THE BRooK1Yx BRiDGE.AAfter
about fourteen years hard labor the
great suspension bridge between New
York and Brooklyn has been com
pleted, and thus two large cities con-
.nccted, in manner which was meyer
dreamed of in Revolutionary times.
It is indeed the crowning work of the
century, and can be cI9ssed among
the wonders of this country. The
suspension bridges at Niagara Falls
and over the Ohio river at Cincinnati,
are merely foot bridges in comparison
with it. Its dimensions, history and
cost are familiar to alf readers of. the
daily papers, and do not need to. be
repeated here; but we do wish to
speak of PERUNA, the greatest dig
covery of this century It is a.med-
lcine discovered BY DR.. S. B. Hart
man, of Pittsburgh. and prescribed
by him in thousand of cases ditring
thirty years of continuous practice.

Novel Decorative Work in Tie
.A Sun Offce.

The Baltimore San has introduced
in Marylandaa new, thing, in interior
decorations. The businesstoffic has
been adorned in, a new. style. known
as glass veneer, in which the appear
ance of various stones and marbles
is produced by the combination of
hand and mechanical :, painting on
glass. The ceiling ard walls have
been. paneled in the simiIitude of fif-
teen varieties .8f stone and marble.
In the centre of the ceiling is a fine
representation of the Mexican onyx.
The prevailing colors in hepaneling
along the borders and sides are those
of Lyonaise, Irish, Sienna and Moss
agate marbles. The general effect of
the decorations is rich, warm and
lustrous. At night, when the glow
of the electric lights is reflected from
every part of.thc room, the. effect rs
remarkably brilliant. Another effect
that tile glass veneering gives is that
of spaciousness.- The office looks as
if it had been enlarged incyery lirec-
ton. The magnificent air-lock re-
Gently placed in the Office is seen to
greater advantage by the. richness of
the Surroundings.
Glass vcneers can be made in i'm
itation hot only of stones and MARI
bles,zbut also,of all kinds. of woods.
1t as done through patented mechan-
ical process, the colors and dyes
being applied to the reverse side of
glass, and protected by 1acquet
backing which preserves it from dam
age by mir or water. The glass du-
ring the process is subjected to mn
intense heat, which thoroughly fixes
the colors. The surface finish is as
smooth as polished marble. %tfhe
ycneers are not spoiled by smoke
or water, differing in this. respect
from ceilings frcscoed in plaster
Renewing is never required except
when one.of the thick panels happen
to be broken, in which event it ,cansbe
replaced in fcwp minutes by.a new
glass. When the ceilings OF walls
become soiled or smoky they can be
washed like ordinary window glass.
In new buildings it is said there is no
necessity for lathing and plastering
when the .-veneers are used. Table
and bureau tops, mantlepiece, floors
for ,vestibules, and panels for furni-
ture and street and railway cars can
also be made by the new process.
Nressrs. VIM. Writ Clarke & Son, of
Baltimore, are the-Southern. agents
for the invention. Mr.. George f..
Thomas superintendent the work,
which has been admired by thousands
of visitors to the Sun counting room.

TIE municipal elections in Ohio indicate
nothing in particular. In Cincinnati the
parties have split, each winning part. In
Columbus, usually Democratic the Re-
publicans have won, while in Cleveland,
usually Republican, the Democrats have
carried the day. In the smaller cities and
towns the results are very much as usual.
Toledo, the home of rampant Greenback-
ism and Jim Steedman, has probably gone
Republican by a small majority.

Yesterday afternoon, while the Critic
stood on plateau of the west side Of the
Capitol, beholding with tear.dimmed eyes
the almost painful efforts of the greensward
below to assert its spring majesty and rise
above the surface, he was somewhat
startled by hearing the musical voice of n
lady behind him. She said
" beg pardon, sir, but will you kindly
tell me the direction shall 60 to get to tho
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad depot 2"
The Critic, thinking the lady had ad
dressed him, looked around, and was about
to give the desired information, when he
saw bowling, Ia Turkish, before the lady
thing which is sometimes called a man,
but which is better known as dude. The
dude had been spoken to, and it told the
lady in its peculiar English-fipmagilde
style-thc way she should 90 in order TO
reach the depot.
After thanking the monstrosity with the
tight pants and banged hair, the lady
started to go, when the dude broke out,
"Ah, Miss would that l could be of more
service to you. 1t would crafty me
awfully, indeed it would'
We'll, sonny, you may carry this satchel

Balaam.
