speed would mean the destruction Of
the engine. He admitted that the pow
er for making such speed is at hand,
whether it be electricity, steam, air and
oil combined, or compressed air and
electricity. He said, however, that the
machinery has not yet been invented
which can endure the fearful strain Of
such speed 1.-The present difficulty"
said he, lies in the fact that the steam
is applied with each revolution at alter
nate ends of the piston head. Great
power is lost in driving this steam back
and forth. Some system of gearing
must be invented that will yield speed
with fewer revolutions of the wheels,
SO as to do away with some of the wear
and tear of rapid running. Until that
is accomplished even sixty miles an
hour continuously is out of the ques-
ton"
The question of obtaining this result
of slower revolution and faster speed is
confronted by one of the main laws of
mechanics: what is gained in speed
is lost in power" and ''in slow motion is
power, in fast motion speed" Speed
has been vital factor in passenger
transportation, since the introduction
of steam as a motive power, and al
though the principle and it's application
have been wonderfully improved, we
have yet to determine the limit of de-

The compound locomotive differs
from the standard engine in common

that it takes advantage of that valua-
bic quality Of steam, its expansibil-
ity, using the steam in two or more
cylinders. The primary object in COM
pounding is economy of steam, and con-
sequent saving of water and coal. The
steam is admitted first to "high-pres-

part of the duty: it then passes into a
larger 'low-pressure cylinder" where
the remainder Of its expansive power is
given out. From this cylinder it es-
capes into the atmosphere or con-
denser at very low pressure. Great
economy is shown in heavy freight

Future fast time resolves itself to
this: An engine must be created to
hold and disburse the power which
stands begging for capture at our door;
railroads must be constructed without
grade crossing, nothing over ten feet to
the mile and no curves greater than
thirty minutes, few trains, no cause for
stops on short distances and necessary

She Was Determined to Maintain Her
Rights.
The wind blew and the rain fell
When the stout lady first became no
ticeable by reason of her manifest trials
she was only few step from the center
of the street, struggling bravely in the
direction of the nearer curb. In one
hand she held an umbrella, a box
of candy and a paper pail of oys-
tiers. With the other she clutched her
skirts. There was an expression of un-
mixed apprehension on her face
Cant l assist you, MADAME" gently
inquired the small man in a rubber
coat, who had madly rushed to the
rescue.
Nope"
A gust of wind struck the umbrella
amidships- Itcareened forcibly against
the woman's hat and the latter was
knocked forward upon her nose Sim
ultaneously the candy-box displayed a
marked disposition to slip away from
all restraint.
won't you let me hold your UNI
brella?' persisted the little man very
solicitously-
Nope"
She was almost half way to the curb
now and the oyster-pail seemed in
clined to be rebellious and follow the
example of the candy box.
But Oyou're losing your packages,
madam"
The little man made a grand attempt
to save the day and was as grandly re-
pulsed.
'You are mistaken, sir. 1 am not
losing my packages"
The wind blew and the rain fell The
stout lady tossed her head and jerked
the dislocated hat into place. With a
deft movement she deposited the candy
box EundeT her arm and the bail of the
oyster-pail between her teeth. At the
same instant she seized the purse firm
ly with her third and fourth fingers, de-
voting all the remaining faculties ex-
clusively to the umbrella

The little man bowed and murmured
helplessly.

she reached the curb and entered upon
general readjustment, that the
movement for the emancipation of
women has been in progress for several
centuries, and ! am not one, assure
you, to abrogate thus lightly the indie

much relaxed to absorb with proper
rapidity. Poisonous substances are
formed by the action of microbes upon
