THE STORY OF THE AIR BRAKE.

The story of the invention Of the
air-brake as told by Paul Latzke In
an article on George Westinghouse, IN
the May Everybody'S. reads like 1c-
ton. After the idea OF controlling the
brakes from the engine cab had been
suggested to young Westinghouse by
a I'd collision, the writer says:
His first thought was an automatic
brake attached to the coup!ers. This
soon proved itself faIlacious. Then he
tried steam. But a test convinced him
that here, too. he was working along
impractical lines. BY the time steam
was sent from the engineers cab 70
the brakes 1t had lost all power. At
this point came Fate.
The sun OF an August MONDAY was
blazing With d heat 80 intense that
man was PROSTATE. In the WeSting-
Gus Agricultural Works all activity
was hushed. Most Of the men were
away at dinner; in the little wooden
office that stood a few rods from the
works the clerks yawned with eyhaus-
ton. At one OF the desks. however,
was g mind the steaming heat could
not subdue. Then. as now. George
Westinghouse knew neither heat nor
cold When there was work to do. ON
this day. as usual, he was putting in
the noon hour at his fathers Office.
working on his brake plans. Immers-
Cd IN his labors. he was suddenly
startled by the appearance at his side
of a little girl.
Wont you take it, please?' she
said: 'they-pointing to the clerks
don't want it
Take WHAT he asked, only half
recalled from his plans.
This magazine. I'm putting in
my vacation getting subscriptions.
Mr.. Westinghouse has always been
generous and g~ood-natured. Quite
naturally. therefore. he took it. alb
stractedly. never dreaming of the ire
mendous results that were to flow
from this Slight kindness. The little
girl thanked him and disappeared.
She never entered his life again.
Even her name is forgotten and the
name of the magazine.
The magazine came along in due
course of time. and Mr.. Westinghouse
was idly turning its leaves one Sep
tember evening. when his attention
was riveted by a small item that de-
scrihed the building of the Mont Gents
tunnel. 1t related that compressed
air was being used as motive power
for drills working three thousand
feet underground. Instantly the mind
of the inventor saw the light.
I've got IT. he exclaimed. and
throwing down the magazine he be-
gan TO sketch roughly the plans of the
first air-brake as it was afterward APP
