WHY THE TERM HORSEPOWER
Originated With Watt, Who Produced
the First Practical Steam
Machinery.

When we say that an engine de.
velops 100 horsepo -er we do not
mean that one hundred horses could
produce the same result. And, as the
editor of Power remarks, there are
few engineers who could tell just how
the terms horsepower" came into
use. Its origin is related in the fol-
lowing quotation from "Farey on the
Steam Engine" published in 1927:
"The machinery in the great brew.
cries and distilleries in London was
then moved by the strength of horses,
and the proprietors of those esta b,ish-
ments who were first to require Mr..
Watts engines always inquired what
number of horses an intended engine
would be equal to.
'Tn consequence, Mr.. Watt made
some experiments on the strong
horses employed by the brewers in
London, and found that horse of
that kind, walking at the rate of 21s
miles per hour. could draw $50 pounds
avoirdupois by means of a rope pass
ing over pulley, so as to raise up
that weight, with a vertical motion,
at the rate of 220 feet per minute.

equal to $4,000 pounds Tor 52S cubic

through space Of foot per minute,
and he denominated it horsepower.

exerted By his steam engines"
This estimate is much beyond the
capacity of the average strong horse,

ly engineers estimated that $4,000
pounds per minute was more accur-

driving her you receive a months

Summers" said Nikolai to me on
the following morning, as we sat to-
gether in the stable, there Is only
one course for us to pursue. That
young Schmidt is regular sentimen-
tai German, and it is evident that, in
his clownish way, he has fallen in love
with the princess and would die to
serve her. Now to unfold our scheme
% him would mean immediate disclos-
ure and our arrest. We must enlist
his aid under the pretense that we
are secret agents of the princess, who
wishes to escape to her lover. Under
that belief he will join us in our
scheme-possibly the princess will
herself willingly come with us-and
we will drive into the country. Then
stopping the machine, we will induce
young Schmidt to descend under some
preteXt or other and will at once start
her again and leave him behind us.
Could anything be simpler?'
The plan did indeed seem feasible.
On the following night, having re-
ceived many condolences from Schmidt
as to the princess's dislike for her
Polish suitor, Nikolai very cautiously
led up to his plan.

his cot. half undressed listening with
open mouth. OF q sudden he sprang

room, sprang upon Nikolai and threw
his arms around his neck and kissed
him impet, ,,ously upon either cheek.

he said, in a mollifed tone. His high.
ness would raise the devil with me If
the machine were not in running or

and, as We followed him, caught sight
of a tiny spurt of flame at the prin-
cess's window.
The chamberlain perceived it, too,
He looked in astonishment up through
the clustering ivy; and then-I saw a
form that clung from the window sill,
and presently a tiny. slippered foot
protrude.
Luckily l kept my self-possession.

cranking furiously. ! don't know what
Nikolai did, but a moment later
heard a stified scream, the sound of a
fall upon wet turf; and then the
chamberlain, his eyes protruding with
horror, backed toward the garage. But
all this while l was cranking and the
automobile was commencing to snort
like an impatient race horse Next
moment Schmidt and Nikolai came
running into the garage, half leading,
half carrying the princess. They
placed her in the automobile and
sprang in l cranked once more; sud-
denly the thing began to start, and as
| leaped in-there was no time to
steer for anything but the center of
the door-the machine caught the
chamberlain in the middle of his broad
back and hurled him dozen feet
away. l heard the thud of his body;
and then he began screaming.
On the instant a blaze of electric
lights appeared in the vacated apart
ment of the princess.
Here! Get out of this!" yelled
Schmidt; and, pushing me aside, he
took the wheel The machine was
leaping over the Prince of Cassel-Wex-
els rose bushes. We rushed across
the broad lawns toward where an open
space appeared in the high wall that
surrounded the castle. "Close the
gates!" / heard somebody yell; and
the cry seemed to be taken up on ev-
cry side But they were too late. Just
