Corner o! Main and 20!h streets,
The interior journal. [volume] (Stanford, Ky.) 1872-1881, 1874-11-27

During the recent building Of a bridge
in Holland, one of the trayerses, four
hundred and sixty-fye feet long, was
misplaced on the supports. 1t was an
inch out Of line, and the problem was
how To replace it. Experiments proved
that the iron-work expanded fraction
of an inch for every degree OF heat re-
ceiyed. II was noticed that the night
and day temperatures differed by about
twenty-five degrees and it was thought
this might he made TO move the bridge.
In the morning one end Of the pieces
was bolted down securely and the other
end left free. In the heat Of the sun the
iron expanded, and toward night the
free end was loosened. The contraction
then dragged the whole mass the other
way.
For two days this experiment was re-
peated, and the desired place reached.
We find no record that the heat Of the
sun has ever been employed in this way
before; the contraction aud expansion
of iron bars by fire heat has frequently
been used to move heavy weights over
short distances. Broken walls and
strained roof and arches have been
brought into place by simply heating
iron rods till they expanded, then taking
the slack by screws and nuts, and allow.
ing contraction by cold 10 pull the wall
or roof into place.

reign Of lawlessness in the coal regions ap-

caused perhaps BY the fact that most Of the
perpetrators Of assaults and murders escape
capture and punishment. At Carbondale,
on Saturday night or Sunday morning last
two men were murdered and three severely
wounded, one of whom who will probably
die. Patrick Padden, miner at Coal Brook
Colnery, was found on Dundoff street, in
that city, on Sunday morning, with two bul.
let holes in his head and badly pounded
about the body. His head was frozen to the
ground, the hair having dragged in pool Of
