He died comparatively young, only four months over sixty-seven, but be van still a youth when Ills career be gan. The air bnke, with which bin Dauie will alwayi be associated, was In successful use when he was only twenty-two. It is said of that Inven tion that It has Buved more lives than centurhm of warfare have destroyed. It has made possible the development of railroad trulllc as It Is known today the trains of great length, high sliced, large capacity und Increasing frequen cy, For this Invention Mr. Westing bouse received great reward and world wide recognition. Turned to Electricity. lie made many other contributions to Industrial progress.

Klfty thousand employees and $L00.0(X).000 of capital were needw! In the many or ganizations which he founded lu Amer ica and K u rope. Ills genius was never shown In brighter light than when he took up some task which other men described as impossible. He. must have heard frequently that the uir spring for mo tor vehicles was Impossible. Hut be made H successful. The world told him that the geared turbine for driv ing ships' propellers and especially his application of It could never suc ceed. Hut tie mude It succeed, and just before his fatal Illness he learn ed that two new battleships are to be fitted with these Inventions. Arthur Warren, a close friend of the Inventor. sayB: "He thought in flashes, and his ac tion seemed almost as quick as his thought He could and did outwork many men. Every day but Sunday was a working day." Celebrated Vnnderbilt Story. A good many stories about George Westlnghouse have been printed. One of the most popular stories is one of the most Interesting, hut It Is not true the "celebrated Interview with Vnn derbllt, the railroad king." Accord I rig to this amusing anecdote. Westing house called upon Vanderbllt and ex plained how trains could be stopped with air, but the railroad king dismiss ed blin with the remark: "Go away, young man! t haven't time to talk with fools!" The story has gone around the world many times. Mr. Westlnghouse often said that It hadn't the merit of possess ing n grafu of truth. Iils denials never caught tip with the yarn. o M YKTliK CHUNK K VENTS. Win.
