TO sUPPLANT STEAM.
PENNSYLVANIA. and Wabash to Use EIec-
trio Power in Shops.

Electricity is to be used at many
of the larger railroad shops of the
country, especially in the east, to sup
plant steam. Engineers are now
working on plans for the change from
small boilers and engines to electrical
apparatus which will mean the ex-
penditure of a vast sum of money.
That the change is to be made in the
near future is manifested by the fact
shat lectures on electricity and its
uses are being given to shopmen and
repairmen by experts employed by the
Pennsylvania and other roads.
A good example of the manner in
which electric current can be used In
replacing small boilers and engines
about old railroad shops is shown in
improvements along the main line of
the wabash. The principal object of
this installation was to enable the
company to improve the water supply
which had been growing more unsat-
isfactory each year.
AS the supply became exhausted
during the dry season and between
100000 and 100000 gallons we're used
daily, 1t was necessary during five or
six months of the year to haul this
water twenty-six miles by rail and
empty 1t into a pond and then repump
1t for the locomotives and the shops.
w. H. Hopkins, electrical engineer
for the Wabash, is now working on
plans for the installation of electrical
equipment at other points along the
Wabash.

Sallna Wants to Get UniCn

Would Have Them Removed
From Armstrong.

way Circles.
FARMERS WILL HELP.

Salina, Kan, Nov 27.-Farmers liv-
ing northeast of town are talking of
making offers to the Union Pacific to
induce the railroad company to re-
locate the Armstrong shops here.
This is according to E. l. Wilder,
secretary of the Commercial club. with
whom these farmers have been in COM
munication lately.
"A prominent farmer living north
east of town told me the other day that
he and his neighbors would be willing
to subscribe sums ranging from $500 to
$4,000 for the purpose of bringing the
Union Pacific Armstrong shops here -
said Mr. Wilder today.
He also said that these farmers
could we'll afford to do this as such an
addition to Salina would add to the
value of their land. The Commercial
club could cooperate with them.
at is understood that Junction City
will make an inducement to have the
shops located there.
1.-THE shops coming to Salina would
bring several hundred men to our city.
zone reason the men northeast of
Salina are interested in this matter is
that the Union Pacific has purchased
considerable land in that vicinity, so
that If the shops came to Salfna they
would very probably be located just
northeast of town.
TT is generally understood that the
Armstrong shops will be moved to some
other town sooner or later. While TINS
cannot be officially confirmed indica-
lions are to that effect"
The shops have not been kept up
since the flood at Armstrong three
years ago. 1t is talked that the change
of location will take place in the near
future.

WATER ENGINES ON RUN.
Norton Minister Has Unique Patent
on Invention.

Norton, Kan, Nov. 27.-Rev. A. N.
See the well known Methodist minister,
Is now selling stock in the invention
which he patented a short time ago
and which railroad men say, will revo-
Iutionize things in railroad circles.
Rev. Mr.. Sees invention consists of a
tender for railroad engine so devised
that when going at a great rate OF
speed 1t will take on coal and water.
No stops are necessary and this is the
saving of time which railroads have
long sought after.
BY an ingenious arrangement as the
train pulls near to the place where a
car of water and a car of coal are
standing on trestles beside the railroad
the car of water and coal. both cars
much smaller than the tender itself,
which are already in the tender, are
showed outwards and they meet square
" on the rails on the trestle. They
slide along it and stop and the tender,
as it goes along, picks up the other
two cars which have been filled and
goes on without them. Thus it has a
full supply of water and coal and no
stops. BY the same arrangement a de-
vice to take on passengers can be had.
Another patent is sliding floor
which is worked by the fireman and
does away with shoveling. When coal
is needed, open goes the furnace door,
the coal on the slide floor is shot into
the furnace, just as much as needed.
and the door is closed again

CAPT. SARGENT CALLED
TO THE WHITE HOUSE.
President Roosevelt Deeply lnteres-

PRESIDENT hooSeNeu DeePiy iHtSISS-
!. ted in His Book on santi-
ago Campaign.
The Carinville, nll.,) Democrat
gives the following interesting ac-
count of a visit of Capt. H. H. Sar-
gent. formerly of the A. & NJ. Col
lege, to the white house at Washing
ton. by request of President Roose-
welt:
The friends of Capt. Sargent, now
stationed at Fort Des Moines, Ia, will
be glad to learn that his last book:
THE Campaign of Santiago de Gu
ba" has met with the highest common
dation from military men generally
and his superior officers particularly.
AS soon as the president had read
the three volumes he ordered his
aide Capt. Mccoy to order Capt. Sar-
gent. who at the time was in the
campaign in South Dakota, TO come
to Washington on temporary duty. as
he wished to talk with him about
his book in which he was very much
inNtlCoACus
Our captain Immediately put his
trunk and bedding roll on fast mule,
rode 107 miles in 3 days and is
miles in government wagons to the
railroad thence to Washington where
he was splendidly received by the
president, invited to lunch with sew
eral prominent people, among them
the German ambassador and his wife.
OF course the talk was over the
CAPTAINS new book and the 'presi-
dent and other officers went over the
entire campaign and the president
among other minor criticisms, compG-
.mented him very highly on his de-
scription of the action at Las Guas
imas and invited him back the next
day for another hours talk The
fact that the captain was ordered to
travel 1,600 miles from South Da-
kota and 1900 miles back to Des
Moines shows Roosevelt interest
ed to see Capt Sargent and have
talk with him and probably to size
him up for future usefulness. The
Democrat, as always, is pleased to
hear that our Macoupin boys and
graduates of Blackburn are prosper
ing in 'their life's work.

METHODIST CHURCH REVIVAL.

The parable Of the vine and the
branches supplied DR.. Packard with
subject of great possibilities at the
Methodist church last night, and the
theme was handled in way new
to many veterans in church atten-
dance. DR.. Packards reasoning was
fine, his illustrations forcible and the
applications convincing. The special
subject of the sermon was Fruit
Bearing" Among the most forcible
points made were that only the new
gorwth of the vine from year to year
bears fruit. and the wrapping of ten
drills about a fruitful stem will cut
off ifs life apd destroy its fruitfulness.
In the same manner there must be
continuous spiritual growth, and the
tendrils of evil influences must be
cut away from the spiritual life If
IL would bear fruit
Both services were well attended
yesterday. and strong interest mani
tested. Rev. Turrentine was unable
to attend the services, but hopes TO
be out today.

served together on several Important

full and efficient in the discharge OF
any duty imposed upon him, and al
though he was rarely heard upon the
floor OF the house he welded splen-
did influence upon the legislature in
which he quietly participated. His
special work was in behalf OF the

mine was the establishment by the
state OF a college for the education
of the white girls of Texas along in
dustrial and strictly practical lines.
Whatever conflicts may have after

gree influenced by them, but support

his claims for support of the A. e. NJ.
