Fish Found ON Land.

A very curious species of fish which
lives on dry land for ten months in the
year was recently discovered by Or.
Suard in the Moro district Of the French
Soudan, some 500 miles from the coast.
This fish belongs to the family Of ST.
luri, and very much resembles the,
Clarias. 1t lives in the marshes which
are formed during the two months of.
rainy season in that zone, and after
TINT time it hides in holes in the

CHEMICAL FIRE ENGINES.
They Have Done Much to Reduce the Loss

They Have Done Much to Reduce the Loss
From Water at Fires.
Mr.. Charles T. Hill writes of 1.-THE
Fire Patrol" in st Nicholas, the final
paper in his series on the New York fire
department Mr. Hill says:
The chemical engine" used consid-
erably in the fire departments of several
cities, has aided materially in lowering
the loss by water at small fires The
preparation carried in the tanks of these
engines has double acknowledgement
only does it extinguish large body of
fire with the use Of a small amount of
water but the liquid itself evaporates
quickly, leaving very little drip" in
the apartments or floors underneath the
fire.
The tanks of these engines are charg-
ed with solution of bicarbonate of So
da (baking soda) and water. with
small cylinder of sulphuric acid sus-
pended at the top When the tank is in
verified, this acid is emptied into the
soda and water. and the mixture at
once generates carbonic acid gas at
great pressure. Charging the liquid
with this gas gives it the necessary pres
sure to drive it considerable distance.
The hose is coiled around reel on top
OF the engine. and always connected
with the tanks, so when the firemen ar
rive at fire all they have to do is to
run off as much hose as they need, dash
up stairs with the line, give the order
to dump" one of the tanks (there are
two, carrying 60 gallons each), and they
are all ready to go to work. The chem
ical engine has extinguished more than
25 fires of considerable size since it has
been in service in the New York depart
ment, little over year 1t is station
ed on the upper west side of the city,
where there are a great number of
dwellings and flats, and it has aided
materially in keeping down the fire

COAL AND IRON.
Ths Important Relationship Of These Two
Valuable Minerals.


Statistics show that. whereas Great
Britain in 1910 produced 20 per cent of
the worlds supply of coal, at the pres
ent time il produces only "a per cent
Atlantic liners no longer carry coal
from Great Britain for the return jour
ney They now take in American coal,
and no less than 10000 tons of
American coal were thus consumed in
1895 The condition of the iron manu-
featuring industries has always exer-
cised most important influence OH the
production of coal. so that large de-
mand for iron draws with it a large de-
mand for mineral fuel During the last
20 years the worlds production OF pig
iron has increased from H. 900, 900 to
26, 900, 900 tons, but the share taken by
Great Britain has fallen from AS 3 per
cent TO 30 per cent, while that of the
United States has increased from IA. l
per cent TO 26. per cent, that of Ger
many from la per cent to 2l.4 per
cent, and that of Russia from per cent
to 4. per cent. Indeed. iron is now be-
ing imported from the United States
into this country, and, incredible as it
may seem, the railway station at Mid
dlesbrough, the center of the iron trade.
is built of iron brought from Belgium.
Surely, then, the author of "Our Coal
Resources at the Close of the Nine
teenth Century" is hardly right in
thinking that British coal and iron still
hold their own. He argues that other
countries of Europe are exhausting their
coal supplies just as Great Britain is,
yet the figures he gives show that Ger
many has in reserve, within depth of
5000 feet, 100, 900, 600, 900 tons of coal
