self at Colonel Montgomery's desk and talks
through that o~flcial's telephone.
The president is very frequently in con-
versation over the long distance with New
York, Boston, Chicago and other cities.
Before the coal operators and the miners
agreed to arbitrate Mr.. Morgan on several
occasions called up the White House from
New York, whereupon conversation was
men of the day.
The social features of the White House
are greatly aided by the use of the tele-
phone. The presidents wife and daughter
are favorably committed to impromptu func-
tions, the guests at which are almost in
variably summoned by telephone.
When the president travels the telephone
at the White House is kept exceptionally
busy. From every city where the president
stops word is at once sent by telephone to
the White House, and the business of the
government is taken up and carried on
with the same ease and expedition that
would result II the president were simply
telephoning from an adjacent room instead
of from some point 1000 miles distant from
the executive Offices.
So important has 1t become that the
president should maintain constant tele-
phone communication with the government
at Washington that telephone terminals are
put up in the car in which he travels. and
wherever stops are made, even at small
stations, the wires are quickly connected
and the president enabled to talk with the
White House. generally getting connection
with the long distance line through the
local exchange.

PURE DRINK FOR IRON HORSE
New Feature in Railroad Economy is In
troduosd on Union Pacific.
HUGE PLANTS TO PURIFY THE WATER
Presence of Mineral Salts n Menace
10 Boiler FIues and steps Are
Taken to Remove
Them.

The Union Pacific is working toward an
era Of good water for its locomotive boil
ers, and to this end has installed one water
purifying plant and has five in course II
construction, and a like number contracted
for. These plants will be installed between
Council Bluffs and Cheyenne. Ultimately,
and within a few years, twenty-five more
plants will be added to the system, giving
the road a complete system OF. purifying
plants at all of the points where the water
is not satisfactory for boiler use.
There are not over thirty five water puri-
flying plants in the country and one-half If
these are not for the use of railroads.
France, Germany and England have all
taken up the work and practically all of
the water used by locomotives In these
countries is purified.
In the eastern states, where water is uni
formly purer than in the west, the hues
in a boiler have a life Of 200, 900 miles and
a like distance with q little caulking and
tightening. Compared with the hue mileage
west Of the Mississippi this is a very long
life, as the life Of iues in the west does
not average much over 10000 miles. This
difference is due solely to the difference
Of the water. The life OF the hues with
pure water is from four to ten times
greater than that Of those where the water
contains mineral salts common to well
water in the west.
Impurities in Western water.
The water used by the Union Pacific is
drawn almost entirely from wells and con-
tains a quantity OF carbonates and sui
pilates OF lime, magnesium and iron,
which all cause hard or soft scale and are
dangerous to the life OF the boiler. There
is also a large quantity OF alkali present,
but this It Is impossible to remove exeep,
by distilling, and the cost OF distillation is
too great for IL to be practicable. The
presence Of the alkali in the water does
not affect the boiler to any great extent
beyond causing 1t to foam. and with care
the water Goes not foam sufficiently to
cause any Inconvenience.
For years the presence of the deleterious
salts in the water used in the boilers has
caused the use Of tons Of boiler compounds
which were Of little real beneht. The
danger Of foaming was increased with their
use and the boilers still scaled.
Railroads everywhere have made II q
point to use citY water where Il is obtained
from streams and creeks OF from lakes. as
this is purer than well water. The Chi
eago a Alton railway. at a great expense
built a series OF reservoirs which secured
for It's motive power surface water. but this
contains a trace OF organic matter that cor
rOdes the boiler and is a continued expense
almost as great a. that Of operating puri.
flying plants.

once or on the
Road.

At the White House the telephone Is an
important and Indispensable medium for
the transaction Of an enormous volume Of
national business, writes Harold Bolce in
the American Telephone Journal. During
the Spanish war II was a vital factor in
history making. In his message to congress
in 1898 President Mckinley acknowledged
the great service of the telephone and tele-
graph system at the White House. operated
under the direction Of an ohicer Of the
signal corps.
Since President Roosevelt has been at the
head OF the nation the telephone system,
which was a special and favored feature of
Mr.. McKinley's White House arrangements,
has been greatly amplihed to meet the de-
mands OF the hour,
Sixty-hve cables radiate from the new

advertent leakage or betrayal OF cOundenee

Not a syllable Of the half-milllOn mes

How II ia Accomplished.


How IL IL Accomplished.
All of the water purifying plants in this
country depend upon the chemical princi-
pies and differ only in their manner of
operation. Carbonates OF lime, magnesium
and iron are commonly held in solution by
water. Their presence In the water causes
soft scale to form in the boilers. Slaked
lime will precipitate them as Il will also
precipitate chloride of magnesium, which
corrodes the boiler tubes. Sulphates OF
lime and magnesium are also :ound in con-
siderable quantities in well wafer and
through them a hard scale is precipitated
on the sides and tubes of the boiler. The
sulphates can be precipitated out with soda
ash.
Both soda ash and slaked lime are cheap
commodities and the, principal salts found
in well water which cause corrosion and
scaling are separated from the water by
their addition. The addition o. these
chemicals causes a precipitate and this
must be removed from the water before ii
is introduced into the boiler, so II is neces-
sary to either allow the precipitate to set
tie or to remove 1t by filtration.
The Union Pacific. in their system, will
combine the two methods Of separation.
The water is pumped to the top OF the
water tank and allowed to run over and
through a prepared solution of sIaked lime
and soda ash and is then partly altered and
drawn on from the top Of the tank after
having settled. The system is continuous
and requires from four to four and q half
hours to perform its functions. 1t requires
no more labor to run a water tank contain
ing the purifying apparatus than one not so
arranged, and the only cost sustained in
the process is that OF the chemicals and
averages from 1 10 . cents f6r 1000 gallons.
Capacity of the Plants.
The plants arranged for have capacities
ranging from 800, 900 to 500 900 gallons daily
and are large enough for from so to 100 OF
the largest OF the company's locomotives to
replenish their tanks in passing. When the
entire system is completed the company
will be able to purify about Is, 1000, 900 gal
Ions daily and will serve the company for
all time.
From time to time it will be necessary
for the company TO analyze the water, as
its chemical composition is likely to change
and care has to be taken that the chemicals
be added in their proper quantity, as too
little would not purify the water and too
great q quantity Of soda ash would increase
the alkali present and consequently in
crease the danger from foaming which is
ever present.
While the Union Pacific is the pioneer in
the matter OF water publication west OF
the Missouri. other roads are approaching
the situation and making extensive tests
and a eafeful study Of the matter, Il is
certain that within a few years the start
that the Union Pacific has made will be
followed by a majority Of the western roads
and water purifying plants will exist every
where that locomotives replenish their
tanks. as the cot Of installing the plants IL
insignificant and the cost OF puriheation
more than saves itself In the decreased
csterioration Of the hues and the saving
laade In coal consumption because Of the
lack q scale on the boiler plates and hues.
