Asked if he been drinking Grady said, “I have| one or two drinks a ‘day and some | days none.” Judge Meskill imposed a fine of $10 and costs for injury to personal property. | Stark Makes Arrest. In telling of the action Constable Stark said he was passing the machine just when Grady pulled a stone from his pocket and threw it through the | windshield. “I went after him,” said the constable, “and although he of- fered a little resistance I brought him | He admitted doing the deed but that him fan- tor and wanted to get square.” Thought Car a Fire Cracker?

Andrew Smithe, who was arrested at 10:30 o'clock last night by Officer Hantord Dart was evidently paralyzed drunk for the policeman says that when he found him sleeping near the bandstand he rubbed his ears, but the drowsey man made no response. He then pulled him to his feet but his legs would not hold him up and he slept on, said the officer. The ac- | cused admitted being drunk. As this was Smithe's first offense Judge Meskill gave him chance and after advising him to take the pledge and behave himself he ordered his discharge. Placed on Probation. Joseph Murtha, who was arrested yesterday by Officer King at the cor- ner of Church and Main streets, pleaded guilty to drunkenness and was fined $3 and placed on probation. Andrews’ Case Tomorrow. The case against Starr Andrews will come up in court tomorrow morn- ing. He is charged with violating his probation. Attorney Noble E.

Most people know | that the celebrated inventor was| throughout that half so | greedy for work that somebody said “he has put a brake on every train but he cannot put a brake on him- self;” but the air brake does not fig- ure in the common thought as the basis of any of these' later trlumphs.; it is looked upon rather as having | sprung from his brain, perfect and | complete. | To those of us who had the rare | fortune in any part of that period to be his colleagues or contemporaries | in the manufacture and use of rail- | way appliances this seems a gro- | tesque and romantic notion: for the | introduction of the air brake was| only in its birth. Tt has had a. strenuous infancy, an eventful youth and a recent past of wonderful de- velopment. Maturity it cannot reach until transportation by rail ceases to | progress.

The best air brake of that day, working to th ! top of its strength, could not stop tha train in less than 1.000 feet. | A train in 1914, weighing 920 tons | and going sixty miles an hour, had an energy of 111,000 foot tons, almost four times as much as what had te be dissipated in stopping the train in 1890. With the 1890 brake the 1914 train could have stopped in perhaps 1,760 feet.

It is not so much that the 1914 brake is bigger, as that it is different; and the laboratory has toiled through forty- five vears to produce this doubling of the air brake's efficiency.
