Chairman Wood of the committee on via ducts , streats and alloys of the city council , bus advertised for bids on two important public improvements. Both are paving * , and will cost $ ,009.

Also the alley from N to O streets , between Twenty- sixlli street and Railroad avenue , ana U street from tbo alley west to too avenuo. Both contracts will bo awarded Monday evening , October , ! ii , und it is the intention lo have the work pushed and the ; pavement , down before winter bns come to stay. Chairman Wood will advertmo far bids la a few days for tbo piving of TJ street from Twenty-fourth to Twonty-sovoath streets , with vilriilcd brick on u sand base. Graders are now at work lowering the grade on that street. To bring the street to grade will re quire considerable of a cut from Twonty- Iourtli street west to Twenty-seventh. At the Twenty-fifth street intersection a cut , of six feet is necessary to bring llio street to grudo nt thut point. The paving of L street and the alleys will probably complete the Imnrovomonts In tuis line this year.

The great si/.o of Iho oncino can bo niclurcti from thu folUnvinc Uosci'iption : Total weight of the machine alone ia M5,00n pounds , or sovonty-two and ono- Itivlf tuns. When complete with thu ton- dur and ready for Bervico , combined woighl ot all is 1124,1100 pounds , or lit ! ton . Th'iro htis never boon a loconio * tlvo constructed on four drivers which is us huiivy as this one , thuro boiny 15.000 pounds over each pair of drivers. The driving wheels are thb-largest ever built for locomotives in this coun try and are 7 foot , or 84 Inches , in diiun- cler. The boiler pressure ia 200 pounds and the compound principle is of the two-cylindor type. The liOO-pound pros- sti'-o has ulreudy been maintained with surprising ease on the tritila. ltlmi'4t l.ouniniitlvo Cylinder on Kecnril. The cylinders are respectively 1J ! ) and 31 inches in diameter and the high pressure cylinder being of cou so tlio situtllor , and the low pressure of the biggest locomotive cylinder over con structed. The pistons of both cylinders have a 28-inch stroke and ; imong the many advantages possessed by tlio' en gine is ono enabling the engineer to start the train with stoain from the low- pressure cylinder. The high pressure cylinder is on the loft side of the ma chine nii'l steam generated passes through it , exhausts into the low pres sure cylinder nnd is then blown oil. The boiler is 5 fcot in diameter and 27 fcot long. The ilro-box is as largo in proportion , being 0 feet long and 40 inches wide , inside grate measurement. Tlio height to the top of the cab is 14 feet : to the top of the stuck , 15 foot ; the distance from the bottom of the boiler to the r.iil is 0 } foot , so that a m.in ever six feet tall could walk under the boiler. In the construction of locomotives the slide valves are usually placed bu top of the cylinder. In this engine they are between them , and are piston valves 12 } inches in diameter. The forward wheels are 42 inches in diameter , and iu'o steel tire'd , with wrought iron centers. The locomotive is such a striking ma chine in so many ways that it is dillicult to tell wherein lies the most interesting point. The running board is 'of wrought iron , is the same height on tlio engine that it is on the tender , is built in a most peculiar fashion , and'in the front begins below the cylinders , forming an apron in front of them. This point is expected to accomplish line results by protecting the cylinders , rods and crossheads from the cold winds and the resistance offered by rushing through the atmosphere 'at high speed , and preserve tlio power ol the steam for a longer time than it could bo when tlio cylinder heads were exposed to the air. Tlio locomotive has a pressed steel front in place of the usual cttstiron front , which Is strength ened by ono central support. Another feature is the placing of the injector pipe and the bund rail on ono bntcuot. Tlio new application of Iho brakes is another departure from the uniform style. The brake cylinder Is under the cib : and at the back of it , while the brakes are suspended in front of ouch oi the four driving wheels. In the region of the piston valvas there is another de parture. The whole crosshend , instead of being supported by an upper and lower bar , hangs from an uppot guide , This saves space nnd gives the rods freer action. Another udviuitnat of the brontt run ning board is Unit it makes a wide way for the engineer or liremuu logo mount the engine- while running , if necessary. The sanding arrangement is- worked with compressed air by covered valves , The cvllndor cocks are also worked b\ compressed air , and the engineer hut full power to start his train by a slmpk twist of his wrist instead of taking r long , hard pull at the lever. This , Idot is entirely now. There is another great advantage The engine trucks have a sllding-sldc motion of one and ono-httlf Inches , in well as a central motion , and. whili under high speed , can gostraigh around a curve while tho-whcojs , an conforming to the irr.ogularity , power ful springs bringing the oiigi ire "into tin direct lines as soon as straight road i a. roachod. Tills will , itis estimated save a tremendous amount of wc r < un < tear on the m ichlnory and enable tin onglno to round curves at 10 speed , reducing the danger- such performance to a minimum , ih 3lr People iii Chicago desiring to tall r ever tlio telephone with people In 3lI I to BOYD'S ' Monday aud Tuesday , pel. 24 i CLA.RA MORRIS Monday Night HV as in.
