engagements of this kind ever devised

Of the so-called scientific improvements
have been welcomed to displace it. A
small pipe is carried from the top OF
the boiler to the top Of the house. Here
1t makes an abrupt turn, going down
again to the tank in the bath room. A
smaller pipe is attached at the highest
portion of the bend. and this runs out
at the roof by the side Ut the bath
room ventilating pipe. This house is
SO situated that the pressure Is I'M
usually heavy. and this device was
adopted because a very strong valve

water which goes up through the pipe
returns to the bath room.
1t has for II long time been held by
plumbers that there are obscure rea-
sons of some sort why boilers explode.
Experiments have proved that there
are simple and scientific laws that
operate in these cases. There is no
unknown and dangerous gas, as has
sometimes been stated, but there is
almost certainly an explosion when the
pipes have become empty and are
heated red-hot, then deluged with cold
water suddenly let in. Every boiler
should be provided with safety valves

be so situated Sthat they can be ex-
amined, and this should be q regular
duty of the careful housekeeper. In
view of the dangers that attend the
use of hot water, especially where the
pressure from the mains is variable,
or when one must depend upon water
pumped into tank it would be an
excellent idea to adopt some plan
whereby section Of the supply pipe

could be so situate that q lack OF
water would Immediately give notice

when indicators, valves, steam pipes

They Defend This Cruel Custom by
Our Example.
A favorite dish among the epicures
Of Japan is raw fish eaten alive.
The dish is prepared as follows:
Upon bed Of green alyao, very COM
mon sea weed in Japan: is laid the
fish, which is then carefully carved
into slices.
This carving is q delicate operation,
Tor the carver must not injure the
heart, liver, stomach or gills Of the
fish. The vital parts being intact and
the fish laid upon the cool, damp sea
weed. it will live until the termination
of the meal.
As the guests require them, slices
are transferred from the body of the
unfortunate fish.
A guest of Japanese said he could
not cut his slice of fish while the
former owner of the morsel was re-
garding him with seemingly reproach-
full eyes. and he commented upon the
cruelty Of the custom.
His host replied it was no worse
than eating an oyster, and did not mp
proach in barbarity the broiling Of live

The Council Committee on Streets,
Alleys and Grades met last evening,
with the City Engineer, and disposed
of a number Of pending matters in one
way and another.
The first business taken up was the
petition for the opening Of an alley east
Of EoG street. between Eleventh and
Twelfth streets. 1t had been repre-
scented TO the city at the outset that the
owners o fprivate property alOn gthe
proposed alley would be glad to donate
whatever land was necessary, and on
the strength of this the Engineer made
a survey. Last night It was stated that
one or two property owners would
neither give nor sell the property neces-
sary, and The matter Will likely be
dropped just where 1t is.
The matter of the Cromwell street
grade was referred to Mr.. McKelvey
and the Engineer.
The next matter was the question of
opening up South Jacob street, through
Filan. White & Gallagher's addition.
The proposition was discussed for
some time, and was finally referred to
she Solicitor.
When the question of establishing a
grade for Nineteenth street, from alley
b 10 Woods street, came up, Engineer
White said the 3. p. W. had already
ordered the curb. 1t was referred
finally to the Solicitor and Engineer
Tor report.
