Shall We Travel 100 Miles an Hour.

There is not much probability of at
tanning regular and continuous speed
of 100 miles per hour with our pres
ent locomotives. Their fire boxes
which perform the same functions
for the machines that their stomachs
do for anilnals-are. with their pres
ent construction, necessarily con
uacted in size. The weight Of the
whole locomotive being fixed. the
dimensions of the different parts are
also limited.
1t is proverbially dangerous to
prophesy when you are not quite
sure, and if prognosucations are
based upon calculations the mendac-
ity of figures may rise up hereafter
to deprive the prophet Of all honor.
Fast running is largely a question
of steam production. Given a boiler
which will generate enough steam,
and the other problems are Of com.
paratively easy solution. The din
Guilty is 10 get the boiler sufficiently
