moved and electric driven units of twice the capacity installed without any changes in building other" than foundation, at the same time reducing Btation expenses for labor, supplies, fuel, etc., and losses due to condensation in pipe lines, heat radiation and waste of fuel due to faulty firing, so that in frone one to two years the cost of the electric driven installation is returned in expenses saved. That this can be done is explained by the simple fact that in electric station practice- only the most ef
ficient boilers, engines and generators are used. The wastes in small steam
plants which are greater than in the large plants become such an item of cost as to more than warrant the pur
chase of power from the larger plant,
while economy, flexibility and convenience in handling electric service overcome many of the serious features
of steam generation in pumping In
creased requirements In pumping due to serious fires in the districts, or de
creases in Dressure from ' any cause
are provided for automatically. As a striking instance of the import
ance of electrically driven pump in
stallations, mention need only be made of the very complete high pressure fire service system in the business dis
trict of New York city.
There the electric supply ia Tequired
to furnish the entire demand for power and in the many trying fires on
docks and in high buildings the system always has been ready for the most severe tests and has never failed. No attention other than the one man on duty in the plant is required to take

However, they did not figure that
eternal vigilance is the price of peace
as represented by an absence of an over-supply of saloons. They thought
that the -county commissioners, having
denied the license, would abide by their
denial. But they were not "next" to the inscrutable ways of county commission
ers. They failed to have their petition in evidence to flap in the faces of the
commissioners at the last meeting of the august body. But Mr. Toth did not overlook the meeting. He was present with' his little application for a
license and it was granted.

And this accounts for the strange re

(Special to Thb Times.) East Chicago, Ind., Oct. 4. An attempt to establish a dry district In Oklahoma was turned down by the city council last night. The petitioners were not so rash as to expect anything like general pro
hibition of the sale of liquors in that
thirsty section of the city, but they did desire that three-quarters of a certain
block, bounded by Kennedy , avenue, 148th street, Melville and Chicago ave
