The application of this joint for air-brake connections is also worthy of care-ful consideration. Any desired pressuremay be carried with absolute safety andreliability in air-brake service. For high-pressure connections to com-pressed air locomotives, motors, etc.,it has become a standard by the largestinanufacturers of such machinery, whichincludes the H. K. Porter Co., Pitts-burg, and American Locomotive Works. Scranton, Pa. The Moran joint is made with closebearings for conveying liquids or street car when a series of regular sparksflash between rail and wheel. It is acurious illusion and one which requireskeen observation to detect, though itdoes not detract from the general life-like effect produced by the shiftingscene. It would be worth while for anyone to indulge in a pleasant test of hispowers of observation by attending oneof the Ptoctor entertainments andclosely watching the Kalatechnoscopepictures. The Moran Flexible Joint. The question of flexible metallic con-nections for conveying steam, air orliquids is receiving considerable atten-tion. Pioneers in this line, are the MoranFlexible Steam Joint Co., Louisville. MORAN FLE-XIBLE JOINT.
