DEHIsoN, TEX, Aug. &C. w. Clark
master mechanic Of the Missouri Pacific
railway OF this place, and Mr.. Ed Burcharo
of Palestine have invented q patent ex'
tension boiler with returDable fiues. II
Is an eighteen-inch extension and ten
inch raise. Mr. Clark had this patent put
on engine No. 3, and made trial trip 70
Greenvllle yesterday. This new patent
did all that the patentees claimed
! IL would do. During the trip the
/ fuel used was slack coal, or coal
dust, and not a spark of fire was
thrown out. The smoke has got TO pass
| through the returDable fiue before it,goes
out Of the smoke-stack, by which time
all sparks are dead. II saves about one
third fuel; makes more steam TO the
amount of fuel used than the old engines,
and will be a great saving 10 the railroad
company in the way Of fre claims. The
patcntees have given the International &
! Great Northern Railroad company the
privilege to test the patent.
