The University of Illinois has completed
arrangements whereby it will be able to
teach mechanical engineering on much the
same methods as those of Purdue Univer-
sfty. which have made that institution IA
nous. William Renshaw, superintendent of
machinery of the Illinois Central, and Prof.
Breckenridge, of the Illinois University,
will soon begin series of tests which will
be witnessed by the students interested. j.
A. Barnard, general manager of the Peoria
d Eastern division of the Cleveland, Cinen-
natl, Chicago & St. Louis, has agreed to
furnish facilities for making road tests, and
the university in turn, will supply the in
struments for making measurements TAX
ing observations and the assistants for do
ing the work Professor Breckenridge is
now preparing plans for very complete
dynamometer car, which is to be built by
the ra1llcad for use in these tests. The in
tention is to devise self-regiStering appa-
ratus, so that adj the changes in conditions
and operation will be recorded without the
aid of observers, thus eliminating the per-
sonal equation as far as possible. 1t is ex-
pected that in this way some accurate and
valuable data in regard to train resistance
and engine performance will be obtained.
The work so far laid out to be done with
the dynamometer car on the Peoria 81 East
ern division will take from five to six years.
Tests are now in progress at the mechan-
zeal laboratory of the university to deter
mine the efficiency and conductivity of

are so low that there is but little profit to
the roads in handling it, although the rail-
ways of this country are now managed on
the most economical basis. There is no ex-
cuse for the present decentralization in rates,
and 1T seems to me that corporation
stockholders are as short-sighfed as are the
holders of railroad stocks. There is no 9TH
er line of business where the managing Off
GERS would be permitted to pursue as reck-
less course as do both passenger and
freight officials. For months the roads have
been unable to handle the business offered,
and every pound of the freight could have
been moved at good rates; still, rates have
been so manipulated that no marked benefit
has been derived in revenue from the un-
precedentedly heavy traffic. Presidents
agreements do not result in maintenance of
tariff rates, and there seems to be but one
method Of effecting a reform, and that is
for the stockholders or owners of the roads
to take hold of the matter"

Road Accident.

Last night about $50 an accident &C.
CURED to two boys who were out prac-
Using for the coming road race, and
one of the boys was pretty badly
shaken up. The HERALD reporter call
ed on G. r Outcault in regard to the
accident. Outcault said: Last night
Allan Quinn and started out fOrs q
little ride; we were going down Myrtle
street near the Catholic church at a
pretty good clip; saw q Mexican COM
wagon and told Quinn to look out, but
don't think he heard me, for he
didn't turn his wheel, but
hit the Mexican's horse right square
in the chest. I think that he must
have hit his head against the collar or
something that was hard, as he was
knocked unconscious. His wheel
wasn't hurt bit. We took him into
Mrs. Coffin's house near by and went
for q doctor.
This morning Doctor Wright, who
is attending Quinn, said: There is
nothing serious, only . good shake up
and q little knock on the head. He lie
getting along al right"
Allan Quinn is known
by nearly every one in
town; he was telegraph messenger
for . lorg time, but at presen. he is in
the employ of the Ell Paso Brick COM
pany. Quinn doesn't know at present
whether he will be able to take his
place in the coming races or not.

or walked up to q couple of men on the
street who we're discussing the subject
of where they were going to spend the
summer. One of them said that he
had concluded to take his family to
California, but on figuring out the cost
of taking them sll he found that 1t was
too expensive. The other man said,
"Well, 1 have just received q letter
from friend up at the new station of
Alamogordo on the Ell Paso Northeast
ern road, and he tells me that there is
snow on the mountains now and that
one has to wear heavy clothing all the
time except in the middle of the day.
If that is the case 1 think I'll 90 up
there for my vacation, and take the
folks along, and it will not be so ex-
peDsive. Don't know yet what day we
will 20, but as they begin their Sunday
excursions on next Sunday, the 10th,
we will try and go then" The trains
leave Ell Paso at 7:45 q. m. and return
in the evening about seven. The rate
on these excursions is 81 so and the
tickets are good only for date of sale
unless an extension is aaked for, and
then they will be extended for those
who wish to stay some time.
