The meeting of the Republican state
Committee which was held In trenton
Yesterday; was more remarkable for what
II did not do than for what it did. Fear
that it should take any action which
would not meet with the approval OF Gen
eral sswell when he returns from Europe
On Saturday. seems to have possessed the
members. and they adjourned without do
ing anything beyond fixing the date for
the Convention. As set forth in the news
columns of s.The Jersey City News" even
that action would probably not have been
taken if the Opera House could nave
been secured for any other day in the last
two weeks of September.
Perhaps the most noticeable thing about
the gathering was the entire lack OF en-
thusiasm over the party's prospects of
success In November. Almost every ore
present who could feel assured that his
confidence would not be abused. ex-
pressed the opinion that the nomination

cepted as a. foregone conclusion, wouii

possible for the party to win the race
outwardly, they talked Murphy with a
stimulation of zsst, but 1t lacked the clear,
true ring Of the pure metal and placed
the committee in the light of making the
best of a very bad situation.
In short it was the gloomiest gathering
of the Republican leaders which has been
heid since the election of John W. Griggs
in 1895. The usual cocksureness which
the Republicans have always manifested
at the, last few meetings prior to a GU
bernatorlal election was sadly lacking,
and one could not shake off the feeling
that ARRANGEMENTS were being made for
what Governor Voorhees, calls rhe
s.funeral obsequies" of the party.
The absence of Major Carl Lentz and
the Essex committeeman who takes his
political inspirations from him, was ail-
other significant feature of yesterday s
gathering. 1t was taken on all hands 10
mean that Notwithstanding the seeming
positiveness of Mr.. Murphy's nomination,
Major Lentx had not given up the fight
sgsirlst the Newark man and proposed to
keep 1t up. to the bitter end. On the
whole. the meeting was a decidedly dis
heartening affair for the average Republi-

Among the strange and: hazardous

men have devised perhaps there is.
none more unusual and curious than
that followed by M. Courtol, an official
viper killer in the prefecture Of Haute,
Loire, France. M. Courtol has grown.
gray as well as expert in this peculiar
service. 1t is estimated that, he kills
on an average Of 5000 vipers year.
His remuneration is cents a head for
each one slain, and he manages, toe
make quite comfortable living. out
of his unique and dangerous employ
ment. When about the work he may
be seen attired in a hunters, suit,
made of the skins of the snakes he
has captured. His evening dress and!
court attire is also cut out Of the.
snakes skins, and is patterned after
the style Of Louis: XIV. His head is
crowned with a gorgeous cap, FASH

Very few people realize how import

of disease. Although not generally rec
ognized, this is one of the principal
reasons why country life is more
healthful than city life. The proper
tionate excess Of disease in cities is-
not all due to defective dwellings and.
imperfect nutrition, although they are
grave contributing causes It is the:
3 ceaseless roar and din of a large city
that slowly but surely undermfnes the
health. Apart from its baneful eff
fects upon the sense of hearing itself,
the ceaseless Babel of discordant
sounds peculiar to large cities exerts

In London the city government has
recently taken steps to suppress the
last-named nuisance-a proceeding
which might be followed with advant-

the above reflections by the discharges
of crackers that characterize the arri-

at the risk of being considered defic-

question whether a nation like the,
American, which leads the world in So
many important matters, could not

expressing its jubilation than by din
of discordant sound emanating from
fireworks, horns and steam: whistles?~
The lower we descend in the scale OF
humanity, the greater we find the,

from this standpoint, the present
means employed in the celebration Of

LIQUID FUEL EXPERIMENTS.
Two Very Serious Objections to the Use

Two Very Serious Objections to the, Use
of Oil.
A subject: which is always Of inter
est in connection with all marine ma
chinery is the use of liquid fuel. It's =
obvious advantages in the way of con-
venience Of storage and rapidity of re-
ceipt are in its favor, while the much
higher calorific value than that of coal
and the close fire regulation possible,
as we'll as the Immediate effect of it's
combustion, would all commend it very
highly. Experiments have been made
in many countries to determine it's
adaptability, and some very interest
ing experiments made in Italy about
1892 showed that common opinion is
erroneous, namely, that the use OF
steam for. spraying the oil would be-,
:inadmissible on account Of the large
amount required The Italian. expert.
ments showed that a high efficiency in.
the use of oil could be obtained with
an expenditure of less than 2 per cent
of the amount of water vaporized. 'This=,
would be the simplest way .to secure.
the spraying of the oil,,.> as IT T. would
do away with the Somewhat compli-a
Gated machinery needed for, compress
ing air if that were used. There: are
two very serious objections, however,
to- the use Of oil. One isfahat there
are relatively few places where fuel.
oil could at present be obtained, along
with, the fact, that any extensive de-
mand: would probably raise the price,
go as to: make make it more expensive than:
coal, The second objection, however
is the more. serious one, namely, that
thus far it has been found impossible
with liquid fuel to: obtain as great an
amount of power from a given boiler
as when good. coal is used National.
