The Iola register., 1902-02-14

Nadia understood what Michael Stro-
goff wished to attempt. She saw one
of those blocks of ice that was only
held by narrow tongue.
"Come," said Nadia.
And both lay down on this morsel of
ice, which slight rocking loosened
from the barrier.
The block began to make its way
down the river The river itself be-
came wider, and the route was free.
Michael Strogoff and Nadia could
hear the firing of guns, the cries Of dis
tress, the shouts of the Tartars that
made themselves heard up the river.
Then little by little those cries of deep
anguish and of ferocious joy were lost
in the distance.
ooh, those poor companlonsr' whis-
pered Nadia.
For half an hour the current quickly
was bearing Michael Strogoff and Ma
dia. At every moment they feared that
they might sink under the water. Be
ing caught in the stream, 1t followed
the middle of the river, and it would
not be necessary to give 1t an oblique
direction until there was quesuon of
making for the quays of Irkutsk
Michael Strogoff, with his teeth set
and his ears ready to catch the least
sound, did not utter single word.
Never was he so near attaining his
end. He felt that he was about to sue
ceed.
Toward o'clock in the morning a
double row OF lights lit up the somber
horizon on the two banks Of the An.
CARA.
On the right was the glare from tho
| lights of Irkutsk, on the left the fires
of the Tartar camp.
Michael Strogof was not more than
half verst from the city.
"At last!" whispered he.
But suddenly Nadia gave cry.
At that cry Michael Strogoff rose W
from the block, which became very un
steady. His hand stretched out toward
the head OF the Angara. His face, al
lit up with the reflections of blue lights
became terrible to look at, and then, as
though his eyes had been reopened tC
the light. he cried:
"Ah, God himself is against us"'

New KindlOf Gas


1t is claimed that in the very near
future the ocean trip toiEurope will be
made in four days without rcoal, and
at half the present expense of fuel to
drive the ocean steamer. This is to be
made possible by the utilization of
new process of burningla little petrol
cum with s5:per cent oi:red-hot com
pressed air.
A little discovery,lwhich has been
patented is alleged to have solved the
problem of making non-eXplosive gas
out of petroleum and:air, which burns
| like oxygen, and which a child can use
and control without the slightest dam
ger of explosion or suffocation. This
new process is the discovery of an
eastern engineer, and by it common
kerosene :oil or "a fine distilliate is
mixed with compressedihot air, form
ing a gas. Just as thislgas enters the
firebox of the engine, Through small
pipes inclosed within otherlpipes pas
sing over gas jets, it becomes so hot
that every trace of moisture is expell-
ed, and at that instant it becomes dry
gas, which will not explode.
Thisis the gas that. bursts into flame
as it flows from thousands of little
needle points in the pipes lying in the
furnace CRATE. Such fierce heat is
generated that water is converted into
steam almost instantly o. 1t is claimed
that by this news process a full head
of gas maybe iurned.into red hot
furnace and there will.be no explosion;
that it is a dry, non-explosive gas,
having power enough to run the heav-
lest machinery,I Iyet as harmless as
water.
1t is understood that a naval engi-
neer detailed by he:United States gov
ernment is now looking into theclaims
put forward in behalf of thisinew pro-
cess. Without an Iaosolute veritica.
tion of these claims it is difficult to be-
lieve all the statements made about
the process. In.sa recent experiment
made with crudespetroleum, l,S00 gal
Ions we're required to.run the loeomo-
tive and train $40 miles, but by this

pended,
Pending afull investigation of the
claims ut:forward, it Is impossible
to dogmatize regarding the matter OF
ocean steamers using this or that pro-
cess in the utilization of oil as fuel,
To oil men it is sufficiently gratifying
to know that ocean steamers are being
equipped to burn crude oil, and doubt
less if this new process is all that it is
claimed to be, it will be generally
adopted In any case it necessitates
no great expense in altering the fire
boxes, andsthose used for the crude
oil, with very small change, will an

burning dry gas.-Los Angeles Times.

Zinc Shelter For Pueblo.

A dispatch from Pueblo, Lolorado,

chased by the UNITED States Zinc

Tomsk; on the other. the rapidlty with
which the works of defense had been
carried on by the grand duke. For
these two reasons his projects had fail
ed. He found himself therefore under
the necessity of carrying on a regular
siege.
Meanwhile by his advice the emir at
tempted twice to take the town at the
price of a great sacrifice of men. He
threw the soldiers against the earth
works which seemed to present some
weak points. but the two assaults were
repelled with the greatest courage. The
grand duke and his officers did not
spare themselves on that occasion.
They led the civil population to the
rarnparts. Civilians and mujiks did
their duty remarkably well. At the
second assault the Tartars had succeed
ed in forcing one of the gates of the
town. A fight took place at the be-
ginning of the principal street, the Boil
chaia, which is two versts in length
and terminates at the banks of the An
CARA. But the Cossacks, the gendarmes
and the citizens opposed to them a
strong resistance, and the Tartars had
to return to their positions.
Ivan Ogareff thought then of trying
to win by treachery what force could
not give him. His project, 1t Is known,
was to make MS way alone into the
town and present himself before the
