MAKING eRlcKs WITH OIL.
Found 20 BE Cheaper and Better Tnnr
ANY CIher INIel.

Found 20 BE Cheaper and Better THAN
Amy ether Fuel.
| An experiment of considerable in
terest to brick manufacturers and deal
ers has been tried in a brickyaryl in New
York state, fuel oil being used instead
of wood or coal oil to burn kiln of
bricks. Fuel oil is the product left after
crude petroleum has been refined. 1t
has been used for some time as fuel for
engines and furnaces, but it's adnpta-
bility for the more delicate operation
Of burning pottery or bricks is n recent
discovery. The success of the experi
ment, says the Pittsburgh Dispatch, is
likely to reduce the cost of brick maxi
ing in a considerable degree. Forced
draught is an important factor in the
system, and by it the heat from the
burner can be directed at a uniform
temperature toward any part of the
arch of the kiln. The oil runs in pipes
around the base of the kiln and feeds
directly from the burner in the arch in
the interior. The forced lraught "feeds
in with the oil, and by the turning of
a valve the heat can be regulated at any
point within the arch.
1t is claimed that the use of oil is
much cheaper than that Of either coal
or wood for brick burning. The cost of
burning 1000 bricks with wood at five
dollars cord is so cents; the cost where
coal is used is so cents; with oil the cost
is SO cents. In burning bricks with wood
~ men are required every "a hours; if
oil is used two men can do the work.
The new method is quicker, completing
the burning of the kiln in six days, in
stead Of seven or eight, as formerly, and
the bricks are better, because with the
forced air draught the temperature of
the kiln is entirely under control.

AMERICAS MODEL RAILROAD.

Brodstreets considers the Pennsylvania
Railroad system Americas finest
standard and model for the world, the
highest development of railroading in the
United States.
Ii is certain that no railroad in the
world can show roadbed and perma
nent way which comes so nearly TO perfcc-
tion as the great pcnnsylvania's, nor
with IL AS an cxcmplar need American
railroad managers admit OF any infer
iority to,the lines Of Great Britain, whore

maintenance Of high speed by trains ne
cessitatcs the closest attention 90 the road
bed This is the tribute of expert author
ity ana probably none Of the other roads
will contest the judgment. Especial Mt
sention is called to il at this time because
the annual report demonstrates that on
the Pennsylvania system the past thrce
years of hard times and reduced reccirts
have not operated, ms in SO many in
stances, TO allow tho property TO detc
riorate. Such n road, 50 wonderfully well
maintained can put be matter of pride

EVEN IN JERSEY,

A paragraph that has gone the rounds
of the press tells of the decision OF a
Hackonsack, New Jersey. justice of the
peace, who threw the suit OF a whcelman
for damages out of court on the ground
that bicycling on sunday was illgal.
The decision was said To have been
based on an obsolete blue law of New
Jersey, passed long before the bicycle was
ever dreamsd of, and applying to car
riage riding~~in common with sundry
other diversions. But it appears that this
law called mp from the past was not only
dead by default but actually dead. for
in 1893, as Is now discovered To the dis
comfture OF the over conscientious and
too ignorant Hackersack Justice n
statute was passed by the New Jersey
Legislature declaring that vehicle riding
and driving, either for certain specified
business, as the delivery of milk, or for
recreation, "shall not be unlawful"-a
law passed with evident reference TO the
dead law on the statute book.
Accordingly tho wheclman who suffers
damage on the first day of the week while
abroad in Jersey has the Same good cause
in court as no would have in his own
country.
