NIAGARA'S NEW BRIDGE.
It Will Be One of the Wonders of the
World.
The new metal arch bridge at Niagara
falls will be noteworthy in two respects.
The new bridge is to be built over the
old suspension structure, without interruption
to the traffic on the latter. The
span from end pier to end pier will be
840 feet, making it the largest arch
'span in the world.
The suspension bridgo now in use,
4 which has been familiar to all visitors
to
to the great natural wonder for 40 years,
will be kept in place until the new arch
is ready, as it would be impossible to
construct false works over the Niagara
gorge to sustain a structure of this class.
The span will have a rise of 150 feet
from the level of the piers at'the skewbacks
to the center of the ribs at the
crane of the arch, which point is 170
feet above low water. The depth cf the
trusses is 26 feet, and they will be 68.7
inches apart. The bridge will carry^>ne
floor, 46 feet wide, divided longitudinally
fnto three parts. On the middle
portion, which is 22 feet 9 inches wide,
will be two trolley tracks. Each side of
these tracks will be a roadway for carriages
8 feet wide, and outside of these,
raised 6 inches from the level of the
roadway, will be footpaths.*
The construction of this remarkable
span is from plans of L. L. Buck, engineer
of the new East river bridge between
New York and Brooklyn, and the
author of the plans by which the railroad
suspension bridge at Niagara was
replaced by an arched bridge.
The approaching or flanking spans
will be 190 feet long on the American
side and 210 feet on the Canadian side.
The total metal in the new structure
will be about 4,000,000,000 pounds.
Every confidence is expressed in Mr.
Buck's ability to carry out his plans.
The replacing of the railroad bridge by
another without an hour's interruption
of .business was cne of the engineering
feats of the decade.
Those who have cot not seen the great
structure at Niagara which it is intended
to replace will hardly realize the stupendous
character of the ttedertakiDg.
Imagine the task of replacing the simplest
sort of bridge without interrupting
traffic, and then add about 1,000 per
cent to the difficulty. This will give
something of an idea of what confronts
engineers and builders.
In an undertaking of this nature the
slightest error might be productive of
infinite disaster. Every measurement
must be accurate to a hair's breadth.
Every portion of tho great arch must
perform its particular share of the great
combination that will be one of the
j; marvels of the world.
All that is done must be accomplished
quickly, for in affairs of this nature
time is indeed money. Every man who
can be utilized will join the army of
construction, jremapa nu wucaux icwiit
years has required or "will yet need
more skilled labor. In fact, in bridge
building it is becoming unsafe to utilize
labor of any other class. The bridge,
when complete, will in truth be a work
of genius in point of construction as
well as point of conception.
The work of preparing the material
for the great structure has been m progre
s for some time, as little can be accomplished
in an enterprise of this nature
until the preliminaries are complete.
When the effort of placing the
different parts of the bridge in position
is begun, Niagara will be one of the
busiest"of busy places.?Railroad Gazette.
[ Malaria Banished by Artesian Wells.
Our correspondent at Lake City,
Williamsburg county, reports that there
are now 18 artesian wells in the village
and adds, "Before the wells were bored
the people suffered a great deal with
fever and malaria, but now it is a rare
thing, indeed, to hear of a case of
either." This i3 very decided testimony
to tho value of pure water for the redemption
cf "malarial districts," and
Lake City's experience and example
should not be lost on other places where
the water is bad and health no better.
There was a "great deal" cf fever in
the village when the wells were shallow.
Now a case of it is "rare." That
is sermon enough for sensible people in
ether fever haunted places.?Charleston
News and Courier.
^ She Rules Europe.
"Germany," says Tho St. James Gazette,
"has had five sovereigns since
Queen Victoria began to reign. She herself
will in fnture be recognized as the
ancestress of one cf the most powerful
rulers. Her grandson wears the iron
crown of Germany. Her granddaughter
is empress of Russia. Another granddaughter
is the crown princess cf Roaruania.
Her second son rules over the
principality of Saxe-Coburg. The hereditary
princess of Saxe-hleiningen is her
granddaughter. The heir to the throne
of Greece is her descendant, the Grand
Duke of Hesse her grandson. She has no
fewer than 61 descendants who one day

Vera^ua and Cuba.
