The exhaust stand here shown is the in-vention of John Y. Smith, of , the inventor of the exhausting deviceused on vacuum brakes, and it works onthe same principle. The stand can be used in short or ex-tension fronts, and takes the place of thepresent nozzle stand and the petticoatpipe. The passages marked S are exhauststeam passages, and it will be seen chatthere are three of ihem. Near the bottomof stand there is an opening through fromfront to back, and in its center a small ex-haust nozzle, I inch in diameter ; the blastof this nozzle draws in the hot gases fromthe front end, and, mingled with the steam,they are discharged through the centralpipe .4. As the gases in front ends are sev-eral hundred degrees hotter than the ex-haust steam, they will superheat the ex-haust, make it drier and hotter, and thusproduce velocity. The outside circle is also a steam nozzle,9 inches outside diameter, and having anopening of 5a inch, or an area of
