words
"The Wyckon bnation Pipe is ms sound
after sixteen years use rs ii was the day il

this pipe will not last hundred years as
we'll"
From scores of cities and towns just as
strong endorsements have been voluntarily
given. Mr.. John Brawlcy, Superinteud-

feet pressure for sixteen years, and find it
perfectly sound" From Lockport, New York !;
Augusta, Maine; Bellaine, Ohio; Saginaw,
Michigan; Ramapo, New York; Centralia,
Pennsylvania; Chicago, Illinois; Salt Lake;
the Union Pacific Railroad Company, and
twelve other principal railroad companies in
the East, the most convincing testimonials
have been received, attesting the durability,
strength and purity of this pipe, which will
be sent to any address upon application.
The right to make this pipe is enjoyed by
two companies only in the United States.
In its issue Of October oath, the San Fran
cisco Journal IF Commerce, in very lengthy
article upon the subject Of Water Pipes, has
the following: In March last an organiza.
ton styled the American Pipe Company, with
q capital Of x25O,OOO, was established in this
city for the purpose Of manufacturing this
pipe and thoroughly introducing it to the
people Of this coast and the territories. The
bee, of the firm Of II. Is. Tichcnor Il Co,
President; John T. Chalfant, formerly Of the
MendOcinO Lumber Co., Vice President;
John +. by xbee, Of the Duncan Mills Lum.
Der Co., Secretary and Treasurer; Calvert
Meade, Auditor; Col. Cook Talcott, of thirty
years experience as civil and hydraulic en-.
gineer, Chief Engineer; Z. r. Dickinson, who
has been for the last twenty years connected
with the manufacture Of this pipe, General
Manager. On the organization Of the com.
pany mill was started at Olympia, Puget
Sound, W. T., where the lumber is prepared,
IL t. tn Il
the factory of the company, on Channel street
near Fourth, where 1t Is finished ready for
use. Some fifty or sixty men are employed
ut both places. The manner of making this
pipe is peculiar. 1t is made in sections Of
eight feet long. 1t is first bored, and then
turned in lathe to uniform thickness OF
shell, removing all Of the sap, and steamed
thoroughly to avoid any possibility of check
ing, or tasting the water. One end of each
piece has q tenon of about 81 inches, and
the other is mortised to tit it closely. The
swelling of this tenOn, when driven home,
now ready for banding. This is done by
winding the iron spirally around it. of II thick
ness and at intervals required by the pres
sure to be sustained by the pipe, and then
the entire pipe and iron are thickly coated
with asphaltum, producing a condition best
calculated to resist decay in any form. The
| water pipe is coated on the outside only, rs
it is we'll known scientific fact that water,
either salt, alkal, or sulphur, does not Affect
wood, and in this city tins pipe is used ut the
Mint to carry of waste acids.
The gas pipe manufactur by this company
is made the same rs the water pipc.eXccp; that
ii is coated inside and is not bound AS heavily
with iron; and one great feature Of the gas
pipe il, that il prevents condensation.