Among the people who find it difficult
to sympathize with the Cuban rebels is
the Duke of Veragna, that lineal descendant
of Col ambus who visited this
country in World's fair days. He is entitled
to draw from the Spanish government
the perpetual pension of ?4,000 a
year, which was charged upon the Cuban
revenue, and was granted to the famous
discoverer and his heirs forever.
If Cuba is lost to Spain, the duke is
likely to lose his pension.
A Graceful Retreat.
A petty newspaper of the Midi, which
had long been at the point of death, has
just found an ingenious means of closing
its career brilliantly. Its last issue
contained the following notice: "Taking
advantage of the national festivities
which will be occasioned by the arrival
of the czar, the illustrious friend of
France, this journal will cease to be
published."?Paris Figaro.
"What station do you call this?"
asked'a man as he caawled out of
the ruins of a carriage after a railway
accident. "Devastation, sir,"
replied his fellow-passengers, in
chorus.
SOME QUEER INDUSTRIES.
Odd Ways of Making a Living Disclosed
by the Latest Census.
Occupations open to the thrifty individuals
of both sexes have greatly increased
during the last two decades, or
even since the taking of the last decefc- I
nia! census, in 1890.
The extraordinary progress of science
during the time specified and tko appli- i
cation of its principles to the practical
problems of human life have not only
had the effect of greatly increasing the
capacity for production in the trades
already firmly established, but have
opened hundreds of queer side alleys
which lead direct to the avenues of
trade.
There are, of course, dozens of these
new and remarkable occupations with
which science does not de? even in the
remotest sense. In this class we find the
rat oatcher, the skunk farmer, the man
who makes his living by picking up lost
things in depots, theaters, hotels, etc.,
and returning them to their owners
with the expectation cf being rewarded,
the clock winder, the man who collects
orange and lemon peela and the Lako
Michigan syndicate which is new engaged
in raising black cats for their
fur. They arc not raising these cats on
water, as might bo inferred from the
title, but have leased an island in tho
great lake which is now plentifully
stocked with both sexes of screeching
felines.
There are still others in the nonscien
tifio category of queer occupations, but
it will only be necessary to mention a
few. One is a rattlesnake "farmer,"
who lives in tho Ozark mountains and
makes the products cf his "farm" bring
money from three different directions.
The oil he disposes of to druggists, who
have regular customers that believe it
to be a panacea for a hundred different
ills. The skins he sells to would be cowboys,
who use them as hat bands, and
the skeletons are always a ready sale,
tho purchasers being the curators of the
natural history departments of the different
college and society museums.
The man who wakes people up in the
morning, the old cork collectors and
the doc catchers are .well known char
acters in every large city.
The individuals who gain a livelihood
in pursuits that are strictly scientific
are equally as nnmerou3 as those
who follow the mere humble callings.
In the list of occupations that are strictly
scientific is the manufacture of artificial
eggs, artificial coffee and false diamonds;
also the industry of making buttons,
combs, penholders and other articles of
a similar nature from blood collected
at the slaughter bouses. The man who
makes billiard balls, buttons and rings
from potatoes which have been treated
to a solution of uifrio and sulphuric
acids is also the proprietor of an " industry"
wherein the fundamental principles
are strictly scientific.
But the queerest of all is carried on
by two young Pencsylvanians, who are
making a regular business of extracting
the poison from honeybees. According
to the accounts, they have two different
ways of collecting their crop of venom.
T? Al U A .1.1 ? A
JH UIO iiisi ilia uttro aio auugui .ii;u uuu
with their abdomens in small glass
tabes until the poison sacs have been
emptied. In the second they are placed
in a bottle on wire netting and enraged
until the tiny drops cf venom fall into
the alcohol which fills the lower third
of the bottle. This venom is said to be
a sovereign remedy for cancer, rheumatism,
snake bite and a hundred others
of the more terrible ills of humanity.?

Is There Irrigation In Mars?
It would seem that the planet Mars
is now in a condition to which the earth
must come. It is struggling against the
gradual disappearance of water on its
surface and in its atmosphere. There is
no weather there, for there is no rain
and there are no winds. Dew in winter
is deposited on its poles in the form of
snow. The rest of the planet consists of
deserts with very slight elevations. The
inhabitants have met this state of things
by a gigantic system of irrigation.
