Wealth and Responsibility.

Just before the late Albert A.
Sprague died he had the pleasure of
seeing a pension system for old en-
ployees-long a cherished project
put into effect. Three employees who
had served the concern long and faith
fully were made the first benefciaries.
January 1, 1914, large sum. subse-
quently increased, was set aside as
the nucleus of the pension fund. 1t
was determined that the benefciaries
should not be required to contribute.
The only requirement Is that the bene-
ficiaries should have service record
of at least twenty years and be sixty
years of age. The plan not only az
fords encouragement to the sober and
deserving employee, but also illus
trates in a striking way that sense of
responsibility for wealth and the well
fare of those who help create it, which
is the best characteristic Of the best
type of American business man. It is
a noble monument to the public spirit
of one who was, in so many other
ways, one of Chicago's most public
spirited citizens.-Chicago Herald.

CAPPED THE PuRsER'S STORY
War Correspondents Yarn About
Ponto Was Close to the Limit In
Nature Faking.

One of the few American war CORE
spondents who really saw something
Of the European war in its first stages
was coming home on the Lusitania not
many trips ago. He sat at the purser's
table, and the purser one evening
told truthful nature tale of having
been on a ship that once passed
through a school Of whales in mid
ocean.
"All of them were sound asleep,
said the purser with a wink to an &C
complete, "and all Of them were snor
ing. The noise was deafening.'
''It must have been," said the CORE
spondent; but when I was a boy out
in Cincinnati, Ohio, there used to be q
whistling whale that lived in the ocear
just in front of my fathers house. His
name was Ponto and he would answer
to it-answer by whistling. You see
his blow hole was clogged with bar
nacles and every time he spouted he
made a sound like siren on fire
boat.
"Ponto was great pet with all the
ships that traded in and out of Cincin
natl. The pilots got to know him, ant
when they were entering port anc

tried to pass her, headed out. But he
got confused and gave the whistle TO-

Who Go to Church?

The facts about church membership
are contained in United States Census
Bulletin No. 103, and the percentage of
church membership in the total popu-
ation is given for the year 1906, &c
years after Kansas had become pro-
hibition state. According to this tab
ulation, which is the latest obtainable,
the lowest percentage of church mem
bership was in Oklahoma, including In.
dian territory, the rate being 1872. The
rate in New York was 43.7; in Pennsyl-
vania, 43; In Illinois, 1873; In Nebras-
ka, 32.4; in Maine, 29.8, and in Kan

mines IN THE AIR
Americans Idea Of Combating
the Zeppelins.
PhiladelphIan Has Designed Project
Which He Believes Will Be Enec-
tive II Air Raids Should Be
Put Into Operation.

Picture a monster Zeppelin, as long
as an ocean liner. laden with tons OF
death-dealing explosives, creeping
through the murky mist of a winter
night toward London. Picture, again,
| II you can, the skies turned to lame
and the heavens shattered as the hum
dreds of thousands Of cubic feet OF
hydrogen gas explodes, scattering the
sinister craft In tiny pieces over the
streets and housetops of the city.
That is the graphic sketch of what
Is likely to occur II the Zeppelins at
tempt a serious raid on London. as
given by Joseph A. Steinmetz of Phil
adelphia. Mr.. Steinmetz is the orig
lnator of the first serious considered
scheme of mining the air and the in
ventor Of the trailing bombs for the
destruction of dirigibles.
In few words, the plan devised by
Mr.. Steinmetz is to install on all the
buildings in threatened area large
number of hydrogen balloons. They
are held ready for instant use, and
each is attached to a fine wire two
miles long, wound on windlass. The
wire is so small that mile of 1t
weighs but four pounds, while it has a
tensile strength of 120 pounds.
The Zeppelin. sighted by the look,
out, would be permitted to proceed un-
| til almost over the objective point.
Then, simultaneously, scores of the
balloons, to each of which Is attached
a highly explosive, infiammable
bomb, would be released.
Each bomb is surrounded with a
ring of hair triggers, and the slight.
est touch would cause an explosion
which would unquestionably ignite
the gas in the dirigible. The plan is
| to send a certain number of the mines
to a given altitude, while others will
be anchored at different heights, thus
allowing the Zeppelin no chance to
escape.
The other method of destroying the
German craft is along similar lines,
but differs In that it is conducted
through the use of aeroplanes. Each
machine is equipped with bombs such
as are used In the air mires. The

trailing wire Is wound on spool,
which can be operated by the pres
sure of the aviator's thumb and
stopped at will.
The aeroplanes being swifter, would
be sent against the dirigible in fiocks
of three or four. The aviators would
depend on their speed and the great
altitude to which they can ascend to
keep out of range. At the proper time
the bombs would be released on the
wires and a dash made at the enemy.
In addition to the triggers, which
can be locked until the bomb is ready
for use, the bombs are fitted with
sharp graphing hooks. AS the wire
is drawn across the big gas bag the
hooks will catch and draw the trig-
gers into contact with the envelope.
The explosion will follow.

INCREASES HEAT OF COAL
Sound Reasons Why the Addition Of
Little Water Should Produce
Good Results.

When the blacksmith desires the in
tensest heat his forge is capable of he
invariably throws a little water upon
the coal. The same course is pur-
sued by the stoker who would get the
utmost from his boilers.
And the poorer the quality of the
coal the more imperative the neces-
sity for wetting it.
1t seems paradoxical, for from the
beginning all people everywhere have
regarded water as the one reliable
agency for extinguishing fire. Such,
indeed, it really is, if used in proper
quantity, as experience has amply
demonstrated
Chemistry explains the paradox very
simply, however when it informs US
that water is composed of oxygen and
hydrogen in the proportion of two tc
one. That Is to say, in every molecule
of the fluid there are two atoms of the
former and one of the latter.
Now oxygen is the chief agent IL
combustion OxydiZation is syno
nym for burning. The rusting of iron,
| the corrosion of silver and the burn
ing of wood are identical processes.
all due to the agency of this powerful
element which is so widely distributed
| through all nature To feed oxygen
| to flames is greatly to intensity them,
therefore. This is exactly what Is
| done, in fact, when they are famed.
Hydrogen, on the other hand, is a
gas which burns readily and with the
most intense heat
Very evidently, if water is separat-
ed into its constituent elements, the
oxygen and the hydrogen, no longer
bound together, are able each to per-
form its natural functions. The for
mer adds greatly to combustion, and
the latter not only burns readily, but
materially intensifies the heat.
This is precisely what occurs when
small quantity eff water is added to
the coal fed to the flames. There is
not enough of the fluid to extinguish
the fire. Instead the fire acts upon the
water, dissolving the bonds which
unite it's component gases, thus set
ting the oxygen free to accelerate
combustion and converting the hydro
gen into fuel of tremendous heating
power
In throwing a little water upon the
coal therefore, the blacksmith attains
the same results as if he added mate
rally to the draft produced by the
bellows, and at the same time poured
a little hydrogen upon the fames
The resultant heat is not to be pro-
duced from coal alone under ordinary
