A PRESS BANQUET.
Testing the Capacity and Economy o
Gas Ranges.

Testing the Capacity and Economy of
Gas Ranges.
An event which created considerable in
terest around the gas-stove exhibit OF the
San Francisco Gaslight Company on Wednes-
day evening and an amount of favorable
comment since was the press banquet
given in open view of the visitors to the
fair for the purpose of demonstrating the
economy and capacity of gas stoves for fam
lily cooking.
Representatives of the press were re-
ceived early in the evening by c. w. Wat
son. the efficient manager of the depart.
ment, who first explained the workings OF
the gas stoves and heaters to his guests and,
after satisfying their cravings for informa-
ton; then escorted them 10 the banquet
table, in the rear of the exhibit, where cov-
ers were laid for ten.
Directly in front Of the table was the stove
upon which the cooking was 10 he done, an
ornamental piece of kitchen furniture of a
size which is guaranteed to be sufficient for
family of seven adults. Intending pur-
chasers, upon their first introduction TO such
a stove, invariably declare that 1t is too
small for the purpose. but had these skeptlcS
been Present on Wednesday night 1t would
have been an easy matter to convince them
that the stoves real capacity is far above
the guaranteed.
In order that perfect fairness might be
observed in the demonstration the host made
the gas. connections to the stove through q
perfectly new meter whose three dials point
ed straight to zero. Having noted this fact
gas was turned on. a match was struck and the
guests retired to the table where they awaited
results. at the end of u minutes a cou-
pie of attentive walters served the soup and
fish; twelve minutes later steak and mush-
rooms followed, and then at intervals of a
few moments came the entrees, vegetables,
roast, the dessert, and finally the cafe nOir
These courses included sweetbreads, stuffed
tomatoes, string beans. green peas, canvas
back duck and numerous other toothsome
dishes cooked to a turn.
For ffty-seven minutes both burners in
the stove were kept going, and then for
eight minutes longer a single burner kept
the coffee warm till it was needed. Fire
consequently was kept up for an hour and
fifteen minutes. and on consulting the meter
it registered less than 30 feet of gas con-
suped, showing a cost of between and
cents for fuel for the meal.
The experiment was prounced complete
success by all who took part in the test and
eniGyed the menu.
