THE MARVELLOUS INVENTION ABOUT BEING conf
rLErED BY YOUNG MECHANIC OF THAT CITY.
from the Reading Eaglc.l
A young Reading mechanic who for the pre-
sent desires his name withheld for particular
reasons, has almost completed a new motor
which he says will eclipse Keely's famous
machine, and knock it higher than n kite.
The young man exhibited 10 on the counter of
Wunder's tobacco store yesterday morning
and his ready and graphic descriptions of its
working fully showed that he was a master
of the situation and that he thoroughly I'M
derstood tho workings of his patent. 1t is i'll
tended to run passenger train without an ell
CINE, using no coal, water, fire or steam. The
young man exhibited the model Of the new mo-
tor. 1t consists Of three parts. The first is
large brass cylinder. On the two sides of this
this are two more cylinders, connected with tho
largest ono, In these two small cylinders are
wheels Oh the turbine system. These wheels
are driven by the newly discovered force which
the exhibitor stated he would have to keep to
himself until he had secured patent. The
wheels are properly connected with rods, etc,
and other machinery and the valves are prop
erly fitted 80 that the motor can BIO started,
stopped, reversed or regulated as tn tho speed
required. This new motor il designed to be
placed under a passenger car, and with it, it il
claimed. a train of cars can be run from here
to San Francisco at Lightning pace, and very
little cost. The motor is to be very powerful,
the pressure to the square inch to be many thou
sand pounds. As yet the motor is not fully
completed, although the mechanic has tested it
sufficiently to know, he states, that the thing
is going to work to perfection, and that if u
tram of cars will stand it, passengers can be
tossed over the road twica as fast as the fastest
express train now travels

The mare Lulu, the winner Of the great trot-
ting race at Rochester, New York; in the best
four mile heats ever made, is owned by Mr.. JOS
Harker, Of New York, is now eleven years old,
was sired by Aesanders Norman, and her dam
WAS got by imported Houton. She made re-
cord of l6s4 in a2.2i race at Rochester, Au-
gust IL, 1874, and won heat at the Buffalo
meeting early last week in LIS. Lulu has the
easiest motion imaginable, showing 10 little ef-
fort that the spectators can scarcely imagine
that she is making unusually fast time.
In this connection it is worth while to notice
that 1t is not many years since it was consid-
cred great achievement for horse to trot
mile in two minutes and forty seconds. Now
that il considered very slow time In race. At
tho recent meeting OF the Cleveland club only
two OF the forty-four heats were slower than
2.2O, and one heat was trotted in 2lS. Since
then American Girl has trotted mile in 2. l7si,
and the other day Lulu trotted in ais. Gold.
