The prince, says tho New York Sun, has Wen prayed for by tho religious and blushed for, by the respectable.

The ordinary service which the pigeon unconsciously performs by carrying letters, orders, reports nnd simi,(V--$ lar dispatches is bused on the natural , instinct of the pigeon to return to its own home, to which its nest, mate nnd food attract it. In a there and back flight, however, the bisk Is to Induce the same pigeon w hlch, unless carried away, as a rule, never forsakes its own loft to fly to another loft with which It has been previously made acquainted in order to provide itself there with its Police Sergeant Well, what has this accustomed food and water and then man been doing? to return to its pi oper home. , , Olllcor OiJrog lmpere matin an In this manner a pigeon carries a dis-, ior.

The Bland Passenger (more affably than ever) Oh, never mind Im in no "X, No change is made in this com- partment except that the tips on the nozzle of the exhaust pipe are taken out. Tho exhaust opening is left full open to the area of opening in the saddle casting, the stack and saddle are taken off, and the stack opening increased to twenty inches in diameter. There is placed over the exhaust and lifting pipe, twelve inches at the bottom and end, tapering to fifteen at the top and forty inches long, a sheet-iropipe. This pipe, twenty Inched ill diameter, sets over that resting on top of the extension front. Over this sets the Ordinary dome casting. This casting is perforated with 2,000 inch hojes extending half around the front side of tho casing. On the Inside pf the twenty-incpipe there Is coiled brass pipe. feet of The pump or injector forces the water through tho coil of pipe, from the top down through the center and out at the side of the exterior front through the check into the boiler. This water passing from the iniector'to the through brass pipes surrounded with the exhaust steam and hot gases, takes up the units of heat that would be otherwise wasted and the water goes into the boiler above boiling point, or about 320 degrees of heat. The I orward compartment of tho ex tensbr front is used as a receptacle for the mechanism by which the draught is secured and power furnUhml to run the dynamo. In this compurtm nt is located a pressure blower in such position as to admit of free access to tho flue sheet. Tho pressure blower is connected by direct friction to a small sixteen-hand power rotary engine, arid is also connected direct by an air pipe extending from the front end of the locomotive to tho ash pan. The ash pan and dumpers having asbestos joints and shutting firmly make the ash pan air tjght. Tho air from the fun, drawn down .through the perforations, is heated to a high temperature by exhaust steam and heated gases. The result Is by this method a fire is fanned by a constant blast of pure heat oxygen of pressure nnd this air is made hot by the heat that would be otherwise wasted. A portioned this hot air is conducted in pipes from the main air pipe through the ash pan, up through tho fuel and is farced into the flame toward from the back of tho fifty-tw- o . ilfZ .vvn V J THEPRINCESS ttle pro, 'lit it letter Tholr Practical Valuo '- iiult Atteinvd.
