AN AERIAL RAILWAY

Which Runs From Village to a
Mountain Top in the Isle of Man.
From Cassel's Magazine.
Even into the Isle of Man, known to
many by little more than Hall Gaines pa
thetic stories, has electric railway con-
struction penetrated, and a road now runs
from the village Laxey almost to the sum-
nit Of Snaefell, the highest mountain in
the island. The actual height assembled is
1870 feet in total length Of about four
and three quarter miles, making an aver
age grade of about one in twelve. The line
which. by the way, is intended solely for
the convenience of tourists wishing to enjoy
the natural beauties of the district, is laid
out on what is known as the Fell system,
with a central rail gripped by horizontal
wheels in addition to the ordinary rails and
wheels.
The electric current is carried by an over
head wire and is taken off to the cars, not
by the conventional trolley device, but by a
frame work arrangement of the kind used
on some of the German electric roads On
the sleeper parts of the line the central
rail Is utilized for tractive purposes, as we'll
serving for the safety brakes through
the whole length. The horizontal wheels
on each car are worked by Separate motors.
The power station is located about two and
three-quarter miles from Laxey. and at
LaXey itself there is, besides, q large ac-
cImulator station for absorbing the spare
current generated by the dynauos and for
distributing 1t to the line as the load may
require.
The cars are thrty-five feet long. with
seating capacity for about forty-eight pas
sengers, and each car is carried on two
four-wheeled bogies. Each axle is driven
by motor The main power station con-
tains four Lancashire boilers, twenty-six
feet long and seventy-eight inches in
diameter, working at 10 pounds pressure
with a capacity of 700 horse power. and
five compound horizontal engines, each in
dependently driving dynamo.

THE LITTLE TINTOMETER.
1t Identifies Colcrs and IL n Very USE
full Instrument.

1t Identifies ColGrs and IL n Very Use
full Instrument.
From the New York World
A unique and remarkably useful little
instrument has been devised in England.
1t is known as the tintometer, or color
me asurer' Though it seems only scien-
t;fic toy, it is nevertheless an instrument of
immense practical use.
1t is not generally known that the quality
Of nearly every substance, natural or manu-
featured, can be determined by it's color If
orly it's color be ascertained precisely and
unerringly. This is exactly what the tint
ometer accomplishes. Some scientist mas
calculated that there are, approximately,
sixty million shades and tints of color. I'm
der ordinary circumstances it is impossible
to distinguish even roughly, shade from
shade by the naked eye, or even by the use
of the most powerful microscope. By the
tintometer, though, exact distinction of tints
becomes possible.
This curious little instrument consists
of a carefully graded series of colored
glasses that are about the shape and size
of small microscope Slides These slips of
glass are placed on slide at the end of
double paraiel-sided wooden tube, which
has two eyepieces at the upper end. All that
is necessary is to exactly match in tint the
substance whose quality is in question. This
is done by putting a substance under one of
the apcrtures of the double wooden tube
and working the slips of glass at the end
of the other either singly or superimposing
one upon the other until the tint of the
glass is the same as that Of the article to
be gagged.
The tintcmeter Is thus able to match prac-
tically every shade of color to be found in
nythng, and then the quality is quite easy
to ascertain by means of records. 1t is quite
possible we'll to detect any adultera ton
in any substance by the use of this instru-
ment. In the case of flour the tntometer
has been especially valuable, and it has
been used with great effect also in a variety
of other trades.

large business the manager may clear up

PETALUMA'S NEW ROAD.

Is Now Assured.

A Line to Connect 1t With Santa Rosa
Is Now Assured.
The construction of a new railroad to
connect Santa Rosa and Petaluma is now
looked upon as assured. Right of way has
been secured for the entire distance, and
all that remains is to obtain terminal
facilities. This is regarded as a mere
matter of form, at least in Petaluma, where
the people are especially anxious that the
line shall reach them at the earliest pos
sible moment A committee has been ap-
pointed from both towns to consider the
terminal question, and will hold Joint
meeting this week.
J. W. Keys, the attorney who represents
the company organized for the purpose of
building this line, yesterday received the
following letter relating to the project from
b. M. Spencer, the commission merchant
of Santa Rosa:
J. ". Keys, Esq.-DEAR SIR: Your letter of
May 10 is at hand and contents noted. I find
great deal of enthusiasm in the matter and
there will be more when your people announce
themselves, SO as to inspire confidence in the
enterprise. There is a committee already ap-
pointed from this place and like one from
Petaluma. Our committee is composed of w
ID. Reynolds, Thomas Keegan and f. A. Brust-
all good men. We are anxious to know what
your next move will be. Very truly yours,
B. NJ. SPENCER
