Poeumatic - Transit Obstructed by = Brass Letter-Carrier. In shooting the mail through the under- # Houser. Salinas T B Eousseau, Chicazo G Hildebrand, Chicago Miss Smith, Selma C Heonry, St Paul ground pneumatic tube between the Post- | office and the Bourse a couple of days ago a prass carrier full of letters stuck fast midway on its route. One or iwo others piled up against it and formed an obstruc- tion which could not be dislodged by any air current forced in. The taoe was ren- dered temporarily useless by the accident and is still so, for the carriers have not yet been removed. Owing to the inaccessibility of the long metal tube under the streets the task of finding the troublesome carriers is no easy one. It is believed, however, that by using an ingenious French device, es- pecially adapted for this emerzency by Engineer Archur Falkepan of this city, tue difficuity may be speedily overcome and a path cleared for resum ption of pneu- matic mail transit. The object is to locate the obstruction exactly, and then, by dig- ging from above, it can be taken out by cutting the tube. The device was put in operation at the Bonrse end of the system yesterday, and there is every indication that the result will be satistactory. It consisted ol firing a pistol into the end of the tube and ac- curately recording the time that elapsed until the echo of the shot came back. ‘The sound traveled along the tube at its known rate of 1100 feet a second, and, meeting the obstraction, was echoed back to the orifice in just 291 second after the first report. From thisit was calculated that the sound went about 3200 feet, or 1600 feet each way. The latter distance was decided upon as that between the ob- struction and the station at the Bourse. This fixed it at a point along the line be- tween Sixth and Seventh streets, where the workmen are directed to dig. The time consumed by the sound. in its jour- ney through the tube was measured by ihe vibrations of a rubber diaphgram, elec- trically connected with a chrorograph.— Pailadelphia Record ————— _Only about two minutes are required for the biood to course through ths heart, thence to the lungs, back to the heart, and then through the entire body, and re- turn to the heart.
