The Car Heating Problem-
Uastings Gazette-Journa).
A new railroad train heating devise
now on exhibition in Chicago employs
steam from the locomotive. Experiment
has shown that five pounds of steam is
sufficient, when carried off in pipes, to
heat a train of five or six cars. The main
trouble with heating apparatus hitherto
experimented with has been with the
couplings, or joints where the pipes of
one car is temporarily attached to that
of another. The Erie Car Heating
company has an apparatus which promises
to overcome all difficulties. It consist
of course of a main supply pipe, drawing
off steam from the dome of the
boiler, and passing back under the train
From this a minor pipe leads into every
car and connects with a pipe system
there sufficiently numerous to afford sur
face to heat the entire car evenly. The
main feature of the heating arrangement
is the pipe, which is bent into a coil at
each end of the .car. These toils art
made of the best brass spring tubing and
take up all the motion of the train when
it roes around a curve, or when, as i
usually the case, the coaches are swerving
from side tg side. If it were not for the
coils, and the pipes were straight, the
motion would all come on the couplings
which would soon break. Indeed, -so
serious is this difficulty that experiments
are being tried with rubber tubing.
Rubber, however, does not seem suf
ficiently, durable material for such a
purpose. The coils will be covered with
boxes made of some substance which is
a nonconductor of hert, The lateral
motion of the cars will be taken up by
means of a slide-valve, and the coupling
will thus be still farther protected. A
heating device of this kind has been in
use on a train on the Ft. Wayne division
of the Pennsylvania railroad since March
1, last, and has given perfect satissaction.
It is said that enough steam is blown oft
from an engine to heat an ordinary train
The enganeer on the train referred to.
where the steam-heating apparatus was
used weighed the coal burned on a trip
when the cars were heated, and on another
trip when they were not, and found no
appreciable difference.
What's the matter with the gas?
There is more smoke than light, but we
suppose the coit is the same to consum
ers. Now the election is over, cannot
the company afford to stir themselves a

lighting material?

The "Q" to Compete.
Tomorrow a new schedule goe into
effect over the U. P.- which shortens the
time from Omaha to pointi west. The
time from Omaha to San Francisco will
-e 71 hours and 15 15 hours aud 23 min
utes reduction. This, of course, will
greatly reduce the time to all intermediate
points, gi ving the road a preference to
ravel which competing roads could not
stand.
A meeting was held Thursday, in Chi
cago, of the general superintendents of
the roads connecting Chicago with Oma
ha and Kansas City, for the purpose of
considering the adoption of a new -sced-
ulo for the "Q" shortening the time so
as to be able to compete on time. The
"Q's" principal connection, the Denver &
Rio Grande, is not able to reduce its time
between Denver and Ogden, and conse
quently the "Q" is compelled to make all
it i reduction of time between Chicago
and Denver. A savins of five hours can
be made without running faster than
trains arc run between Chicago and St.
Paul. A full discussion of the subject
was had, and as the proposed changes
in time of the "Q" and U. P. would in
volve extensive readjustment of the sched
ules west of Kansas City, it was decided
to endeaver to bring about another meet
ing to which the managers of the lines
west of the Missouri river are to be in
vited.
To the credit of E. S. Greusel I will

Rev. Joseph Mills, of Council Bluffs,
arrived in the city last evening and will
hold services to-morrow morning at ten

The total election returns from the
various counties in Iowa give Larrabee

Samuel Maxwell, for supreme judge
received 2232 majority, in Lancaster
county, over Th os. O'Day; Judge Chap

over Sawyer.

