An Ancient Locomotive.

from the Sclentlnc AHericdu
An interesting railroad relic, reminiscent
of the first days of the steam locomotive,
has been discovered in the north of Eng
land. The Liverpool and Manchester Rail-
road Company, the first public road con-
structed, 1t will be remembered, inaugural
ed competition in the latter part Of the
20's Of the past century for locomotive,
in which Stephenson and other inventors
participated. Three engines-the Rocket"
by Stephenson: the "Sans Parefl," by Hack
worth. and the Novelty" by Braithwaite
and Ericsson, neutrality-suspicious. in
the trials that were carried out In 1880. AS
is well known, Stephenson's Rocket Sc
cured the award Of $500, which was Of
fered, az being the most suitable engine at
tanning a speed of twenty-nine miles per
hour. The Sans Pareil' was second with
a speed Of twenty-three miles per hour,
trials owing to the joints of the boiler CIV
ing way when the locomotive had travelled
only three miles. Both the Rocket" and
the Sans Pareil' are now preserved in the
South Kensington Mureum, but the Nov
city, mysteriOusly disappeared and was
never found again until quite recently. 1t
appears that Ericsson was SO mortified by
the failure of his conception that he left
1t with his friend Mr.. Melllng who pos
sessed engineering works located upon a
space adjoining the Rainhill station. These
works were subsequently dismantled and
the premises were occupied by the Rainhill
Gas and Water Company. The Novelty
was thus lost sight of, but 1t has now been
recognized working a stationary engine,
the wheels having been removed for this
purpose and its identity thus somewhat dis
guised. Attempts are to be made to secure
this third premier locomotive and to place
1t alongside of its two contemporaries in
the South Kensington Museum.

necessary to make provision for the accom-
mediation of one flag officer, one command
ing officer, one chef of staff, nineteen ward
room officers, ten junior officers. eight war

officers and crew will have wash rooms,
bath rooms and other similar conveniences,
such as will place the comfort and health
fulness of these vessels very high in the
scale.
Use of Electricity.
The applications of electricity on board
are very much wider than in the case of
any other battle ships in existence, with
the possible exception of the Kearsarge
and Kentucky. All of the turrets have
electrical turning gear and the ammuni-
ton HOSTS, blowers to the turrets and gen.
eral ventilation, the general workshop, and
practically all of the auxiliaries, outside
of the engineers department and excepting
capstan and steering gear are to be cleo
trIcally driven. To provide for the power
required for these purposes thee will be
installed eight engines and dynamos,
mounted on combination bed-plateS, two
having a rated output of 1,250 amperes at
123 volts, and six with 62o ampereS at 10
volts.
In this class of vessels all of the latest
approved equipment will be provided for
accommodation Of the officers and crew,
the ventilation and drainage being of a
high standard; the hospital quarters airy
and corlmodious; the bakery and galleys,
with their issuing rooms and refrigeratnS
plant, having been worked out with view
to thorough efficiency; laundry and drying
rooms are fitted with the latest machinery,
electrically driven; and the living quarters
are carefully protected by insulation from
cold in winter and excessive heat in sum-
ill In 1nciC nf a

ments in naval architecture, and these yes

The Virginia will be launched at the ship
ward of the Newport News Shipbuilding
Company next Tuesday.
