day is a sample of what Il is, going to
be, we are not much impressed with H..
The whistle is guaranteed to be heard
for a distance of eight miles, but this
is when it is erected right over the boil

tie has been placed 70 feeh from the
boiler, and under the present conditions
the steam condenses before reaching the
whistle, which lessons the strength OF
the whistle. 1t is doubtful IL the city
will accep. this whistle as II now sounds
as it is not strong enough to be beard
