out of doors.
The village fire department was called.

and ladder company, despite the bonn
bardment going on, dashed in and dragged
out the body of Mrs. Mondarino, which
was mutilated beyond recognition. He
went in a second time and dragged out
one of the injured men. The fire was put
out in a few minutes. and in searching the
ruins six empty casks were found, each
of which had contained about Atty pounds
of powder.
The villagers knew nothing of the ex-
istence Of fireworks factory and powder
magazine right in their backwards. Ac-
cording to the police Mondarino had q
permit to carry on his factory Late yes
terday afternoon an inspector from the
New York Fire Department began making

The new track at Charles River Park. de-

is partly responsible for this remarkable ride,

Substitute For Coal,

Minneapolis Tribune: A practical
test OF :igaite briquettes for heat produc.
ing purposes was made yesterday after.
noon at the 500 shops At Shorebam.
The test was made on l7xA inch.
eight wheel engine under full tonnage,
pnrpose o: comparing the practicability
Of this new fuel with that of soft coal.
Through the courtesy of T.. A., Foqus.
the mechanical superintendent OF the
! shops, under WHOSE directions the tests
were made. the representative OF The
Tribune was given seat IN the loeomo.
tive cab, snd viewed the experiment
from beginning to end. -..s-.>
The Ii quite briquettes are the diecov-
cry of pr. R. J. Schimper, graduate Of
Heidelberg University. who has made
this matter life long study. He first
experimental with the use Of Ignite a.
q railroad fuel when connected with the
French railroad At Constsntinople. and
ut that time became CONVINCED that With
the proper chemical treatment liguite
G 'uld be transformed into very valu-
able fuel.
Three years ago be visited the ignite
fields Of North Dakota and from expert
ments conducted with the product of
that region he completed his formula
for the manufacture of the briquettes. in
their present form. .........
The manufacture Of the br,quettes is
very simple. the Ignite being ground up
into dust and after being submitted to q
secret chemical process the product is
suppressed into bricks, that are as hard
rs anthracite with .. specific gravity
three points greater. The process of
mining the Ignite and manufacturing
tile briquettes costs $l.25s ton. and the
product is in every way the equal, Il not
the superior, of anthracite. =.-..=- ,~....
From experiments made at the state
university, 1928 heat units we're devel-
oped from the briquettes. IL 900 heat
units from anthracite. aud about 1900
from bituminous coal. FROM the anthra
cite, ashes weighing four pounds were
produced, while the same amount of the
prepared Ignite only produced one
pound eight ounces of ashes.
The test Yesterday at the 500 shops
VAS every way successful, the Ignite pro.
ducing regular heat aud keeping the
steam pressure vt the required $50
pounds during the entire experiment.
The Ignite produced but little smoke
and ut end Of the Test the fire box of the
