very many people that the management Of the
County's affairs was prudently and ably done,
during the year closed. IN a few weeks the
financial statement will be published, and
then all may study the record From the
County Collectors report read Just prior to
the adjournment we find that the total amount
of money paid into his hauds was $40 1891. 70.
OF this amount he paid out 1892, 655 %, leay-
ing balance of 81, 1862. The following

structed to proceed to the holders Of the
county obligations, and with the balance in
hand to pay to them the amount of their
claims against the county, or exchange the
same for uote properly signed bearing5 per

Mr.. Farley moved that the compensation
of the Collector be 5000 for the coming year,
all fees received by him in excess of that
amount to DO paid into the county treasury.
This motion was carried, but as we under
stand the law, which provides that the salary
shall be fixed before the election of the Collec-
tor, Mr.. Sweazey will do as he pleases about
being governed by the Boards action. Last
year his salary, including fees, &C., was 5000.

IT "
NINETY MILES AN KOUR.
\ Locomotive that is Expected to be a
Marvel in Speed.

A Locomotive that is Expected to be a
Marvel in Speed.
\ Standing in "stall" in the round-housc
the Pennsylvania railroad, in Jersey
ty, is odd-l ooking locomotive bearing
name "Fontaine." The engine was
ructed for speed, and, although it has
ade its trial trip, it is expected that it
n N at the rate of ninety miles an hour.
III lchinery, instead of being below the
md line of the boiler, is almost entirely
abo There are three pairs of driving
whe| pit only two rest on the rails. The
third are on top of the boiler directly
in frd f the cab. These wheels are
termed main drivers" and the power
is comb gated to them from the cylin-
ders. II eam chests and cylinders are
set at al \gle of about forty-five de-
grees, on sides of the boiler, and the
crank rods Van up to the driver The
lower drivihg-wheels are different-sized and
are not connected The rear Wheels which
are only fouNandS half feet in diameter in
the nomenclature of railroad men are the
'ponies." The forward pair are called the
'.Iower-drivers, and are double. The main
part Of each wheel is six feet in diameter,
The other part, which is separate wheel,
i'll as much as it does not come in contact
with the rail, although the solid casting, is
known as the friction wheel" 1t is four
and one-half feet in diameter, and is sup
piled with steel tire theSame as the other.
The "main drivers stanN upon the "fric-
ton wheels and transmit the motive
power to them. The large. wheels rolling
upon the smaller ones give the speed. There
is no gearing whatever. The "Imain drivers"
turn in one direction and turn the Eric
ton wheels" and flower drivers lin another
In order to prevent the Wheels from Slip
ping and thus losing motion, Steam press
ure is applied to the main drivers to hold
the m down--upon the wheels beneath. The
force can be increased fronAthe simple
weight of the wheels to sixteen tons at the
will of the engineer, who is g9*ened by the,
length of the train the locolhotiye way be
drawing. The diameter of the truck-wheels
under the front end OF the engine is forty
inches. The usual size is thirty-three
inches. Otherwise the "Fontaine" doesnot
differ materially from the ordinary locomo-
tons. Some engines weigh fifty tons. I've
cylinders are seventeen by twenty-for
inches in dimensions. The amount Of steam
carried when running is 100 pounds. ThV
passenger engines on most railroads carry'
i40 pounds. The only striking feature Of
the "Fontaine' to the eye is the general ap.
pearance. The presence Of the extra pair of
wheels on top Of the boiler has won for il
the names 'camel'' and "grasshopper.
While the engine looks strange in compar-
ison with others, it does not appear ill-lTo
portioned. il is gay in paint and embel-
lishments, and The smooth brass and iron
parts are brightly polished. The engine
was invented by Eugene Fontaine, a
Frenchman, formerly locomotive engin-
Ger, whose home is in Detroit, Michigan.-
