Oil As Fuel For Steamers.

Within the past few months num-
Der of experiments have been conduct
ed to learn the value of oil as fuel for
steamers. The results so far have been
very successful. The government is
giving the subject careful consideration
and intends to pursue its Investigations
most thoroughly.
A small launch, using kerosene, has
successfully crossed the Atlantic, while
the captain of a steamer that arrived in
san Francisco last week using oil re-
ports having gained day on his regu-
lar run. Coming at this time, when
coal is SO expensive, these facts are very
opportune. If oil may be used instead
of coal on big vessels it means a saving
Of thousands of dollars yearly.
With the great supply of Oil recently
discovered in various sections of this
country the price is not likely to in
crease to any exorbitant figure. On the
other hand, the decrease in the demand
for coal is apt to have the effect of bring
ing the price of that commodity down
to reasonable amount.-Boston Globe.

Senator Frye Not Engaged.
Especial to the Boston Globe.

WAsHINGToN, AUG. 20. The reported
engagement OF Senator William ?. Frye
to Mrs. Ellen May of Portland, Me-, is
authoritatively denied here today by
William FryeWhite, the senator's grand
son. Announcement of the engage
ment was published in various newspap-
ers this morning.
Mr. White said that while he had not
been authorized by Senator Frye to
brand the engagement story as false,
he knew that Mr.. Frye was not engaged
to Mrs. May.
In discussing the story, Mr. White
said that undoubtedly the rumor gained
currency because Mrs, May was among
a party of guests which Senator Frye
took on an extended fishing trip in New
England last summer.
Mrs. May is the daughter of the late
Ellery May. She has travelled extern
sively and has spent several winters in
Washington, where she is we'll known
among members of the New England
colony.

rett was taking the gun from the wagon
one of the hammers caught in some
manner on the seat rail causing the gun
to be discharged, the whole charge
striking Mrs. Starrett in the back. The
first that Mr.. Starrett knew of what
had happened was when he heard his
wife say Oh! and on Immediately look
ing around he found her still standing

to the ground. Upon reaching her he
asked his wife if she was hurt, but she
could not speak and soon expired.

Into still air they seem to fleet.
