Turning Water Into Empty Hot Boilers.
Some time ago a boiler was constructed
in Manchester, England, with view to
testing the practice advised by some in
case of shortness of water being dis
covered, of turning on the feed water, a
somewhat startling method OF procedu @
according to some. In these tests the
furnaces were barred Of water by opening
the blowoff cock and allowing the water
to escape while good bright fires were
burning, which could not fail to over
heat the plates.
When sufficiently heated to melt disks
of lead, tin and zinc the feed was sud
denly turned on through special pipes
which injected the water directly on to
the heated plates, but in no case, as is
often assumed, was this followed by a
sudden generation of steam at an exces-
sive pressure, but in one case actually a
reduction of pressure took place. The
only mishap which took place proved, it
seems, to have been due to the feed not
having been turned on soon enough.
Again, the hogging upward of the flue
tubes, which was accurately ascertained
by means of rods, was in some cases
found to be as much as one-half inch.
The individuality of hurrying fires
when raising steam was demonstrated as
beyond question. New York Sun.

Summary Exeoution.

A despotic government has its advan-
tages, and among them is the easy collec-
ton of debt, provided the ruler is
friendly to the creditor. Ahmed Vefyk
Pasha, Turkish statesman, was once
governor of Broussa. and this story is
told Of his paternal rule:
A rich man had judgment pronounced
against him in favor of poor man. The
latter, owing to the brides of the rich
man, could not obtain execution, and
complained to Ahmed Vefyk. After
hearing the case, Ahmed saw the debtor
riding up to the Konak upon a beautiful
Arab horse. He ordered the creditor to
sit down, called messenger and whis-
pered to him.
The debtor entered the room, and was
surprised at the exceptional cordiality Of
the pasha, who invited him to sit down,
to take coffee and to converse. Pres
emily, when he rose to leave, the pasha
pressed him to remain, and kept him
more than an hour, until, indeed, mes
senger entered the room and placed a
small bag on the table before Ahmed.
When the debtor next rose, Ahmed

life. There is now only half a second
difference in their records. Wanda has
beaten Frank NJ, and the latter has
beaten Wanda. 1t is toss-Lp between
them, so we'll are they matched. Nc
Kinney has never met either Wanda or
Frank M, but there are a whole lot of
people down here who would risk con-
siderable money on the Los Angeles
4 year old, even against such speedy
campaigners as Wanda and Frank M.
are.

The meeting of the two FLIES from
the Rose and Wise stables will be one
of the events of the coming week. AIDE
laide McGregor showed a mile in 2:3l
at San Diego. The Stamboul filly out at
Rosemeade was driven a mile in 232
about three weeks since. These are
undoubtedly the two speediest FLIES
that have met in California this year.
Horsemen confidently expect one or the
other to trot one of the heats in 1926,
which is going for 2 year old. DIR.
Wise thinks he has another Nancy
Hanks in Adelaide McGregor. She is
certainly one of the most promising
FLIES in America, and it is to be hoped
that the high expectations of the doctor
will be realized.

A car load of Los Angeles trotters will
be sent north after the coming meeting
to try for record over the kite-shaped
track at Stockton. Mckinney, Glendine,
Lucy r and Redondo will be among the
number. 1t is apparently no trick to
cut off three or four seconds on the kite.
This is apparent to those who are &C
quainted with the horse Balkan, who re-

mean they make 'em there, you know,
so as to show off. I've been on this cor
ner for years, and l never saw so many
women with holes in their stockings.
OF course, it is not exactly square to
look, but a blind man could not help
but see a patch of white skin in a black
stocking. They put 'em there to at
tract attention, see? 1t is always in a
black stocking on pretty ankle. 1t is
fashionable, just like black patches on
the face used to be, but it amt right !;
no sir, it amt right. 1t gets men run
over by the cars and things-it amt
right. Now, look at that. There is 60
ing to be more accidents on account of
this thing-the insurance companies
ought to look into it-yes, sir. HALT the
men who are getting run over and cart
ed off to the hospital in an ambulance
are crippled that way. Drivers can't
look out for such people when they
have so much to distract their atten-
ton. A pretty woman who goes along
Broadway with such thing as it is
really a walking menace to life and
limb, and ought to be arrested. See?
Yes, sir, she ought. to be locked up for
breach of the peace, or a disorderly, or
something. They think they are smart,
