FIRE ENGINE FUEL.
The London Brigade is Planning to
Substitute Oil for Coal.


For some time past experiments have
been made by the chief officer of the
Metropolitan fire brigade with a view to
ascertaining whether it would be adyisa-
bic to use oil fuel in place of coal with
fire brigade appliances.
As the result of an extended trial, both
with river steam engines and land steam
engines, he reports that. although as re-
CARDS expenditure the economy is not so
great as he anticipated, the advantages
derived are such as to make it absolutely
certain that it would be well for land
fire engines, at all events. 60 be so con-
structed that oil fuel may be used there

The principal advantage Is that with
oil fuel a working head of steam is OBJ
tanned much more rapidly than with coal.

county council reports: THE chief Off
Ger is DESTROYS of using on the land en-
gines low-hash oil, because it is much
better for the purpose than high-fash
oil. The latter oil 10 very liable TO car

scorching his face and left arm and
smuggling his hair and clothing.
THE chief officer is of opinion that
no danger will result co the men riding
on the engines, inasmuch as the fire in
the engine is shut off by a tank from

| these circumstances we consider that
low-hash oil may be used for heating

Wonan's Priceless Gift.

How often we meet well-meaning

may have a sweet manRer but an ungain-

In these days of advanced ideas on all
fines the world will not tolerate imper-
fectionS in womanly grace, as it once did,
TO those who have high ambitions. AS
a drop of dew reflects the grandeur of
the heavens so woman is expected to
reflect all that is beautiful in personal

1t does not require the addition of a
costly gown to be attractive. True aud

Noted Indian Prisoner.

Jackson, Miss, Feb. 81" Com
modore" Dixon, an Indian convict
who escaped from the State peniten-
tiary last April, has been returned to
the Wardens Office and sent to one
of the delta farms to resume his sem
tence.
Dixon made his escape from the
new farm in Sunhower county short
ly after possession of that place was
taken by the State. He Is one OF the
three Indians who are Involuntary
spending a visit to the State prison
and was sent up to serve life SEN
tence for murder.
The prisoner was captured over in
Arkansas, and he expresses himself
as genuinely glad to get back home,
even though it means a renewal Of
life service to the State. He was
under arrest over lin Arkansas on
some minor felony charged and stood
a good chance of getting five or ten
years penitentiary sentence in that
state. Having been made acquainted
with the fact that the Arkansas con-
victs are not treated so we'll as their
brethren in this State, Dixon reached
the conclusion that he would rather
come home than stand trial in the
State across the river, and tile Arkan-
sas authorities, not desiring to go to
the expense of a trial, readily turned
him over to the Mississippi authori-
ties.
Aside from being afflicted with the
traditional laziness of his tribe, Dixon
made an excellent convict PRIOR to his
escape, and as prison arrivals are
rather slow just at present, the Off
GERS are glad to get him back to his
first love.
