IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT.
Twenty-Five Per Cent Saving In Cost Of
Fuel for Mining.

! he most important Improvement IN re.
cent wears IN connection with the mining
industry IN the vest Is now being made
at the Penrosr, one Of the Home Mining
company's properties of Leadville, Colo,
according to the Mining Record. The i'm.
portanCe Of II will be appreciated when II
/ is known that the cost OF iuel is TO be re.
duced s5 per cent, and probably a great
deal mole. The arrangement Is for the
burning oi hydrocarbon gas, which Is pro.
du, ed from petroleum. The process is Of
recent discovery, having been used for the
first time not more than two years ago.
The Home Mining company Is the first In
the west TO avail itself Of the use Of the
uew discovery. The process Of producing
the gas j. extremely simple aud perfectly
safe. The gas Is not explosive, burns
with white heat, and h. odorlesS.
The iuel gas is produced by pumping
air through heated petroleum, which car.
ries with II one part of hydrotarbon gas to
niue parts Of air, and the reduced cost Is
due 10 the newly discovered fact that the
oxygen, which, united With this small
quantity oi gas, burns with an intense
heat. Common air, W the oxygen IN u,
which comprises eight.nin,hs OF II, Is used
rs fuel, becoming highly cOmbustible
when mixed with the gas. Al the Pen.

A Massachusetts View of Mr.. Prouty.
The new England Homestead of
Springfield, Mass, has this to say
about Charles A. Prouty, who is a
candidate for United States Senator
from Vermont
"The Vermont legislature which
meets next OttO6"r will have to elect
United States senator. The rtAte
being overwhelmingly republican, The
contest will not be in any sense a
party one, and therefore the ba~t man
in the state should he elected. The
only candidate thus far suggest ID
who is of national stature is Charles
A. Prouty. This mans work HIS
member of the interstate commission
since 1896 demonstrates his large
ability, great energy, incorrup'ible
Integrity and earnpstness of purpose
for the public welfare. Mr.. Prouty
is not politician, although he has
had good deal of periencp in pub
lie affairs both ia and outside the
state, but he has achieved national
reputation as level-headed author
ity on the whole transportation qneS-
ton. Upon the proper solution Of
this question largely depend content
ment and prosperity in future. Mr..
Prouty's experiences qualities him to
perform far greater service 10 the
United States Senate for the whole
people than would be possible for
any other man to do. He would
maintain the reputation and iDhu-
ence of Vermont at the high standard
established by the late Senator Nor
rill or ex-senator Edmunds. Ameri-
can agriculture needs man in the
Senate who will fight for its interests
and the welfare OF the whole people.
And it is gratifying to know that the
farmers of Vermont are disposed to
do all they can to send Mr.. Prouty to
the Senate"

The treaty just signed, between the
United States and Great Britain,
provides that the Nicaraguan Canal
shall be constructed by the United
States and remain under it's control,
but shall be open to all nations in
peace or war under certain restric-
tions and rules which shall apply
alike to the ships of all nations.
The treaty also provides that the
United States may maintain a police
force sufficient to enforce it's regula-
tiOns, but no Notifications shall be
constructed at the entrance to the
canal or along the route. This pro-
hibition arOuses enough opposition
to possibly cause some delay in the
sanction OF the treaty by the Senate
but not enough to prevent favorable
action. 1t will not be long before
the Nicaraguan Canal will be to the
Western Hemisphere what the Suez
Canal is to the Eastern.

The jury in the case of Roland B.
Molineux, charged with the murder
of Mrs. Kate Adams, brought in a
verdict of guilty at II O'Clock Satur-
day night, after celebrating for
eight hours.
The California Republicans have
not only elected United States SEN
ator, but they have shown encourag-
ing unanimity in making the selec-
ton. The long deadlock OF the Leg
islature in that state a year ago
stirred up very bitter feelings, but
the several factions have decided to
bury the Ratchet. This is wise de-
cision, especially in a presidential
year.
The total amount of mortgages on
Nebraska farms was reduced by near
ly 100000 last year, owing to
the prosperity which the state en-
joyed. Yet these are the same peo-
pie who only last fall showed at the
polls their determination to stand by
the cheap money idea and the cheap
money candidate. Their own expe-
rience should have taught them the
Righteousness of the cheap money
crowds arguments.
The fire loss in this country is
mounting up at a most alarming
rate. The figures for January are
given at $11, 300. For the same
month in 1899 they were $10,71S,-
900, and in 1898 50, 482,500. Pros
serity prevails everywhere through
the United States. But large per-
centage must be knocked off the prof
it's as long as we are so recklessly
adding to the ash heap.
Practically the full force intended
for the Philippines is now in the is
lands, the number of soldiers account
ed for by General Otis on the first of
the month being SO F22 officers and
men. And now that they are all
there the next move will be to bring
them back home again. Judging
from the reports of the situation re-
Gently received, so large force will
not be needed long.
Roger @, Mills declares that he is
not candidate for governor of Tex
as and would not take the job if ap-
pealed to by every man, woman and
child in the state. Mills evidently is
not anxious to break into politics
once more, business life being far too
congenial to be abandoned reckless
ly. Now that he is busy making him
self a millionaire he cannot be much
in sympathy with the party which in
Weighs so loudly against wealth.

1t looks as though the Beers had
become tired of remaining on the de.

come the aggressors. If they have
reached any such decision they may
regret it later on. Itseems generally
agreed that the British have been mt
a great disadvantage because OF
having to attack fortified positions,
but if the Beers take the offensive
they must prepare to submit to this
same disadvantage, only slightly
modified by the superior mobility oil

Fit the Food to the Physical Task

Feats of strength require a diet in
accordance with the needs-that is.
prolonged or otherwise. If you want
to perform for short time the great
est possible amount of muscular labor,
as in playing a game of ball, rowing,
running, bicycling, lifting or accom-
plishing any unusual feat of strength
requiring an extraordinary effort, al
ways select diet rich in protein. If,
on the other hand, you want to take
n great amount of steady exercise dali
ly, or perform a great amount Of uni
formly heavy work every day, but at
no time of n very intense character,
you should partake of a diet containing
little protein, but rich in carbohydrates
that is, starches and fats.-Ladies'
