Similar letters ofreference indicate like-parts. I

My inventionhonsists of a gauze or perforated metal cylinder with a metal cap, a gas-generating tube protruding through the cap, and an inside cone, all attached. by ahinge to an elevated kerosene lamp-burner, together wi'tlie small tube or tubes burning the oil' direct and in connection with the gas, making a strong, steady, and inodorous flame readily consuming the smoke, dispensing with the glass cylinder, and which can be carriedin the wind=without being extinguished. l

' E represents my lamp-burner, which is elevated some distance above the screw-cap F of the lamp by the wick-tubes G- and O, and supported by the same. The "cylinder' H is of gauze or perforated metal hinged to the perforated metal chamber- I, giiiing a free circulation of air to all the parts. .K is a. metal cone with vents L L on eixch side of the gas-tube M, which-is perforated, slotted, cut intoiteeth or points, at the lower end; as is clearly showuin ,the drawing, fo'r'the purpose of smothering the wick. It is semicircular at'the top; protruding shove the solid'c ap N, andclosely'fitted to the same. '0 is an indepcndentwick-txibe burning the oil direct. The semicircular slot P is for the pnrpo se'of collecting thesurplus gas which escapes from the gas'tuhc M; hywhich arrangement the gas and smoke are thoroughly consumed. I
