him. "Real.y, l never take any

NJ. Got, the charming French
comedian, was in his youth nearly
lost to the stage. While a student
In the Conservatoire he was CON-
scripted, and, having no money
and no rich friends, he was obliged
to 60 to Algeria as q cavalryman.
There he served for some time and
WAS an excellent soldier. He
would probably have won his epau.
lettes had not his Colonel dis
covered in him the stuff of great
comedian, and excited in his favor
the interest of Mile. Mars. With
noble generosity she redeemed the
young trooper and enabled him to
resume his studies. M. Got twice

works of poets and dramatists as
superior to that of men.

The large caisson In the working
shaft Of the Hudson River Tunnel,
ct the foot of Morton street, after
having been sunk sixteen feet, has
been stopped by the tidewater
breaking through under the iron
shoes and flooding the chamber to
the depth of six feet. The break
under the cAisson is due to the ma.
ture Of the earth In which the men
have to work and to the nearness
Of the shaft to the river. Although
the caiseon weighs 400 tons 1t is
not near heavy enough to pass
through the earth and 100 tons of
railroad iron will be placed on the
top to force 1t down. The caisson
is the largest working chamber for
underground work ever built, and
after the air lock has been put In
and the railroad iron placed on the
top, it will weigh nearly 6oO
tons.
