SOLDER is OF GREAT VALUE
In Making Battery Connections Care
Should Be Taken That Metal
Doesn't Overflow.

When a wire carrying electric cur
rent Is to be attached to a terminal
or to another piece Of wire. the COM
mon practice Is to make the connec-
ton, wrap it with tire tape and call
1t job. The connection serves very
well until cOrrosion Of the parts sets
in, when resistance to passage Of
the current is set up with increasing
ly detrimental results.
AS a matter of fact all connections
of this kind should be soldered as soon
as they are made. In soldering these
parts care should be taken to keep
the solder from flowing on any part of
the wire except the terminal. as the
heat tends to make the wire brittle
and likely to break. In doing the
work hold the timed surface of the
soldering iron close to the places
where the juncture is to be made.
Hold the iron steadily in the one place,
so. that solder flows freely on the con-
nection, and. after completing the job,
test with the battery to see that the
current flows properly.

SPEED0METER FIXED
IOREGULATE ENGINE
New Device Deadens Motor When
Dialed Figure Reached.

Possibility of improvement In the
speedometer has perhaps not Inn
pressed itself upon the average driver;
but the product now being marketed
indicates that this possibility exists.
AS far as the mechanism indicating
speed. trip mileage and total mileage
is concerned, this speedometer is no
different from Its predecessors. But
1t goes far beyond that.
The dial at the bottom of the in
strument may be set for any desired
speed, and then locked or left I'M
locked. In either event, as the car
comes within two or three miles of
the indicated speed, the signal light
at the right will flash; and If the
acceleration then continues until the
car actually reaches the dialed speed,
the ignition is cut Off. If the dial
has been locked, there is no escape
from this; If 1t has been left unlocked,
the driver may meet an emergency by
a simple twist of the key, setting the
limit forward to any desired point.
Finally. the instrument may be adj
justed so that the signal light alone
works, without the ignition cut-out;
or the cut-out alone, without the light;
or both together, as described above.
Ordinarily, when the ignition cut-out
functions, the engine will go dead and
stay dead until the car speed falls be-
low the dialed figure; and at this point
the cut-out will go out Of action and
the rolling car will start the engine,
just as in braking with the engine.
II 1t is desired to prevent this, the
dial may be left unlocked. and turned
back to zero as the cut-out comes
into misunderstanding American.

DUTY OF EVERY CAR DRIVER
Keep Machine In Good Repute on
Streets and Highways, Says
Secretary Fred Galley.

Keeping the motor car in good re-
pute on the streets and highways, ac-
cording to Fred Fl. Galley, executive
secretary Of the National Motorists
association, is the duty of every own
er and the basis upon which the con-
tinued success Of the motor car as a
form of safe transportation depends.
Some motorists need to be educat-
ed to better understanding of their
responsibilities, and act upon the ad-
vice Of the more experienced" says
Mr.. Galley. "Our rules of safety reach
this class satisfactorily, but we must
treat the irresponsible motorist diff
ferently. Mere words, even the most
caustic phrases, do not reach him. A
more vigorous policy is necessary.
''It is not enough to sit by and COM
plain about the foolhardy things be-
ing done to the discredit Of drivers
who try to be decent. Take the vi
olators number and report him to the
police. Better still. jump out and pub
licly threaten to have him arrested.
He won't forget the humility of 1t In
hurry.
"No mOtorist is justified in remain
ing disinterssted in the telling Of q
story Of speeding. Let the violator
know that he is on a par with the con.
ventional lawbreaker and convince him
the stigma his act places upon motor
ing will eventually hurt his standing.
his business and his freedom in motor
ing"

CHECKING

MEN
D. c. Fuel Distributor Probes
Complaints Some Dealers
Cot Too Much Fuel.

F. r. Wadleigh, Federal Fuel
Distributor, today began an in
vestigation into reports that
anthracite coal was being un-
evenly distributed in Washington
with the result that some dealers
were getting more than their
quota.
COnfers on Reports.
"If I find that there is no equal
distribution of coal in Washington,
I will Immediately take steps to
remedy the situation" Director
Wadleigh declared.
Wadleigh made this statement
following q conference in his office
today with Engineer Commissioner
Charles Keller and Walter c. Allen.
executive secretary of the Public
Utilities Commission.
"Keller told me that some dealers
in Washington are receiving more
than their share while others are
getting below the quota allotted to
Them" Wadleigh said.
''I have addressed a letter to the
Pennsylvania Fuel Commission ask
ing for the figures on all coal ship.
ments TO Washington. / intend to
check up on these reports. 1t will
take a few days but | will know
definitely then just what dealers,
II any, are getting too much coal
and what dealers are not getting
enough. Dealers are entitled to 90
per cent Of the amount they re-
ceived last year and no more. If
one dealer gets more than so per
cent it means that another dealer
will get below so per cent"
Keeps Names Secret.
Wadleigh said he would not make
public the names Of those dealers re-
ceiving more than the allotment,
but indicated he would Immediately
take steps to reduce the shipments
to these dealers.
The Federal distributor expressed
| the opinion that the coal situation in
Washington Is getting better daily.
From September II to January IL,
he said, this city has received 1872, 1882
tons Of hard coal. He said that dur
! ing the week ending December 80,
1902 tons were received; during
week ending January s, 8,186, and
week ending January 10, 1O,72S.
1.-THE indications are, the figures
| not being complete, that there was q
considerable increase during the
| week ending January TO-" he said
He pointed out the commission
statement that only 5000 tons OF
coal were received here during the
week ending January was wrong
and that 8,186 tons came In.
