Engines Likely to ''Cut Capcrs" Like
q Frisky Col al Must Ne Tested.
Few persons outside the realm Of the
operating department Of n railroad
know anything of The ofttlmes veAa
tlous peculiarities and not ~infrequent-
ly seemingly Intelligent calers of a
locomotive when being broken to its
mission In the world. Each new engine
must undergo a SET training or test
before 1t Is put into actual service.
and each locomotive which has gone
through The shops for repairs IS given
a certain working out before 1t Is re-
turned to it's erstwhile duties.
According to the Chattanooga Times
some locomotive manufacturing compa-
MES complete their engines ready for
actual service before sending them out I:
others ship them to the destination In
a partial "knockdown" state and they
are completed In the shops Of the road
to which they are delivered.
When a new engine is taken into a
shop 1t Is turned over to Il mechanic
whose duty 1t Is 10 lit 1t up and make
all connections and adjustments Of the
interior mechanism. This completed,
the engine is turned over to o fireman,
who steams it up and blows it of in
order to remove any grease that might
have accumulated in the boiler or any
such foreign substance as might cause
a boiler to foam" while il service.
The engine is then turned over to an
engine driver, whose duty it Is to
break" II la. The engine is steamed
up again, and If it Will run It Is taken
fer a little try-out about the yard.
The science OF locomotive building
has been developed to such a fine point
that there Is little danger now Of an
engine ~"buckling" on It's first trial. The
main feature In the test is to see that
there is 10 heating in the Journals or
rod brasses. If there is no heating the
engine is run about the yards for about
half a day and the steam Is again
blown from the boiler.
The engine is then steamed up and
taken for a long run on the main line.
If during this test there are no capers
cut the engine is sent out for Its lrst
trip, with about 500 tons to draw. If 1t
runs all right the tonnage is gradually
increased to 600 tons. The tonnage de-
ponds greatly upon the size OF the en-
CINE. The average engine of to-day
will draw about $50 tons on A noun
famous road md from 1900 to 1000
tons over a level haul. The test speed
Is from one to twenty miles an hour.
Heating is n OF the principal dis
eases Of an engine and it is this feature
the engine driver looks to more thar,
anything else. The mechanical sense
Of the engine driver is so developed
that he can detect the least defect
about his engine.

CIAL CLVB
Enthusia site Gathering De
clares for Better Advertis-
ins OF the Camp

AAACONAAAh
men of this locality was held at the Mug
get Office last Monday evening and a
commercial club was organized for the
purpose of promoting the interests of this
camp. Silver is one of the oldest mining
camps in Idaho and although the de-
monitization OF silver was sad blow to
the mines, the owners have kept pegging
away, saving wood and saying nothing" :"
knowing that the time would come when
the old camp would be recognized as the
most permenant producer in the coun-
try. For over 40 years this camp has
been regular producer and although
many other sections of the west have
doomed for time and then gone down,
yet Silver has kept steadily ON producing
rich ore and profitable mines. The his
tory of all mining camps shows that
more mines prove failures through mis-
management than because the mines are
not good property. It takes money to
develop mines, lots of it, but the final
returns are enormous if properly managed.
There are many ways in which an or
ganization such as Commercial Club
can do much good in the development of
the resources of the community. lin
unity there is strength, !" and by uniting
and working for the advancement of this
mining region, we will soon see marked
improvement in business and conditions
in general.
Every merchant, every mining man
and in fact all who are interested in the
good and welfare of this section of the
country should get busy in this movement,
join the Club, help get new members,
push and aid in every way possible as it
is not a matter of helping few, but will
help all and all should aid to obtain the
best results possible.
1t might be suggested that branch
clubs he organized in different sections of
this district; say one in De Lamar, one
in Flint district, etc. These branch clubs
can affiliate with one another and have
one main club, say at Silver, and then
let every member get in and dig and the
very best results are bound to follow.
1t is of the greatest importance that
this club should thrive and prosper and
every one should readily see the great
advantage it will be to the interests of all
The club proposes, among other things,
to get out book, giving full write-up
of this entire mining district, descriptive
in every detail of interest, for extensive
distribution.
The next regular meeting win be held
Monday evening, October 9th. All are
invited to attend. All in all, the future
looks good to US. Let us jump in and
clean up things ready for the harvest.
