A A ET nA SS AO RE ESET E EVENING STAR. | Dummy Enoints on City Passss ze | Rat_ways—A letter from New York says: We I probably have “dammy” engines Tunping on all the city railroads before lone, in place of that roble animal, the horse. A dummy was placed on the Second avenue on Tursday atternoon, making the trip from the , @orner of For ty-third streetand Second avenue to Harlem and back again in a manner highty satisfactory to a large number of invited gursis. The advantage the dummy Is said tohaveover the horse is that it can do more work at one- half the expense—a® consideration which is , pretty sure eventually to overcome about the » only objection to it—that it is not soeasily col- trolled as the horse. One of the Pittsburg papers remarks: | The managers of the East Liberty Railway Company, Pittsbarg, have introduced a dum- my epgine upon their road, and for some days post has been testiag its capacity and adapta. bility. On Monday the directors of the road gave it a public trial, and were, we under- stand, perfectly satisfied with it. This is the first engine which hss been introduced upon our passeng‘r raijroade, and we hope, for ‘hi exke ofthe poor horses, that it will prove success. A NEw INVENTION Wanted —R. F. Ste- vers, ot New York, inthe Scientific Ameri>in, aludes to a want which mechanical ingenaity i. needed tosppply. He says: “If some one ef your nomerous readers will | produce a simple and convenient device for Tsising and lowering the fire-grate in our com- Mou cooking rang+s. he will confer a public favor, and finda r-adysale forit. Range fires &:e piaced some twelve to fifteen inches below the kettle hottoms, which at times is necessary for the purpose ot heating the ovens and water- tack. But it dai'y happens in the work of the kitcben that asharp heat is wanted atthe top | ofthe range, and, although a sufficiency of coals may be burning on the grate, the dis- lnnce down is too great to make it effective. A bew fire mnst be made,a bucket of coal used, and an hons's time required, which could be saved if the grate with its fire could be raised and lowered with pleasnre. The invention thonld be made applicable to any and all ranges already in use. One-half thé coi now | used in my range could be saved by the use of sa:chadevice. Who will produce it? OFFICIAL.
