The Progress of Oil Fuel.

The increasing use of fuel oil in
place of coal in steam vessels is one of
the most important questions that at
feet navigation at the present time.
All the railroads in Russia, as well as
the steamers on the Caspian Sea, now
use liquid fuel. while on our west coast
its use is also quite general. There is
a motor-driven cruiser being con-
structed for the British navy, and the
Hamburg American Line is having a
steamer built which will be equipped
with Diesel oil engine. While Great
Britain has no home supply of fuel oil,
she has it in considerable quantity in
her colonial possessions, and to over
come her disadvantage in having to
import oil fuel has had constructed at
Plymouth and Chatham great storage

reservoirs, also old battleships are
being utilized as Oil tanks, all of which
shows that the British admiralty is
fully alive to the necessity of antici-
pating the passing of coal as fuel to
give place to oil.
1t is, moreover, estimated that about
one-third of the ships of the British
navy are now burning oil either exclu-
sively or as a supplementary fuel, while
our own navy has recently been in
creased by quite a fleet of oil burning
torpedo boat destroyers, while this fuel
is being used as an auxiliary in several
of our newest battleships. This COM
modify, therefore which has hitherto
been merely an article of trade, will in
future be bound up with vital strate
gical questions, as it's superiority has
been demonstrated through proving
that a smaller weight of oil is neces-
sary to provide the same power as coal,
that it can be slowed on board ship
without manual labor and without in
terruption to the routine duties of the
ship and many other reasons unneces-
sary to MISUNDERSTANDING.
The Schoolship Adams.
Marine Journal: The Philadelphia
schoolship Adams will be equipped
with wireless telegTaphy before she
sails on her annual summer cruise May
Is. 1t is interesting to note, from in
formation received from Capt. Lodge
Cotton, one of her directors that the
Adams's officers are all merchant men,
and graduates of the schoolship. 1t
would be difficult to find anyone better
fitted to educate the young men who
are fortunate enough to gain admis-
sion to one of these training ships,
than men who received their knowl-
edge of navigation on a schoolship and
who later have risen to command in
the merchant service. The directors
of the Adams evidently appreciate this
fact in full.
The Wireless Ship Act.
The navy department will receive
during May and June, between the
hours of 8 a. m. and 6 p. M, at it's
shore stations wireless messages from
merchant vessels which are required
under the wireless ship act to be
equipped with such apparatus after
sells to give evidence that they have
complied with the law. These mes
sages will be transmitted from the
navy department to the department of
commerce and labor, which will advise
the proper collectors of customs. Mes
sages sent for this purpose should be
prefaced for Commerce. Labor, Wash
ington, giving name of vessel, nation
ality, full name of master and opera
tor and should be sent from a point
preferably showing the average maxi
mum radius of the apparatus with
which the vessel is equipped.

A City Pier Lease.
Marine Journal: The New York
American is responsible for the state
ment that the Fabre Line, a foreign
corporation, leased a pier at the foot of
Thirty-firs street, South Brooklyn,
December 10, 1908, for a term of ten
years at an annual rental of $685.
S5O.5O. The outer 40 feet of said pier
II is reported, is rented to the Russian
American line by the Fabre line for
$4,000 a year. If the foregoing state
ment is correct this foreign corporation
is making the handsome sum Of $13,-
1880 per year over and above the
sum it pays for the exclusive right to
this pier, also obtaining pier use for
it's own steamers free Of charge. But
this is not all. The Marine Journal is
informed upon reliable authority that
the Fabre Line is charging and COL
lecting wharfage from all lighters
making deliveries of freight in con-
nection with their own business which
is another source of large income
which they derive from this low lease,
while the right to collect such under
the conditions is questionable, as it is
not customary with other lines
Piers leased from private dock-o own
ing corporations to steamship COM
panies are supposed to pay rental
commensurate with the value of occu-
patton and any revenue derived
through wharfage charges, collected
from vessels outside of their own bust
ness, reverts to the owners of the piers.
Such rule should apply to the city as
pier owner also. But to charge
lighters wharfage when bringing cargo
for transportation by ship, or taking 1t
from the ship to other parts of water
front, is an exorbitant part charge and
initiates naturally against the en-
couragement of commerce to make
New York a distributing point.
The Fabre Line pier is 100 feet
long. The land, pier and shed repre-
sent a cost of S1,655,790 to the city
and is described as the finest pier in
North America" At its present rental
1t does not pay the interest to meet
sinking fund charges to the city, while
according to the above statement il
pays the lessees a handsome profit on
the lease, besides giving it's ships free
wharfage on a ten-year lease with the
privilege OF another ten years for $40
1858 per year. 1t is due the present
commissioner of docks and ferries to
state that this contract was made with
the department before he became its
head.

