Iinportnnt Improvements Ucing Made at the Wiltimn A. Colliery. Several important Improvements says the Plttston Gazette are in pro gress at the William A. colliery of the Connell Coal company, near Duryea. Chief among them Is the establishment of a line new auxiliary steam-producing plant of novel design. The plant is located at the rear of the old boiler house, and consists of a vertical water tube boiler known as the "Porcupine" and manufactured by the Hazleton Boiler company of New York city. The most peculiar feature of the plant .Is that tho boiler stands on end. The boiler proper Is twenty-seven feet high, but a hood and stack erected on top of the boiler tower seventy-one feet Into the air. The boiler has the appeal ance of a cylinder boiler forty one Inches in diameter standing up right, in which 918 holes are bored for the reception of four-Inch tubes which will project outward thirty-three In ches, thus giving the name "Porcupine" to the boiler. "A circular wall of fire brick will eurround the tubes and the brick will be incased in Iron. The boiler will have a capacity of 250 porse power, and the waste heat from nine cylinder boilers adjoining will be used to gener ate steam in the new boiler, though It is fitted with flte place to be used when necessary. The supply pipe will run from the top of the boiler and the boiler will be fed by a No. 11 Sellers injector and pump. There are but few boilers of this style In this section, and the one now being erected has Improve ments which are not features of the others. There Is one at Dorranceton, one at Plymouth, and several at Haz leton. William Hart, of New York, has charge of the work of erecting the plant, and we are Indebted to him for courtesies. The William A. breaker suspended work Friday for the remainder of the month. Meantime, the breaker will be fitted with Zelgler patent slate pickers which will be used to clean the stove coal. These pickers are now In opera tion. In the Connell company's Law rence breaker, and are giving excellent satisfaction. Superintendent Samuel T. Jones hones that the work on the boiler plant and in the breaker will be completed In time to resume work on July 1. The Connell company takes pride in fitting the William A. colliery, inside and outside, with the very latest improvements, and It Is one of the fin est plants in the region. WYOMING SEMINARY.
