Alcohol as an Aid TO Chess PLAYERS,

From the Chicago Chronicle.
The foremost English chess player,
J. II. Blackburne has delivered strong
opinion declaring the value of whiskey
as stimulant to a player. He said in
an interview: II do not know a single
chess master who has sported the blue
ribbon. l find whiskey is most bene-
fetal as stimulus to mental activity.
especially when one is engaged in
stir, prolonged struggle. All chess
masters indulge moderately in wines
and spirits. I have met them in all
parts of the world. Speaking for nv
self, alcohol clears my brain. ALWAYS
take a glass or two when playing.

STARTLES THE PlCkANiNNY.
Phebe Ann Greatly Worried Over Nov
ing Trees and Houses in Georgia.

From the Chicago Chronicle
She is only a little black pickaninny
who lives down in Georgia. She is
under a dozen years in age and until a
short time ago had spent all of her life
on a rural plantation. Trains and their
attendant movements were utterly IN
known. Indeed, what Phebe Ann knew
of anything outside of that plantation
would not make the beginning of a
primer. She was being educated for a
house servant, and hence was not per-
mitted to roam to any great extent.
She was busy about the big house all
day and at night retired to the shack
set apart for her family.
Along in the season, for some good
reason, 1t became necessary for the
family to move into city. The little
negro girl was wanted, for she had
much skill in soothing the childish woes
of the heir to the estates. So it was
decided that she must accompany the
expedition. From the time she entered
the carriage to ride to the railway sta
ton Phebe Ann was in a state of sup
pressed excitement. She sat beside
Miss Amy" as she called her mistress,
and with staring eyes took in all that
passed without comment.
When she was taken into the train
her wonderment was amusing. She sat
gingerly on the cushions, looked out of
the window and generally seemed I'M
certain concerning the possibilities of
the future. She was silent until the
train commenced TO move. Then her
fear took shape. She saw the land
scape passing rapidly before her and
her eyes filled, her lip quivered and she
snuffled audibly.
whats the matter, Phebe Ann?"
asked her mistress.
"Oh, Miss Amy" walled the pickan-
inny, "whah all dem houses and trees
agoing at?"
A seat on the floor was the only
means possible to quiet the fears of
the child.

COAL DUST FUEL BRICKS.
Problem of Their Manufacture Said to Be
Solved at Last.

Solved at Last.
From the Chicago Chronicle.
Millions of tons of coal dust hitherto
DENIED little better than waste, are to
be reclaimed as fuel through the me-
soon to be manufactured by a concern
recently incorporated as the Briquette
Coal company. The crumbling atoms
of bitumen and anthracite are to be
packed together in miniature bricks.
A factory plant has already been con-
structed at Morgan and Thirty eighth
streets. Gardner Cording, a Chicago
man, is the inventor of the formula
Mr.. Corning will not divulge the con-
stituent elements Of the composition,
which he says will assimilate with the
coal dust
He asserts that the use of pitch will
Fake the artificial cakes give out more
heat and be less productive of smoke
than the most valuable species of hard
coal. This has been a veXatious prob
lem," said Mr.. Corning, but I think
we have solved it. The combination
which we have prepared will burn
without smoke and will consequently
create much higher temperature. For
marine purposes, where the storing
capacity is limited. l believe that .bri-
quettes will be found invaluabl A
system of utilizing coal dust similar to
ours was begun in Germany last year,
and 20,000,000 tons of the stuff We're dis
posed of. Though the foreign prepara-
ton does not come up to ours. it is sold
much higher than coal as we ordinarily
see it. Our 'briquettes' are as dense as
anthracite
