs. MerriBm, true to her
democratic bringing up, invited the
first Democratic and Republican gov
ernors of Minnesota to assist her at the
reception. thus showing her unfaillng
tact on all social points.
