of each magazine is hopper to which
the coal is fed either by the fireman or
by chutes leading from the bottom of
coal bins overhead. After the coal is
placed in the hoppers it is conveyed
into the furnace by what are termed
conveyors, the number depending on
the depth of furnace. These conveyors
oscillate about shaft and work alter
nately-that is, while one is moving up
the other is moving down.
The conveyors are set so that each
succeeding one will take certain pro-
portion of the coal conveyed to it, leav-
ing the remainder to be pushed to the
fire surface This proportion is con-
slant, no matter how fast or how slow
the coal is fed. The portion of the coal
in the course of being pushed to the
fire surface is gradually heated and
ignited and thereby formed into coke.
The process, being continuous, heaps up
the formed coke above the magazine,
which, partly through gravity and part
ly through the action of the conveyors,
falls to the inclining CRATES on the
sides and is gradually worked to the
center and sides of the furnace. The
continuous oscillating motion Of the
conveyors gives breathing motion to
the fire bed, keeping it open and free
for the circulation Of air and doing
away with the slice bar.
The principle of feeding the coal con-
tinuously into the furnace below and
the lifting effect of the conveyors does
away with the opening of the furnace
doors for firing and slicing of fires,
This saves the boiler and furnace from
the Objectionable thrush of cold air and
therefore eliminates smoke and de
structive gases and maintains uni,
form condition in the furnace and boil

There are those who believe Dan
Patch after having lowered the
worlds record IL times and paced
81 miles averaging under two min
utes has reached his limit. Those
who know the great horse best and
are watching him closest, state, how
ever, that he was never more fit
than he is this year. Under the care
of Harry Hersey, who has driven
him to successive world records dur
ing the past four seasons. The cham
pion has been rounded into splendid
form and shows every sign of pacing
with his old time speed and endur-
ance. He has been stepping miles
around two minutes with perfect
ease and the entire horse world is
anxiously waiting for the results Of
the effort which will be Dams first
and probably his last exhibition
against time this year.

Detroit will probably see the on
ly exhibition made this year by Dan
Patch, the worlds champion harness
horse, and l have told Mr.. Hersey
that expect him to drive Dan to a
new worlds record"
This statement, made by Mr.. Saw
age, owner of the champion and a
large number of other world IA
nous horses, is significant of many
things. 1t means that Mr.. Savage
has set his heart upon having his
wonderful horse pace still faster
mile than he has yet been able to do;
that he has refused hundreds of Of
fers for exhibition and decided that
it was wiser to get Dan into perfect
condition for one supreme effort. 1t
means that the wonderful horse will
be urged to go the most wonderful
mile in history.

An Electric Rat Killer.

An electric rat killer is the latest
means designed for slaughtering ro-
dents. Recently 1t was tried in Triest,
France, and 1t is claimed that it pro
duced good results.
The "killer" is made so that it can
be lowered into drains and other In
tested places 1t consists of a shallow
tray, with a bottom lined with closely
spaced metal points alternately con-
nected to the positive and negative ter
minals of a high tension electric cir
cult. The animals are promptly cleo

REINFORCED CONCRETE.
Material Proves Success In Gen.
structon Of Boats.

The utilization Of REINFORCED con-
crete as constructlona lnateria for
various purposes Tor which masonry,
wood or iron work has been previously
employed has undergone considerable
development during the past few years.
One Of the most novel applications Of
the system. however, Is that which has
been evolved and perfected by a well
known Italian engineer, Signor Carlo
Gabelllni Of Rome-namely, its adop-
ton for the construction OF boats and
floating structures in general, such as
pontoons. floating bridges. and so forth.
The system of construction is very
simple The keel is laid in the usual
manner, the iron rod reinforcement
being anchored to the armoring of the
former and being brought up the sides
of the hull in conformity with the de-
sired lines of the craft. The iron rod
generally used has diameter of about

LIFE SAVING DEVICES.
Advances Made In Apparatus For
Shooting Life Lines.


Consul John L. Grifiths Of Liverpool
reports that the advisory subcommit-
tee appointed by the British govern
ment to formulate report upon the
question Of British ships compulsorily
carrying life line throwing apparatus
conducted some most Important expert
ments In Liverpool recently, the re-
suits Of which are briefly described.
The apparatus submitted comprised
kites. buoys and different styles of
guns and rockets The first tests were
those of Vests drift buoys, which were
followed by the much improved Re-
gurk box kite. 1t was the opinion of
those who witnessed the experiments
that the kite is a successful invention
and will be very serviceable when the
wind Is blowing on lee shore. One
Of the most interesting of the tests was
made with balloon constructed of
gold beater's skin in two weights. 1t
carried a line for $500 yards. The
principal tests, however, were made
with rockets, cannon and shoulder
guns, which hare been carried TO a
high state of perfection. Much interest
was shown In the results of these tests,
both by the committee and the nauti-
cal experts.
The cannon threw line a distance
Of $40 fathoms, which indicates the
standard of efficiency to which it has
been brought. A projectile is inserted
In the cannon, and the cannon is fred
by means of friction tube which pro-
pels the projectile certain distance,
and from that point a rocket is dis
charged which carries the line to its
destination. The gun is portable and
easily handled Another interesting
feature is that during the daytime the
smoke indicates the direction in which
the line is carried, while at night the
fire of the rocket denotes the direction.
For shore use this gun can be placed
on small handbarrow, and, as there
are no elaborate accessories, it can be
readily worked by any person Of ordi-
nary intelligence. This gun is claimed
to be the most satisfactory apparatus
for heavy work, as, for example, from
the deck of large liners.-Consular Re-

How Tin Foil Is Made.

Tin foil, which is used extensively
for wrapping tobacco, certain food
products and other articles of COM
merce, is a combination of lead with a
thin coating Of tin on each side.
1t is made In the following manner:
First a tin pipe is made of thickness
proportionate to its diameter. This
nipe ia then aliea WITH molten lead
and rolled or beaten to the extreme
thinness required. In this process the
tin coating spreads simultaneously
with the spreading of the lead core and
continuously maintains a thin, even
coating of tin on each side Of the CEN
ter sheet of lead, even though 1t may
be reduced to thickness of thou
sandth OF an inch or less.

concrete is then applied to the skele-
ton fabric in layers inside and out

sions of the craft
The system has been utilized for the
peculiarly shaped boats which serve
to support the decks of the quaint
floating bridges to be found on the
river Pc Hitherto wooden boats have
been strung across the waterway, the
deck planxing, built in sections, being
laid transversely across them. The boats
are Of peculiar design, having sharp
pointed rising ends. In such re-en-
forced concrete the same general lines
are preserved, only the ends are made
blunter, a greater midship beam is pro
vided, while they have perfectly fiat
bottoms, forming a kind of pontoon.
Each boat is forty-fve feet in length,
with beam of twelve feet and a
depth of Sc feet. SO satisfactory have
the craft proved in service, the alb
sence of repairs being pre-eminently
distinguishing feature. that the wooden
boats for these quaint floating bridges
are being superseded by the REINFORCED
concrete craft as rapidly as possible,
over hundred having already been
built for this service.
