BOLD HIGHWAYMEN HOLD
 UP A PASSENGER TRAIN

it was hold-up, and went forward and found that the bandits had cut the mail car and the engine from the train, or dered everyone out of the mall car, talk ing the engineer with them mile down the track and throwing him off. After taking two shots at the fireman and driv- ing him off the engine, they discovered a young man beating a ride on the engine tank One of the bandits said: We over looked you; get off, too," and they took five shots at him. He fell off the tank and rolled down the embankment. It was supposed he had been bit, but he soon came back to the train badly frightened
 He gave us some valuable information concerning the hold-up. He had been rid ing on the engine from Standpoint, and says two men came out of the Pacific hotel at Standpoint and climbed to the top of No. 8, Keeping out of sight until they had reached Rathdrum. As the train started from that place, they came down and attempted to cut the train while in motion. but failed, and not until the train came to a fulh stop did they suc- ceed. The booty was registered mail, but how much is not known.

CAM, Burke from now on. Today was the

little faltering. :

very impressive affair The whole ten

drill and a band concert in the after
noon will be rieidly observed from now
on. r.
Some Of the things that must be car
ried through at the. encampment are
being delayed more OF less by the
weather. One of these is the shooting
contest for places on the state rifle
team. The wind and light have been so
variable in the last few days that Brig.
GEM. c. Gearey, who is in charge of
the team selection. has not taken his
men out for range practice at all as yet.
This condition cannot last long, though,
and Gen. Gearey hopes to get the sharp
shooters out for their trials Wednesday.
Each compny has from one to twenty
men certified for the contest. that have
fulfilled all the drill and practice re-
quirements during the year and have
made the rank of marksman. There will
be only fifteen men taken to Camp

competition for each place. 4&

SECRETARY BLAIsDELL
IS NOT IN RACE

- r. +. ~ -. #. g.y.sl-.. ~ H.r.-..
Minot Daily Optic, July 13-Secretary
of State Blaisdell. when seen today about
the rumor of his congressional candi-
dacy, stated emphatically that he knew
nothing about it and that it was alto
gether too early to talk about candi-
dacies. He further said: Il am very
tired Of politics just now, and further
more particularly dislike the Rhode
Island nomination of the republican
party. and the opposition to, substantial
revision of the tariff downwards. l
appreciate the fact that our congress
sional delegation al Washington have
many intricate problems confronting
them and I am still hoping that they
will eventually be able 10 aid a SUBJ
%stantial downward revision.
THE republican party in this state is
in a bad way. Consistency is surely
being lot sight Of. Last year as a re-
publican candidate I was much opposed
to the resolution Of the state committee
endorsing the guaranty Of bank deposits,
not only for the reason that the proposed
form was a piece of demaeogery, but
for the further reason that it was a
direct slap at the public u~tterances of
the presidential candidate. who repre-
scented the real head of the party.
Il am now equally opposed to revis-
ing the tariff upward not only for the
reason that the people really oppose it
and that it is time the middle west
ceased to be the tail of the Rhode Island
kite, but for the further reason that it
is a direct slap at the public utterances
of the president, who represents the re-
publican voters, and who made the
pledge for substantial revision down.

should not a second time be placed in
the unfortunate position of direct oppo-
sition1 to the public utterances and
promises Of the National Republican
party.

power per each stroke. Consequently
the result would be that the power
generated in a single revolution is 240
per cent units of power, as against the
200 per cent units generated by four
cycle. This is in each revolution of
the crank. Multiply that by the num-
ber of revolutions of the crank In
mile and it is easily seen that the same
size piston and stroke would not only
generate more power, but would have
applied II just twice as often as the
four cycle. If it were possible to make
a one-cycle engine we would have
gained even over the two-cycle, as we
would multiply the impulse of power,
consequently getting nearer the result
of the application of electric power.
In short, the same argument for the
four-cycle gas machine against the
two-cycle would apply to an argu-
ment that an alternating electric
would make more power by making
the pulsations or alterations farther
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-19

admit of the exhaust or burning gases
escaping under and through them as
they do in the four-cycie engine, 1t is
certainly an advantage. Consequently.
If it is possible to generate power in
a two-cycle engine, it seems that 1t
needs no other argument whatever.
In the four-cycle type Of gas engine
the piston gets it's power stroke, is
forced down, delivers it's power, and
then not only lies idle for two whole
revolutions and works its cams and
opens and shuts it's valves twice in
the two revolutions but takes part Of
the power generated in its previous
stroke and the impetus or power
stored in the fly wheel to compress Its
new charge.
It has often occurred to me that
two and four cycle engine might be
compared to a person jumping rope.
It is a comparatively easy feat to
swing a rope over your head and jump
just in time to let 1T pass under your
feet. But suppose you tried to jump
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-19

apart rather than occurring as they
do, about 1900 pulsations per minute.
You would hardly find an electrical en-
gineer who would argue such point
at all.
The fact that a number of the lead
ing manufacturers now making four
cycle engines are trying out two-cycle
engines would seem to point to but
one conclusion, namely, that ultimately
all of the leading manufacturers will
perforce, II not from choice, be using
the two-cycle engine. AS soon as the
automobile-buying public gets to know
the real merits and advantages of the
two-cycle engine over it's more COM
plicated sister, the four-cycle, we will
see a great hustling among the manu-
faeturers to change the models of their
engines to the two-cycle type.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-19

high enough to let it make two whole
revolutions under your feet before you
light. That is about the difference
between. the two and four-cycle en-
gines. One has to generate power
enough in one power stroke or jump
to carry the fly wheel or rope two
whole revolutions before 1t gets an
other, or lights. One could go further
in this comparison and compare the
excessive energy and strength ex-
pended and the strain on the system
in thus having to jump high enough
to swing the rope twice beneath ones
feat to the excessive strain on the ma
chinery and working parts in thus hav-
ing Ito get a given horse power) to de-
liver a power stroke sufficient to make
that power and carry over two revolu-
tions in the four-cycle to the more
