NEW FUEL FROM BROWN COAL.
1t Is Made Near Dresden Out of a
 Bohemian Product.

According to paper by Herr Buch- ner in the Zeitschrift of the Society of German Engineers, new fuel, Knumazit, is being made near Dres- den from Bohemian brown coal says the New York Post. The coal is kept twenty -four hours in coke-oven retorts. The finished Kaumazit is removed from the base of the retorts every three hours and is cooled. The retort procedure first evaporates the hygro- scopic water in the brown coal (25 and 2S per cent), and then causes the distlllation of the heavy hydrocar- bons.
 The retorts are worked under q par tial vacuum. The gases obtained from the retorts are cooled and scrubbed, and the purified gases are used part to heat the retorts, part to drive gas engines, and surplus remains for sale to the various industries in the neighborhood. The thermal value of the Kaumazit obtained averages G,740 kg.-cals. It contains 7734 per cent carbon, 14.9 per cent ash and 1.47 per cent hydrogen, with i..O per cent hy- groscopic water. It is graded in three sizes, and is sold for the production of slow-burning briQuettes. Analysis proves KaumaZit to be fuel poor in gas and high in fixed carbon. It has high ignition temperature.
 
 Boiler firing with this fuel there fore demands closed ashpits and blow CTS under the grate to obtain the best results. With well-designed grates q boiler efficiency of 72.2 per cent has been obtained. The air pressure is so regulated that when the fire doors are opened there is neither air indrawing nor flame emission, a result obtained by working with a chimney draft of ' nm. of water and a blower pressure of about the same value. In the trials carried out with this fuel the excess air has only averaged 10 per cent above that required by theory for complete combustion of the fuel. Kaumazit is. further, a smokeless fuel and the cost in Dresden is so regulated that in most industries it can be employed so as to yield a saving of from 3 to 10 per cent, as compared with ordinary coal.

HOPI INDIAN WEAVERS.
They Taught the Act to the NavajOs

The Hopi were the original weavers of the southwest and taught the Nava- jo the craft that has made him famous -"her", rather, for it's the Navajo women who do their weaving, the men devoting their time and energies to- ward the business end, disposing of the women's products at the trading posts, says the Craftsman. Very few speci- mems of the Hopi's exquisite work reach civilization, for nearly every thing they make is for their own use.
 The women of the tribe are most conservative and adhere to the native dress woven in one piece, folded, laced together with colored yarns and belt ed in with ten-inch sash of bright hue. It is black, diagonal weave, with diamond pattern. This Is caught over the right shoulder, leaving the left bare, and they generally wear mantle of smaller blanket, or of cali co, caught over the left shoulder and flowing free behind. With this ar- engagement of costume and their own odd method of hairdressing 1t would be q long trip to find anything more picturesque than group of women and girls gathered for their daily trad ing bee and mothers meeting" on a kiva roof, or on house terrace, weav- Ing their bright-colored trays, and lunching, or particularly on the house. tops, viewing ''dance" in the plaza, when each one wears her best.

was called, was past his sixtieth year.
For twenty years he had been in COM
mand Of the army. One had but to
look at his strong, sardonic face to
know that he was a fearless leader, a
savage fighter. His eyes were black,
piercing and never quiet; his hair and
white; his voice was heavy and with
out yestige Of warmth. Since her
babyhood Yetive had stood in awe Of
this grim old warrior. 1t was no un-
common thing for mothers to subdue
aiso5edient children with the threat to
give them over to the Iron Count.
"Old Marlanx will get you if you're
not good" was household phrase in
Edelweiss. He had been married five
times, and as many times had he been
left a widower. If he were discon-
solate in any instance, no one had been
able to discover the fact. Enormously
rich, as riches go in Graustark, he had
found young women for his wives who
thought only Of his gold and his lands
in the trade. they made with Cupid.
It was said that without exception
they died happy. Death was a joy.
The fortress overlooking the valley to
The south was no more rugged and IN
yielding than the man who made his
home within its walls. He lived there
from choice, and it was with his own
money that he fitted up the comman-
dant's quarters in truly regal style.
Power was more to him than wealth,
though he enjoyed both.
Colonel Quinnox brought news from
the castle. Yetive's uncle and aunt, the
Count and Countess Halfont, were
eagerly expecting her return, and the
city was preparing to manifest its joy
in the most exuberant fashion. AS
they drew up to the gates the shouts Of
the people came to the ears Of the
travellers. Then the boom Of cannon
and the blare Of bands broke upon the
air, thrilling Beverly to the heart. She
wondered how Yetive could be so
calm and unmoved in the face Of all
this homage.
Past the great Hotel Regengetz and
the tower moved the gay procession
into the broad stretch of boulevard
that led to the gates Of the palace
grounds. The gates stood wide open
and inviting. Inside was Jacob Fraasch,
the chief steward of the grounds. with
his men drawn up in line; upon the
walls the sentries came to parade rest;
On the plaza the royal band was play
ing as though by Inspiration. Then the
gates closed behind the coach and es-
cort, and Beverly Calhoun was safe
inside the castle walls. The Iron
Count handed her from the carriage
at the portals Of the palace, and she
stood as one in a dream.

so much. Oh, yes; will you write an

hospital people may be-er-disoblig-

'.It shall be in your highness' hands

The next morning, with Colonel Quin-
nox and a small escort, Beverly Cal
houn set off in one of the royal coaches
for Ganlook, accompanied by faithful
Aunt Fanny. She carried the order
from Baron Dangloss and letter from
Yetive to the Countess Rallowitz in
suring hospitality overnight in the
northern town Lorry and the royal
household entered merrily into her
project, and she went away with the
godspeeds Of all. The Iron Count him
self rode beside her coach to the city

place for him in the castle guard, won't
you, Count Marlanx?' she said at the
parting, her hopes as fresh as the daisy
In the dew, her confidence supreme.
The count promised faithfully, even
eagerly. Colonel Quinnox, trained as
he was in the diplomacy Of silence,
could scarcely conceal his astonish-

warrior.

MANIPULATION or ssadsKEY
VIII Be Affected BY eIss pure Food
Laws.

Washington, Dec 19.-Representa-
tive Longwarth today introduced to
Secretary Wilson Of the department
Of agriculture 20 whiskey distillers
from all parts of the. country, who
came to Washington to ask thetsecre-
tary the question what is blend ?''
This is question that has given
the department more trouble than all
others raised under the new food
law. 1t has caused great alarm
among the distillers, some of whom
declare they will be driven out Of
business should the department pro-
ceed to carry out it's announced inten-
tons as to labelling.
The delegation represented all of
the Independent dist;llers of the Uni
ted States, with an invested capita!
of more than s20,O00,0oo. They pre-
sented to Secretary Wilson brief
outlining their contention and stating
the reasons why the ruling Of the de-
partment, under the pure food and
drug act, should not be enforced.
The ruling Of which complaint was
made is, in effect. that the mixture Of
neutral spirits and Bourbon and rye
whiskey, to which harmless coloring
and favoring ingredients have been
added, cannot be branded blended
whiskey' or, indeed, whiskey at all.
The hearing was informal in char
acter, Secretary Wilson and DR.. H. w.
Wiley, chief of the bureau of chemis-
try, discussing the subject.
No conclusion was reached at to-
days conference and none will be
reached until the subject shall have
been considered with other represent
atives of the whiskey interests.
