The efficiency of coal gas in practical
cording to accounts of recent trials at
Havre, and French capitalists are re-
ported as having taken the matter in
hand with view to it's thorough de-
velopment. In the late trials made by
the promoter an iron boat of some $50
tons was employed, vertical gas motor
of 40 horsepower furnishing the power,
coal gas compressed to a pressure of
! 400 pounds per square inch being
stored in steel tubes placed between
decks, and regulator, situated between
the gas reservoir and the motor, to re-
duce the pressure of the gas entering the
motor to the flow ordinarily required
Public trials of the craft show that
the officer in charge has her in complete
control, changing with ease her course,
also slackening or increasing the rate Of
speed and stopping or even going back
ward almost instantaneously by the use
of the reversible screw. Though the cost
of power by this system will, as claim
ed, be more economical than any other.
the chief saving will be effected by the
comparatively small room required for
the motor, and the fact is noted as re-
markable that pure coal gas compressed
to a pressure as high as 1900 pounds
per square inch, does not show an ap-
preciable condensation.

Eartbv Substances Tn Food

When we consider the amount of
earthly or inorganic substances, includ-
ing some of metallic origin, that we are
in the habit of taking with our foods, it
may be a question whether the eating
and drinking habits of our most enlight-
ened people are not open to criticism.
The Pacific Health Journal says that
it is we'll known fact that the habitual
use Of limestone and other mineral wa
tiers will cause goiter. The mineral prod
ucts cannot be absorbed into the fluids
of the body and thrown out. They are
therefore deposited in the glandular sys-
tenn, giving rise to disease of these Or
gans. And yet are not mineral waters
extolled to the skies? And do not our
invalids rush to the mineral springs
all over the country, expecting to be
healed? You could not persuade these
people that pure water would answer
just as well-in fact better-though
certain celeEeated springs, the waters of
which, as shown by chemical analysis,
are entirely free from any foreign in
gredient, have given most wonderful re-
suits.
One effect of the use of mineral Or
earthly substances in food or drink is to
use Of bicarbonate Of soda in bread, pas
tries, ETC., is no doubt injurious. But
how many are willing to give up their
hot biscuits at breakfast or their batter
cakes, though very palatable bread can
be made, and also light, with nothing
in it but air and water?

Pope Leo's Instructions.

When investigating the Vatican rec
ords, Pope Leo XIII said to Dom Gas
quet, the librarian, Publish everything
of interest; everything, whether it tends
to the discredit or credit of the ecclesi
astical authorities, for you may be sure
that if the gospels had been written in
our day the treachery of Judas and the
denial Of St. Peter would have been
suppressed for fear of scandalizing weak
consciences. So Lord Halifax told the
English church union the other day

THE C0MING ElKs BENEFIT,


 The rehearsals of the Elks' minstrals for the entertainment to be given at the Hyperion theater next Wednesday evening are progressing favorably, and the members of the lodge are satisfied that their immense first part scene in- troducing sixty of the New Haven Elks in burnt cork will be the great feature of the program, in spite of the fact that the vaudeville olio of the second part will be given by professionals Comic talent being abundant in their ranks 1t has been decided to present eight end men in the minstrel depart- ment; Al M. Milander, T. F. Ahern John McGilvray, c. E. Larom, Eugene MeKenna, Eddie Sparks, Frank C. Murphy and Charles Bazwitz. The singing promises ito be unusually fine, the quintet consisting of Charles Miller Joseph c. Crtddle, William Grabb Charles A O'Connell and MT. Joseph Mccarthy. MT. Mccarthy has more than a local reputation as an artist, and is high salaried member of the Church of the Divinie Paternity, New York Full forty Elks will supply a roLsing chorus, thus putting to the blush the singing forces of touring professional types. Dr. F. J. Brothers, the exalted ruler of the Elzs, will of f1ciate in the center and direct the amusements of the evening. The inter- est in the success of this benefit, which is for the charity fund of the lodge, has extended to Hartford, Bridgeport, Waterbury and Meriden, from which cities delegations will be in attendance in goodly numbers. After the ninstrels and the olio the entire performance will conclude with symbolic scene char acterhStic of the Elks meeting and known as The closing of the social session." in which all The visiting and local Elks will participate, introducing at least 150 persons on the stage for the capping of the climax. Seats may be secured at the box office of the Hyperion on and after 9 a. m. Monday next.

He Fired in the Air.

Paris, Dec. 6.-Just at the time of the closing of business in the chamber of deputies to-day a man in the public gallery fired two shots from a revolver. His shots were not directed toward anybody, but merely fired in the air. The offender was promptly arrested. The shots created sensation for mo- ment, but matters quieted down when it was discovered that they were harm less and evidently not fired with the intention of doing harm to any one.

New Britain Receives q Challenge From
 New Haven
 New Britain, Dec 6.--The high school boys have received a challenge from Manager Mason of the Hillhouse school of New Haven for a game of ice polo. A suggestion is also made that state league be organized, Although there is no local team the boys have become enthusiastic over the idea and will take steps to form one at once. Fitch, Mo- Donough, Meehan, Judd and Griswold have excellent chances of being ap- pointed on the team. In all probabil- ity class teams will be organized to play each other and the selection of a team to represent the school made from the best players thus developed.

After using it a week be- gan to feel better and in short while after that I was entirely cured. That terrible distress, - everything I ate breaking up sour in my throat, had all gone, and have not had moments discomfort since. To-day there isn't a healthier man, and my appetite is grand. I believe could eat keg of nails if had to, and digest them with ease. Favorite Remedy is the foe of dyspepsia and poor health"
