chest valve, and the manner in which it
operates. The results obtained by ex-
pertinent and by actual use are facts.
This being the case any person can cas-
lily See the value Of our invention. The
fact chat 1T is necessary to use less coal
will aprea! to everybody. 1t will APP
peal especially to railroads.
Uses Little Water.
Fewer coal stops need be made, or if
1t is necessary to stop for some other
reason, smaller and consequently
lighter supply will be sufficient. The
saving in water is of special advantage
to railway locomotives. On fast thru
trains much better time can be made,
for it will not be necessary to stop SO
often for water, Then again there are
many places, all over the country,
where the water is bad, and not fit to be
Of this sort, the value of the device is
obvious. Many roads build tanks and
ship in water for their locomotives at
great expense With our attachment,
fewer of these stations will be neces-
sary, or it may be possible with a spe-
clally large tender tank to make the
trip thru such sections without being
obliged to take any water on the way.
The purely technical advantages
claimed are these:
The exhaust does not commence until
the piston head makes the full stroke;
that is to say. arrives at the end of
the cylinder: The exhaust, when it
commences, is more perfect and con-
tinues from dead center to dead center :;
that is, continues during the entire
stroke of the piston. - .-~. .
The valve now in use commences to
exhaust before the piston head reaches

the end Of the stroke. Where the en-
CINE is hooked up the exhaust COM
mences seven inches before the piston
head reaches the end of the cylinder.
When it is not hooked up the exhaust
Will commence shorter distance, say
five inches.
No Waste Of Power.
With this valve the engine gets the
benefit OF the expansion of all the
steam in the cylinder, avoiding waste
of power. With the valve now in use
the exhaust commences from five to
seven inches before the pistonhead
reaches the dead center or the end Of
the cylinder, and the expansive power
of the steam from that point to the end
of the cylinder is lost. Not only so, but
the exhaust, when the engine is hooked
up, is cut . Oft quickly, when the piston.
the cylinder, FIVE inches, and compress
sion sets in and there is considerable
resistance to overcome.
HWith this valve there. is complete
exhaustion and no preadmission of
steam, hence no compression and no
Ineutralizing Of the power Of the steam.
There is not only no compression but
there is very much less strain on the
machinery. The pumping. process
necessarily creates great strain, some
times resulting, as is known to practi-
cal railroad men, in bursting the head of
the cylinder or breaking a crankpin.
There are numerous other adVan-
tages to the device which have won the
admiration of every practical engineer
who has seen the valve and watched 1t
work. We have sufficient backing with
us to enable us to begin manufacturing
on large scale in the near future

with the valve. showed speed Of six
and one-half miles in four minutes with
one full stop. The inventor claims
that with this valve on specially con-
structed high speed engine, speed
may be attained which will entirely
outclass any records of the present time.
On Locomotive.
A coal train engine. equipped with
the device, running between Genterville
and Keokuk, was able to take grades
at thirty five miles an hour, which it
could barely make with the ordinary
type of valve. The sworn statement
OF the engineer gives a 40 per cent saw
ing, in coal and water.
Tests have been made at the Univer-
slty OF Minnesota, for some time under
the direction of Professor Cavanaugh.
The engine used was a 16 horsepower
valve, but using the old cylinder I'm
der these adverse conditions the expert
ments showed an actual saving Of TN
per cent on both, fuel and water. The
GOodspeed valve is now in actual use
on more than sixty engines, none Of
which are showing a saving Of less
than 80 per cent.
Within sixty days the new company
expects to be able to begin the business
OF remodeling old engines and fitting
them with the new device. The work
OF building permanent plant for the
manufacture of engines, is to follow as
and the plant erected. -
The TECHNICAL advantages of this de-
VICE. said Mr.. Hardy, care such that
they are hard to explain to person

enables the valve to accomplish better
results than any to be obtained with the
old style cylinder.

Tested Four Years.
For four years, practical tests have
been made, with the result that the
claims Of the inventor have been made
good. IF these tests are any indication
Of what the valve will do when in act
ual use, it is expected that the Good
speed valve will result in a revolution
of the manufacture of steam engines
and the use of steam as motive pow
er. The manager of the company and
the inventor claim that this new valve,
under any circumstances, will result in
saving of fuel and water amounting
to 80 Der cent The full expansive
power of the steam is utilized, and by
the use of the attachment, an engine
is able to start a 80 per. cent greater
load than with the old type of valve on

bond for &5o,ooo There will be three
new towns, MELVILLE. Lake View and
Rock Lake. A new engine and passen-
ger and baggage coaches are TO be
purchased. Work of grading will be
commenced at once and the road will
be ready for trains about July j. The
farmers along the line who own stock
are well pleased with the results Of
two years, and claim they have more
than made the price Of the stock in
the saving Of long hauls in marketing
their grain. The right of way has been
secured and two town sites already sur-
veyed.

this will cause further split. The
Great Actions Committee, realizing the
difficulties of the situation, have decided
Upon q diplomatic move, which will not
only prevent a further split, but may
cement the different factions.
s3 So as not to offend the British govern
irient, and satisfy the opponents of the
scheme the committee has decided to di-
vorce the East Africa scheme from the
Zionists programme and invite the CO.
operation Of all other Jewish institu-
tons to discuss the report Of the COM
mission with view of deciding upon
a definite answer to the British govern
mem. az n Ia.
Us The object Of the Zionists in accept
ing the. offer Of land is. to establish a
temporary Jewish state with local auton-
oilly. but many Jewish institutions are
opposed to this idea. Without the IL
1laiicial assistance Of other Jewish In
stitlltlons the Zionists feel they will be
unable to, accept the offer, as they have
mo money available for that purpose,
and the scheme must eventually fall
through, after spending about $4,000
on the expedition. The financial inabil-
.ity to place 10000 Jews on the land Of
lfered was very well known BY many
leading Zionists. who therefore voted
against commission being sent, and
wasting valuable time and money. All
this will again come up at the Zionist
Congress to be held in Switzerland

EhBEZzLER HAD THE

Of hay from farmers, very little of which
had been paid for and all of it had been
