When the Gas 10 Public.

Mr.. Newbigging, chief engineer OF
the Manchester municipality owned gas
works, in a paper read recently sald
that the introduction Of the incandes-
cent sas-burner had given new lease
of life to gas undertakings, and had
placed gas in the front position as the
cheapest illuminant.
Having made the statement that eiec-
tricity, light for light at Manchester
prices, is eight times dearer than gas,
he said an incandescent gas-burner de-
yelops, per cubic foot Of gas consumed,
from fifteen to forty candles, accord
ing to the system. With gas ffty-sl1
cents per 1000 cubic feet and electricity
at 7.72 cents per unit, average prices
in Manchester, the cost would be 5.I1
cents for 1000 candles, while one unit
of electricity developed in an mean
descent burner light equal to 700
candles each at 7.72 cents per unit or
3O.1O cents per 1000 candles.
The Manchester gas works intends
to establish a new department to deal
not only with the maintenance OF con-
sumers' incandescent burners, United

Romance Of n Scientific Age.

Mr.. Robert Bridges, in an article OH
is Poetry to Have Chance" in COL
lier's, says:
ITO sail under the sea or through
the air, to talk through space, to see
through flesh and bone, to make light
out of darkness, to harness Niagaras,
to make wax speak and pictures move
these have been the deeds of the
poets of our generation. The things
that were dreamed Of in the Arabian
Nights have become realities-and
yet they say this is prosaic age! 1t
is seething with romance; young men
talk the impossible on street corners
and across little tables-and then make
it come true. The spirit of achieve
ment is the spirit of imagination and
hope. These men delight to live. de-
light to plan, and dream. and hammer
out results. Nothing staggers them
and failure or success is greeted with a
smiling face.'

discussion Of immigration and al
address by Gustav H. Schwab OF ne"
York on foreign commerce and ocean
transportation were the. features o.
Wednesdays sessions. The immigra-
ton question was discussed by seaa'
tor Simmons of North Carolina and
Frank P. Sergeant Of the immigration
bureau. Permanent organization was
effected by the election OF Governor
Robert Glenn of North Carolina. as
president. DR.. w. c. Murphy, Wash
ington, secretary. E. P. Thaxton, Co
lumbia, S. c., treasurer. Vice presl'
dents for each state were also named.
Gustav Schwab, on the subject OF
"Foreign Commerce and Ocean Trans
portation," spoke, in part, as follows:
1T is therefore, necessary that the
southern states, If desirous OF IN
ducing productive flow OF willing
immigrants and industrious settlers,
should create such conditions as Will
render tie opportunity for employ
ment and production remunerauVe
and life attractive. To that end It
would, in my opinion, be desirable u
provide for the enactment OF Uniform
labor laws, and fixing hours OF employ
ment for such labor. Some OF the
southern states, I believe, have adopt
ed laws of this character sufficiently
protecting the immigrant whose un-
familiarity with our language, laws
and customs easily render him VIC
time Of designing and unscrupulous
employers.
"Keeping in mind the lack Of knowl-
edge of our conditions which the
alien immigrant displays, it would be
necessary to furnish him with the
information on the subject OF the
characteristics Of the southern coun-
try, it's inducements, its toll and cli-
mate and other features. It would
be a good thing not only to say to
the alien, you may land but also
furnish him information regarding the
opportunities in various sections OF
the country. He urged the delegates
to use their influence with congress
to enact a law establishing at Ellis
Island a bureau of information for i'm
migrants. There are thousands, he
said, who would be glad to be directed
to the open country where there is
sunshine and plenty of room, and
where it would be an advantage to
the country to have them locate. The
way to get immigration started was
to get people located. He expressed
his desire to see some arrangement
made whereby aliens coming to Amer.
ica would steer clear Of New York.

abroad by the government, and prom
inent citizens of South Carolina to
secure immigrants to people pro-
posed new settlement for which a mil
lion acres have been set apart in that
state, has sailed for Europe on the
steamer Potsdam. He will visit Ger
many, Holland and Belgium and will
distribute literature explaining the
enclosure.
Mr.. Wyngaarden said before sailing
that the land had been purchased in
Columbia county by the governor ana
his associates, that it was very fer
tile, and that good cotton and other
crops could be raised upon it.
It was proposed also, he said, to es-
tablish factories there. Negroes, ne
added, seemed unable to achieve sat-
isfactory results as agriculturists, and
this pormpted the invitation to the for
eigners. An effort will be made to
secure immigrants suitable for farm
ing or factory work.
AS they arrive they will be taken
in charge by David Van Wyck, a
member of the Hoboken board o.
health, and will be shipped to South
Carolina by steamer.

twenty-five hundred officers and men.
All of the cavalry goes out except
that six companies are retained as
reserve mounted infantry for coast
defense. These will be given uniforms,
carbines and will get half the usual
annual pay. In addition to six cav
airy troops wiped out, ten infantry
companies are disbanded. This ac-
ton is based on the inspection reports
of Colonel Patrick. If the new law
were strictly applied even more com
