Y Wetropolis Short of Anthracite-- How to Use Bituminous Public utilities in New York have switched from the use of anthracite coal and are using substitutes, mainly soft coal or coke, according to advices from New York, and New York peo- ple, as well as the rest of the coun- try are being advised to adopt the ‘use of some other fuel. “In my opinion,” said W. 8. GGould, president of the Fuel Engineering company, of New York, “it would be a good thing if people would learn to use soft coal! and keep on using it. That would bring the anthracite min- €rs to terms.” Mr. Gould sald the use of soft coal would not require a change in grates in the ordinary furnace or stove, but that it would mean a little more ex- perimenting for the householder to learn how to use it. “Fire often, but not too heavily,” he said. “For household use soft coal is as efficient as anthracite, it burns more rapidly and is more difficult to check. Another substitute is the smaller size of anthracite, buckwheat, which {s coming into the market again."” Mr. Gould recommends un electric fan placed in the ash pit on furnaces which require more draft for anthracite substitutes. Donald Craig, assistant manager cf the Seaboard By Products Coke com- pany, the largest in New Jerse$, when asked for advice for people who can- not get hard coal, said “I'd advise them to get soft coal It is used for household purposes all over the middle west and does the work. But those who haven't used soft codl before should be warned that it is dangerous if not handled properly. You can't bank a fire with soft coal as you can with hard coal You must always have some red fire showing, so that as gas is released it is consumed. Otherwise it is going to be generated in a quantity that may esult in an explosion. But it is not hard to burn soft ccal with safety.” More Draft For Soft Coal The main difference between the burning of hard and soft coal “‘con- sists in using the proper amount of air, and bituminous coal requires a stronger chimn:y draught than an- thracite,”” accnrding to FEugene C.| Hultman, [ administrator for Mas- | sachusetts, Hard and soft coal mixed can be burned without necessity of changing grate bars or fire pots, he reported after experiment. Soft cadal, being “freer hurning,” required more attention, otherwise there was little difficulty in change of fuels. Many *urnace and heater manufacturers nad advised Mr. Hultman that their product was constructed to bugn eith- er kind of coal. All public utilities here are burning soft coal, according to officials, in the same grates long used for hard. Care- ful stoking hus reduced the necessity for breaking up the crust to a mini- mum. Edison Consolidate Gas, Inter- borough, B. R. T., Public Service cor- poration of New Jersey and similar interests are listed on the soft coal side. ASKS FARMERS TO CUT WOOD. Action on Fuel.

MRS. CARUSD GETS ' BEQUEST OF DOLLAR Park Benjamin Also Cnts OFf Four Other Children New York, Aug. 30.—The five chil- dren of the late Park Benjamin, in- cluding Mrs. Dorothy B. Caruso, wid- 'ow of Enrico Caruso, have been vir- tually cut off from their father's es- tate by the terms of his will, which was flled for probate yesterday. I'rom an estate which is said to be valued at approximately $500,000 each re- ceives $1. The children will contest the will. Miss Anna Bolchi Benjamin, who was adopted by Mr. Benjamin in De- cember, 1919, and for seven vears was a member of the household, may eventually receive all but about §32,- 500 in cash and certain real estate and oil paintings, if the will is sus- {taiged as drawn. The residuary es- ‘tat;“'hirh is believed to comprise tie bull of the property left by Mr. Ben- jamin, is left in trust for his wife, Mrs. Ida E. Benjamin of Interpines, Goshen, Y. At her death it js be- queathed with any other trusts which may have lapsed, to Miss Anna Ben- jamin “absolutely and forever.” Speaking for his brother, Romeyn, and three sisters, who are understdod to be united in opposition, Park Ben- jamin, Jr., said last night at nis home that probate of the document will he contested. He indicated that the f. nancial provisions of the will did not evoke such surprise as his father's language in explaining the virtual dis- inheritances of his children. That his father should be “so vindictive,” he said, was not expected. Assails His Children. Writing the document by his own hand, Mr Benjamin, Sr., Adismissed his children with a single beqnest “be- cause of their long continued, per- duct toward myself.” “I conceive it my right,” he wrote, “to dispose of my estate to those who have aided, comforted and assisted me rather than to those who have acted less as children than as para- sites, and who have defied me under | threats of contest to make any dispo- sition of my said estate other than to themselves.” FAILS IN “DRY” FIGHT Severin Johnson Expected Home From Sweden Soon Where He Lost in Battle Against “Wet"” Forces.

Philadelphia, Aug. 30.—Miss Mar- garet Wisler, 709 Stanbridge street, Norristown, has recovered her sight after ten days’' blindness, which ‘doc- tors had feared would'be permanent. She was stricken blind in an automo- bile accident and recovered her sight last night almost as quickly as she lost it. A week ago Saturday night Miss Wisler was riding with John Smith in the latter's automobile. He was teaching her to drive and she had the steering wheel when another ma. <hine approached headed straight for them. The frightened girl swerved the machine as quickly as she could to one side. They avoided a collision by inches. “There was a sudden flash in front of my eyes,’” said the girl, describing her experience. *“I had never been so frightened before. After the flash everything went dark for a momeft. Then the flash came again and then all was dark again. I could see nothing.” ¢ ONE-PIPE CQMETa, FURNACE * For houses whose interiors are so arranged that a full'and, free circula- tion can be had between the two stories and the various rooms on each floor the one-pipe furnace is the least expensive \and most economical form of heating apparatus made. The installation costs less than & | fully piped furnace, and very much less than that of the hot-water or steam heating plants. The simplicity of this apparatus is manifest and its operation easily un- derstood. The Comet Furnace is thoroughly { well made, and is not a cheap, slightly- built affaif made only to sell ; it is made Al to do a great amount of heating and to last as long as any other furnace undep l similar circumstances, After being treated by an oculist several days she was able to dis- tinguish light from darkness, but until last night could not see objects. ““All at once,” she said, “I could see again. I don't think I ever was so happy in my life. I never knew be- fore how good it was to be able to distinguish the familiar faces around me. I cried with joy as I had cried with terror before. I can see as well as ever.” HARD COAL CRISIS RAPIDLY NEARS END Hope for Definite Settlement of Strike Is Taking An Upward Trend Today. Washington, Aug. 30.—The anthra- cite coal strike situation took another turn toward settlement today when \leaders of both sides agreed at a conference here to present to the anthracite operators and the general scale committes of the miners' union for “final declsions” settlement pro- posals drafted by Senators Pepper and Reed of Pennsylvania. A statement issued after the con- ference was continued from last night into the eariy hours of today said several meetings of the two groups would he convened as early {as_possible. It was agreed that the terms of |the proposals should be withheld from {publication pending the meetings. ;Thpse were understood, however, to |provide for the immediate return to {work of the miners on the basis of |the wage scale and working condi- |tions in effect last April 1, with the | operators withdrawing their insistence that arbitration be adopted as a| method of fixing future wage scales. | | DAIRY TRADE Canada's Exports Have Made portant Advances This Year.
