Substitute for Anthracite Coal.

The authorities of the District of
Columbia seem to have solved the
fuel problem in a way that should
prove valuable to all portions of the
country affected by the anthracite
stringency. 1t is customary for the
municipal government of Washington
to make contracts in July for the
coming years supply of fuel, but thi.;
year it was impossible to obtain bids
for the requisite supply of anthracite
coal. accordingly the district COM
missioners recently ordered extensive
experiments to be made with the
view of heating the schools with fuel
other than anthracite. The result
of these experiments has now been
made public. and it is announced
that a perfect substitute for anthra-
cite has been found in a mixture of
bituminous coal and coke.
From the official reports made to
the commissioners it appears that
by firing the furnaces with. first, n
layer of coke then a layer of blum
nous coal and then a top layer of
coke fine fire is secured and one
that emits a minimum amount Of
smoke The commissioners were in
terested not alone in securing COM
paratively slow burning fire for
school heating plants. but wanted as
well fire which would make the
smallest quantity of black smoke.
In giving the results of the expert
ments the superintendent of property
reported to the commissioners that
the most satisfactory results are
obtained by first spreading a layer of
coke as by the burning of the fuel
arranged in the manner stated there
was only a minimum amount of
smoke obtainable. and satisfactory
heating qualities were produced"
If the combination of soft coal and

Borough workmen Have Completed
 Work of Church Street Sewer.
 The borough workmen under Road Superintendent Pitcher have complet- ed the work of running the Church street sewer out to the sidewalk and the road is now in condition to be graded and crushed stone put on. The sewer was run out to the sidewalk so that the street would not be dug up after the crushed stone had been put on. In most every case people wait until the street is fixed, the crushed stone packed down hard and sidewalks laid before they connect with the sew CT. Then, of course, when they dig up the street it is as bad as though it was never fixed. MT Pitcher has seen a good deal of this and he was deter mined that it should not be. so on Church street and he don't think it will.
