FOR USE IN THE MOUNTAINS
Monster Locomotives That Are Con-
struoted With a Capacity for
"Gettlno There"

Not long ago the railroads resorted
to the use Of from one to six. locomo-
tives coupled together to pull heavy
freight trains over steep grades in
the mountains of the West. That was
costly pulling, for each engine re-
quired q half crew. Where as many
as half q dozen locomotives manned
by q dozen or more men were need
ed, now q monster locomotive de-
signed especially for crawling over
"the hump" In the mountains does
the work at a great saving. The mon.
ster machines may Justly be termed
the "dreadnaughts" of the railroad
world, for certainly they fear no load
man cen put on them. They car
walk of" with q string of cars look
ing nearly as long as the tail OF Hal.
ley's comet, and they will do Il be-
fore or after meals, or In all sorts OF
weather. One OF these great loco.
motives will weigh as much as a whole
train Of the type in use a few years
ago. They are not built for speed
Just for getting there" when the
right Of way starts skyward. A fea.
ture OF their construction enables
them 10 use their strength to keep
the heavy trains behind them from
running awny on a down grade.

Motors Save Millions.

Automobile equipment will enable
the fire department of New York to
save more than 81, 300, 900 this year
over last, and this in spite OF the fact
that fifteen new fire houses are to be
opened and several hundred additional
iremen employed. Fire Commissioner
Johnson stated recently that he had
asked for a budget totaling 1885,.
399.46 for 1914, as against $11,299,.
1910 last year. Johnson credits the
extensive motorization Of the depart
ment with a large part Of the saving.
Next year the department will be even
more completely motorized, there be.
tng 1877 fewer horses. In the new budg.
OF Is included a request for twenty
motors, twelve being tractors for
steam fire engines, to cost $4,000, and
eight motor tenders, to cost $4,000.

Kerosene for Autos.

During next October a series of In.
.erest1ng tests will be held In Paris
under the auspices of the Automobile
club of France, with the object of
stimulating the use of kerosene as a
fuel particularly for automobiles.
Prizes amounting to $12,5 500 are of.
Fered, the first of which may be $1O,.
OOO. The test is not a carburetor test,
but Is designed to demonstrate the eff.
dciency, fuel consumption and other
points of four-cylinder engines of the
automobile type. rating between TWEEN.
ty and thirty horsepower. The French
automobile industry generally has
great hopes Of the future Of kerosene
as a fuel for automobiles, and It Is ex.
pected that this test, which is attract.
Ing contestants from all over the
world, may develop some interesting
results.

Handles Are ExtensIble.

handles can be made various lengths
to suit the purpose for which It is
used. This truck. is made Of strips of
spring steel, and at the upper ends
the handles are curved pronouncedly.
In general appearance 1t is the same
as the ordinary truck, but the handles
are made in two slidable sections. For
use on the ground the handles can be-
extended their full length, but when
an expressman wants to carry a trunk
on his back he can shorten them to a
convenient length and hook the curved
ends over his shoulders. Thus he can.
not only support his burden more COM
fortably than when he has to hold 1t
on by his hands, but those important
members arc left free to open doors
