To Cool Passenger Cars.

Soon II will be more comfortable
to travel than to stay AT home, The
demand for Injuries on the modern
through trains has taxed the ingen.
ulty OF train builders, while the fierce
competition for passenger business
between rival roads has compelled
managers to install every accessory
10 the comfort Of the travellers as
rapidly as II Is perfected.
An engineer OF the Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern has perfected a
novel apparatus, with which the road
Is now making practical tests, It Is
intended 10 cool the air In the train
and at the same time to rid It OF dust
and other impurities. The appli-
cation Of the steam heating device
has already guaranteed cool tempera.
ture In winter.
The new cooling apparatus consists
Of a sort Of huge atomizer, so con.
structed that at stated intervals gusts
Of moist air, coming directly from a
freezing plant, will I've blown through
the cars The method Is considered
superior to the electric fan, which
merely stirs the dust laden and vitiat.
ed air.

A New Hospital for the Santa Fe at
Temple.

Work on the Santa Fe hospital
at Temple, Texas. is to begin soon. 1t
is the intention to get the new struc-
ture In shape to use just as quickly
as possible. 1t will be made of brick,
big and roomy, furnished with suffl-
Gent accommodations to take care of
all the sick employees of the railway
company, including the men working
upon the newly acquired lines, such
as the Cane Belt, the G. B. & X. G..
The old building comprising the pro-.
sent hospital will be used as a portion
of the hospital grounds and buildings,
and will continue as the hospital
proper until the new building is com.
pleted.
At a recent meeting of the directors,
or trustees, 1t was resolved to change
the rate Of assessment of members CT
the hospital association from the
present rate to go of l per cent Of
the salary Of each member. With a
minimum Of forty cents and a maxi
mum Of $1.25. The present minimum
is IS cents and maximum s1.10, but
the new schedule Is to go into effect
at once and next pay day will show
how 1t works.

cd of It. Electricity Is one of the
power agencies to be used, by means
OF a non.eXpl0sive type OF internal
combustion motor.
The internal combustion engine,
which will be used to generate the
electricity that operates the motors,
though carried along with the train
does not itself operate the drivers.
Its action Is on what Is known as
the four.stake cycle. There Is a com.
pressed air reservoir from which the
power Is obtained for starting. This
gives the piston Its first stroke,
when It takes In air at atmospheric
pressure ami temperature. The Q c
ond stroke congresses this air to a
high pressure and to a temperature
Of 1000 F.
The third stroke Is what Is known
as the working stroke. At this point
oil Is sprayed into this incandescent
air. The amount Of oil that Is sprayed
In is regulated by governors. During
the first part OF this stroke the com.
bustion of this oil Is carried on at a
constant pressure for a period which
Is regulated by the amount Of oil
sprayed In. The second part Of the
stroke Is practically an expansion
without transference of heat. The
fourth stroke exhausts the gases.
