Rapid Promotion of Belfast Maj

Rapid Promotion of a Belfast Man.
A short time since The journal noticed
the promotion of w. NJ Brown formerly of
Belfast as Master Mechanic of the street
railway service of Minneapolis and St. Paul,
MINI. We have just received a letter from
Mr.. Brown in which he expresses pleasure
at being still remembered by his old friends
in the east He says the cars running be-
tween Minneapolis and St. Paul are ac-
knowledged to be the finest in the United
States. They are equipped with patent gates
operated by the motormen. These gates
were gotten up by the Twin City Rapid
Transit Company, have been in operation
about year, on $50 cars, and have been
great success. Outside companies are pre-
pairing to adopt them and in a short time
they will be in use all over the country. AS
to himself Mr.. Brown says he entered the
employ of the company July 5, 1892 as ma
chinist and millwrght, and remained in that
position until Jan. /, 1894. He then con-
tracted with the company to vestioule $50
cars, and completed the contract March /,
Is 4. March 10Th he was appointed foreman
store keeper there and superintendent of re-
! pairs on buildings; March 1 1895, the paint
ing department Was turned over to him ;
June 10, 1893 he was given charge Of all
motor repairs, with the title of general fore
man, and Nov %, 1895 he received tie APP
pointnent of Master Mechanic. This places
him at the head of the mechanical depart
ment and covers everything except the
trainmen, who come under another depart
ment. This rapid advancement te,tities to
Mr.. Browns ability.
