s. A. SHELTER HOME
 GIVES AID ID MANY
Nearly 1000 Given Clothing, 27S
 Get Lodging, 260 Are Fed

Since Captain John Edeen of the Salvation Army opened his new shel- ter home at the Salvation Army hall on Arch street last winter he has &C., commodated over night 278 persons. including women.
 Of this group many have been en- abled to obtain employment. all were given breakfast, a number were pro- vided with transportation to other towns. so were fitted out with shoes. 300 garments were given to those who needed clothing, and 2so additional meals were given those who were hungry.
 Now the funds for the continuance of this work are beginning to run low. Captain Edeen has sacrificed part of his own personal salary several times although he has wife and family to support and no aid is given Salvation Army members personally by the organization headquarters. An illustration of how much depends on local support of the Army and its activities is shown in the statement by a former worker that a former lieu tenant was forced to resign her position in this city some time before the local corps came here because of the failure of the drive for $5.o0O held last winter, when there were not funds enough to procure satisfactory clothing and food for the workers. This officer, in order to get enough money to buy suitable clothing and food, left the army and procured a posjtiOn in the citv which she now holds.
 Tonight, in order to help replenish the funds to continue the shelter home and charitable work, the Army will hold a lawn party on the grounds of the Y. w. c. A. at Hungerford court. The program, as worked out by Cap tain Edeen includes list of vocal and instrumental music such as the Army has built reputation for, since the coming of Captain Edeen.
 Staff Captain M. Englestad, of Providence. R. l., will have charge of the program. The Hartford Calva- tion Army band will be present and will furnish music during the evening. A delegation of Army workers from Hartford, New Haven. Naugatuck and other nearby towns will be present and will provide vocal music The New, Britain Salvation Army string band will be out in all it's glory.
 Captain Edeen is anxious to have some local person contribute the use of a second hand Ford truck to use in gathering clothing and supplies for charitable and welfare work.

GOLF TO MUSIC.

Lake Placid, N. Y. June 25.- Rhythm enters in a large degree into successful golf playing and one may accomplish much mastery of the game through pfacticing strokes to photograph music. Everett T. Seaver. president of the California state golf association and former amateur 4E0 delegates of a Cleveland firm in convention here. He demonstrated his contention by driving imaginary golf balls from an improvised tee on a hotel rug, at the same time indicat- ing how his movements in making the stroke should correspond with the tempo of slow waltz music.

COMMUNICATED
PREMATURE FIREWORKS

Editor of The Herald:
 I should like to ask through your paper if there is any law against the premature celebration of the Fourth, and if so why is it not enforced? We are all willing to have noise on one day of the year. but when it comes to celebrating on any day and at any time, including Sunday, it gets very tiresome.
 It is said that in this country we need to have more respect for law. It is a good time to practice this with reference to celebration of the Fourth. True patriotism includes obedience to law and regard for the comfort Of others.

80 to 20 per cent of It's own weight and
make a fuel high in calorifc value.
Coarse slack coal, however, as Judged
by a representative sample from the
Pittsburgh market, will absorb oil to
only 3 to 10 per cent OF its own weight,
which would give a fuel having only
about i to - per cent increased heat
ing value. The finer the size Of the
coal, therefore, the larger is the
amount of oil which will be held. Tests
made b. the Bureau Of Mines at its
Pittsburgh experiment station indi-
cate that the mixture can be made
with either bituminous slack or anth
raciJe culm.
This method bears a relationship to
the Trent process of purifying coal
by fre grinding and amalgamation
with oil, now in operation at the Trent
Amalgam plant at Alexandria, which
has demonstrated the success Of COM
bination of oil and coal for steam
maying, gas manufacturing and other
fuel purposes. The present emergency
proposal does not contemplate the
cleaning process, but involves merely
the simple mixing by shovel or con-
crete mixer. The Trent Corporation
has volunteered to assist the Govern
ment in advising in the use or applica-
ton OF oil-coal mixtures, and to waive
during this emergency any claim OF IN
fringement of its process which may

instances of operation OF unsafe

in report sent 10 the senate yester-
day.
The report was in response TO SEN
atorial resolution, recent 'ssed.
'Of 1885 locomotives &c. III at
III different points, 2,456 were found
defective. This reveals that 80 per
cent of the locomotives inspected were
found defective and the commission
expressed the opinion that the same
ratio would apply to all the 10000 To-
comotiVes IN the country.
Carriers are not making boiler m
spection as required by law, and con
siderable unsafe equipment IS being
operated, the commission stated.
Reports from our inspectors Indi-
cate very general let-down N the
matter Of inspection by the carriers
which gives cause for concern, the

must be done in each case to deter
NINE the best method of firing.
Chain CRATES and certain other au-
tomato stokers are probably well
adapted TO handle the oil-fuel mix
ture if the bin anu feeding devices
are suitable. Oil-fuel mixtures will
not fire spontaneously, but undoubt-
edly care should be exercised to venti-
late bins where external heat may tend
10 drive off lighter gases, although the
fuel oil which is on the market has
had the lighter oils distilled from it.
Anthracite culm or dust which
sift through ordinary CRATE bars can
be used successfully when mixed with
the oil, as the oil causes it to adhere
and the oil residue col:es as soon as
heated. Oil and anthracite mixtures
are not srnohe!ess with hand firing, the
Bureau OF Mines tests indicate.
This simple mixture Of fuel oil and
coal is proposed by the Bureau Of
Mines mC~Sly as a temporary meas
While under conditions Of normal fuel
supply such a mixture probably would
not prove satisfactory unless it in
volved the cleaning feature embraced
IN the Trent process, in places where
fuel oil IS available it can be used TO
piece out poor coal supply without
the changes in equipment necessary
to convert boilers to oil burning.
