p m, when conductors and brakemen
will be addressed. The examina ton
will not be held until fall, In order to

the fact that the men who have taken
advantage of the instruction given, and
who will pass the examination success
fully, will be men to receive promotion
from the companies by whom they are
employed. The air brakes are now be-
ing adopted so rapidly throughout the
country that a practical acquaintance
with the working of the mechanism will
be an essential qualification OF the en-
glneer. fireman, conductor and brake
man of the future, and those who do
not hold certificate Of competency will
