IL Was Ushered Into Actual Use In
Most Dramatic Fashion.
The air brake was ushered into act1-
al use in most dramatic fashion. The
trial trip occurred in April, 1869. The
train selected was the Steubenville ac-
commodation, running between Pitts
burg and Steubenville, O.
r When the train was going at full
speed, suddenly as he came around "a
sharp curve the engineer saw a stalled
wagon in the middle of the track dead
ahead. With only hand brakes moth
ing could have prevented terrible
smashup. The formal time for the
trial Of the air brake had not come,
but the brake was there, and In des-
peration, not believing for a moment
that the thing could possibly avail, the
engineer threw on the air. But it did

about the origin and significance of
the launching custom. the chances are

+ It is survival of barbaric custom
when sacrifices were made to the gods

blood flowed over the PROV of the ship

tized in warm blood. Now sparkling
wine or pure water is used, and the
change has many advantages, though
the symbolism remains.
There is another curious custom
aboard ship that is interesting In the
way 1t has been handed down to us.

try, the moment that his ship enters

Of welcome, This custom was obsery-

the correct thing for port to fire it's

greatest barrier to future encroach-
