For use upon a winter's day
I take my place and guard them all
For I am Kiiu, the camphor ball."

—Pittsburg is excited over a smoke '
consuming apparatus ''About four
.ninths ago ;i plant was installed capa
ble of generating '!.000 horse power,
which seems to have s lived the prob
lem. It is the n.v o!' the t'uhall boilers
with a chain grate stoker. The theory
is simple, and observation of the smoke
stacks show that the practical results
are in accord with the theory. The
chain grate stoker is a gradual feed
appliance, delivering coal steadily and
regularly to the fire. Fresh coal is fed
into the furnace beneath the boiler,
but the furnrce is made of brick and
closed up in such a manner that the
walls are able to carry intense heat,
and the furnace becomes a reserve of
heat capable of immediately igniting
the gases liberated by the fresh coal as
it is put on the fire. No «asis permitted
to pass l>eyoiid the bed of red coals, so
no smoke is thrown out of the chimneys
into the air.

ion of natural gas at supper time Satur
day evening and he and his wife l«»th
severely hnrt. Mrs. Shakeley had
swelled gas during the afternoon, when
she attempted to light it in the stove to
prepare supper a slight explosion occur
red ami the gas did not burn. She tried
to tind the leak but could not. When
Mr. Shakeley came home, he went
down into the cellar to investigate and
his wife stood at the head of the stairs
watching him. He lighted a match and
an explosion followed that was heard by
some in all parts of town. Both man
and wife were badly bruised and burned
about the face and hands, but Mr.
Shakeley was able to get up the stairs
and extinguish the flnmes on his wife's
clothing which had taken fire. The
walls of the house, a frame, were bulged
apart, the force of the explosion escap
ing through the vents made at the cor
ners and through the doors and windows
which were blown out. The chimney
came down with a crash, bricks being
scattered in the neighboring yard. Mr.
Shakeley's daughter a young lady, was
hurled from the front door step, where
she was sitting, against a picket fence
in front of the house with such force as
to knock the pailings off. Aside from
slight bruises she was unhurt. Other
children in the house were nuinjured.
Nearly all the furniture was wrecked.
Had the house been of brick it would
have been razed to the ground.
After the explosion a neighbor ran in
to the cellar and turned off the gas.
The building took fire and the Spring
dale l>ells were rung but the fire was
put out with but small trouble.
Drs. May Shryock and J. W. Gross
man were called and attended the in
jured couple. Mrs. Shakeley is a
daughter of David Lyon Mr. Shakeley
drives the delivery wagon of the Hein
zer grocery. The loss •of their home,
the result of years of labor aud-sacri
fice. is a severe blow to them. .After
the catastrophe Shakeley expressed
himself as thankful it occurred before
more gas has accumulated and before
thev had retired to bed.
Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Shakeley were
removed to the residence of Mr. Lyon
nearby. Mrs. Shakeley is very serious
ly hurt

Daubenspecic carried around subscrip

The terrible accident in a railroad

proves the folly of entrusting an im

tion. killing the engineer and fireman.
Then 4<MM) gallons of oil took fire and
that tunnel was turned into a great
furnace. The bodies of the engineer,
fireman, and five tramps were cremated.
