and greeting old friends in this
city the past week.
Henry Miller of New Paris, O.,

Ruth Irene, the fifteen-year-
old daughter of John Gilbert and
wife, died Sunday evening at
their home on Olive street of
consumption. Funeral services
were held Tuesday afternoon at
the residence, conducted by Rev.
Thomas, pastor Of the Christian
church.
Mrs. James Williams of Harri-
son avenue, sustained a broken
ankle last Thursday evening.
Just after boarding a car at the
fair grounds she dropped her
pocketbook and alighted to get it
just as the car started, and as a
consequence was thrown heavily
to the ground, the fracture re-
sulting.

This is distilled, the water taken out of it,
and the pure, dry ammonia. gas is that which
remains. This gas is called hydrous. am
momonia. In this state it is used for freez-
ing purposes.
Because of its great evaporating capacity,
up to the present time it is considered to be
the most efficient agent for the purpose of
manufacturing ice. One cubic inch of this
ammonia gas in its liquid state is capable of
expansion to eleven hundred times its original
volume.
The chief object of making ice is to make
if as cheap as possible, and in order to do
that a number of inventors have put their
brains to work.
One Of the most effective methods is de-
scribed as follows:
The exhaust steam, after it has done the
compressng of the ammonia gas, is utilized.
| This steam is passed through a volume Of
water to wash it, in order to take out the oil
or traces of oil. The steam is then filtered
and after that condensed into water again

methyllc ether, nitrous oxide, methaamine
and chvmogene.
Anhydrous ammonia, or ammoniacal gas,
when entirely deprived of moisture, was found
OF all others to answer the purpose of artif-
clal refrigeration. Its boiling point is 27 de-
grees below zero Fahrenheit at the pressure
OF the atmosphere, the gas producing suff-
GENTLY low temperature at boiling pressure

Not till 1858 was any notable progress made
in the art of refrigeration, nor anv new ideas

Frenchman, proposed an entirely new and
original plan of Equefying ammonia by using
therefor. the aqueous solution of this gas,
twenty-five parts of ammonia in seventy-five
parts of water. This is called the "absorp-

Cares machine had its defects ALSO and
inventors turned their attention again to the
mechanical compression of anhydrous gas,
which is accomplished by means of powerful
vacuum and compression pumps, but the me

IRON PLANT PROSPECTS GOOD.

The Executive committee of the
Business League received on Tues
day written proposition from the
company with whom they have been
negotiating for the locating of their
iron plant in this city. The commit
tee met in the Council room in the
evening, and few of our citizens
met with them
The proposition was favorably con-
sidered and il was agreed that it
ought to be accepted. Briefly the
proposition is that the League should
negotiate "a loan of $4S, 600, pay the
company s., 900 for part of their ex-
pense i'll moving and give them title
TO the land required. The assets of
the company which are to protect the
loan are believed to be ample.
There are some features In connec-
ton with the project that cannot be
given to the public until the PROPOSE
ton is formally accepted, but the
reasons were satisfactorily explained,
and the committee is heartily in favor
of accepting the conditions.

confirmed, to report their recommen-
dation tc citizens meeting to be

with the much discussed roadside
brier act, which was put on the State
few years ago, bnt which its unpop-
nlarity has kept from being enforced.
The bill reads as follows:
| |. The township committee of each
township shall have the full super
vision, management and control OF
the making and repairing of all roads
In said township, and may make and
repair the same by hire or contract,
and for that purpose shall annually

oyerseer of said road to superinteud
the making aud repairing of all roads
| and cutting and removing of all briers
and weeds for the term of one year.

Prof. A. P. Kerr To Resign.

At the regular meeting of the Board
of Education to be held this We'd
desday) evening, Prof. A. p. Kerr,
supervising principal, will present
his resignation, to take effect at the
close of the present term. This ac-
ton is regarded as unavoidable by
Prof. Kerr on account of his physical
condition. At the beginning of the
term last September, he was taken i'll
and was removed to Mercer Hospital,
Trenton, where several operations
were necessary, aud he was not able
to return to this city until a month
ago. The doctors have informed him
that it will be some time before he can
resume active work.
Prof. Kerr has been identified with
the Lambertvile schools for many
years. He came to this city during
the principalship of Mr.. Ruth in the
seventies and taught mathematics and
other subjects. In 1887 he came here
as principal. Ever since that time he
has been at the head of the public
schools. In 1902 he was appointed
| supervising principal.
