One Locomotives Enormous Strength.
Gittle Falls Times.)


Yesterday afternoon the New York Cen
trail Company's new tandem compound
locomotive No. 1893, built recently at the
Schenectady Locomotive Works, took q
train OF los loaded cars from Dewitt to
Albany in eleven hours. The los cars
were loaded with $500 tons of freight.
This is the greatest tonnage ever moved
by a single locomotive on any railroad
in the world. Some idea of the size of
the load can be gathered when it is real
lied that. 9,00o, 900 pounds of freight were
moved. The engine was in charge OF
Philip Eberhardt of Albany. Last week
the same locomotive drew 100 cars over
the division. In the 100 cars there were
1920 tons. The hauling capacity of the
locomotive IS enormous. 1t drew fifty
loaded cars up the Schenectady hill with
out assistance, an unheard-of feat among
Central enginemen. The increased power
Of the monster is gained by the use of
steam four times that is one compound
cylinder placed ahead of the other, hence
its name tandem compound.

In serving (a) the server shall stand
behind the table, and in playing the
| first ball of every ace his bat must not
| be over the table, but behind it. (b)
The bat handle must not be higher
than the waist and the bat itself must
not be raised above a perpendicular
position.
| A fault counts an ace against the
! player who makes it.
The server in opening the game shall
stand at the right-hand side of and
serve into the opposite square or his
opponents right-hand court In serv-
ing the second ace the play shall be
from the opposite corner to the opposite
| court. and the server after calling the
totals at the conclusion of every ace
shall say, "serve right or serve left"
so as to notify the server.
Failure to serve in the proper court
shall count an ace against the server.
there being only one service for each
ace. After the service the ball may be
played on any part of the table.
Should a ball strike the top of the
net and roll into the proper court it is
called a 'let ball. and the server shall
play over again, but a repetition dur
ing the service of the same shall count
fault against the server.
If the ball. before it bounces, strikes
any object either around or over the
table. it shall count a fault against the
striker The nets or posts excepted. A
''let BALI after the service does not
count fault.
When ball is not returned over the
net or fails to bounce on the table it
counts an ace against the player.
Volleying is not allowed. a ball
played before it bounces counts an ace
against the player. acknowledging is
permissible.
The game IS scored like tennis. The
player making the first ace counts 15
Should this be the server the score is
called "15-love;" should it be the strik-
circuit it is called "love-15." The sec
ond ace counts another Is, and accord
ing to who registers the point the score
is called "15-all,'' go love-" or Glove
30.'' The player making the third ace
counts 40. and unless the score is go
all'' the player with the 40 points wins
the game should the next ace be scored
by that player.
In the event of both players scoring
three aces QO-alD the game is called a
deuce" and the first to score an ace
receives advantage" Should the same
player win the next ace the game is
won, but should the other player score
the ace making a tie at advantage,
the score reverts back to deuce and so
on until one player scores two con-
secutive aces Immediately following
the score, of deuce.
A set is won by the player, who with
a lead of two games first wins six
games. Should, however, the score of
games be 6-5 a victory cannot be Sc
cured until a lead of two games has
been obtained, such as rs or Sc.
Continuous Ping-Pong can also be
played. The service then changes at
the end of every five aces, and instead
of counting an ace as Is, it counts as
one. Should the score be tied at is
the players set five, and the one first.
winning five aces secures the game.
At 10 the game is set at three and the
player who first wins three aces obtains
the victory. Best of three games con-
stitutes a set.
