PRESERVING FOOD.
The Freezing Plan seems to he Coming

or tho four principal manners OF
preserving food in use to. day drying
and curing tho latter term including
sailing. smok .ng and antiseptic pro.
cesses are not modern; while timing
and freezing are entirely new. Tin
ming dates nominally from 1901. when
sAppert made the iirst attempts at en-.
closing food in Theoretically closed
boxes; but long course OF trials and
improvements had to be gone through
before the excellence of to-day was
obtained. Dried vegetables were in
troduced by Chollet in 1916, but the
products of that period were miser.
able in comparison with those turned
out now.
Ice has been used for moro than
quarter OF a century with tho great.
est advantage in the fishing fleet. OF
which it has entirely modified the
work. but it was not till 1875 that il
began TO be seriously employed for
the preservation OF meat during its
transport from America to Europe
nor till 1879 that tho Bell Coleman
and Haslam refrigerators. which
have rendered possible tho trade in
frozen carcasses were introduced
American frozen fresh meat wa:
brought into our markets in 1876
Australian in 1880 and New Zealand
in 1882 and yet though their com
menccments are so near to us the
three together now represent third
OF all the meat sold in London.
The second distinction is that tin.

in their action. and arc intended &c

freezing is. thus far purely tempo.

principally during periods OF trans.

The third is that while drying
usually damages animal substances
though it is applicable without bad
consequences to many fruits and vege
tables-and while the various forms
OF curing have tho Inconvenience OF

matters treated by them. both Timing

OUR ST. LOUIS LETTER.
big Municipal BelI--The Hotel Boom
A Millionaire Club--Cool Air

for Hot Rooms.
ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, Dec 29.-The fire In
the City Treasures Office has has.
tened work on the new City Hall. The
great force of builders is working pro.
tected from the wintry weather by
roofs thrown up temporarily, and a
night crew, to work by electric light.
will begin early in the year: So fast,
indeed, have been the builders that the
architects are now being pressed by
them. The workmen are finishing the
last story. A huge bell, which the
makers say is the most sonorous ever
cast in the United States, will be
swung in the dome and will strike tho
hours Cy means of an electric current
sent from the observatory in Washing
ton University. This bell is toned to
the key of "F," which musicians call
the key of nature, and will be heard
for fifteen miles.
Heavy investments are now being
made by capitalists in the building Of
new hotels here. The crowd that
annually taxes the entertainment
resources of the city to their utmost
have called the attention of moneyed
men to this field for investment, and
they have been buying ground and
planning at rate which will enable
the city to take care of - least 40, 900
more people next fall than it did last
October. Besides the immense hotel
of the Fall Festivities Association on
Fourth street, two more large ones,
and several smaller ones will be open
when the throng begins to arrive at
the beginning of the next festival
season. One of these large hotels will
be fourteen stories high, and will be
within block of the Exposition build
ing.
There are already more clubs than
one can count in st. Louis, uptown
and down town, most of them with
handsome buildings and well-flled
treasures, but, till lately, there was
none that could be called a club OF
millionaires. This one is just being
organized now. The members will not
exceed fifty, and their combined
wealth will foot up over that number
of millions. The principal object OF
the members Of the club is to have
some place downtown where they can
get good luncheon in that interval
between the morning and afternoon,
which occurs somewhere about noon.
So they call their club the MONDAY
Club" The fees and dues will DO
made so high that men who cannot
treat hundred-dol bills as pocket
money will not be inclined to enter.
The St Louis architects say that by
next summer they will have machinery
perfected that will keep offices as cool
in the hot weather as the steam coils
make them warm in the winter. The
device is simply radiator in the room,
connected with the underground pipes

moi ey by pumping cold air through
the streets to refrigerating establish.
peCts. The scheme Is one that has
been known to be practicable for n
long time, but it has not been put into
operation in any large city because no
company dealing in refrigeration
could get the right to lay pipes unde<
the streets. st. Louis is the only town
where the pipes have been laid, but
other cities will doubtless follow the
example as soon as the success of the
enterprise here is seen.
