70 be no reasonable objection to 1t.
The company agrees to complete It's
work in six months or forfeit its privi-

The line will make additional connec-

aud several miles out the Ohio pike. 1t
is very broadly limited, also, that the
line on this side will be extended as far
as Pleasant Valley. This, in addition
to the present electric railway, will
give Wheeling and surrounding towns

and excellent electric railway systems
in the country.
Council should speed the new COM

Nut-Tapping Machine.

A nut-tapping machine has been
contrived by a Rhode Island inventor
which automatically presents in sue
cession a number OF nuts to the tap,
releases them from the holding jaws
after tapping and pushes them on to
the shank of the tap and, when the
desired number of nuts has been
tapped, the machine is automatically
stopped. The apparatus is described
as having a longitudinally rotatable
tap and means for driving the same,
the combination with the table, NOV
ably supported by frame in front of
the tap, and having an arm, a spring
secured to the arm and a stud on the
forward end of the frame. There is a
feed box secured to the central for
ward portion of the table and a
jaw block is secured in the slot
in the table below the box, the spring
operated tar carrying fingers sup
ported in slide on the lower surface
OF the table; this is operated against
the spring pressure by rod plvoted to
the bar and to depending arm on the
table, being adapted to be engaged by
a stop and rack secured to the under
side of the table. A lever is pivoted
b tween studs below the table and
having semicircular pinion engaging
with the rack and q rod connects the
lower end of the lever with that of the
pivoted lever.

Steam Engineering.

According to writer in Power, en-
gineers should apply the steam engine
indicator at least once a week, and
some rig for reducing the motion OF
the piston should be availab BILE which
will admit ct easy attachment with
out stopping the engine. A unique
arrangement of this kind has been in
troduced, which consists of a light
brass wheel which has two diameters,
the larger diameter being of such di.
mansions that the circumference will
be one-half the stroke of the engine,
and the smaller having circumfer-
ence one-half the length of the dia-
gram. A cord wound two or three
times around the large wheel is at.
tacned to the cross-head, AMI cord
from the wheel of smaller diameter
leads TO the barrel of the Indicator
when in operation, or is hooked to an
idler cord which passes over leading
pulley to weight, while the indica.
tor is at rest. A clock spring attached
to the side of the wheel causes the re.
turn motion after the cord has been
drawn out by the moving cross-head.
This rig, as permanent attachment
to the front head of an engine, ha.
proved satisfactory.

Novel Counting Attachment.


This improved counter, which is

operating only when the press is

The improvement has been patented.
The counter is of the usual kind. with
registering wheels and knobs for set
ting them, and it is operated by a
lever which hangs down at a slight in.
clination 10 the bottom of the case, the
feVer being bent upward and laterally
at one end, and finally entering a slot

near the pith of the platen, so that
when the Gaze is swung into position
for registering, its lever, A, will ex,
tend into the path of a finger or pin
on the platen, b, of the press. If the
counter is not to be used. it may be

the standard, out of the path of the
