Boilers Heated BY Electricity.

The curious anomaly of steam boil
ers heated by electricity y attracting
serious attention in certain localities
Such boilers have been set up of ca
pacities up to 1900 kilowatts, or 1000
horsepower, taking electric current Of
voltages up to 10000, and offer advan-
tages where coal is high and water
power cheap, as in certain woOdpulp
and paper factories of northern Eu-
rope. Steam is generated by passage
of the electric current through wa
ter. Narrow vertical tubes Of in
sulating material contain water, and
are connected at top and bottom with
the interior of the boiler. Alternating
current is sent through the water col
umns, the tubes with three phase cur
rents being connected in groups of
three. Moving the electrodes In the
tubes regulates the current strength.
An efficiency of 95 per cent Is claimed
and one watt of electric energy is
stated to produce nearly four pounds
of steam.

If 1t had been her own hat it would
not have mattered so greatly though
any hat is hat in these days, and
Susan had just two to her name.
However. these two had been picked
out deliberately with a view to retrim-
ming, and, in extreme cases. Sue could
change morning turban into chic
evening toque, with a bend here and
there and twist of gold tissue over
the black crown. and possibly flying
pennant Of uncurled ostrich at the
back.
But this hat belonged to Madeline
and 1t did not need the Paris label in
side the crown to tell Sue it had cost
more than all Of hers for an entire
year.
1t was wide-brimmed, of rich crushed
black velvet, with a circle of tiny
curled feathers outlining the crown,
and one ornament, duh gold Venetian
pin set deeply with uncut rubies. real
ones, too. She knew. Madeline had
told her Of finding 1t at little shop on
the grand canal the day before they
sailed for home
Just as the elevated train rounded
the curve at Sixth avenue and Fifty
third street gust of wind had caught
IL as 1t had gone sailing In midair and
blown 1t out of sight.
She had left the train at the next
station and hurried back, bareheaded
to search for it, but the street was
clear Of vehicles at this hour and the
hat had vanished. There remained only
explanation Of Madeline.

an hour later when he stopped at the
Briardale inn, up near Riverdale-on-

called to the compromising evidence.

Growth Of CANNING INDUSTRY.

The canning industry has within a
few years grown to colossal proper
tions. 1t fs an art that dates back a
little more than 100 years. We owe
this art Of preserving foods through
rendering them sterile by means of
heat and maintaining them in that
condition In hermetically sealed con-
tainers, to Frenchman, Nicholas Ap-
pere, who began his experiments in
canning In 1896 at Chalmons sur
Marine. He worked and experiment.
ed for 10 years and In 1910 had prac-
tically perfected his system.
The first canning In the United
States was for the preservation of
sea foods. 1t was not until the
decade following the Civil war that
the superiority Of canned foods
over those which were preserved By
sailing, drying and picking became
recognized Today the United States
is the largest producer and consumer
of canned foods.

Buyers Have to Give AL Their. Money
for a Single Purchase.

MEXICO CITY, Nov. l ASSOCIATED
Press The most persistent phrase en-
eountered by the buying public in Mexico
at present is mo hay cambio,' there is
no change" The silver in the Mexican
peso, 50-cent piece and the smaller coins,
is worth more than the face value of the
coin so this money has been boarded by
many persons and sold for their silver
content
The result is that "cambio,' or change,
has disappeared and persons who buy or
sell are forced to pay from four to seven
per cent for silver pieces from brokers.
Most merchants refuse to make small sales
if they are forced to give change, assert
ing they would lose money in the transac-
ton. 1

(gold), is practically useless as money in
stores or cafes when the purchase is fol-

sTEERED BY A SIXTH SENSE.
Exploits of Blindfolded Norwegian Puz-
gle Expert Danish Scientists.

Scientists in Denmark are puzzled by
a Norwegian, one Emil Knudsen, who,
although blindfolded and carefully
watched, steered steamer through the
intricate channels of the harbor of Co
penhagen, keeping a true course and ad-
roitly lodging other vessels He explains
this by claiming the possession of a sixth
sense"
knudsen is a man of middle age When
he came to Denmark from Christiana, he
became at once an object Of interest to
both. scientist and layman. He was put
through many experiments by one of the
leading nerve specialists of Europe, and
as result the specialist suggested the
trip into the harbor Knudsen said that
he could guide himself anywhere without
using his eyes, and steamer was char
tered to put him to supreme test knud-
sen had no knowledge of the harbor. He
requested that a person Knowing the
channel should hold two finger tips against
the side of his head. Prof. Fridenreich
consented to this, and himself pressed
two finger tips against Knudsen's temples
The man handled the wheel without a
sign of nervousness or uncertainty. 1t
was impossible for him to see, vet he
took more than dozen sharp corners
and followed zigzag course throughout
All the scientists who witnessed the dem
onstration said Knudsen possesses a mys
FERROUS power that actually may be a

whereas we knew almost nothing of the

MEETS IN SPECIAL SESSION.
Massachusetts, Legislature Has Several
Subjects Before it For Consideration

BOSTON, Nov. l9.-The Massachusetts
legislature is sitting again 1t convened
in special session yesterday morning with
large attendance to consider, emergency
measures that are recommended by Gov
ernor Calvin Coolidge. Chief among these
measures is the street railway problem + Fl
At least seven matters are now on the
desk for action by virtue of the govern
or's message. First in importance, of
course, is the, street railway problem,
which may be divided into several sections
for committee hearings; next comes the
state guard, the governor Recommending
compensation to the amount of So a day
to every member. The governor also
recommends an appropriation Of $50, 900
for the Pilgrim Precautionary commission,
and he asks for legislation raising the tax
limits in cities for school purposes, it
being inferred that he has in mind an in
crease in pay for school teachers.
The other subjects on which the govern.
or recommends legislation are the sugar
| shortage, compensation to the members OF
the legislature for attendance at the spe
cial session, and quarters at the state
house for the American Legion.
