An OLD TINE LocoMoTIvE.-One of the
earliest efforts in the way of steam loco
motion was the engine Of Cugnot, Of
France, designed to run on common roads.
His first carriage was constructed in 1889;
it ran on three wheels, and was put in mo-
ton by the impulsion of two single-acting
cylinders, the p;stons of which acted
alternately on the single front wheel. 1t
travelled about two or three miles an hour,
and would carry four persons: but, from
the smalness of the boiler, it would not
continue to work more than twelve or fif-
teen minutes without stopping to get up
steam. Cugnots locomotive presented a
simple and ingenious form of high press
sure engine, and, though of rude construc-
ton, was creditable piece of work, con-
sideripg the time. He made second en-
CINE, with which several successful trials
were made in the streets of Paris, which
excited much interest. An accident, how
evsr, put an end to his experiments. Turn-
ing the corner of the street, near Made
leine, one day when the machine was
running at rate of about three miles an
hour, it upset with crash, and, being
considered dangerous, was locked up in
the arsenal. Cugnot's locomotive is still
to be seen in the museum of the Conser-
vatore des Arts ct Meters, at Paris, and
is a most interesting relic of early loco
motion. CGgnot was born in l779, and
died in 1904.
