The Late Ale

The current Haasgssszs 5zdaper's Weekly
contains an engraving OF U44* late Alexander
T. Holley, son of Governor HolIsy, of Lake
vile, and very interesting sketch of his life.
Says the writer: Mr.. Holley's friend Rossi-
ter W. Raymond has told an incident which
shows clearly his natural superiority in his
profession. When about twenty-five years
old he made a wager ''that he could run To-
connective a mile without fire, water or
steam, the locomotive to be taken empty and
cold from the shop, and towed by another
engine to point at some distance on the
road, where a level stretch of track favored
the experiment. Young Ho1ley rode in soil
tary state on his cold locomotive to the scene
of trial, and, unsupported by his escort, SO
arranged matters that during the trip the
motion of the drivers and pistons stored the
boiler with compressed air. Of course this
gave him, by the time the destined point was
reached, an accumulation of power, by means
of which he ran out his mile, and won his
wager.

The HarbOrs of the Sound,

The War department has reported to Con-
gress the results of the surveys of several
harbors on Long Island Sound which were
ordered by the last Congress. The cost of a
breakwater for the protection of the harbor
of Madison, Connecticut, would be 1926, OOO
The restoration of the channel in Clinton
harbor, Connecticut, SO that it would be 100
feet wide and six feet deep at low water,
would cost $4,000. For 1922, 900 a break
water can be built off Joshua's Point to pre-
vent the shoaling of the harbor of Green
port, New York, at the eastern
end of Long Island. To remove the sunIzen
rocks which obstruct the channel of Mamar-
oneck harbor and to excavate channel at
the upper part of the harbor would cost
$43, 600. Major Barlow says: ''This har-
Dor presents natural commercial advantages,
being the port of large and prosperous
back country which, it is believed, would de-
rive great benefit from a safe water route to
New York" Citizens desire to run daily
steamboat to New York from this harbor,
but are prevented from doing SO by the OBJ
structions which the proposed improvements
would remove. A large and convenient har-
Dor of refuge could be made at Milford,
Conn, by building two low breakwaters at q
cost of $4OO, 900, but breakwater sufficient
for the protection of local commerce can be
made at a cost of $4,000