Held by a Pledge!
Never was that empire (of France, in Al
geria) in such danger as in tho Franco-German
war. As soon as it was evident that it
was going against the French, their troops
were recalled from Africa to take part in the
great struggle at home till Algeria was left
almost without defense. Then the hour for
which tho conquered races had long waitetl
had come, and if they could at once have
joined their forces and proclaimed a holy
war, it is altogether probable that the French
would have been driven from northern
Africa. They might have regained Algeria
after the German war was over, but only by
a reietitiou of the years of fighting "which it
cost to conquer it. That the tribes did not
take advantage of this and rise while the
French had their hands full on the other side
of the Mediterranean was owing wholly to
their fidelity to a solemn pledge.
When the war broke out, a chief of great
influence among the tribes, Mokrani, gave
his word to the governor general of Algeria
that there should be no insurrection while the
war lasted. That word was faithfully kept.
The French arms were followed by disaster
after disaster; Napoleon surrendered at
Sedan, and Bazaino surrendered at Metz.
Then it seemed as if a voice from the Rhine
called to tho tribes of Kabylia to seize an op
portunity which might never come again.
But not a man stirred; nor yet when all the
defeats and disgraces of the war culminated
in the siege and surrender of Paris. The
Moslem's faith was plighted; the Moslem's
faith was kept! But when all was over,
when the last battle had been fought, and the
treaty of ieace had been signed at Frankfort,
then Mokrani was released from his pledge,
and then, and not until then, did he declare
war. And still he would take no unfair ad
vantage, but gave forty-eight hours' notice.
Then the war cry went through the moun
tains, and the tribes rushed to the field.

On the "Installment Flan."
Everything in this city goes on the install
ment plan, especially among certain classes,
not necessarily the poorer ones, by the way.
Some time ago a friend of mine was showing
me a fine gold watch, worth at least $100,
which he had recently purcliased. I had not
heard of his falling heir to any property or
having any luck in the L. S. L., and looked a
bit surprised. "I'll tell you how it is," he
said. "I am buying this on the installment
plan. I paid $20 spot cash and the balance in
Iayments of $2 per week. Yes, it will take
forty weeks to buy the watch; but, then, I
have the watch during that time, and every
one supposes I own it." And I found that
many of the young men are doing the same
way.
But I heard of an instance where a young
man had bought his engagement ring on the
installment plan. Ho is getting $7.50 per
week, and has always managed to wear good
clothes, and had one of the prettiest little
gil ls on the East Side for company. At length
thev became engaged, and she exhibited the
ring to some friends, and among them was
an expert in jewelry who told me the story.
"I could not imagine," he said, "how that
vounir fellow could afford so expensive jew
elry, but I found out. The ring cost $18 and
he oaid S3 down, and is now paying twenry-
five cents a week. Only think of it! It will
take sixty weeks to pay for the ring." I
wonder if the gin Knows; uunaio .t.
HIGH SCHOOL .NOTES.
The schools are suffering somewhat
froniscailctina, but by curfully quaran
tining children from affected families,
it is thought there will be no serious re
sults. Miss Carrie Greusel and Miss Nettie
Balanco have been out for the pust week
ou account of sickness.
The building was vacated in short or
der Thursday by teachers who .vished to
attend the Collin;:-Jean wedding. I
noticed a few ef the teachers wen! out to
the Jean place after school to partake of
the refreshments, picMiinably.
There will be a teacher's meeting next
Friday anel the superintendent wishes the
teachers from the wards to be as piompt as
possible. These meetings re of special
interest to every teacher w ho wishes t
keep posteel on the various subjects of
teaching.
The days of foot-ball are past. "The
ball has a hole in it" is the reason given
by the boys. But I am tulel it is impos
sible to keep up th; fence along the
south siele when foot bill 1 is the rage.
The senior chemistry class has a new
laboratory. They now make gas, ex
plode bubbles, and perform many other
wonderful exberiments in the basement,
where they have neatly littcel up tables,
closets, et ca-tera, et c:etera.
All of the teachers dec-ply regret the
serious illness of Mr. Showaltcr, secreta
ry of the school board. Mr. Showalter
has been secretary for a long time and
has always been so pleasant anel gentle
manly in all his dealings with the teach
ers that he has their highest respect and
they with other of his friends hope soon
to see him again at his accustumed
place.
Many of the tcachei-3 were wondering
during the first part of the week what
was the matter with Prof. Drummond.
Usually one of the most pleasant of men,
but not a joKe would lie cracK or a
smile would he smole. It was not election,
it was not school that thus disturbed
his peace of mind ami ruilV-d his plat-id
countenance, he had lost hi $75 pointer
"dorg." We are glad to cronicle that
the dog has since returned and with it
the Professor's smiles and jokes.
