PAPER CAR WHEELS.
How They Are Made and Their Advsn-
tage on Passenger Coaches

On all the first-class passenger cars
paper wheels are used. The paper
wheel consists of paper core. or cen
ter, between two steel plates one
fourth inch thick, bolted together
through one fiange on the iron hub
and another on the steel tire, the
fianges being on opposite sides of the
wheel, so that the core can not get out
of place.
The paper used consists of good
strawboard. The sheets of millboard
are laid on table in piles and have
their upper surfaces pasted by boys
with ordinary flour paste. They are
piled in lots of thirteen, and an I'M
pasted sheet is put between the lots. so
that the mass of paper readily falls
apart into slabs quarter of an inch
thick in the drying-room after coming
from the hydraulic press.
Several of these slabs are then pasted
together, put under hydraulic pressure
IF two thousand pounds to the square
neh and dried for week or so at a
temperature of about one hundred and
twenty degrees Fahrenheit. This is
repeated until the resulting blocks con-
sain two hundred sheets of paper, the
original ten inches in thickness of the
paper as it came from the mill being
pressed into thickness of four inches,
making it as hard as oak.
After the blocks are thoroughly sea-
soned they are faced and turned in
mes and forced by about one hun
ed and twenty tons pressure into the
Jeel tires. which are two inches thick
and bored tapering one and one-half
degrees. The hub is forced with a
pressure of about thirty tons; it is
turned straight and three-sixteenths
inches larger than the hole in the paper.
The bolt holes are drilled and the bolts
forced in by steam hammers. The life
Of one of those wheels is from five hum
3red thousand to eighv hundred thou
sand miles They are said to intercept
vibration and SO prevent granulation
of the aXles, etc.-Philadelphia Item
