There are two ways in which an electric railway can be worked. We may either utilize the ordinary rolling stock, and re- place the steam locomotive by an electric locomotive, or we may provide each pas- senger coach aud each goods wagon with its own small electromotor, so that each vehi- cle becomes its own locomotive. In the latter case, the power is applied to each axle in the train, and the whole of its weight is utilized in producing adhesion. Of the difficulties connected with the con- veyance of current to the train, aud of those which at present stand in the way of an economical and certain method of regulat- ing the speed, we shall speak presently. But, supposing that these difficulties can be overcome, it will be admitted that electric traction, especially when carried out on the latter plan, has many advantages over steam traction. By making every wheel in the train a driver, the acceleration at which the train can start is greatly increased.

Electric Railways,

The proposal to use electricity as a source of energy for working railways is very old. With whom it first originated will perhaps never be known, but is is probable that Professor Henry's " electric engine," which was invented in 1833, and especially Jaco- bi's famous experiment in 1839, which showed to the world that electricity could be used to propel a boat, directed public at- tention for the first time to the question of electric locomotion. This seems the more likely, as the first patent for an " electric railway " dates from 1810, and was granted

by the United States Government to Henry motive power could be transmitted over a aud sensation would be less, because no Pinkus, who seems, however, not to have considerable distance.

The usual method of indicating this splice

is to paint it white, or some color, so that the eye can readily catch the place; then, of course, an examination will show where the rope ends are tucked under.

Moses, electric engineer, and D* J. Miller, on Saturday, Nov. 6th, 1886. They were very much interested in the working of the road. Cars were stopped, started and moved at various speeds for their special benefit. After the ride they inspected the machinery at the depot at One Hundred and Twenty-eighth street, and expressed them- selves as well pleased. At the meeting of the street railway com- pany held last evening, Mr. Orange J. Chapman, who has been Superintendent of the company since its organization, tender- ed his resignation, to take effect immedi- ately, aud Mr. Peter Donavan, the stable foreman, also resigned. Mr. Chapman has been the right man in the right place; he is a thorough superintendent, aud has been faithful to his trust, which is one of great re- sponsibility. During his term of office he has been ever zealous and watchful to the interest of the company, and that organi- zation owes the present excellent condition of its property to Mr. Chapman. In accept- ing his resignation it loses a good superin- tendent, and one whose place will be hard to fill. Mr. Fred Bloomer, who has had charge of the Muscatine Lumber Co.'s yards, has been elected foreman, and Mr. Chapman continues with the company until December 1, to assist Mr. Bloomer in ob- taining the "run of things."

SOME INFORMATION OF VALUE To Druggist and Public in regard to COMBAULT'S CAUSTIC BALSAM, The Great French Veterinary Remedy

Office of Lawrence, Williams & Co., Sole Importers and Proprk-tors for the U. S. and V Canadas. Cleveland, Ohio. ) As we have, at very great expense, intro- duced the genuine GOMBAULT'S CAUSTIC BALSAM in this country, and its great value

is being appreciated wherever it is known, and

being anxious to protect its reputation, and also dealers and the public from being imposed upon with any imitation of the genuine article, we have procured from Mb. Gombault, who is the sole proprietor and only living manufacturer of the genuine GOMBAULT'S CAUSTIC BAL- I'KEPAKED BY SAM in the world, a certificate, of which the J. E. GOMBAULT, Ex Veterinary Surgeon to the French Gov't Studs. following is a true and exact copy, and all who A speedy and reliable cure/or all Lameness and very many diseases and ailments of Burses, Cattle are interested should not fail to read it carefully: and other Animals. Supersedes all Blister and actual Cautery and leavesno scar or blemish. Nogent-stjr-Marne; "i A Pamphlet with full directions should accom- ECG. GOMBAULT Near Paris, France, V pany every bottle. Negotlant Feb. 28, 1884. J Nane genuine without the siqnatureof a NOGENT Sur Marne (Seine). LAWRENCE, WILLIAMS & CO., Sole Importers

On the original of the foregoing, which we hold, the Mayor of Nogent-sur-Marne certifies to the individuality of Mr. Eug. Gombault, and to his signature, with his official signature and seal. It is also certified to by the Prefect of Department of Seine, Minister of Foreign Affairs of France, and the whole bears the certificate and seal of the United States Consul-General of Paris. We certify above to be correct. M. J. LAWRENCE & M. E. WILLIAMS. STATE OF OHIO, Cuyahoga County, ss. Cleveland, Ohio, April 25th, 1884. Personally appeared before me, M. J. Lawrence and M. E. Williams, of the firm of Law- rence, Williams & Co., and to me personally known, and after being duly sworn, stated that the foregoing was a true and exact translation of the original document as set forth, and a! the statements made therein are true and correct. Before me a Notary Public in and for tin.. County of Cuyahoga, this 29th day of April, 1884. C. L. RICHMOND, Notary Public. [SEAL.] We think this will be sufficient evidence to convince all that the goods we are introducing are the only genuine Gombault's Caustic Balsam goods in this country, and hope this may prevent all dealers and consumers from being imposed upon with any imitations of this very valuable veterinary remedy. We would further caution all parties from being deceived by any French labels or wrappings, as these can be as easily printed in this country as in France, and this is a well-known trick for counterfeiting many French preparations in this country, and should be accepted as no evidence of genuineness. Price $1.50. Sold by Druggists, or sent by us by express, charges paid, on receipt of price. Descriptive Circulars, with testimonials, sent to all applicants.

Simplicity of Construction, Quickness and Convenience of Cleaning, Securi- ty of Money Drawee, Beauty of Finish, and Much Cheaper in Price.

We have just added to this box a very valuable Improvement, viz., a small mirror placed back of first slide or rest, which presents to driver's view the back side of fare as well as front, when resting on first rest. He can by this quickly detect any :-purious or mutilated coin or ticket that may be split and put in box. It often happens In all Fare Boxes, to the annoyance of driver and passenger, when several fares are resting on first slide, one or more coins are liable to be behind a ticket, and the driver cannot see them, and quite often a passenger is "rtuia up," when his fare is concealed behind the ticket, from the
