Odell stopped forward and turned the throttle wheel when without croak or jar the ponderous en gine moved with grace and ap parent eonciousness of its im mense power. The expression of pleasure and admiration was on everv face and a laudable pride waspa inly depicted on the machi nip's whose mechanical culture enabled them to com mand the movements of this giant as their will-power gives dpxtrous movement to the hand. The driving wheel to this en gine is unlike many in that it has eight grooves and carries as many two-inch ropes instead of a single belt.
