Making Smoke Profitable.

To put smoke to profitable use has
been the aim of Tobiansky, the Bel
gian engineer. In his process the
smoke is forced by a fan into a filter
ing tower charged with coke, or other
porous absorbent, sprinkled with
naphtha or alcohol, and the sot is re-
tanned by the coke, while the filtered
gases, mixed with yapor from the
naphtha or alcohol, are collected in a
gssometer, to be fed to Welsbach
burners, stoves or gas engines. This
gaseous mixture, which has been
named pyrogas, burns with a bright
fame and an entire absence Of smoke.
The value Of pyrogas even makes ii
profitable to burn fuel Of low grade
for its smoke alone, and it is com
puted that plants of small cost will
enable cities to derive a material in
come from the conversion of theiI
garbage into purified smoke for light
and power. Large factories and small
establishments in Belgium are max.
ing experiments both in saving and
producing smoke for its cOmbustibl'
Qag.

USE OF BIG WORDS.
Negro Witnesses in Criminal Courts
Are Particularly Amusing.

Spectators at the police court, says
the Washington Star, are furnished
with considerable amusement at
times because Of the expressions used
by witnesses who desire to make an
impression on the court by using big
words, with the meaning Of which
they are not familiar.
Several DAYS ago the witnesses in a
particular case were directed to leave
the courtroom and remain in a wit
ness room until they were called. AL
Of them obeyed with the exception of
one colored youth, who remained in
the room unknown to the bailiffs.
"Why didn't you leave the court
room when Instructed asked,
81 came down here to give my dec
laration, and how do you expect me
to give it unless | stayed in this
room?" he declared.
"But you heard the evidence given
by the other witnesses" the attorney
for the defense told him.
"No, sir; l didn't pay any atten-
ton to the testament, he announced,
and it was with considerable difficult
ty that order was restored.
An elderly colored woman recent
ly caused laughter when it was init
mated that she was telling an I'M
truth.
81 wouldn't for the world" she de-
clared, "stand here before the con-
gregation and make use Of false
words"
