State House Will Hereafter Be
Visible From Kansas Avenue.
Black Clouds of SCOT No Longer
Begrime the Walls.
IMPROVE SERVICE.
Change Will Save State More
Than Cost of Improvements.
News From the Capitol and
State Departments.

People will hereafter have a clear
view of the state house, for a long
needed improvement to dispense with the
smoke has been made. 1t is explained
that the clouds of flying SCOT from the
state house chimneys have battered the
flag to pieces. Smoke consumers are
being attached to the boilers and the
mass of black smoke and SCOT which
has been pouring out of the furnaces
will hereafter be volume of white
vapor, free from these properties.
The walls of the state house resemble
those of the old-fashioned smokehouse.
They are soot-begrimed and blackened
and the capitol looks as though it had
ben standing for more than century.
But the improvement which is soon to
be added will remove all these defacing
elements.
A. H. Mooney, the engineer at the
state house, is now at work preparing
to attach the smoke consumer to the
boilers. When this done the SCOT will
be turned back into the fires, the car
bon burned off and the smoke reduced
to thin, white vapor which will then
be carried off through the chimneys and
stacks. There are ten boilers in the
building, but by changes in the interest
OF economy which Engineer Mooney is
making, the number in use will be re-
duced to eight. to which the smoke
consumers will be attached.
This change in the boiler capacity will
save the state seventy tons of coal per
month.
Then there is another improvement
which the engineer is completing. This
will convert the exhaust steam to water
returning it through the pipes to the
boilers. to again pass through the pipes
for heating the building. This will re-
move the waste of steam and fuel too,
which comes from permitting the steam
to escape directly through the exhaust
The new method of handling it is
brought about by the use of condensers.
The use of the smoke consumers will
save, at the least calculation. 10 per
cent in the amount of fuel consumed
by the boilers. The smoke consumers
were provided for in an appropriation
of 1000 by the legislature and within
ten days they will be attached to the
boilers and ready for use. Those which
will be in use this summer are being
put on the boilers which are used to
operate the electric light plant in the
building.
