The author of the paper in the first place had many things to say in disparage ment of the Welsbach incandescent gas Durner, from his standpoint as a gas manufacturer, on the ground of its reducing the output and profit of the gas company under his charge, by af fording those who used it an increased amount of light at about half the cost of the ordinary burner. In the course of the discussion which followed the same gentleman gave some illustrations, as, for example: "We have a clubroom in our city which used 81,400 cubic feet of gas from Jan. 1 to May 1, 1894. On Jan. 1, 1895, we replaced the burner commonly used there with Wels bach burners and from that time to May 1, 1895, they used 35,400 feet a loss to us of 46,000 feet, or over 50 per cent on one customer in six months." From the point of view of this manager of a gasworks this was truly disheart ening, but how about the club in ques tion or consumers generally? To these we think the statement will convey nothing but pleasure, qualified by the consideration that it is almost "too good to be true." If any such state ment came from the Welsbach com pany or any one interested therein it would carry little weight, but coming from one who is manifestly an enemy and in deadly earnest, it is equally convincing and encouraging to the It may, how public. be Is benefit to the this ever, asked, to be secured only at the ex public and, pense, perhaps, by the ruin of the gas companies?

"Unnatural child," moaned the Some years ago a delegation went from a certain pity to Washington to work a great appropriation for the benefit of Mobile's harbor. Among the party was a genial major, who was well primed with facts. He longed, moreover to see the inside of senatorial poker. Soon occasion presented itself. The genial man dropped his evening's pile and smiled himself out. Next night he came again. Fickle fortune still frowned. Once more the genial Alabamian's pile grew small rapidly and hideously less. Finally a pat flush swept his last dollar, and he rose from the table a trifle hasty. "Don't go," cried the winning senator, chirpily; "sit in again and try it over."

Canal barges have recently been very on successfully towed by electric power Bour-gognde the summit level of the Canal This portion of the canal is miles long and three and three-quarthas been made very narrow to reduce construction expenses. There is no tow- path and hauling is effected on the sub merged chain principle. The hauling upon the chain is now done by electric power instead of by steam, as here tofore. A generating house has been fixed at each end of the section, the current being generated by water power. The dynamos at the two stamiles tions, three and three-quartare three The in series. coupled apart, mains are suspended on rubber insula tors in part from wires spanning the canal and in part from the tunnel roof of the tunnel sections of the canal. Trolley arms of the usual type are used. The motor used on the tug which hauls upon the submerged chain is of nine- e power, running at 900 revo lutions per minute. During the passage through the tunnel the current is utilized to light the boat and at night is used for this purpose during the entire run. The cost of the plant was about $27,000 and a saving of $800 a year is recorded. e. er She wept. r "Have you made up your mind to g on the stage?" he fiercely demanded. "No, father," she faltered.
