Throwing Away Coal.

A report by the Bureau of Mines
shows that we took about half bill
lion tons of coal from the earth last
year, and in doing it left underground,
in such condition that its recovery is
highly improbable. quarter Of a bill
lion tons. For every ton we. gel to
the surface we throw away half tor.
Having got our ton to the surfs &c, we
extract only about ten per cert of its
energy Partly, this is because we
don t know any better--not yet hav-
ing discovered. more economical meth
DDS of converting the latent energy
into mechanical power. But where we
do know better We fail to act upon the
knowledge. Thus, sixteenth of an
inch of scale in a boiler means loss
of twenty-five per cent in efficiency,
and the waste from boiler scale in To-
conotives alone is estimated at fifteen
million tons of coal year. Out-of- date
coke ovens cause loss equivalent to
one million mechanical horsepower
Annually Out-of-date furnaces and
careless firing cause another hugh loss
Ito say nothing of the annoyance and
destruction wrought by sooty showers
outside the factory. Again, out-of-
date coke ovens have wasted millions
of tons Of ammonium sulphate, which,
if used on the soil as fertilizer, would
undoubtedly have sensibily increased
crop yields to the acre.
Coal is only one among many in.
stances Of waste. It's out of these
vast losses that the future workman
will get his two thousand dollars a
year provided, of course, he insists
upon it strenuously enough.-saturday

FACTORIES WILL DISCHARGE
Cards Posted in all Plants in the CRY
Declare THAT Breaking Quarantine
win be Followed With the Immediate
Discharge of any Employee.

The campaign to secure enforcement
Of quarantine regulations in Kenosha
was continued in the Municipal Court
on Monday afternoon when two more
arrests were made GA the complaint Of
Health Commissioner DR.. j. J. Nc
Shane and one of the men forced to
ray a heavy fine. August Leske,
brother of Herman Leske, who died
from scarlet fever on Saturday after
noon, at his home in the Jenhe street
neighborhood, was brought into court
charged with breaking quarantine.
Leske admitted that he had gone to the
bed side of his brother shortly before
his death and had violated the quaran-
tine regulations. In fning the man
Judge Randall expressed to him his
feelings in regard to his desire to see
his brother but he pointed out to him
that the breaking of quarantine in
such cases was very liable to bring
spread of disease and that foP this
reason the court must insist on his
paying the penalty. Leske was fined
ten dollars and the costs of the action
and he paid the fine and costs amount
ing to nearly $500. The second case
was that Of John Urban. Urban lives
in o quarantined house on Edwards
street. His home is in the lower fiat
Of the building and he had been warned
that he must not go into the building
if he desired to continue at his work.
Urban declared that the officials were
mistaken and that he had not visited
his wife and children after the quaran-
tine had been established Judge Ran
dali held the case open for two weeks
pending further Investigation. Similar
action was taken in the case of the
state against Rosa Rizzo which had
been continued 0fter hearing on last
Saturday. In every case Judge Ran
dali explained to the defendants and to
the crowd of people at the court that
it was the intention of the city to main
tain guarantees with view of pre-
venting the spread of disease.
Today cards making discharge as the
penalty for breaking quarantine are be
ing placed in factories of the city.
These cards leave no chance for a mis-
understanding and they are signed by
the managers of the factories. They
mean that if any man who is working
in these plants is found going into
houses that have been placarded for
either scarlet fever or diphtheria he
will at once be discharged by the man
ayers of the company. The rule is to
apply to all cases of employees Of the
companies.
The city with view of furthering
the work Of the health department in
stamping out the disease has added a
new quarantine officer to the force in
the person of Louis Heller. The new
official is giving most of his time to
the guarding of houses in which cases
f scarlet fever and diphtheria have been
discovered. No new cases of the dis
ease have been reported in the past
four days and it is said that there are
less than dozen cases in the city, but
the officials are taking every precau-
tion to prevent a possible outbreak of
the disease with the, coming of the win
ter weather which is regarded as es-
pecially suitable to the development Of
scarlet fever cases.
