Sept. thousand employes under the war department were classified in the civil service Tuesday in accordance, with the sweeping- order of the president of May last, which extended the operations ot the law to practically all government em- ployes except those laborers whose work did not require nny s'teht amount of technical skill or intelligence above an ordinary degree. The delay male- ing the classification in the war department was due to the tremendous difficulty involved in including all those on the pay roll of the division, consisting of about persons employed in various capacities some of temporary nature on rivers, and harbors improvement at out of way points throughout the country. In many these plnces the worlc goes on in summer only nnd at others in winter only, but a provision hns been inserted in the rules to permit the lurlougliing witout pay of efficient men, M'ho can thus be recmployecl without examination when operations are re sumecl within year. The civil servinn commission has also perfret.ed arrangements whereby lists of elig'iblcs nr" available hereafter foi- all vacancif that may occur.

Prof. Langley, who recently demonstrated the fact that a steam-propelled flying machine can really fly.

says that his steam engine weighs about ten. pounds tb the horse-power. That is, 20 horse-power Langley engine weighs but 200 pounds. Hiram S. Maxim whittled down iron aud steel until he made a steam engine which weighs but 11 to 12 pounds to the horse-power, and a report comes from Australia that Hargrave, the aeronaut, has built a steam motor for a.

flying machine which weighs but pounds to the horse-power.

In fact, the jS cw- coinen engine, which was called' an. engine, was a low- pressure condensing engine.

The vetr cran pumping engine, which is rounding out its century and a Imlf, may rightfully claim to be the Adam of every locomotive, stationary engine, marine engine and steam pump in the world.

STEAM ENGINE 150 YEARS OLD. ever was secured from the antique structure. He estimated that the engine, working with steam at a pressure of a pounds to.the square inch, developed a little over 50-horse power, and that it weighed', all 11 This would give about 500 pounds of material to every horse-power. The cylinder of the engine is feet in diameter and the stroke is six feet. The cylinder is of iron, cast in one piece, and has a conical bottom, designed to exhaust the water-of condensation, Tho whole weighs ebout six tons.

The piston moves'a walking beam built up of heavy oak timbers, bolted together trussed with Iron rods, and the walking beam weighs about flvc.tons. On each side of the walking-beam Is a wooden section of a circle. On one section is the chain which car- les the piston rod and on the other axe the chains which carry the three pump 'rods, for the engine works three pumps, each lifting water from one level to another. In the bottom of the hnfrc cylinder are three valves. The first is circular and serves for the introduction of the Bteam.

The is a slide valve for injecting the water condenses the steam, and the third is'afl'np valve lor exhausting the water of condensation. The first two valves are moved by small walking beams connected by rods tuid chains to the main walking- bewn. The main walking beam is so balanced that the pressure of the live is just sufficient to make the piston-rod end lighter tlin.n the pump end, and the beam tilts down on the pump side, lifting the piston to the, the cylinder. At the proper pointnnd time the slide valve permits a jet of water to enter the cylinder, and the steam condenses instantly, making a Atmospheric pressure then causes the piston to descend, pulling down that end of the walking- beam and lifting the pump chains, so that work is actually done by atmospheric pressure, and not by steam. Formerly two "haystack" boilers fur-, nishcd steam to the engine, but DO years ago these ancient Bteum-makers were discarded and a boiler of more modern is used.

The engineer who Ess charge of the old engine told Mr. Donkin that his father and grandfather preceded him as engineers, so that the old engine.has had three generations of ons family to oil it up and paofc'its valves.
