and some smaller obstacles to vessels.
Drilling was begun long ago upon Pot
Rocks and the Frying pan Rocks, both
OF which reefs can be removed at anv
time. On the north side of the channel
are two small rocks, known as Great Mill
Rock and Little Mill Rock; they are not
IN the way of vessels, and will be made
the supports for dyke between the two
rocks, made of the material from Flood
Rock. The work of improving the East
River and He'll Gate was decided upon
In 1867, and General Newton began work
In 1867. His original estimate of the
cost was $5,000,0OO. Up to the 3Oth of
June, 1881, the appropriation had been
$,9OO,OOO, and the expenses $2,6l6,OOO
Gen. Newton is confident that the entire
work can be finished without exceeding
the original estimate unless constant in
terruptions, due to lack of money, inter-
fere with the work and scatter the men.
About four years more will be necessary
to complete the whole work if the tun-
neling of Flood Rock goes on sufficiently
fast to allow the final explosion to occur
about two years hence. The present ap-
preparation for the work will be exhausted
in less than two months, and unless Con-
gress makes another appropriation at
once the men who have learned to do the
work will be dispersed, the machinery
will deteriorate, and when work begins
again much time and money will be
wasted in teaching new men.

The FATHER OF THOUSAND Chill.
DREN. An old man has lust died in
Vienna whose name deserves to be chron-
icled in all lands for the singular good
ness of his life. Ferdinand Reidt has
been known in his own city as "the
father of the orphans" for nearly half
century. He was man of considerable
means, and was happily married, but it
was great grief to him and his wife
that they continued to be childless. Herr
Reidt said to his wife: "since we are not
to have children of our own, can we not
be parents to some of those who are
fatherless and motherlsss?" He was a
man of action, and began at once to carry
his conception into practice. He COM
menced with taking fatherly charge of
two or three orphans, but his zeal and
repute increased to such an extent that
at the time of his death he was the legal
guardian of more than thousand father
less children. Those whom he adopted
in this manner were not ftfully taken
up and then let drop, but he kept con-
scientious watch and ward over them
from their early education until their
marriage or their start in adult life at the
end of their apprenticeship. He never
sought fame or publicity, and took no
credit to himself for his devotion to those
who had no natural claim upon him.
Now that he is departed, however, every
one speaks of his singular life, its quiet.
ness, and yet restless energy, it's con-
scientiousness and severe fidelity to his
self-imposed obligations. He began by
asking as favor to be accepted as the
honorary guardian" of two or three
orphans, and the calling that he had
taken up for his own satisfaction, as he
put it, was in time regarded by his fell
low citizens as sort of official occupa-
tion which he was bound to fulfil. Herr
Reidt had an especial tenderness towards
illegitimate children who from no
fault of their own started life under a
heavy shadow. His courage was equal
to his tenderness. When he could dis
cover the father of an illegitimate child,
he would seek the man out and deal
plainly with him as to the duty which he
had incurred by his sin. In this way he
often compelled fathers to look after
their own children, who would otherwise
have fallen under the hard discipline of
the official guardians of such unwelcome
additions to the population.

Apprehended Trouble with the Apa-
ches.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 1.-THE Com
missioner Of Indian Affairs has just re-
ceiyed the following telegram from Indian
Agent Llewellyn concerning the appre-
bended trouble with the Mescalero Apa-
ches in New Mexico:
"MeScdlero Agency, May 10th, by cou-
rier uid Fort Stanton, Commissioner
of Indian Affairs, Washington, ID. e.: In
view Of the failure Of Congress 10 make APP
preparations for subsisting the Indians,
and in view of the fact that the beef and
flour on hand will only last until about
July LIST, and that these Indians bave no
means of subsisting themselves, it seems to
me that it will be policy to transfer them
to the War Department, which should take
/ charge Of them before starvation compel-
them to commit depredations, which will
naturally lead TO great loss OF life and de-
struction Of valuable property. As soon as
the supplies are cut off the military will
have to act. Therefore think il advisable
/ for the troops to take charge OF the Mesca-
/ lero Apaches at once. Nothing short OF
force can compel them 10 remain on the
reservation and starye. The action OF Con.
gress in this matter simply means to the
Mescaleros determination.
