1t is said that where no hydrocarbons
exist smoke cannot be produced by any
fuel. Recent experiments made in the
laboratories of Sibley college showed
from ten to twelve pounds of SCOT in the
smoke generated by the consumption of
a ton of coal. OF this SCOT, about one
half was carbon, the remainder princi-
pally unconsumed hydrocarbons, ten to
fifteen yer cent. ash, and, outside the
furnace, perhaps two per cent. of moist
ure. No smoke was produced in an at
mosphere of oxygen. Low temperature
combustion and restricted oxygen sup
ply appear to favor smoke production.
The composition of SCOT was nearly the
same as that of the coal from which it
was produced.

We felt that he was entitled to his
promotion, and he got it. We did not
know his politics, nor did we care about
them. 1t was very unlikely that the
woman whom he last saved, as he swan
out towards her, felt any special inter
est as to whether he had voted for
Cleveland or Harrison; nor did we.
He had risked his life freely again and
again to the performance of his duty;
he had conducted himself so as to be a
credit to the department, and credit
to the city; and we felt that he was en-
titled to his reward.
1t is worth while mentioning that
he kept on saving life after he was pro-
NOTED to a sergeantCy. On October 21,
1896, he again saved man from drown
ing. 1t was at night. Nobody else
was in the neighborhOOd, and the slip
from which he jumped was in abso-
Lutte darkness, and he was about ten
minutes in the water, which was very
cold. The captain of the precinct, in
reporting the case, said: THE sergeant
was off the bulkhead and into the wa
ter after his man quicker than it takes
to say Jack Robinson There was no
way in which the board could reward
him for this, except by telling him that
he was an honor to the department;
for he had been given all the medals,
and bars to the medals, that he could
be given. 1t was the twenty-ninth per-
son whose life he had saved during his
20 years service in the department. and
he was So years old when he saved
him.

HAS SAVED MANY LIVES.
New York Policeman Promoted
for Signal Gallantry'.
At Peril of His own Life He Rescued
Twenty-Five Persons from Al
most Certain Death A
TruIy Proud Record.

In the Century there is an article by
Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, entitled THE
Roll of Honor of the New York Police"
In speaking of promotions for gallan-
try, Mr.. Roosevelt says:
Among the first promotions we made
were two which illustrated the atti-
tude of the board toward cases of this
kind, and which also incidentally illus
trated exactly what we mean by "tak-
ing the force out of politics" that is,
by administering it on principles of
decency, and appointing and promoting
men on their merits, without regard
to their political backing. The first
case was that of an old fellow, a vete-
ran of the civil war, who was at the
time a roundsman. l happened to no.
tice one day that he had saved a wom-
an from drowning, and had him sum-
moned so that might look into the
matter. The old fellow brought up his
record before me, and showed not a
little nervousness and agitation; for it
appeared that he had grown gray in
the service, had performed feat after
feat of heroism, but had no political
backing of any account. He was a
grand army man, but not one of the
political" type, and so had not re-
ccived any attention from the former
police boards; and now, at last, he
thought there was chance for him.
He had been 90 years on the force,
and during that time had saved some
rs persons from death by drowning,
varying the performance once or twice
by saving persons from burning build
ings. Twice congress had passed laws
especially to empower the then secre-
tary of the treasury, John Sherman, to
give him medal for distinguished gal
lantry in saving life. The Life Saving
society had also given him its medal,
and so had the police department. On
examining into his record carefully, we
found that he was wholly free from
complaints of any infraction of duty,
and that he was sober and trustworthy.

BILL BOARD NUISANCE.

A recent happening in st. Louis
serves to call aiteatisn TO what is
rapidly becoming a great public NUS.
ance. Less than year ago the city OF
St. Louis was stricken with a tornado,
and in addition to the immense loss OF
life the property damage ran into tie
millions. Ever since that destructive
storm citizens OF St Louis have natu-
rally been nervous and easily frightened
by storms. A few days since, the ad-
vance agent Of q theatrical attraction
called The Tornado" caused to be dis
tributed all over st. Louis posters bear
ing the black flag OF the signal service
bureau and announcing that "Anoiher
tornado is coming" As result there
was q panic in the schools and many
nervous citizens we're badly frightened.
The police were ordered to tear down
the offending posters and those who
put them up will be prosecuted.
While the bill board is an effective
way Of advertising it is a fact that it is
beconing a public nuisance in many
ways. Pictures that are positively lewd
and indecent. are spread out upon the
bill boarde, and the result is lad effect
upon public morality. So great has
become this evil that many cities have
passed ordinances regulating the post
ing Of posters and bills, and while ultra,
liberals may denounce the action as in
reference with personal liberty the
moral elements Of the city are in gym
pathy with the movement. From an
artistic standpoint the changes in the
theatrical posters has been along the
lines OF advancement, but it is also true
that from a moral standpoint the change
has been for the worse. The moral drift
Of the poster is still downward and
public policy demands that there be a
