Blasting with AcetyIene.

A new process for using calcium car
bide in blasting is described by Cue
dras in the Complies Rendus. A sheet
iron cylinder is use as a cartridge. 1t
has three separate compartments-one
containing calcium carbide, another
water, and the third only air and an
electric fuse. The cartridge is placed
In the drill hole, the latter closed by
wooden plug, and the water in the
cartridge then allowed, by a special de-
vice, to flow into the carbide compart-
ment. After about five minutes, during
which time the cartridge has become
filled with a mixture OF acetylene and
air under high pressure, the electric
fuse is ignited by current, and vio-
lent explosion results.

THREATENED Car Famine
All the BIG Railroad Companies Need Cars
for Carrying Coal

The greatest car famine in history
threatens the coal carrying roads Of
the country So serious has the
situation lecome tia; tie New York
Central, Pennsylvania, Baltimore &
Ohio have issued orders prohibiting
the use of cars exec pit for the trans
rortation Of coal or their own lines
or for the shipment OF cousigu-
ments originating on their roads
and intended for immediate delivery
on some connecting line. The
shortage on the Pennsylvania road
is so great that bituminous operat.
ors in Central Pennsylvania have
been compelled to restrict their
production. Transportation offices
of the Reading and Pennsylvania
have been besieged by mire operat-
ors begging more cars. They are
placing their car orders for weeks
ahead, but are given no assurance
except that all shall share alike in
the supply of cars as they accumu-
late each day. The apportionmelt
is made in proportion to the pre-
duction of each company and each
operator is doing his best to increase
his share Of available cars. II is
believed that this unusual transpor-
tation of coal is III anticipation of
strike, for which the coal compan-
les are preparing by unusual stor.
age.

Ouecr Cas-, OF Cr1tt.

The Russian press h-1 L,cn full ui
accounts OF q mysterious discovery of
gold on one Of the trains arriving at
Samara. Three large cases, suppo.ol
to contain Red Cross medical supptcs.
were found to be stuffed with gold aul
paper money to the amount OF l.0Nu,-
600 roubles. which had apparently been
shipped from the front The gendarm-
erie took the matter in hand. An in
vestigation was ordered promptly and
as promptly suppressed, apparently ~
high authority.
The NOwCsti, commenting on the il-
cident, remarks: THAT robbery Cf state
property goes on in the far east We
knew long ago. That it also exists TO
the west, south and north as well a. in
the center, we also had reason to be-
lieve; but the case under notice Is iu-
teresting because upon the first count
the money amounted TO a million ruu-
bles, but upon being counted by the
police it amounted to about 100000
Being then placed under control it
had, of course, to be counted again,
when it was found TO be about Gi0.0Uo
roubles. The arithmetic of the various
departments the money passed through
varied 50 considerably that the sum
presently dwinded to 100000 roubes
The higher authorities, having now
stepped in, It Is TO be presumed that
further counungs will take place, and
by the time the wealth reaches the con-
signee it is hardly likely to amount to
double figures" Such is graft in the
czar's duminiCns.

The work Of the plant bureau is in
character almost infinitely varied. Take
for example the successful experiments
recently made in the growing of i'm
proved varieties of mushrooms. II you
will visit the town of Columbia, Mo,
you will find there a great establish
ment with surroundings which suggest
a brickyard in full operation. 1t is, in
fact, a brick factory, but the bricks
which are stacked in huge piles out OF
doors, are not of clay, but of mush-
room spawn-spawn, that is to say, OF
a superior quality, guaranteed to pro-
duce much finer mushrooms than those
hitherto purchasable in the markets.
This industry is the outcome of a
discovery, made by one of the plant bu-
reau's experts, that it was practicable
to introduce small bits of mushrooms
into bottles Of sterilized manure, and,
when the thread-like vegetation of the
fungus had run all through the manure,
to use the latter for the seeding of
mushroom beds. Inasmuch as only the
largest and finest mushrooms are
chosen for the purpose, the spawn OBJ
tanned Is of superior variety and
yields mushrooms of corresponding
quality. BY mixing it with heaps of
compost the latter is soon converted
into spawn of like high grade, winch,
made into bricks, finds ready market
at very remunerative price.-Outing

FOOD VALUE OF BANANAS
They Are Not, Like Some Fruits
Good Only for Their Flavor.

Professors of dietetics tell us that ths
banana is not, as many fruits are.

and a source Of real nutriment. II is
at once useful and delicious. 1t not
only gratiGes the palate, but supplies
material for combustion and the main.
tenance of animal heat, while # also
builds up the muscles and repairs the
worn and threadbare nerves.
The -four made from it in its dried
state is equal in nutritive value TO rice.
and how invigorating and sustainingrice
is has been demonstrated in the recent
achievements of the Japanese Dried
and sprinkled with sugar, a form in
which II has been recently introduced
in this country. the upstart banana is,
weight for weight, as nutritious as the
venerable fg.
But it IS in the fresh state that tho
banana chiefly appeals TO us. It's
creamy succulence and delicate odor are
inviting. ard its pleas mt sapor is q
prelude to good digestion. Dependent
as that sapor is in ethereal body. which
the coal tar Investigators have not y.i
been able to initiate by chemical os-
sence. It is subtle stimulus TO all sub.
sequent elementary processes. And thus
IL Is that the banana Is an cmiucntly
digesuble food. No sense of oppres...0

Raoul Chenier smiled. Having

You have been good to allow me
to upset your work and abuse your
kindness, monsieur" she began.
THE word abuse has no reason to
exist. madame, between you and

She thanked him with a bow, and
Raoul surprised himself by murmur-
ing: What beauty! She is really ex-

Monsieur said the charming
widow. after a slight pause. II wish

He voted for the bill creating a state

and boasted that he would vote to over
ride the mayors veto, sl071 for badges
furnished the legislature of 1897 for a
1unket to Philadelphia to attend the

ment--Legislative Record page 1855.
He also voted for the bill abolishing

was so manifestly dishonest that the
late Malcolm L. Mcconnell, chairman
Of the House Republican steering COM
mittee, voted against t.
As a "dodger" Mr. Plummer proved
himself quite artful, moreover, during
the session Of 1903. That is he "dodg-
ed" several very important measures
upon which public interest had center
ed. For example he Is recorded as "ab-
sent and not voting" on the bill pro-
viding that election officers must be
residents Of the districts or divisions
within which they act. - Legislative
Record, pages 1O29-3O. The bill was
notOriously designed TO protect election
frauds. Its effect would have been to
legaize the phantom election officers
Of which so much Is now heard in con-
nection with the padded registry lists.
He also "dodged" the vote on the bill
providing that where a certificate OF
nomination is not sustained by the
courts the petitioner shall be compelled
to pay the costs.-Legisative Record,
page 2, 2029 The obvious intent Of
that bill was TO prevent attacks on ma

would be hazardous and might be very
