UTILIZE A NATURAL POWER
Volcanic Steam Found Valuable in
Italy for a Variety Of Use
full Purposes. y.

Clouds of su1phurous vapors fill the
air in the region about Lardarello, in
northern Tuscany, italy, and the oder
of hydrogen sulphide is plainly no
ticeable for miles around. Many hot
springs are also to be found in this
volcanic region and numerous Jets OF
steam at pressures as high as three
and half atmospheres and with tenn
peratures up to $50 degrees F. flow
from fissures and crevices in the
earth. The springs of the region and
this steam are strongly impregnated
with boric acid, which is extricated at
Lardarello in plant which utilizes
the steam for generating power and
for supplying heat in the various proc
esses in which heat is required.
In the generation Of power at the
boric acid plant the steam is con-
Quoted into low-pressure cylinder en-
gines which drive the various kinds of
machinery in use. A similar engine
is used for driving dynamo which
generates electricity for lighting the
plant and the homes Of the people
living in the vicinity. The natural
steam is also used by the people of
Lardarello for heating and cooking
purposes. It is now believed that the
heat of the steam will soon prove to
be of greater value than the boric
acid produced.-The Pathfinder.

CONFERENCES WITH "soss"
ABOUT APPOINTMENTS.
TOOKSENATOR'SADv|C
COLONEL WROTE HE DID NOT
WANT TO BECOME VICE
PRESIDENT OF US.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Syracuse, N. Y.-Theodore Roose-
welt admitted under cross-examination
Monday in the suit for alleged libel
which William Barnes has brought
against him that while governor he
had freely consulted the "Boss" of
the Republican party in New York
state in reference to the appointment
of officials in the state government,
and various legislative and political
matters. The "Eoos" named was
Thomas C. Platt, who at that time
represented New York in the United
States Senate.
The former President said he took
the advice of the senator in many
matters, among them appointing
Democrat to the office of tax commits
sioner, "to please Grady" whom the
Colonel described as a lieutenant
boss" of Richard Croker, then leader
of Tammany hall.
The testimony resulted from ques-
tions asked after letters of series
that passed between Roosevelt and
Platt had been read to the jury.
In one letter Col Roosevelt asked
the senator's advice about making
speeches; in another Senator Platt
told the colonel he had received q
copy of bill introduced by Grady, In
which the senator said he considered
it inadvisable to give Tammany from
100000 to $12,0OO,00O on an appro-
priation to expend upon the water
front of New York as sit would be
simply putting an unnecessary club IN
the hands of those people, with which
to knock our brains out"
And, in the last letter read, which
was dated in 1901, Col. Roosevelt told
the senator that he did not want to
be vice president of the United States,
as it was not an office in which he
could do anything; but he would like
to be governor of New York for an
other term.

According to the engineers office,

cut concerning the requirement OF
2003 acres at the north end OF the

for which condemnation suit was filed

That Is merely a step in the per-

left that other tracts Of land would
be taken by the government, not only
at this point but generally around the
island Of Oahu.
'+This is just a step in the strength
ening OF the defense of the island and
there is nothing to give the news
