new FUEL TRUST
PLANS MONOPOLY
Syndicate Proposes to Retain
Control on Coast by Buy=
ing Australian Coal
Manager of Western Company
May Continue Work With
British Concern

Announcement was made yesterday
that the English corporation that has
purchased the Western fuel company
has also entered into large contracts for
Australian coal. 1t proposes by this
means to retain the dominant position
in the California fuel market. For
many years the Western fuel company
has been known as the local coal trust.
Although ]. B. Smith, president of the
concern, always denied that he fixed
the price of fuel in this state. the pop
ular impression has remained un-
changed 1t was the idea of the British
syndicate in making the purchase to
acquire control of the coal on this sec
tion of the coast. To make assurance
doubly sure immense contracts have
been concluded with the Australian
companies.
The new owners will not take over
the Western fuel properties for some
weeks. The details of their organiza
ton are still to be worked out. Neither
party was prepared to make the trans
action public, but were inclined to re-
gard The Calls exclusive announcement
as premature.
The English company is desirous of
retaining James B. Smith as mana ger
of the extensive properties. Smith has
named his price, which is somewhat In
excess of the amount the foreigners
are disposed to pay. Negotiations are
now in progress by which Smith may
be persuaded to continue in manage
rial capacity.
One of the assets that has appealed
particularly to the British purchasers
is the coal land on Vancouver island.
Near Nanaimo the Western fuel COM
pany owns $4,000 acres of rich deposits.
After the British people complete the
purchase they will enlarge the ship
ping facilities of the concern and en-
deavor to extend the business along the
Pacific coast.

Making no effort TO conceal their In

given to understand that the Ocean

The explanation did not satisfy the
women. They pointed out that. relying
on the written permission of the board
of education. they had raised money
for the event and were at present en-
gagged in embroidering a large, hand
some banner with teh intention of pre-
senting it to the new school. So great,
in fact, was the furor caused by the
affair that, after the dedication of the
school, the club intended to discard all

elared Mrs. Sherman Palmer. wife of
the president of the Sheridan club
"On receiving permission from the
board we raised funds and went TO
certain expenses and much labor. And
suddenly that permission was with

MAN OF MANY PARTS
UNPOPULAR WITH WRITER

This matter of choosing ones Ire
work is one of the severest tasks
person has to meet. Many men do not
find their spheres of greatest useful
ness until middle age, while others
never find them. Education ought 10
help one to find his true sphere. the
great difficulty with so many young
people is that they show an adapJa-
biliry to too many things; they be-
come what their fellows or instructors
call versatile. says the Omaha Bee.
The versatile man sometimes is the
worst handicapped man. He can do a
dozen things fairly we'll and he spends
his time between them, scattering his
fire instead of concentrating on one
object a single purpose and learning TO
do that in the aggregate better than
he could do each of the eleven The
man who with a bent for music can
play half a dozen instruments is not
nearly so likely to play as we'll as
the man who becomes expert in the
use of but one. The versatile man is
seldom more than an amateur, being
kept out of the professional class sim
ply because he has never learned to
concentrate his full powers on one
thing. Young men and women must
look out for these pitfalls. The only
talent that ever accomplishes anything
worth while is that trained along

Los ANGELES, July 14.-Hawley O.
Crippen, who is employed by the Sunset
telephone company in this city, ad-
mitted today that he had received a
letter from his father, DR.. II. H. Grip

early in May. Doctor Crippen said that
his wife had gone to California to settle
an estate and had died of pleuro- -pneu,
monia in San Francisco. This letter
was received from London.
Hawley Crippen says that he has not
since heard from his father, and knows
nothing regarding his present where
abouts. He asserts, however, that he
has received several letters from mem

