Governor Pattison said to DISPATCH re-
porter last evening that the brigade had
greatly improved in appearance and drill.

and forth in front of his large tent. had
been given strict orders to let no one pass,
except q commissioned officer in uniform,
or a person properly equipped with
the necessary order. The Governor himself
did not answer the requirements, and was
promptly halted at the point of the bayonet,
and was compelled to stand in the pelting
sun, within ten steps of his shady retreat,
until the guard sent for Sergeant Murphy,
of the Eighteenth, who gave the order by
which he could only pass .
To-day the Governors inspection drill
takes place. The Governor will leave camp

GETTING RID OF SMOKE.
junction Road Officials Very Well Pleased
With Their First Test.

The Junction Railroad Company has made
satisfactory test of smoke consumer
This Is the first railroad east of Chicago to
use an appliance for the modification of the
smoke nuisance. The test was made by
Superintendent Kinney, of the road, and he
expressed himself as being well pleased
with the result
The junction road has been frequently
referred to rs producer of smoke of the
densest and most Objectionable kind. Lately
it undertook to use coke for the purpose of
mitigating the nuisance, but has again re-
turned to coal, with the use of the preventer.
The appliance has been adopted on 4 30
days trial, and i'll the first test gave very
excellent results. A further test will be
made to-day, on the same road. by Superin-
, tendent of Motive Power Kalbaugh, of the
baltimore and Ohio, and superintendent
Kinney. Twenty-Five engines are employed
daily in transferring freight from the Balti-
moreand Ohio to the Pittsburg and Western
road, and this preventer will allow the use
iof coal without the accompaniment of the
islnoke. Coke, when used, can be consumed
without any appreciable smoke, but its
higher cost than coal is barrier to its gen.
eral use on railroads.