James Wilson or Jimmy as he Is called

FITTING UP NURSERY
FURNITURE APPROPRIATE FOR
THE OCCUPANTS.
Suitable Room, with Proper Environ.
ments. is Something Child Has a
Right to Demand-Rues More
Sanitary Than Carpets.

The furniture of a nursery should be
simple and substantial, but not over
powering and IL of proportion to the
little inmates of the room. There
should be at least one "child-size" ia
BILE and several chairs to match. The
furniture should be low and broad and
sufficiently heavy so that it is not cas-
lily upset. The manufacturers today
are making delightful sets OF furniture
for children. and the prices are reason
able, so hat there is little excuse for
inappropriate furniture.
So many nurseries are just make
shifts-the sewing-room or the den is
appreciated for baby's headquarters,
and no effort is made to transform the
room by banishing those things that
are unnecessary and unsuited TO a nur'
sery. Just as with Is grown-ups,
there are certain rooms in which we
prefer to sit. the room containing our
favorite books and pictures in all prob
ability-so il is with the children. The
child grows 10 love his nursery and
TO feel at ease there II it is a suitable
room with the proper environment.
Rugs are preferable to carpet in a
nursery as they are more sanitary. II
a rug cannot be obtained IN the de-
sirable size. a carpet may be made in.
to a rug of almost any dimensions.
Notified velvets are suitable for a
nursery. their effect being similar to
that of a plain carpet. but they are
more serviceable. Wilton rugs and
the ingram rugs made in Scotland. are
also used for nurseries. The hand.
woven rag rugs are particularly appro,

able. The rugs are now made with

Max interrupted us just then, and
asked II we knew where Mr.. HARRISON

the telephone together and have
enough left over to make another.
Where do you suppose HARRISON hides
the tools? I'm working with a cork

/ heard nothing more of the trouble
that night. Max went to Jim about
it, and Jim said angrily that only a
fool would interfere between a man
and his wife-wives. Whereupon Max
retorted that a fool and his wives
we're soon parted, and left him. The
two principals were coldly civil to
each other, and smaller issues we're
lost as the famine grew more and
more insistent. For famine 1t was.
They worked the rest of the We

Individually our pride was at low
ebb, but collectively it was still form

Conspicuous Styles No Longer In
Vosue-simpIicity Has Replaced
Ostentation.

Conspicuous hatpins have been run
to ground and the we~ll-dressed woman
strives for plain effects. Some prefer
the ordinary black or white headed
pins at one cent apiece.
New ones suited to refined tastes
are Of carved ivory. These come in
plaque and diamond shape, in floral
designs and Chinese characters for
good luck and happiness.
Equally stylish is the hatpin of tor.
toise shell, with round or square top,
in two tones Of shell and sometimes
banded or bordered with a dark cen.
ter, a lighter ring and a dark rim. On
white hats Irish crochet motifs are
good.
A hatpin top that al be made al
home is a round, square or diamond
of colored beads combined with a de
sign in larger square or oval beads
The beadworker can easily make set.
Of pins to correspond with d~iferen'
hats.
