PUT TO USE IN THE UNION PACIFIC SHOPS

lined for fllnny 1'urposos
lu the Grout Workshops at the
Overland System.
"Thay arc running the Union Pacific shops
on wind. " said one boiler maker to another
the other day , anil the remark was seemingly
BO out of keeping with the gen-
* ) cral broad-minded policy which ob
tains In the operation of the
shops at Omaha othat an Investigation was
determined upon , to ascertain If the criticism
of the boiler maker was well founded. The
result o'f a reporter's research In the causes
which led to the words Introducing this ar-
tlclo was startling , to say the least , for the
Union Pacific shops are run on wind , the
wind In this case being compressed air , and
no wonderful are the uses to which this new
force 1 ? being applied that It Is deemed
worthy of an extended review.
Very few people are aware of the many
uses compressed air Is being put to In this
country , and particularly as applied to nu
merous tools necessary In the construction of
locomotives and cars , the Union Pacific people
at this point making greater use of the forca
and having a moro complete compressed air
plant than any similar locomotive or car
building works In the United States , a fact
In which the employes take a large amount of
pride , as well as do the Deads of the sov
ral departments. _
About tour years ago a half dozen air
pumps , such as are applied to locomotives to
furnish air for the air brake , furnished com
pressed air 'lor the limited use of the Omaha
ehops. Nowi however , as the adaptability of
the force to modern Implements began sug
gesting Itself to the skilled workmen In the
bhops , It requires three largo special com
prcBsors to furnish the necessary air to run
the numerous machines driven by compressed
air , and within a very short time a fourth
compressor will have to ba aiUloJ.
The method Is very simple when you once
understand tho. principle upon which these
machines are Corked. The air IB ttrawn Into
the air cylinder and pumped Into a receiver
and compressed , seven atmospheres Into one ,
or a pressure of about 105 pounds per square
Inch. Pipes leading from the receivers sup
ply the power to operate the machines.
WORKED BY UNSECN POWEH.
The visitor to the car shops sees overhead
an Iron pipe , stretching from ono end o !
the shop to the other ; by following Us tor
tuous windings you soon ascertain why It Is
there. At Intervals a smaller pipe Is run
down toward the floor and to this Is at
tached the ordinary air brake hose coupling ,
familiar to all travelers on the railroad.
Now that the sightseer about the shops
lias commenced to learn that he doesn't
know It all by any means , and that already
lie has seen some strange machines acting
as If directed by some unseen power , ho
may coma upon two cast Iron cylinders
setting along the tracks In the yard and
resembling beer kegs as much as anything.
While ho stops to wonder at what the things
are for and tries to reach the gray matter
in bin head by scratching that Important
member along como two men , and vrtth
what looks like a freight house truck , and
apparently without handling the remlnlieenl
beer kegs , the truck picks up the machines
and you next see them uuder the sills of a
freight cnr. The hotc from a ctc.im plpo (3 (
coupled to the cylinders and beofro you can
broUio tit lee the car U raised two feet and
the truolc ready to bo run out from under
the car. Two noodrn trestle * or * placec
uniltr the sills ot the car , tb air Is releaccc
from the cylinder * and the car rests on the
trestles , And all thla Is done very much
eon r than it took the writer to tell It ,
nn4 all done with compressed air. No trouble ,
< io worry and no tmiahtd flng r ; done It
* , onfUU lh the Urn * u half
dozen men would take to do the same work
a half dozen years ago.
You turn , around and see a passenger
car being raised the same way. Superintend
ent Molloy's car being In process , of eleva
tion so that new wheels and Journals might
be put on the forward truck when the writer
visited the shops last week.
Dut your Investigations as to the uses of
compressed air have Just commenced.
You notice two men holding a small ma
chine against the new siding on a passengar
coach and wonder what new tangled thing
It Is anyhow. On examination you ascertain
that It IB a machine for nand-pap'ering the
surface of wood. A small hose Is attached
to It and closer Inspection shows that It Is
about as big 'round as a dinner plate and
about four Inches thick ; on ono side Is a
flat disc , about an eighth of an jnch In
diameter , to which Is aUlxed a sheet'ot sand
paper. The natural Inquiry Is , does It make
a smooth Job ? and In reply you.are pointed
to a coach Just finished and varnished and
so polished Is the surface that on putting
ycur face to the wood you are suprlsed to see
your eyes , the color of them being almost
as apparent as In a looking glass. Standing
next to this coach Is another that has been
finished In the old way of cross planing ,
then planed up and down , finished with a
steel scraper and finally rubbed down by
hand with a piece of sandpaper.
AS A CARPET CLEANEIl.
You go back to the machine and ask the
workman abcut Us operation. He tells you
the siding Is put on as It comes from the
wood-working machine. That after being
put on the car It Is not touched with a
plane or scraper , the little machine
mentioned above cutting down the surface
and making It perfectly true rnd level ,
leaving no marks whatever. What makes
U go ? You are shown the Inside and see
a rotary fan , nothing more , except a shaft
running through and fastened to the disc
holding the sandpaper. Turn on your com
pressed air and the machine runs 6,000 feVo-
lutlons per minute , and there you are.
