These trains are hauled at high, speeds, on exacting schedules. Locomotives for such service must not only be of suf ficient size to develop the required power; they must also be economical in fuel and water consumption, and must not deliver destructive blows to the tracks and bridges when running at high speeds. An efficient self propelled power plant 1 required, and high engineering skill is neces sary to producet It. The new S3 engines Just placed in service by the Burlington, represent the latest development of the Pacific type for heavy passenger service. These engines appear to be the em bodiment of power and strength and impress one by their wonderful Bize. Built as high as they can be and ne gotiate bridges, the parts above the boiler on the outside are made as low as possible to obtain the results needed and remain within the pre scribed height to meet bridge re quirements. The whistle protrudes from the side of the dome instead o: the top on account of the height o the boiler. Tbe stack is sqii't ami broad, and the bell, while of i .erage size, seems smaller because of the masslveness of the boiler. TheBe engines are of the super heater type, thus providing fuel econ omy and a greater energy from a les ser amount of steam than noes ny me i io,6QO older and more common type or en gines using the saturated st am sys tem. The boiler pressure, Because, of the superheater construction, la but 180 pounds of steam, an amount that many of the smaller engines carry. A number ot new and late devices for conservation of motive power, greater speed, etc.. are seen on these engines. These monsters are over seventy five feet long and, ready for service, weigh upward of half a million pounds. A six-foot man, wearing a silk hat, could stand erect the lit tle end of the boiler and a good-sized barrel could be placed inside of one of the Immense cylinders. These great power units were built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works, Philadelphia, to pull the nurlintrton's crack limlteds. No one knowB how fast they will run. But one of them will draw a long heavy train of Pullmans at a sustained speed of sixty miles an hour, without much more concern than a youngster duIIs a toy wagon dqwn the street There is ample reserve power to in sure the punctual . maintenance of schedules, even under adverse weath er conditions. sioner, has Just returned from tbe Fire Marshals' Convention at Chica go, and while there made a thorough Investigation as to the constitution ality of the fire marshals' law In dif ferent states In regard to condemn ing and having removed old and dil apidated buildings and finds that In every Instance, In states where cases have been brought before the courts the fire marshals' law has been sus tained. Cases have been tried In Ohio, Indiana and North Dakota, and in Ohio a case has gone to the court of appeals and has been sustained by that court. This law Is virtually the same in all states where there tis a fire marshal law and In the future the fire marshal's department of Nebras ka will Insist on this law being com piled with and will go Into the courts where necessary. Cases have been filed this week In North Platte and Holdregn and will be pushed as fast as possible. The office force of the Nebraska Insurance Department have been ex ceedingly busy mailing out the annu al summary of insurance business in Nebraska for the year 1914. This report Is much larger this year than any prevlouB year, owing to Increas ed business in this line. The county commissioners of John son county and State Auditor Smith have reached an agreement on the o la I in of tbe state against that coun ty "i what is known as the old ln Si account. Under the old law i euuuiies paid for the care of their in sane patients at the state hospital, but a few years ago this law was hanged and hospital charges are now a state expense. For some rea son a few counties failed to pay for maintaining their patients, the state laving the largest account against Johnson county, which still owes At the conference at Te- cumseh between the commissioners and the state auditor, they agreed to remit f 2,500 on the account at once and pay the rest as soon as the coun ty la in financial shape to do so. When Ilaby Ilae tbe Croup When a mother la awakened from sound sleep to find her child who baa gone to bed apparently In the beat of health struggling for breath, she Is naturally alarmed. Yet If she can keep her presence, of mind and give Chamberlain'! Cough Remedy every ten minutes until vomiting Is pro duced, quick relief will follow and the child will drop to sleep to awaken In the morning as well as ever. This remedy has been In use for many years with uniform success. Obtaina ble everywhere. Adv Oct G 0 a 0 ii )r3G ASHBY 3G 3E 0 0 3D Ashby. Nebr.. Oct. 20 R. E.

Hall is malt ing a record in the treasurer's ofliie. His order, supported by the decision of the Supreme Court, requiring county treasurers to make monthly remittances of all moneys collected each month for the state, has paid the state's debts and stopped the pay lng of Interest by the state, and la bringing a greater return of Interest from the depository funds la the banks. During Treasurer Hall's term of office this will mean a saving 160,000 to 175,000. He has already colected $7,000 more Interest from the banks for the same period of time than any former treasurer.
