The Great Invention of the Age !-steam
Supplanted Gus Triumphant!
TINHE first half of the nineteenth century VIII be
i recorded as the age of steam. 1t has passed,
and with it will pass the steam engine with the |
things that were.
The second half of the century will be known as |
commencing the agcof Gas-an agent destined not |
only to light but to KsLIGHTKN the world This |
age has now commenced and with it ID now intro
duced the Gas Engine.
Professor John T.. +. Solomon, after twenty SIX |
years Of close observation upon the experiments OF
his and Of others in attempts to make the prn-
ciple of the condemnation of carbonc acid gas avail
able n mechanic motor, has perfected the same;
and, having just received letters patent for his
"Improved Carbonic Acid Engine" now offers TO
dspose of rights for the use thereof to the United
States Government, and to individuals or to COM
panies the rights Of States. counties. or cities
The immense saving Of money and labor, and oil
human lives and suffering, secured by the use OF
this new motor, will inevitably insure Its speedy
adoption in all places where steam power Ia now
used, and in thousands of other places where the
great expense, bulk, and weight Of the steam en-
CINE has precluded its use.
This new motor may be applied to all purposes
propellng agent, from the sin gie- horse power
for the cotton gin to the two thousand horse power
for ocean steamers, with the expense lcss than that
required 10y the steam engine, OF boilers and iur-
! naces, fuel and hremen. and OF bulk and weight
| 100 tons weight sufiicing for the same power VI
