One day he arrived in Pittsburg sell
ing his other invention and talking
about his brake notion to a man con
nected with a railroad out there
Thats a great idea of yours said
the man We will try it on our line
So the officials of this railroad per
mitted Westinghouse to put his new
kickshaw on one of their trains
But he had to agree to Indemnify the
road for any damage that might be
caused to the train as the result of the
trials The train was equipped On
the designated day the confident In
ventor and a group of skeptical rail
way men boarded the train on which
the first air brakes were fixed Off
went the train on its trial trip The en
gineer put on full speed and just as
lie had rounded a curve he saw ahead
at a grade crossing and in the middle
of the track a loaded wagon a man
and a boy and a balky horse The en
gineer moved his little lever and the
first train that was ever stopped by
air pulled up at a standstill several
feet short of the obstruction
Thus on its first trial the Westing
house air brake saved life and prevent
ed damage to property Thenceforward
talking was unnecessary all that had
to be done was to make brakes The
inventor thought of that clause secur
ing compensation to the railroad for
any damage he might do to the train
and he laughed His fortune dated
from that day He was then only

BUSINESS LAWS
It is a fraud to conceal a fraud

An agreement without consideration
is void

Had Xo Time to Vote
President Zachary Taylor in 1810
when only twenty two years of age
was appointed to a lieutenancy in the
regular army He served in the army
up to or near the time of his nomina
tion for the presidency in 1848 After
he had carried off the prize friends of
Henry Clay and others who wanted the
nomination sneeringly spoke of Taylor
as an ignorant frontier colonel who
had not voted for forty years It is
probable he had not voted as he had
been away from home in the military
service most of the time and came into
prominence only through his brilliant
military record in the Mexican war

For Alcohol
Denoitorized
UITE an In
dustrial revo
lution is lia
ble to come about
it is said in case
of the enactment
into law of the bill
taking the Internal
revenue tax off
denaturized alco
hol as advocated
by President Roose
velt in his recent
special message to
congress Should it
be placed 01 the statute books it would
result in bringing into the market a
product which would be In great de
mand for heating lighting and power
purposes and for use in the arts so say
those who advocate the passage of the
measure now in congress Among the
prominent supporters of such a law are
Nahum J Baehelder head of the na
tional grange representing some 800
000 farmers Turner Wilson secretary
of agriculture an VoCesso Harvey
W Wiley diief o he governments
bureau of chemistry Because of the
fact that the denaturized alcohol would
be available for generating power for
many mechanical purposes the bill in
terests the automobilists the owners
of motor boats the manufacturers and
users of farm machinery and those en
gaged in many branches of industry
Even the piano dealers of the country
are Interested and in their national
convention a few days ago passed reso
lutions Indorsing the proposed law It
has been strongly opposed by the
Standard Oil company for the obvious
reason that a wide use of denaturized
alcohol would lessen the demand for
its products It is also opposed by the
manufacturers of wood alcohol
Commercial alcohol if it could be
obtained at a sufficiently low price
would supplant to some extent at
least both petroleum and gasoline
The supply of gasoline is on the de
crease while its price has been going
up Only a- short time ago 70 to 72

degrees test gasoline was advanced
half a cent a gallon while all other
high grades were put up a cent per
gallon The present internal revenue
tax on denaturized alcohol is so large
as to make its use for commercial pur
poses impractical In England Ger
many and some other European coun
tries there is no tax on denaturized
alcohol and there it is largely used In
the arts and in manufactures and also
as fuel and for motive power Com
mercial alcohol known as wood alco
hol or methyl alcohol has long been ob
tained by the dry distillation of wood
but there are many purposes for which
it cannot be used and for which the de
naturized alcohol obtained from grain
or vegetablos would be available The
products expected to furnish the chief
supply of this article in case of the
removal of the tax are corn potatoes
sugar beets and other vegetables con
taining a great deal of starch Accord
ing to the estimates of the secretary of
agriculture potatoes and corn will
be largely grown for the production of
alcohol as well as for food if the tax Is
removid The alcohol in that case
would be made undrinkable by the ad
dition of wood alcohol and pyridine
Dr Wiley whose chemical experi
ments have done much to develop sen
timent in favor of pure food laws has
shown that cornstalks may be util
ized for commercial alcohol the same
kind of press being used to extract the
fermentable material as for sugar cane
Mr Wilson estimates that with the
grinding up of the stalk as well as the
grain corn can be made to produce 230
gallons of alcohol to the acre This
would mean a vast increase in the de
mand for this product and a corre
sponding benefit to the farmer The
corn crop of the country is already
enormous and on the plains of the
west it is stacked up almost mountain
high at certain seasons but its growth
would be stimulated still more by the
opening up of such a market as the re
moval of the tax would create It Is
estimated that the ordinary white po
tato will produce as much as 255 gal
lons of alcohol per acre From sugar
beets about 224 gallons of alcohol per
acre may be obtained The use of alco
hol for fuel and power Is not so dan
gerous as that of oil and gasoline and
It is thus especially adapted for farm
purposes

Come people think for Instance that
political speeches do not matter Po
litical speeches Matter far more than
the acts f par lament which they in
troduce Men oare less even about
what is beir done than about why it
Is being done The spirit in whKi a
thing is effected is of far more pnuti
cal importance even than the thin- it
self This can be tested by the piinVo
experiment in social life of n iovg a
gentlemans hat for him first in or
spirit then in the ot er If you got rid
of all the talk about practical politics
talked by tired men with 10000 a
year and really look impartially at te
history of human society you will sen
that collisions have arisen far more
from insults than from Injuries Some
of my imperialist friends for instance
tell me that because I think South Afri
ca a nuisance to England therefore I
should permit Germany to pluck it
from us In war This is like saving
that because I think a top hat ugly and
uncomfortable I should let another man
knock it off in Piccadilly No doubt if
is uncomfortable But why should he
knock it off Who is he I wonder

Portuguese money is based on a unit

presented with a bill some of us got

in mingled Spanish Portuguese French
and English did we learn that a pho

Hospitality
While the reportorial representative
of a great news bureau was in San
Antonio Tex whence he had posted
in such haste as to have little luggage
he met with a charming bit of southern
hospitality He had no cuffs and a
local reporter promptly drew off his
own and said to the guest within the
city gates Tlere take mine Ive
more at home Later it was learned
that the donor of the cuffs worked for
the San Antonio Daily Express and
the superintendent of the news bureau
upon hearing of the incident immedi
ately wrote to Frank Grice owner of
the Express In appreciation of an act
peculiarly southern in its frank good
fellowship Here is Mr Grices reply
If you can send me the name of the
member of the Express staff who of
fered his cuffs to your man he will be
