WASTED POWER.
Plans Formulated Many Years AGE
for Using Wasted Gases of
DInat Furnaces.

We have in the blast furnace two
sources of power at present more or
less wasted, namely, the surplus store
OF gases going TO waste in the atmos.
phere, after the needs Of the furnaces
have been supplied, and the imperfect
utilization of those now burnt under
boilers, when power might be gen.
Grated from them by direct combustion
in gas engine, says the Engineering
Magazine. The usual standard Of
working blast furnaces is about one
ton of coke burnt per ton OF iron
made. From 100000 to 10000 cubic
feet of high-furnace gases are pro-
duced per ton Of iron smelted, or per
ton of fuel burnt. Assuming that 10,-
100000 tons of fuel are brunt annu-
ally in blast furnaces in Great Britain,
this gives about 100000 horse power
wasted, which might be converted into
useful work, especially for the produc-
ton Of electric energy. We have only
to consider the immense output of pig
iron per day from the high furnaces in
England, the United States and the
continent, to see how vast a store OF po-
tential energy is at present un-
touched.
The successive steps in utilizing
blast furnace gases may be thus sum
married.. Thirty years ago they were
considered of no value, and were often
burnt off at the mouth of the furnaces.
They were next partially used by re-
tanning a portion TO heat the air for the
blast and burning larger proportion
under boilers to generate steam for
driving the blowing engines. No at
tempt was made to burn thr gases eco
nomically, and considerable quantity
was wasted. In 1894 attempts were
made in Scotland, at Wishaw, near
Glasgow; at Seraing, in Belgium, and
at Horde, in Germany, to explode them
in an engine cylinder, in the same way
as producer gas, instead of under boil
ers. Complete success attended these
pioneer efforts. 1t was found that,
when thus utilized, the quantity re-
quired was only one-ffth of that
needed when burnt under the old
system, and this discovery has been
very fruitful of good results, especial
ly in Germany and Belgium, where the
subject has till now attracted much
more attention than in England.

THE FINGER PURSE.
Adaptation to the Needs of Women
of a Coin Holder for
Men.

"Yes," said the artist in leather
goods, looking lovingly at finger
purse he held in his hand, says the
New York Sun, "it is a beauty and
$4 is a small price for it. It's the
latest thing in finger purses. Curious,
isn't it, how that particular kind of
purse came into favor. 1t wasn't an
invention, you know, simply an adapA
tation. We have had finger purses
in this shop for 40 years, but we
didn't call them finger purses, though.
You've seen men use them hundred
times.
"That's the original of the finger
purse" he continued taking from
the show case leather purse similar
to the one he held in his hand, but
smaller. "This is what men have
been using. The English form of it,
from which probably we borrowed
ours, is called a buckslin. The buck
skin has no strap by which to hold
it, though Now, just trace the evolu-
ton of the finger purse. 1t was
adopted in the first place from Eng
land, and in our edition of it was fur
nished with a strap. The mans
purse, you see, has no pocket in the
back, and the compartment in the
inside is without a gusset, see? 1t is
stitched close to the back. The idea
was to use it only for silver. The

the flap down. but one day some
absent-minded woman, playing with
one of these purses, slipped the strap
over her forefinger, saw the conven-
ienec of it and straightway turned
an accidental discovery into a fad.
AT first women had to take mems
purses as they found them. A woman
can't resist the temptation of stufiing
her pocketbook with all sorts of
things. She puts her cards into it
first, then slips in the address that
her friend gives her in the street.
She must have in it, too, the bill she
is going to pay that morning, and
where is she going to put the half
dozen samples. she has culled out OF
the stores as the result of morn
ing's work, if not in her poeketbook
The finger purse was not adapted to
such usage. so gussets were put in to
allow stretching room for the COM
partments. The next improvement
was made this year. Manufacturers
saw that a coin pocket inside. shut
ting with a clasp, would render the
little purse much more practical. and
now almost any finger purse you see
has that pocket

LORD WOLSELEY SCORED.
Attacks British Military System and
Gets Warm Reply From Lord
LnnsdoWne.

London, March AIN the House OF Lords
to-day Lord Wolse!ey vigorously attacked
the British military system. The COM
mander-in-chief, he said, was robbed OF
his usefulness. The ommander-in-chief
could only bring strongly the wants of the
army to the Secretary OF State After
that he cou,d do no more.
1T behooves Parliament" he said. ito

tween the experts and the economists
Great national risks are accepted because
politically inexpedient to ask Parliament
for money"
He doubted much II they would ever
have contented army. 1t was an un-
workable and impossible system.
The Marquis OF Lansdowne the former
war minister, replied to Lord Wolseley
Immediately. He said he was constrained
to say that Lord Wolseley while com
mander-in-chef had failed to understand
his duties. He might at least have warn
ed the government that one army corps
was not sufficient to crush the Beers. He
might have told the government before
the South African war that Ladysmith
was not a suitable military station. He
might have prepared schemes for deren-
sive and offensive operations. The mis-
takes and failures in South Africa were
not owing to the system, but to the fact
that II had not been carried out as faith
fully as II might have been.
Lord Landsdowne asserted that ord
Wolseley regarded one army corps as suf-
fcent to cope with the Boe.s This
caused sharp discussion.

said:
when I deft Gen. Delarey the Beers
had p, 900 men in the field and sufficient
small arm ammunition to last four years.

gram from Col. Dubois, dated Paris, say

not entail the surrender of the other

won't live twelve hours. He will get such
a swift injection of lead that he won't

Mr.. King said that the British ill-treat-
ed the BOer women. He described several
occasions on which American allies of the
Beers, dressed in khaki, entered the Brit
ish lines of Johannesburg, and other