Wonders will never cease , you think da
you come upon a man blowing dust out ot a
coach cushion , no pounding , no mental cuss
words over the hard work that Is part of a
cushion beater's life. Inspect the thing that
the workman holds In his hand and you
will find a flat nozzle near the cushion ,
which Is attached to a rubber hosf. and this
In turn to the Iron pipe running down the
side of the car shop. The moment the com
pressed air Is turned on the dust flows out
of the cushion like water. He turns the
cushion over and blows all the dust out
from the Inside among the springs. Then he
turns to you and goes up and down your
clothing whisking the Omaha dust from
overcoat and pantaloons , and done In a
tenth ot the time the old way made neces
sary. It cleans carpets Just the same way
and the carpet comes out from the force ot
compressed air looking as bright and fresh
as It just purchased from the carpet store.
The workman does not stop here. He car
ries his hose Into a passenger coach , the
windows are opened and then the dutt be
gins to roll out of the seat backs , the cur
tains of the windows are treated to a dose
ot compressed air , the nozzle Is held be
tween the windows along the woodwork and
when the workman Is done you have a brand
new looking car that before Us association
with compressed air looked as It It had been
traveling over the alkali wastes for years.
HERE THEY SELL WIND.
This feature ot cleaning cars by compressed
air has been In operation about three years
and a half at the shops here , and U now In
use In the shops at Council Dlutfs , Kansas
City , Denver , Cheyenne , Laramle , Salt Lake
and Pocatcllo. At Council Ilium the Pull
man company pays the Union Pacific 25 cents
per car for the use of air for each car.
Think ot selling wind for 25 cents per cart
Pipes are also to be seen throughout the
yards to which the hose Is attached for the
purpose of testing the air brakes on every
car and adjusting them before they are sent
out on the road.
There are about two miles of pipes In the
yardi for carrying air to the different build
ings. In the foundry the elevator that raises
the Iron and coke to the cupola Is driven by
air On your tour you notice a piece of eight-
Inch gas pipe hanging to a crane , and ask as
to It * use. A man comes along , fastens a
chain to * casting , a string Is pulled , and
the catting , weighing 4,600 pounds , Is lifted
up , easily and without any noise , six feet
from the ground , the crane U swung around
and the casting Is lowered to an cut of the
way place as easily and slowly as you desire.
In the machine shops the pneumatic lifts
are very much In evidence , every planer havIng - !
Ing ono or more to lift wheels , axles and
heavy castings , reducing to the minimum the
manual labor of the skilled mechanic. The
one over the large planer will lift 10,000
pounds , a child being able to manipulate the
string that governs the compressed air coup
ling.
ling.They
They have In constant use a small machine
running a drill , which cuts an Inch hole In
the frame of a locomotive rim , while an
other machine Is used to roll the flues , or
rather making them tight In the flue sheet ,
taking by means of this simple contrivance
some twenty or thirty seconds to set a flue.
Ask' any boiler maker' how long It took by
the old method of man , muscle and hammer.
Another of the new tangled Ideas which
the Union Pacific people are Introducing to
save labor Is attached to a rotary planer ,
which Is planing off the valve seat of a loco
motive , another Is attached to a boring bar
and Is boring out a locomotive cylinder , and
all run by compressed air.
Then , again , one sees a small engine , weigh
ing about 150 pounds , fastened to an Iron
cart. Ono man Is able to pull It about the
shop , and U can be used to run any single
machine , a lathe , planer , or drill , and all
driven by compressed air.
WIND INSTEAD OP STEAM.
It has always been customary before put
ting the pistons In the cylinders of a loco
motive coming out of the shop to flro the
engine In order to blow steam through the
cylinder passages , thereby blowing out the
dirt , chips or anything that might have
fallen Into the steam ports. After blowing
out the ports , pistons were put In and the
engine was ready to run out of the shop.
All this Is entirely done away with In these
closing century days. The boiler under the
new conditions Is filled with air at 100
pounds pressure , and the ports blown out
with air Instead of steam. After the engine
II completed the1 boiler Is a aln filled with
air and th § engine1 run but of the iriachlna
6110 Intd thd rolillu Mouse.
Over each driving wheel lathe Is an air
lift , which will raise a pair of driving wheels
weighing 7,200 pounds from the floor. An
other attachment pulls them Into the lathe or
pushes them out.
In the tin shop Is a press operated by air
which punches out and stamps tin or galvan
ized Iron Into various shapes.
The boiler shop , too , la splendidly equipped
for the use of air. All the stay bolt holes In
the boilers are topped out with a machine
driven by air , and the same machine , screws
them In. Another machine driven by air cuts
them off , while still another calks the seams
along tfle boiler In Infinity less time than
under the old order of doing things.
Outside the boiler shop Is a punch driven by
air , which will punch a one-Inch hole through
steel three-quarters of an Inch thick.
In the onico alf the letters are copied on a
press operated by compressed air , while the
transfer table Is run by a small englno driven
by air.
And yet the application ot air to machinery
tools Is regarded as being In Us swaddling
clothes.
Truly the Union Pacific Ehops ore run on
wind. The boiler maker was right.

