De Boisdeffre could not remain an hour at
the head of the staff, whereas Germans
ought to wish to have him stay there as
long as possible"

Fraudulent Bond Bidders Will Be Let
Down hasy.

WASHINGTON. Sept. At was an
nounced at the Treasury Department to-
day that there would be no prosecutions as
the outcome of the recent investigation of
the manner in which several thousand
bonds were subscribed for in New York
city. Secretary Gage had conferences to-
day with some of those involved in the
scheme for securing these subscriptions
wholesale. AS a result, ia all cases where
the bonds were subscribed for in an i'm
proper way the bonds will not be issued,
but an arrangement was perfected by which
bona fide bids forwarded by a bank or other
means will be accepted. This course was
decided on in order that those not guilty of
improper conduct should not suffer on ac-
count of the bids obtained in other ways
but forwarded through the same channel.

Comb Dust Firing.

Fine dust of coal or of flour mixed
with air forms an explosive agent
which has been the cause of many a
mine and fiour-mill disaster. Advan
tage is taken of this property of COM
bustible dust in new process of boil
er-firing. The fuel reduced to dust is
fed by machinery into the furnace in
which fire must constantly be main
tanned. The instant the dust falls into
the furnace chamber it burns with a
flash, almost explosively, and the pro-
duction of smoke is absolutely pre-
vented and the firing becomes econom
ical as regards consumption Of fuel. 1t
would seem that it might lead to the
utilization of the enormous mountains
Of coal slack which cover so many

WOE OF PARIS.

Half an hour after an automobile has
passed traces OF petroleum linger in
the air. The beauty of 1t is that the
drivers of the vehicles cannot smell
tit infiets itself only on the passers-
by.
Parisians say that their beloved city
is being ruined by the automobile fad,
which is ten times worse than the
bicycling fever ever dared to be. Luck
lily there are not so many automobiles
as bicycles, for they are expensive.
The sights, sounds and smells result
ing from the carriages propelled by
petroleum are driving people from the
boulevards.
Some stunning toilets are to be seen
on the pretty women who have desert
ed their bicycles for the automobiles.
Sometimes the carriages are upholster-
ed to match madames favorite gown
in gray or crimson broadcloth, with
parasol tops and soft cushions for
dainty shoes. The fact that she has
to guide her carriage successfully be-
fore a critical Judge, who passes on
her proficiency in the art before she
can get a license to wheel wherever
she will, has no effect on madame's
determination to join the merry throng
on the boulevards.
