New Knjrlne Recently Placed In Sr
vice by Burlington Ilprwent
Latest Tactile Tjjxi
Tbe locomotive used today In
through passenger service are requir
ed to haul trains which are often as
heavy as the freight trains of a com
paratively few years ago. 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.

State Trei.Burer O. 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.
