One hundred and nineteen years ago
today, July 4. 1901:
IAN experiment took place on the
River Thames, for the purpose OF
working a barge or any other heavy
craft against the tide by means OF a
steam engine on a very simple con-
siruction. The moment the engine
was set to work, the barge was
brought about quickly, and she made
way against a strong current, at the
rate OF two and half miles an hour" "
That's what the history books say,
but they omit TO mention what was
undoubtedly the truth, something like
this:
THE fact that the engine made the
barge go at all was a great disap-
pointment TO a large concourse OF
amateur inventors and scientists, who
lined the river bank and offered
cbuokle-headed opinions for hours
before the experiment was begun.
They were unanimous IN but one
Thing: That the bally contraption
could not possibly work. After the
barge began to pun her way upstream
Nthe banks were as bare Of people as
an iceberg In the Arctic.