Max Freeman , who pleaded guilty to the
charge of stealing two cloaks from H ,
Shultz , was sentenced to a term of five years
yesterday.
The prisoner , In offering a plea for a
light sentence , referred to his mother. "Oh.
'
jes , " replied the Judge. "I know all about
this mother business. It Is very pressing
at times like this. Strange that men wir
commit crimes , and then when the doon

all of a sudden the 'thought of home
and wife and mother comes In and Is used
to Influence the courts and judges and Juries ,
for leniency.
"The sentence of the court Is that you bo
confined at hard labor In the penitentiary for
three years on the first charge and two
years on the second , and I don't think you
will rob your employer again. "
As the sentence was pronounced Free
man fell In a dead faint and was caught by
one ot the bailiffs and removed to the pris
oner's bench. He was almost in convul
sions , and the Judge ordered him removeO
to the jail. As two of the sheriff's depu
ties were escorting Freeman from the room
Judge Bcott said : "The way of the trans-

VILLAGE OF DUNDEE.
Western Suburbs to llo Incorporated
County ComiiilHiloiiRrs' Moetlne.
At a me'etlng of the county commissioners
yesterday afternoon the petition of J. N. H.
Patrick and fifty-eight others , residents of
Dundee Place and Carthage , asking for the
Incorporation cf those suburbs as a village
to be called Dundee Place , was granted.
The limits of the new village are defined as
follows : Commencing at Dodge street and
running thence to Forty-eighth street , then
north to the county road , then west to
Nevada street , then south ti Undcrwcod
avenue , then west to IJerlln street , then
south to the county road. D. L. Johnson ,
W. L. Selby , J. IJ. Carmlchael. U. n. Hume
and J. N , H. Patrick were nppolntoJ trusties
to servo until the election of successors as
provided by law.
Ruth Wright Ernest , the baby left with
the county and adopted by S. J. Ernest ,
came up for another discussion. Ernest
a&ked the board to compensate him for legal
expenses In his eftort to retain possession of
the child and thought that $198 would about
cover It. The committee on charities rec
ommended that he be paid $75 , and after cn-
slderable discussion the claim of $75 was
allowed and the balance held In suspen
sion.
sion.The
The committee on charities reported ad
versely on the petition of a number of
Omaha physicians pf the homeopathic per
suasion for assistance In establishing fro ?
dlsponslarles. The c mmlttco declined to
establish a precedent , Inasmuch as a number
Of free' dispensaries were already in opera
tion without "expense to either patient or
county.
County Clerk Sackett reported to the
board itlmt he had carefully looked Into
the management of the county coal yard ,
operated fcr the purpose of dispensing coal
on account of charity , and that he found ths
Showing ; a very satisfactory one. During the
moitlh 'of November the yard dispensed
237 tons cf boal at a cost of $705. The cost
dt Q al.delivered amounted to $2.97 per ton.
Dan McCormlck has petitioned the county
Commissioners , asking them to devise ways
and means by which he can get out ot jail.
He Was sent to the county jail on March 10
last because he was unable to pay Lizzie
Newlands $10 per month for the support of
an Infant cf which to was convicted of being
th ; father. Ho claims that unless the biard
comes to his relief he will be compelled to lie
In jail the rest of his natural life. The board
placed his communication on file.

CO-OPERATIVE HOME BUILDING.
Program of tlio Convention of the btato
I , .iiiio of Mutual Anftnrlittliins.
The third annual meeting of the Nebraska
State League of.Local Loan and Building Asso
ciations will be. ( held at the Lincoln hotel ,
Lincoln , on Tuesday , December 11 , at 2
p. m.
Hon. Eugene Moore , auditor of public ac
counts , In his biennial report to the governor
says : "I wUh to especially emphasize the
necessity of a vigorous law regarding bond
Investment companies. Nebraska has been
flooded with clruclars and representations of
so-called bond Investment companies offering
alluring inducements to Investors. The bankIng -
Ing board has exerted all possible effort to
rid the state of these swindlers , by resolu
tion and otherwise , and a stringent law on
this subject will be of great good to all. "
And again : "Our laws governing building
and loan associations should bo made more
specific and less cumbersome the better to
enable their correct Interpretation and
thereby enhance their usefulness. "
Mr. Moore has been Invited to address the
mooting on the amendments to our law , and
It It Is Impossible for him to do so doubtless
some representative from the banking de
partment will do so in Its behalf.
In addition to the routine business of the
maetlng addresses will bo dell\ered as fol
lows :

It Is earnestly hoped that as many of the
local building associations as practicable will
send delegates to this meeting whether mem

Importance will doubtless came before the
meeting that all the associations In the etata
will be affected by the results.

rW/ AMcGur | < ? . a well known citizen ot
McKay , Ohio. Is cf the opinion that there
Is nothing as good for children troubled with
colds or croup ns Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. He 1ms used It In his family for sov-
cral years with the best results nnd always
keeps a bottle of It In the house. After hav
ing la grippe ho was himself troubled with
a severe cough. I ! used other remedies
without benefit and then concluded to try
the children's medicine , and tp his delight It
soon effected a permanent cure.
