It would open up all.of western Morocco, Sonegal, Gambia and Guifrea, and would. re duce the time by about half to South Africa, the Kongo and Liberia. A FOOL WHO MADE MORE THAN GOOD Westinghouse Airbrake In- Seuer Celebrates Birth- Ye George Weetinghiotse, who invent- ed the airbrake now in use on prac- tically every railfoad of the world, and who founded a hundred million dollar corporation, with immense plants, for the monufacture-of this and other inventions, in Pemnsyl- vaniay Canada, England, Franee, Russia, Austria and Italy, was born in the village of Central Bridge, Schoharie county, N. ., sixty-six years ago. Poor and obscure when he first. sought to bring his epochal invention to the attention of; rail- way: presidents, he was branded asa visonary and a crank. Westinghouse was about thirty years old when he completed an automatic brake that would work to his satisfaction. Seeking an oppor tunity to display his invention, he wrote a letter to Commodore Van- president of the New York Central railway, asking for an inter- fow preposterous, chortled Vai when he read the letter, to think that a heavy train of cars could be stopped by wind. Haw- haw. In three days all. business men, and even railroad officials, hail learned that it pays to reply cour- teously to every commynication. At that time, tha pablic be damned Theory was int WOgue, and Commo- At the top of Westing- letter he scribbled these ponent. house's words: T have fools. * Mr. Westinghouse was naturally incensed, but not discoursged. He took .his scheme to President Cas- satt, of the Pennsylvania, and that gentleman received him courteously, and, after satisfying himself of the merit of the invention, advanced Westinghouse the money to carry on his experiments. A trial was given the Westinghouse appliance, and it immediately proved its superiority to, the kand-brakes then is use. Soon after the Midland railwa; land, gave a complete no time to waste on to all rakes on the market, and Westing- house again scored, with the result that his invention was soon adopted on all English railways. About this time, with competing Hines adopting the new-safety ap pliance, Commodore Wanderbiit. be- gan to grow mterested. The) theory. that trains could be stopped . by wind, however laughable, was work- ing well in practice, and the New York Central could not afford to lag behind the procession. The haughty Commodore wrote a curt note com- manding the inventor to appear in his presence at 2 certain date. The reply of Westinghouse was also violation of the principles of mod- ern. business, which forgives all in: but Thave mo time to waste on fools. (Signed) Westinghouso.
