Foreign Colonies in Great Cities.

In every large city of the world are
found foreigners who occupy neighbOr-
hoods where their language and en-
Payments remind them of home.
Thus there is an American colony in
London and Paris. French colony in
New York and Chinese quarters in San
Francisco. One of the sights of the
latter city which travellers visit is the
location where these pagans live. In
London certain capitalists have used
this foreign colony business by organ
izing Japanese and an In
dian village. both of which are
accurate reproductions of what
is actually to be seen in Japan
and Hindostan. The Indian village in
London cost fifty thousand dollars of
our money TO bring into existence. 1t
occupies some twenty thousand square
feet. and within the Enclosure are found
a realistic reproduction of the houses
occupations, attire and amusements of
the Hindoos. Artiiicers of all kinds
are found ut work. and the wares are
sold to visitors: in short, persons who
can not afford or do not care to 90 to
India can see Hindoo village in full
operation in London. The educa-
tiOnal value of these exhibitions is very
great. as it makes the visitors ac-
Tuainted with the occupations. habits,

Another Explosion to b. Made Theirs
soon-Extent Of the Operations.
There are few people now living who
do not recall the elaborate preparation
and great interest connected with the
explosion at Hell! Gate in the early fall
of1S75, at which time three and one-half
acres of rock projecting out from Astoria
into the channel were cleared away.
For months previous to this explosion
the work of preparing for similar treat
ment the reef at Flood Rock. a more i'm
portant and dangerous reef than that at
Hallett's Point. had been going on, the
Flood Rocks being directly in the course
Of vessels rounding the point. and with
.heir disappearance will result far
greater boon to East River navigators
than that following the memorable ex-
plosion of 1875. This great work. pre-
paratory to the explosion that is to occur
in October next, has been carried on for
the past ten years with force varying
from $50 to 500 men, one-third of the
force being always at work day and
night. Within the past few days the
great labor of cutting q go feet of gal
leries through solid rock. and perforat-
ing the roof of the structure with Ii, 700
holes-which if all strung together would
measure over twenty miIes-three inches
in diameter aud nine feet long was
finished.
This mode of drill is worked BY COM
pressed air and has the reputation of
h.,tn hn ,rl,
drill made. yet it consumed five hours
time to drill one of these upward in
clined holes, bottoming two and three
quarters to ten feet, which will be loaded
with an explosive now generally used
for all blasting purposes and known as
''RacSarock." The popularity Of this
compound is that the two ingredients
composing it-One solid, the other
fluid-are harmless when separate.
They can be transported and handled
without special precaution. Two num-
dred and twenty-five thousand pounds
OF this compound are TO be used. packed
in copper cylinders two and half inches
in diameter and two feet long. holding
about six pounds of explosive each. In
addition to the .Rackarock" powder
about $4,000 thousand pounds of No. 1
dynamite will be used. The cartridges
will be exploded BY electric illuminate
primes of the usual type. The men who
pack the rackarock into the cylinders
are experts. Each cylinder is soldered
when full. so as to make it water-tight.
This is Il delicate operation. but choice
of means to be used seems to place it out
of danger. The loaded cylinders are
placed in the mine holes by picked men.
who have volunteered for the work.
When the cylinders are all in the mine
will be Hooded with water and the cart
ridges exploded. In the Hallett's Point
explosion $4,000 pounds of dynamite
were used. about one-siXth of the amount
of explosives to be used 1T Flood Il ok.
Since the beginning of the work at
Floos! Rock only one man has been
killed and that was some years ago and
through the mans own carelessness.
The cost of the whole work. including