London, asking him If it were true that
Doctor Crippen's wife had died at

These letters, stated Crippen, said that

is very short it is still appreciable, and
the maximum pressure is not secured
until all the gas has been ignited.
1t is very desirable that we secure
this maximum pressure just after the
piston has started downward on the
power stroke. To accomplish this the
more rapidly the engine is running
the earlier the charge must be fixed.
Careful tests have shown that the
best results are secured in the aver
age engine, running at 1000 r. p. NJ
by advancing the timer so that the
spark occurs at from 20 to 80 degrees
before center.
The expansion of the gas in the
cylinder of the average motor pro-
duces a maximum pressure-with full
throttle-of about 300 pounds per
square inch Ohe greatest pressure I
have ever observed being 600 pounds
per square ineh); but this lasts for
an instant only, the receding piston
lowering it very fast. The mean, eff
ficient pressure, meaning the average
pressure for the full stroke, rarely
exceeds seventy pounds per square
inch, and often is as low as so pounds.
The pressure, of course, is much the
greater during the first half of the
power stroke; in fact, two-thirds or
more of the work in the average en-
CINE is done on this portion of the
stroke.

where the connecting rod F and the
crank r are in a position so that the
angle O-E-F is a right angle, the
effect of the pressure on the piston is
the greatest, but at this point the
pressure is often lowered sufficiently,
so that the actual maximum turning
moment occurs earlier.
AS the crank continues from e to c
the turning effect rapidly lessons both
on account of the angle between the
connecting rod and the crank. and the
rapidly lowering pressure until when
the crank reaches H (forty-five de-

At twenty to thirty degrees before
the end of the power stroke, or even
earlier on engines running at very

panding gas on the piston is very
small at H, therefore practically no
power is lost by this early opening of
the exhaust.
This early opening of the exhaust is
necessary because the cylinder con-
tents should be nearly at atmospheric
pressure when the piston starts up
ward on the exhaust stroke, otherwise
there will be considerable back pres
sure developed on this stroke.
Whatever the back pressure might
be. 1t is internal work for the engine
and lessons the effectual power just SO
much Besides, the hot gas being re-
tained through the exhaust stroke
provides just so much more heat
which must be taken care of by the
cooling system.
The exhaust valve should be kept
open some time after the piston has
completed the exhaust stroke, usually
five to twenty degrees, so as to allow
the escape of all the exhaust gas pos
sible.
The intake and exhaust valves are
often Tapped with good results.
Tapped valves" is that condition
where the valves are so timed that
the intake valve begins to open be-
fore the exhaust is closed. The car l
am driving opens the intake at five
degrees after center and closes the
exhaust twenty degrees after center,
''lap" of fifteen degrees. This method
of valve timing accomplishes two
things; it allows the inertia of the
moving gas to more completely empty
the cylinder of exhaust. The cam
cannot open or close the, valve in
stantly, and when the valves are
Tapped the actual valve opening is
greater at the time when it is most
desirable to have that opening.
For instance, If the exhaust valve
closed exactly at the end of the ex
haust stroke, there would be a good
many degrees of the latter portion
of this stroke where the valve was so
nearly closed that the gas could hard
ly be forced through the valve. How
ever, if it isn't closed until, say fif-
teen degrees after center, there is yet
considerable opening when the piston
completes ats stroke In this case, if
the valves were not Tapped the open
ing of the intake would be excessively
late

DIVORCES ARE INCREASING.
Statistics Show One Divorce 70 Eight
Marriages in 1909.

LANSING. Mich. Dec. 23.-There
were one-eighth as many divorces as
marriages In Michigan last year. In
1909 there were 3.5lS divorces grant
ed. an increase of over go over 1904,
which was the first year that divorce
statistics were compiled
The marriages are based on the IN
married population at marriageable
ages. while the divorce statistics are
drawn from the number Of married
people in Michigan. hence there can
be no direct comparison between the
frequency OF marriage and divorce

these events. without analysis of the
figures.
During 1909 II is noted that 27353

number corresponds toNs rate of 20.5
persons married per 1900 estimated