What we call canals are irrigated districts
about 30 miles wide, with a canal
running through them, from which water
i3 distributed. Here and there are
largo oases of irrigation, and these oases
are connected with each other by means
of the canals. When the snows of the
poles melt, the melted water is distributed
over, the planet, and thus crops are
produced. The inhabitants store up
food and water for that part of the year
when there is neither water nor vegetation.
So rarefied is the atmosphere that
one of these inhabitants can work at
one-twentieth the exertion that it costs
us, or, in other words, perform with the
same expenditure of strength 20 times
the task.?London Truth.
A Barbaric Dress.
While at Balmoral the czar on one
occasion is said to have appeared in
highland dress, out cf compliment to
Queen Victoria, but bis suit did not imit.nfcp
him Thp nnppn'a attention for all
things that savor of highland life is
well known, and her sons and grandsons
habitually don the kilt when on
Peeside. Perhaps, next to the Prince of
Wales, the most distinguished wearers
of it are the Marquis cf Lome and the
little Prince Alexander. It is said that
the Duke of York, while in Moscow last
summer to attend the czar's coronation,
appeared at a semiofficial reception in
the costume of the highlanders and
thereby incurred imperial displeasure,
while the Muscovite journals spoke cf it
as ,4an immodest and barbaric dress."
Pasteur and Silkworms.
A disease broke out among the silkworms
of France in 1853 which threatened
to ruin the business. In 1S58 a
government commission was appointed
to inquire into the cause of the evil and
suggest a remedy, when, by the labors
of Pasteur, the disease was found to be
due to microbes developed in the bodies
of the silkworms. Pasteur was fortunate
enough to discover a remedy, and the
silk industry of France soon resumed
its former prosperity.

Tl?e New Cable Code.
At the international telegraph conference
which was held yt Budapest in
July it was decided to issue a new official
vocabulary of preconcerted language.
This was opposed by American
firms who operate private codes, as the
value of these codes would be destroyed.
The conference adopted an amendment
to its constitution in order to provide
for these codes, and it has jast been issued
from headquarters at Bern, Switzerland.
Preconcerted language is defined
as composed of words having intrinsic
sense, but not combined into intelligible
phrases. Words in this language cannot
contain over ten characters according to
the Morse alphabet. They must bo taken
from ono or more of these languages:
German, ilnglisn, fcpamsn, rrencn,
Dutch, Italian, Portuguese and Latin.
Proper names cannot be used except
with their meaning in plain language.
The original sending office can demand
the production of the sender's code to
see that the rules have been observed.
From a date to be fixed by a future
conference all the words used in private
telegrams written in preconcerted language
will bo extracted from the official
vocabulary duty enlarged and compiled
by the international bureau of telegranh
administrations.
ine new volabulary will mcmae an
words of private cedes, provided they
are true unmutiliated words, taken from
the eight languages given above and
comply with the abovo rules. The international
bureau desires all compilers
of codes and all persons desiring words
from certain cedes reproduced in the
official vocabulary to forward them before
the end of this year to the "International
Bureau, of Telegraph Administrations,
Bern, Switzerland."
A Hasty Marriage.
"Marry in haste and repent at leisure"
is an old adage, and that it possesses
some truth is demonstrated in the case
of two young south siders. One of them,
it is certain, is in a penitent mood. The
story is as follows: A certain young
man, or boy, as ho is but 18 years of
age, and a girl of 17 had for some time
kept company with each other and made
up their minds to get rnarriod. All arrangements
were made, and everything
seemed rosy and bright till it was found
that a very essential thing had been
overlooked?the parents of the young
lady had not given their consent. The
young man at once set about to remedy
this, and imagine his dismay when he
was informed that he could not have
the girl of his choice for a wife. After
considering the matter ho proposed to
the girl that they elope. This she refused
to do. She was sure, however,
that if the young rpau would but wait
for a few mouths her parents' consent
could be gained. This he refused to do,
ana in a nun ne went away ana proposed
to another young woman. She at
once accepted him, and the wedding
was solemnized. Immediately after the
ceremony the young man concluded that
he had dene a foolish thing, and ho has
already instituted a suit for divorce, as
the parents of the first girl have said
that if he can secure his freedom he can
have their daughter.? Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph.
