Model ROad.Making.

The form OF pavement that is used in
London and Paris, and but little if any
in this country, is thus described by II.
A. Chaplin, of this city, who has investi.
gated its qualities: Beneath the pave.
ment proper is built agrouted, solid bed,
foot deep, made of cement and coarse
gravel. The top surface describes a
gradual curve from curb to curb like the
surface made by the present system. On
this bed are set endwise pine blocks,
kyanized or boiled in cold-tar, with an
upper surface of thirty lnare inches and
vertical length of seven or eight inches
These are placed little apart, and the
spaces between are filled with Roman
cement tempered properly with sand,
which, being swept, leaves a smooth sur
face. This preparation serves to protect
the wood from water, and every rain or
sprinkling washes all impurities into the
cutters, leaving the pavement perfectly
clean. The construction is slightly
yielding, it is said, and affords plenty of
! foothold for horses without tearing their
feet to pieces. The way this surface
stands wear is wonderful. In the
thronged London thoroughfares like

omnibuses run over this kind of pave.

Dying in the Harness.

Few passages in the history of litera>
ture have a more touching and pathetic
interest than those relating to the last
scenes in the lives of men of letters, who
have retained the grasp upon the pen
until death has given them release.
Such scene is that depicted by the
historian Green in his account of the
death of Beda, or the Venerable Bede,
the father Of English history. The good
monk was engaged at the time in finish
ing his version of st. Johns Gospel. It
was two weeks before the Easter of 755
that the shadows began to creep over
him. ~ don't want my boys to read a
lie," he answered those who would have
had him rest, cor to work to no purpose
after / am gone" A few days before
Ascension-tide his sickness grew upon
him, but he spent the whole day in
teaching, only saying cheerfully to his
scholars, Learn with what speed you
may l know not how long may last. "
The dawn broke upon another sleepless
night, and again the old man called his
scholars around him and bade them
write. "There is still chapter want
ing," said the scribe, as the morning
drew on, ''and it is hard for thee to
question thyself longer" cit is easily
done,n said Beda; "take thy pen and
write quickly" Amid tears and fare
wells the day wore on to eventide.
"rhere is yet one sentence unwritten,
dear master, " said the boy. "Write ii
quickly" bade the dying man. at is
finished now," said the little scribe, at
last. "You speak TRUTH said the mas.
ter, call is finished now." Placed upon
the pavement, his head supported in hi:
scholars arms, his face turned to the
spot where he was wont to pray, Bedl
chanted the solemn "Glory to Cod" A:
his voice reached the close of his song ht
passed quietly away. .-Neto York Observer

A Mountain Railroad.

The great tunnel of Galera, by which
the pinnacle of the Andes is pierced, will
be, when completed, $500 feet long,
and will be the highest elevation on the
earth's surface where any such work has
been undertaken. Beside boring the
mountains of granite and blasting clefts
along their sides to rest the track upon,
steep cuttings and superb bridges, the
system of reverse tangents had to be
adopted in canons that were too narrow
for curve. So the track zig-zags up
the mountain side, on the switch and
back up principle, the trains taking one
leap forward, and after being switched
on to another track another leap back
ward. until the summit is won; so that
often there are four and five lines of track
parallel to each other, one above the
other on the mountain side.

service is of tin. The quality Of the food
is good, and no one is stintcd. The
evening meal consists of bread and
coffee. 1t is served to the men in their

changed each day. The work of the
day stops at five o'clock Then the men
are marched to their cells. They march
to and from work with lock step and the
fright hand placed on the shoulder of the
man in front. In their cells prisoners
have the privilege of reading and smok-
ing to their hearts content. Each man
is furnished with two ounces of smoking
tobacco per week. AS many of them
don't smoke others get double sup

The health of Sing Sings inmates is

difficult to conceive, as the sick roll
averages only twenty-five per month.
Two services are held in the prison on
Sundays, one Protestant and the other
Roman Catholic. The men can attend
either or neither, as they choose. Most
of them attend service. They say it re.

General sedrwIck and tho volunteer.

General M. 4. McMahon tells the fol-
lowing war story in the Cincinnati En-
ouirer. On one occasion volunteer
soldier came lettering around our head
quarters, and Sedgwick was sitting out
on the ground near by, with no sign OF
his rank whatever. He hardly ever wore
any insignia; he was very plain indeed.
- The soldier came up and said; i

around headquartersP
"'I don't know said Sedgwick;

80 Why, some of my friends from the
Third Corps have come over to make me
little visit and l want to give them
something to drink, and l want to get
an order on the sutler to let me buy some
whisky
"'Oh, said Sedgwick, you don't want
any whisky. You and your friends will
like each other just as much without
whisky

"The man looked very dubious about
this fellow being of any help to him.
Sedgwick took little piece of paper and
wrote on it:
"'The sutler will let the bearer have

Changes in POPULAR Sports.

the pastime may remain more or less
a favorite indefinitely. As an illustra-

first flashed before an admiring public
away back in 20 as velocipede rider
and instructor. That was all the rage
then, and every little town had its
velocipede hall. The interest in that
sport soon died out. Vclocipedes were
too heavy and cumbersome, and it was
too much like work TO operate them.
Then was swimming instructor at a
Long Branch bathing establishment, and
aftcrward professional athlete and
dancer. Then came the bicycle craze,
which only came to stay with few, but
is still popular. Well my old velocipede
experience stood me in good stead, and

Good for the Shoemakers.

"There is one thing about roller skat-
ing that has never been in the papers, F."
said city shoemaker to a correspond
ent.
"What is it," said I. 'I thought
roller skating had been written about
from above, below and all around"
'Simply that it is a mighty good
thing for the shoemakers. A skater
wants as nice looking shoe as possible,
and one as small as he can wear. The
smaller the shoe. the sooner it wears out,
and skates are hard on shoes anyhow.
So you see we have been doing thriv-
ing business on account of the craze,

otherwise would have gone on purchas
