On October the Hnnterdon Elec.

On October the Hunterdon Elec-
trio Co., passed into history aud a
new company with new methods and
new machinery takes its place.
Electrical illumination has long
since passed the stage where it was
regarded AS a luxury or IA fad and
with its increased use has come i'm
proved methods of productions and
consequent wider field of usefulness
with corresponding reduction in the
cost to users, so that now it stands in
field of it, with no real competitor,
for the various purposes to which cur
ent is applicable. Our new machi-
merry is fast being installed in the
power house and on the lines, when
completed we shall furnish contlnu-
GUS service so that closets, cellars and
other out of the way places will be
able to run motors of any size.
We hope to merit the continuation
of the customers of the old company
and solicit new business with the
assurance that the best of service Mt
the cheapest rate is our motto.
Respectfully,
Lamhertville Heat, Light \ Power Co.

A DREAMLAND DETECTIVE.
Singular Way In which an English
Murderer Was Discovered.

murderer Was discovered.
In the London Mirror Of Literature
for June, 1874, there is an account Of
a dream that was remarkable In many
respects. 1t is given upon the author
ity Of a clergyman Of the Church Of
England, the Rev. Mr.. Alexander, who
speaks from personal knowledge Of
some Of the facts. 1t appears that a
young man of good reputation, named
Horrocks, was found robbed and MUIR
dered. His head had been beaten in
apparently with bludgeons. A vigilant
search was made for the assassin and
after several months abandoned. no
elew to the crime having been discov-
cred. One night gentleman who had
been well acquainted with Horrocks
awoke and told his wife that he had
had dream in which he had been as
sured that one Samuel Longsmith Of
Bolton was the murderer.
Longsmith lived some twenty miles
away and was n person whom the
dreamer had met but once or twice
His wife told him to think no more
about 1t, but to go to sleep. A second
time he awoke from the effects of the
same dream and announced his reso-
luton to take steps the following morn
ing to see what could come Of 1t. Ac-
cordingly he went to Bolton the next
day and sought n warrant for the mr.
rest of Longsmith. The magistrate,
however, refused to grant it upon such
evidence. Passing through the market
place, he met Longsmith and invited
him to go to public house to hear
something he had to communicate to
him. There. locking the door, he
charged him with the crime. Long
smith was staggered and family de-
MED the accusation. In his confusion
he said he was innocent. for he did
not strike the blow.
"Then you know the man who did,"
replied the accuser, and Longsmith
was arrested and examined. He pre-
varicated Mt the examination and was
remanded for three days. At the end
Of that time and after many hours
prayer he confessed that he had been
induced to join three men in a robbing
expedition, when, meeting Horrocks,
who made some resistance. his three
companions murdered him. This con
fession came out before the grand jury
and Longsmith was brought to trial
The fact Of the dream was not offered
In evidence. but other testimony suf-
fcient to convict him was produced
A few days before the execution he
made q full acknowledgment Of his
guilt.

AIR BRAKES.
How They Are Made and How TheS
Are Applied on Trains.

How They Are Made md How TheS
Are Applied on Trains.
Every one has heard Of the air brake,
dnd references to it are sure to be
made when the subject of protection
against railroad accidents is under dis
cussion, but like many inventions In
common use it Is more or less Of
mystery, for which an explanation is
demanded from time to time.
The modern air brake consists of
twelve parts, among which are the air
pump, which congresses the air;
main reservoir, in which the afr is
stored; the engineers brake valve, reg
ulating the flow of air; the train pipe.
which connects the brake valve with
the triple valves under each car; the
quick action triple valve, controlling
the flow of air to and from the auNil-
iary reservoir. which Is supplied from
the main reservoir. and the brake cyl
inder piston rod. which is forced out
ward, thereby applying the brakes.
The theory of the air brake Is the
equalization of pressures. When the
brakes are not in action the pressure
on the train pipe is made such as to
iliary reservoir. When the engineer
desires to make an application Of
brakes he turns his brake valve so that
there Is moderate reduction Of the
pressure in the train pipe. This causes
the greater pressure in the auxiliary
reservoir to force air into the brake
cylinder, forcing the piston out and
applying the brakes.
When it is desired to release the
brakes the engineer turns his valve in
the opposite direction, permitting the
air to flow from the main reservoir,
located on the engine, into the train
pipe. When the pressure thus restored
In the train pipe is increased above the
pressure in the auxiliary reservoir GER
tain valves are moved, communication
is thereby restored between train pipe
and auxiliary reservoir, the piston is
forced to its normal position, the air
escapes from the brake cylinder, and
the auxiliary reservoir is recharged
through the train pipe.
When the train brooks in two or n
hose pipe connection is broken it has
the effect Of a sudden and material re.
duction of the pressure in the train
pipe, the same as though the engineer
had made an emergency application.
The sudden reduction of pressure also
opens supplementary valves, which In.
crease the pressure upon the brake
cylinder about 20 per cent. The brake
shoes are attached to rods, which are
In turn attached to the piston in such
manner that when the air from the
auxiliary reservoir forces the latter ou,
pulling force Is exerted upon the
brakes.-Chicago Record Herald.
