1. At a central point a steam-engine drives pumps wiiich compress air to five atmospheres in a reservoir holding eight cubic metres. This compressed air is sent, by means of a special regulator, into a second receiver called tlie " distributing reservoir, " where the pressure is kept constant at seven-tenths of an atmosphere, or a little less — a pressure determined empiricall}^ to be sufficient to move the dials. The "dis- tributing reservoir " is opened to transmit an impulse into the pipes e...ach minute, for about twenty seconds, by a distributing clock (Fig. 4). This consists of two distinct movements. The one to the left, provided with balance-wheel, counter- weights, etc. , is simply an ordinary clock, ' and indicates the hour, minute, . And second, as shown in the figure. The movement to the right is contrived especially for moving the dis- tributing valve, R. This valve, ingeniously arranged in such a way that the pressure acts only on a minimum of its surface, is inclosed in a valve-box and has three orifices.
