A Russian engineer, w. Olschewsky has recently invented rapid process of brick-making, which is now being worked at Coswig in Germany. The bricks are composed of mixture of slaked lime and sand, which is moulded in a press, the proportions of lime and sand varying with the kind of brick which is to be produced. The bricks are then placed in a closed chamber and exposed to the action of steam at a pressure of about 100 pounds to the square inch for twelve hours. The bricks have specific gravity of 1.Ss and a crushing strength of 220 tons to the square foot. They are also porous and absorb 13 per cent. of their volume of water on immersion. The amount of lime used in their manufacture varies from per cent. to 10 per cent. of the total.

What Does This Mean +?

A perusal of the history of rail
way transactions during the past
four years shows us this period
has been the most disastrous, from
financial standpoint, of any other
of the present decade. Under tho
circumstances it would almost
seem as though the further devel-
opment or improvement of rail
way facilities must cease. Yet,
strange to say, many notable in
stances prove that the contrary Is
true. In numerous instances,
frst-class roads, despite the
hard times and general business
depression, have made very de-
cided advances, not only in the
Improvement of the material con-
dition of the roadway itself, but
likewise, the equipment and SER
vice. And the public has been a
great gamer by the public-spirit-
edness of the roads.
One of the most notable cases
of railway development is the
Nickel Plate Road, which seems
to have forged right ahead with
its improvements and has exhibi-
ted an unrelenting determination
to give the public the best pos
sible facilities in spite of the
hard times. And how we'll this
corporation has succeeded in its
laudable efforts, the excellent con-
dition of the system bears ample
evidence. Yet the secret of this
success is obvious: the people
have responded very generously
to generous effort to give them
the worth of their money. That
is all. The peoples money has
enabled the road to better its ia
cilities in every respect; thus the
work has been of mutual and re-
ciprocal character. The liberal
patronage accorded the road has
brought handsome return TO the
people in the shape of improved
facilities for travel, yet at the
same time, at lower rates.
And now, it seems, the Nick kel
Plate Road is still engaged in
further efforts to serve the people
we'll. 1t has high-class road
way to begin with; a most excel
lent equipment to end with, and a
safe, fast and reliable service for
the delectation of it's patrons.
All in all, it offers most attract
i've menu to travellers bound east
or west in the shape of "a Peer
less Trio of Fast Express Trains. "

Merit Always Wins

The hard times of the past
three or four years have been
very destructive. to all industrial
affairs, and the railroads have had
unusual amount of difficulty in
making both ends meet. Roads
that have, during this trying
period, earned dividends while at
the same time affording high-class
transportation facilities to their
patrons, have, indeed, been fortu-
nate. And such an event speaks
we'll for the management of the
roads.
The record of the Nickel Plate
Road during the recent period of
industrial depression has indeed
been remarkable, and it speaks
most eloquently of the conserva-
tive judgment of the managers.
For this road has made great and
steady progress in the material
improvement of its roadway and
appliances, and in perfecting its
equipment. The interests of the
public have been in no wise neg
lected; in fact, the success of this
road has Injured to the benefit of
the public, as much, if not more,
than to the stockholders. The
condition of the road to-day shows
this. Great and valuable i'm
provements of permanent char
acter have been 1nade-in the
shape of strengthening the road
way, bridges and other accessories,
and procuring new and improved
safety appliances; new coaches
have been added, elegant Pullman
sleeping cars put on, new and
powerful engines have been placed
in service, and everything has
been done to raise the standard of
the road, to perfect its service, and
to give it leading place among
the best roads in the country.
The result has been obvious. The
people have observed the progress
sive spirit of this road, have given
it liberal patronage, hav en-
ioyed its excellent facilities-and
that tells the whole story of q
highly successful enterprise.
Among the noteworthy improve
ments effected by the Nickel Plate
Road is the introduction of first
class dining car service, which
has won the approval of the best
class of patrons, Then the coaches
have been illuminated by the
brilliant Pintsch gas, heated by
steam and placed in care of a col
ored porter, SO the passengers
have the best money can afford, at
the lowest rates. The through
train service of the Nickel Plate,
running in connection with the
West Shore and Fitchburg rail
roads-over hegreat Hoosas Tun-
mel Route, between New York,
Boston and Chicago, ranks with
the best in the country, and has
become deservedly popular. Ele-
giant new coaches, and palatial
Pullman buffet sleeping cars run
through without change; the ser
vice is unexcelled, the time fast
and the scenery most fascinating.
Located along the south shore
of Lake Erie are many substan-
tial and attractive summer resorts
that are yearly growing in popu,,
larity, and this class of travel
promises a continual increasing
source of revenue to the Nickel
Plate Road.
