ENGINES WHICH

of Steam.

There are many industrial occupa-

terials in explosive depots is an in
teresting illustration Of the prob

however, in great measure by the
recourse to fireless locomotives. AS
the designation implies, the locomo-
tives conform to the general design,
but are not provided with q fire or
heating device Of any kind. Instead
there is q reservoir or boiler, which
is filled partly with water and part

The latter is pumped into the boil

locomotive is taken from time to

Neglecting to light agas heater in
his room after turning on the fluid
when he was preparing for bed late
last night or early this morning,
Harry knight, fifty-hve years old, a
boarder at "a Main street, East Or

partially clothed, was discovered
stretched on the floor by Mrs. Arthur
Hanson, proprietor of the boarding
house. She smelled the escaping
fumes when she awoke at 6:45 O'Clock
this morning. DR.. NJ. Herbert Sim

investigated the case, said Knight $
death was an accident.
The aged man had been separated
from his family for three years and
had been boarding with Mrs. Han
son for two years. The latter said
knight had no particular time for
retiring at night and that she did not

What Thin Folks Should Do
To Gain Weight
Physicians Advice For Thin, Unde-
welcomed Men and Women

Thousands of people suffer from ex-
cessive thinness, weak nerves and
feeble stomachs who. having tried adj
vertised fiesh-makers, food-fads, ply
steal culture stunts and rub-on
creams, resign themselves to lifelong
skinniness and think nothing will
make them fat. Yet their case Is not
hopeless. A recently discovered re-
generative force makes fat grow after
years of thinness, and Is also I'M
equalled for repairing the waste OF
sickness or faulty digestion and for
strengthening the nerves. This re-
markable discovery is called Sargol.
Six strength giving, fat-producing
elements of acknowledged merit have
been combined in this peerless prep
aration, which is endorsed by eminent
physicians and used by prominent
people everywhere. IT is absolutely
harmless, inexpensive and efficient
A months systematic use of Sargol
should produce flesh and strength by
correcting faults Of digestion and by
supplying highly concentrated fats to
the blood. Increased nourishment is
obtained from the food eaten, and the
additional fats that thin people need
are provided. Leading druggists sup
| ply Sargol and say there is a large
demand for it.
While this new preparation has
given splendid results as a nerve
tonic and vitalizer, 1t should not be
used by nervous people unless they
wish to gain at least ten pounds OF

in Many Trades
Hold FederatiOn's Ear

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 19.-Juris-
dictional disputes in many trades
held the attention today of the dele
gates to the annual convention of the
American Federation of Labor. The
committee on adjustment, to whom
had been referred most of the troubles
regarding Jurisdiction, reported on
lilirty-nine cases. Some were annie
ably adjusted, in other instances the
disputes were referred by the C m
nittee to the executive council for
dnal adjustment, and about ten cases
were submitted to the delegates to be
fhreshed out on the floor OF the con-
Vention.
The dispute between the Interna-
tional Typographical Union and the
bookbinders' organization over con-
rol of the mailers employed in the
printing business was referred to the
executive council for Adjustment
after much debate.
The convention agreed TO give sup
port to the defense of the men who
were arrested in Michigan in con-
nection with the copper strike and TO
also aid the strikers at Atlanta and
at Gloversyille \. Y, where work
people have been out fourteen weeks.
The convention condemned the al

rurers to meet the representative of

CRITIC OF WILSON'S
HISTORICAL WORK
Says Hardly a Mention of
Woman's Work for Country
Is Made.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 19.--The pres
entation and discussion Of committee
reports on a wide range Of subjects
pertaining to municipal government
occupied the attention Of the dele
gates TO the twenty second annual
conference of the National Municipal
League here today
Mrs Charles A. Beard, of New
York, who delivered an address on
"Woman's Work for the City" de-
clared that if a visitor from Mars
were to read President Wilson's five
volume history of the American
people he would imagine that there
had been no women in this part of
the universe. from the landing OF
the pilgrims to the present day, for
scarcely a mention of women can be
found in all the hundreds Of pages
She continued: apparently
George has done It,"
Mrs. Beard believed the knell of
that sort Of history had been rung.
Women We're now to study history
for themselves.
Mrs. Beard outlined the wide range
of women's activities, particularly in
civic work. All the way from plant
ing window flower boxes to assump-
ton OF the judicial ermine.
1T is a matter of common knowl-
edge" she declared, that many a
municipal politician in office owes the
success OF his technical administra-
tion to the efficiency of a woman
under-secretary."
Il was significant. she continued,
that a great majority of the leaders
in women's work in municipalities
were no longer content with surrend-
ering their functions when they be-
came most interesting and important.
Hence the demand for the ballot.
After failing to arouse men to the
sense of their responsibilities. she
said. women had come to accept the
philosophy: IF you want thing
well done, do it yourself"

Great Northern Loon, Rare
Bird in These Parts, Killed
by Hunter Near Caldwell

A Great Northern loon, or. as it is
commonly known, a Great Northern
diver" weighing about fifteen pounds,
was killed yesterday by Charles H.
Mathews. of Elm road, Caldwell, while
duck hunting on the Troy meadows,
in Morris county. These birds are
very rarely found in this State, but
are very plentiful in the Great Lake
regions.
They are generally found in large
numbers near small lakes, where the
water is shallow. In size the birds re-
cause ] know it's very good for woun
semble large goose, but in color they
are black and white spotted and have
black head
Although they are not eatable. they
have a very heavy coat of feathers
which are very valuable. 1t is almost
impossible to shoot one when it is
facing the gunner, the feathers are so
hick. In some cases in the north
western part of the country hunters
.sill the birds and use the skins for
anoe seats. as they viii not wet
Trough and are very soft.
Mathews will bring the bird to this
city and have it mounted.
