A Hot Spot.

II believe that Monterey, Mexico, is
the hottest spot in the world In the

have seen the thermometer register as
high as 12O degrees in the late after
noon. 1t was so hot that the natives
who ventured on the streets would
hug the foot wide shade of the low
buildings like lichen clings to tree
bark. But here's the funny part of it.:
When the sun sets it begins to cool of.
and at night it is positively necessary
to sleep under blankets. The nights
are delightfully."- cool. and presume it
is because one is able to get a good
sleep that it is possible to live in that

All you need to do to eXtinguiSh a
petroleum or gasoline fire is to put
foam on it. This simple remedy for a
class of flames that has baffled firemen
70. years comes in a report from Con-
SUI, Thomas n. Norton, of Chemnitz
Germany. The use of water has only
served to spread such fires, and as a
rule, the firemen have been obliged to
stand by nelplessly until the flames
exhausted themselves from lack of fuel
In a very few cases the use of steam
has been effective, but usually an oil
fire burns itself out.
Now it appears that the Germans
have perfected a scheme for killing oil
fires with foam. The apparatus en-
ployed consists of a simple metal CYL
inder provided with a long spout and
divided into two chambers. One cham
Der is charged with an aqueous solu-
ton of potaSh-alum and sodium sui
Dhate, and licOrice- root extract. The
cylinder is so arranged that on being
reversed the two solutions mingle as
they issue from the spout. The result
is a prompt evolution of carbon diox-
ide. which in contact with the licorice
solution. forms an exceedingly stiff and
persistent foam.
Heads of fire departments have tested
this scheme and pronounced the foam
fire extinguisher a success. They say
it will prove especially valuable In
places where cOmbustible liquids are
stored. such as groceries, drug stores,
automobile garages and motor yachts.

Commodities Clause Case.

NEW YORK, April 24.-In the
course of the speculation in Wall street
there came out a rather novel way OF
looking at the commodities clause case.
If the railroads were forced to dis

ran. they must segregate them by
some such plan as is proposed Tor

cation of a holding company and the
distribution of the stock in the holding
company gratis to stockholders of the
railroad company. In case of an un-
favorable decision, in other words,
every anthracite road would be forced
to cut melon by segregation of
portion of its properties, and such a
process is now regarded everywhere IN
stock exchange circles as bull argu-
ment

BIOGRAPHICAL CALENDAR,
April "a, 1909.


John Brown Herreshoff, the blind
shipbuilder, was born on this dav of
April, in 1S41, in Bristol, r. l. He was
one of the Herreshoff brothers who
formed the famous Herreshoff Manu-
featuring company. Their father, Chas.
Frederick Herresho1f, was the son of
an educated Russian who had come to
America and established himself in
Bristol as a naval architect There
were six brothers in the family. all of
whom were highly successful in diff
ferent lines of endeavor. One brother
James Brown Herreshoff, graduated in
chemistry. and became the head of a
chemical plant, and later invented the
coil boiler in common use. Nathaniel
Green HerreshOff studied mechanical
engineering and designed fast boats
and their engines. John Brown Here
shOff. who started very early in ship
building with his father, lost his eve
sight at the age of Is. Yet in spite of
this handicap he became almost as
famous as the chemist and the engi-
neer brothers. In 1864 he began the
business of yacht building in Bristol,
associated at first with his father and
formed the firm of Herreshoff and
Stone. For many years the business
was confined to the construction of
sailing vessels, and a number of re-
markedly fast boats like the Qui Vive
and the Sadie, famous in their day.
We're constructed. The company be-
gan making steam vessels about 1870
and in 1875 undertook the construction
of steel yachts, torpedo boats and war
vessels.
In 1879 the famous Herreshoff
Manufacturing company was formed,
uniting the efforts of the three broth
ers. John Brown Hereshoff, who be-
came known as the blind shipbuilder,
was present. BY the aid of his fathers
eyes he planned outlines and details
with astonishing accuracy, and was
able to aid his brothers in the per-
fections of their inventions. Under the
management of the blind shipbuilder,
the company acquired the reputation
for constructing the fastest vessels in
the world, which was maintained up to
the present date having constructed
several of our late successful cup de-
tenders. The Herreshoff Manufacturing
company, has done work for the Unit
ed States government, and many other
American and European states. AL
though the blind shipbuilder made no
great inventions of his own, his broth
ers give him great credit for his aid
in perfecting theirs. He married Sarah
Kilton, of Boston, Mass, in 1870. The
story of his life should be a great en-
enlargement to those who groan be-
meath the burden of physical afflic-
tionS.

BOARD Up AGAINST 1t.

The board of inquiry which is to de-
termine whether or not the soldiers or
cOlored regiments implicated IN the
Brownsville episode may be reinstated
in the army, is beginning to realize the
MAGNITUDE of the task. The comment
is made that a year is a very short
time to decide the question, lnasmuch
as congress has been haggling over 1t
for more than two years without ar
irving at very definite conclusion.
The board will be occupied some time
with sizing up the work before 1t and
making preparations. There are many
witnesses to be heard, folios of testi-
nonv to be taken, and many other
things to be done before the officers
constituting the board will venture to
pronounce an opinion. All this will re-
ouire many weeks If not months. The
members are all now in Washington,
hit the court will not organize until
. definite program has been mapped
ont This is done in order that advan-
tage may ibe taken of the full year al
lowed bv congress in which to come to
a conclusion.
The prevailing opinion among officers
is that practically all the men will be
reinstated. as the disposition of the
war department is to give them the
benefit of the doubt. If this is the
case. further complications as to pay
and other details will probably ensue
In anv event, the affair is likely to re-
main a cause celebre for some years
to come.
