LIGHTING LORE.
AcETYLENE ExcELs AS AN lLLu-
MiNANT.
Gas for Lighting Formerly Confined 10
Cities and Large Towns, now In
General Use in the Country.

The satisfactory lighting of sNSur-
ban and country homes requires that
the means used shall be convenient
safe, economical and furnish a bril-
liant, penetrating. effulgent light.
Everybody admits that these are
not the characteristics of the candle
or kerosene lamp, which, formerly.
were the only feasible mean Of pro-
ducing light for domestic use in the
rural districts.
For generations there was a crying
need, a y~earning for something better.
which was not satisfied. A few years
ago deliverance came in the shape OF
the chemical compound, Calcium Car
bide, from which, by the simple ap-
plication Of water, the gas Acetylene
is derived. Acetylene meets all the
requirements fully and admirably and
is being generally used.
Common lime and carbon in the
form Of coke or coal are the raw ma
terials which, fused in an intensely
heated furnace, make Calcium Car
bide, and there is no difficulty in OBJ
tanning it in any part Of the country.
The machine into which the Cal
eium Carbide is fed and from which
the Acetylene is distributed through
the building to be lighted. is but little
larger than a thirty-gallon milk ian,
and Of the same general form. 1t is
easily and cheaply installed, either in
the cellar or in an out-building.
THE light from burning A~cetylene
is exquisite. and lighting experts agree
that it surpasses all other known illu-
minants. 1t does not faint the air nor
strain the eyes and is not objection
able in any respect. Every up-to-date
rural residence should be equipped
with Acetylene light.

Some Words Of Counsel.

Gallant rescues of fair young ladies
by brave young men are the order Of
the day at the bathing resorts. IN the
routine of romance, as the accounts
commonly run, there are tears of graf.
itude, the hasty avowal, and the happy
wedding day. Now, if this sort Of
casual ~life-saving is to take rank as
a summer industry, ought it not to be
kept free from sentimental conse
quences? Ought the dashing young
hero as he plunges through the waves
to catch the beautiful young heroine
by the hair rs she goes under for the
third time to be burdened with doubts
as to whether his income is sufficient
50 support two? 1t is likely to chill
the stoutest heart that ever breasted
the sea to have to ask itself al so crit
ical a moment whether the drowning
girl may not belong to a different So
cial set, whether her parents may not
have plans for her Dr+ure. A man may
stand ready, as a matter of course, to
brave any perils to ave a woman's
life and still desire leisure to consider
whether the time has come to abandon
his bachelor habits and live in a fiat.

MINING METHODS OF AMERICA
Why Production Here - Larger per
Capita Than Aboard.

ONPieo man AOOdFus
1t Is not difficult to understand the
manufacturing supremacy Of the Unit
ed States when one our coal
production statistics with those of for
eign countries, says the Boston Tran
script. The country having a cheap
supply of fuel for steam purposes wiz
lead in manufacturing. There are
employed in the coal mines of Great
Britain nearly 100000 men, and they
produced last year a coal product val
ued at $780, 900, 900 more than that Of
this country. Yet with less than 525,-
600 coal miners in the United States
we produced. 10000 900 toni more of
coal than did Great Britain. With us
there is an average production per
miner OF a little less than 1000 tons
OF coal per annum. Great Britain
produces 287 tons per capita, Germany
242 tons, France 1913 tons, and Bel
GUM 166 tons.
These figures show the immense
superiority of the American coal min
er, yet mine wner testify that it is
due to methods rather than men, as
the British miners who come here
make our best workmen. The differ.
ence is that Great Britain largely
clings to the antiquated method OF
pick mining, while here steam has
taken the place of muscle and powder
has been substituted for picks. In
the thicker coal seams there is no
longer any pick work and the physical
exercise of drilling is no longer neces-
sary.
Yet there is another side to the
matter. The mortality from accidents
in the Illinois coal mines last year
was 2.S7 per 1000 men employed,
which is one and one-half times the
percentage of fatal accidents in Brit
ish mines. 1t is evident that some
means should be taken to reduce the
death rate and it has been suggested
that blasts should not be made while
the miners are still at work, but
should be set off after hours by men
chosen for this dangerous occupation.

LONG REACH FOR DIAMONDS.
Crown of a Drill Lost In the Earth
In South Africa.


THE Recovery of a Diamond Crown
From a Deep Bore Hole" is the title
Of a paper read by Cuthbert Barring
Norwood before the Institution OF
Civil Engineers and reproduced by
permission in the American Machin
list. The diamonds were in the crown
of a drill lost 1898 feet below the
surface of the ground. The risk in.
volved in the accident was that the
hole might have to be abandoned en-
tirely. According to Mr.. Norwood
this would have meant "a A years
work wasted; 90 probably nine
months delay before the same depth
could again be reached in another
hole; (3) loss Of the total amount
spent up to that time (about $40, 00O) F;
() loss of $3.50 worth of diamonds;
90 loss owing to depreciation OF
plant and machinery for one year;
and other incidental losses.
The diamond drill was lost while
boring the Van Ryn Reef. Operations
were begun in 1902 on a farm on the
far East Rand, about thirty-three
miles from Johannesburg. When the
work had proceeded for more than a
year and the bore hole had reached a
depth Of 1928 feet the bit became
damned, and the rods were conse-
quently withdrawn. When the core
barrel was drawn up it was found that
it contained no core and the diamond
crown was missing.
In order to recover this precious
tool and clear the way for further
operations a special tap was made In
johannesburg. This tool was six
inches in length, of which ~ inches

designed to cut through and beyond

BY use of this tool a loss of ovel
$4,000 was saved. All the diamonds
were found to be intact; there were

Cow chews on $40 cud.

Ike Austin of Traverse City, Mich,
is out $50 and a cow, and the reason
therefore is most peculiar. Austin
was driving the cows to a slaughter
house and ropped his pocketbook con-
tanning $40 in bills. "Bossy" made a
grab for it and devoured both wallet
and currency before Austin could get
off from the wagon. Intent on re-
covering his cash, Ike killed the crea-
ture instanter. He secured the green
backs again, but they were chewed
TO tatters. and he will send the pre-
cious cud to Washington in the hope
of recovering its value in new bills.

Tins Lead to Rrlhes.

At the recent convention in Ham.
burg of the Coal Dealers association
of Germany a number of delegates
spoke on the practice of tipping and
bribing. They complained that stokers
and others having to do with coal
used in manufacturing works and
large establishments of any kind must
be given bride money, or have their
influence used against the coal deal
ers to prevent the securing of new or
ders. The delegates urged the neces-
sity of taking measures to abolish
the nefarious practice. Americans
travelling in Europe find the tipping
abuse very annoying. The tipping evil
has undoubtedly led to the bribery
method which now has become so yex.
atious to business people.
