NEW TYPE OF LOCOMOTIVE
British Railroad Line Is Experiment Ing With What Is Known as the
 Turbine-EIectric."

The North British railway officials are predicting great things for a new type of locomotive, known as the 'turbine-electric," which 1t has been testing. The tests have proved satis- factory as far as they have prog ressed. The locomotive is a self contained, steam-electric generating affair. Steam is generated in a boiler of the ordinary locomotive type, fitted with a superheater. The steam Is then led to a turbine of the impulse running type, making 5000 revolu. ttons a minute. To this is directly connected continuous current, varia- ble voltage dynamo. The dynamo supplies current and pressure varying from 200 to 800 volts to four series wound traction motors, the armatures of which are built on the four main driving axles of the locomotive
 The exhaust steam from the tur- bine passes into an eiector conden- ser, and is eventually delivered to the hot well. AS the steam turbine re- quires no internal fabrication. the condensed hot water is free from oil and is returned direct from the hot well to the boiler by a feed pump Thus the water evaporated by the boiler Is returned to it again and again. A forced draft Is provided by means of a small turbine driving fan.
 The controlling instruments are all on the drivers platform and within easy reach. The switchboard is small and the operation of the loco motive is simple. It's inventors pre- dict that it will make a great saving in railroad transportation and opera tion cost, and make identification a fact of the near future without the necessity of costly wiring

Does Away With Ferries.

The two-track tunnel of the Michi- gan Central railroad, which for sev- eral years has been under construc- tion beneath the Detroit river. be- tween Detroit and Windsor, Ont. has been opened for service. It was con- sidered desirable to familiarize the operating staff of the railroad with conditions before passenger service was inaugurated, and therefore the first trains run through were freight trains. This tunnel will take the place of the powerful railroad car fer ries, which for so many years have been a prominent feature in transpor tation at this point.-Scientif1c Ameri- can.

coIored Silk.

It Is not generally known that some shades of embroidery silk are neces- sarily less fast in color than others. The shades which best hold their color are green, brown, pink, red and pur- pie. Blue and yellow hold 1t worst.
 This Is good thing for the em- broiderer in colors to remember, when she is especially anxious for her colors to remain bright.

1t is announced from Berlin that the
third volume of Rismarck's memoirs
will not he published during the pres
ent kaiser'S lifetime The first two
volumes were published some years
ago and contained many intercStin.
revelations concerning political events
of the period Of Eismarcks official ca
reer and many side lights on the his
tory of those times.
The third volume is known to con
tain an unfavorable account Of the
present kaiser. written in connection
with the circumstances which led to
RiSmarckS dismissal from office in
1890. two years after William lis ac-
cession to the throne. when the Iron
Chancellor conceived 4 fierce hostility
toward the young. impetuous mon
arch.
Some uneaSineSS has been caused at
the German court from time to time
by rumors that Bismarck'S heirs in
tended to publish this volume in the
near future. The announcement now
made is intended to Danish such fears
and make it clear that Rismarck's
Judgment on William II. will not be
given to the world during the kaiser's
reign.
