DMINISTRATRIX’S NOTICE.—In the '0-49-6t Finding Substitutes for Hard Coal. The New England States, which have been the principal market for an- thracite coal in recent years are grow- ing tired of the constant quibbles and threats of tie-ups between miners and operators, and are taking steps to find a substitute fuel so they will no longer be dependent on hard coal. The west and northwest did that very thing some years ago, and but comparative- ly little anthracite is now used in that region. The anthracite operators and the miners alike are apt to find them- selves with a constantly dwindling market for their product, as the con- sumers do not propose to freeze nor to be kept in constant anxiety while waiting for them to settle their dif- ferences. — Sugar or Candy. Granulated, lump, pulverized and brown sugars, though differing in tex- ture and flavor, are practically alike in composition. They contain little or nothing but sugar. A pound of candy may be considered the equivalent in fuel value of a pound of sugar. Water which has no fuel value, is used in making candy, but so, too, are choco- late and nut meats, which have higher fuel value of a pound of sugar. Water tion of sugar in thick sirups, such as honey and molasses, is about three- fourths of a pound to the pound, and in jellies, jams and rich preserves, about one-half of a pound to the pound. Nome Facing Famine. Nome, Alaska, is facing a famine as the result of being swept by fire re- cently. The flames destroyed some of the buildings made historic by the fa- mous gold rush. The estimated dam- age is $200,000. Starvation faces the people on account of one of the larg- est grocery stores going up in the flames.

Science has started the transform- ation of bleak Death Valley, the most forbidding part of all the far-flung Mojave desert. It may become a veritable Garden of Eden. Chicago capitalists have completed plans for the establishment of a mag- nificent health resort near the Stove- pipe wells, where water can be raised in abundance from a depth of less than twenty feet; California grape growers are planting hundreds of acres of vineyards; the department of agriculture has established a station for the propagation of date palms, and private ranchers are slowly but surely forcing back the domain of des- olation with the aid of irrigation. Sentineled by desolate mountains containing land lying hundreds of feet below the sea level, swepi by burning sandstorms and shimmering in the tropical heat, Death Valley has been a synonym for horror in the west since the first emigrant train dared its blistering wastes. The very names of the peaks, gorges and springs whisper of tragedy. Furnace creek, Funeral mountains, Lost hills, Hearse canyon, Disaster peak, Hell canyon—these and a dozen other fearsome titles tell of the dread of the early pioneers and prospectors. Panting wanderers, stumbling across sparkling springs, quaffed the cool waters to writhe out their lives in the throes of arsenic poisoning. Mirages—mocking illusions wrought by its sand and heat on disordered minds, ever beckoned to destruction, until even the dauntless prospectors pictured the valley as a lair of de- mons. Drifting sand dunes obliterated marked trails and buried the few springs of safe water until the most experienced desert wanderer hesitated to face its terrors. Bleaching bones long marked the toll of human lives claimed by the merciless valley and hardy Indians described its arid wastes as the “land forgot by the Great Spirit.” But with the coming of the auto- mobile all has changed. Good roads span the storied wastes. Gypsum, borax and other nonprecious minerals have vied with gold and silver to at- tract population and capital. And now the green mantle of agriculture is slowly covering the more favored positions of this erstwhile sea of des- olation. From the hidden waters of the Armargosa river, flowing for miles under ground, life giving moisture has been developed. Hundreds of wells have tapped precious water dee in the desert’s stony breast.

Funicular to San Marino That rock-citadel of the tiny repub- lic of San Marino, in Italy, which for centuries has defied assault by armies, is soon to capitulate to the funicular. The new line, which will branch off from the main railroad near Rimini, | will make the steepest part of the as- cent, it is stated, upon the longest series of railroad arches in the world —more than a mile. San Marino, which till now has been a sleepy com- munity of shepherds and truck gar- deners, is making a brave bid for the tourist trade. Enjoying as magnifi- cent a natural vista as one can see anywhere in Europe, it is preparing to assist nature with. modern hotels and sport grounds. But gambling re- mains under the ban as always. Any time in the last half-century the poor herdsmen and land tillers of San Ma- rino could have made themselves rich by granting one of the many requests of foreign companies for a gambling concession, similar to the one that relieves the citizens of Monaco of all tax burdens. But San Marino, on moral grounds, has continued to say no.

Boy Scouts Aided Sailors When the United States fleet recent- 1y anchored in Hawaiian waters a num- ber of the vessels docked at Hilo. Here the sailors had an opportunity of seeing the volcano and other inter- esting sights, An official committee was formed to take charge of the entertainment of the visitors and the information work. This latter duty was placed in the hands of the local scout council. “About 150 of our scouts turned out for this good turn,” states a report from Hilo. “Some of these boys came over 180 miles to take part in the work, and paid their own expenses for travel and food. The scouts took charge of information booths, kept flags used in street decoration, in cor- rect position, and assisted the police at the regatta and concert, during the parade, and in traffic work.” In Summer it doesn’t get dark until 8 o'clock, and you spend your evenings on the porch or out in the car. : » Just unpacked is a new importation of exqui- site Silk Lingerie—in Peach or Flesh Crepe-de- Chene, adorably fashioned.
