many lives had been lost The report brought
dospar to many persons. who hastily argued
that if tho cables could not support their own
weight they would certainly not be able TO hold
up the bridge. Soon. however. the Intelligence
was spread that it was not the cable that had
parted, but only part Of the tackle which was
holding one Of the cable strands. and that two
mon only were killed
Each Of the four main cables of tho BROOKLYN
bridge Is 10 contain nineteen strands. The
three southern cables now contain fifteen
strands apiece. and yesterday the fifteenth
strand for the up-river cable was completed.
In ordert to have each Of the $50 No. wires that
form n strand accurately Of the same length
they are stretched at much higher tension
than they are intended to maintain. and after
the strand is completed it is let out from the
New York anchorage and allowed to sng until
1t takes position with its fellows in the growing
| cable.
Yesterday morning the ncwly-complctcd
strand was sixty feet above tho cable midway
between the two towers. but by allowing about
twelve feet of il 10 run out over the edge Of the
high New York anchorage. tho middle point Of
the strand would sag the necessary sixty feet.
This work Of lowering the new strand was un-
dcrtaken in the forenoon by Master Mechanic
Harrington and twenty-five riggers. under the
foremanship Of Harry Supple.

As Big A RASCAL AS EVER. "A writer in
the Little Rock Gazette tells good story.
He was formerly the master of slave
known as Crow Sam, a great thief and a
worthless fellow generally. The writer
mencement of the war, and he saw no more
of him till it was over. The rest of the story
in the writer's own words is as follows:
After peace was made l moved over into
an adjoining county and went to work try
ing to repair my broken fortune. One day
a negro that had working for me knocked
down one of my horses, which SO enraged
me that struck him several times with a
cane He went away and returned with a
constable, who summoned me to
appear next day before magistrate.
Officers were not quite so numer-
Gus then as now, and the magistrates office
was several miles away. Well, sir, when |
got there, who should / see on the bench
but old Grow Sam. He was fat and greasy,
and had on an enormous pair of spectacles.
When everything had been made ready,
Court was opened, and old Sain., giving me
searching look, remarked:
"Pears that I've seed you afore."
'Look here Sam" l said, 81 don't like 10
he mixed up this way; try to settle this
affair without malice"
"De law is gwine to hab its dreck
course" said Sam. "Things hab kinder
changed since we was in business together
but de principle OBJ de niger haben't
revoluted. Dis niger is as big a rascal as
used 10 be; so, Mars John, I'll discharge
you, fiinging de black apein de cost"
