Bridges.

The first bridges were of wood, and
Il earliest of which we have any ac-
count was built in Rome 500 B. e.
The next was erected by julius Caesar
for the passage Of his army across the
Rhine. Trajan's great bridge over the
Danube, 477O feet long, was made of
timber, with stone piers. The Romans
also built the first stone bridge, which
crossed the Tiber. Suspension bridges
are of remote origin. A Chinese one
mentioned by Kirchen was made of
chains supporting a roadway $50 feet
in length. II was built A. D. IS, and
1t still to be seen. The first large iron
bridge was erected over the Severn in
1777. The age Of railways has
brought q remarkable deveiopmentin
this branch Of engineering, especially
in the construction Of bridges Of iron
and steel.-caltt0ator

Mexican Silver Money.

San Francisco, it is believed, is the
only city in the United States in which
the exchange Of Mexican dollars is ex
tensively conducted, and is one of the
only two cities in the world where the
business Is largely transacted-the
other being London. The Mexican
dollar is an ugly i~ll-stamped. badly
milled silver disk of Al grains, but it
has been accepted as the standard coin
Of China for nearly thirty years and
has steadily grown in use and favor,
notwithstanding the amusing episode
of the trade dollar, with its 420 grains
and English die-sinker.

The Largest Nugget OF Gold.

largest nugget ever found in Califor-
mia was worth a little more than $2I,-
600 is ar n one, says the

that j. J.. Finney, "Old Virginia."
found a piece Of gold about six miles
from Downieville, Sierra County, on
the 21st day Of August, 1857, that
weighed 5000 ounces. The gold OF
that vicinity was worth $18 an ounce,
which would make the value Of the
nugget some 100000! This would
make the Finney nugget the largest
piece of pure gold ever discovered, so
far as accounts go. Heretofore the
Australian nugget, found In the Bal
larst gold fields, has been considered
the largest It was valued at 100000.

UnderclOthing.

Says DR.. VIM. A. Hammond, "The
chief object of underclothing is the re-
tention of the natural heat of the body
n such a way that low temperatures
and sudden charges wiM not affect the
surface. Several years ago I perform
ed some experiments which went to
show beyond any doubt that silk is
below wool in its power to prevent
the loss Of heat from the body, and
very little superior to cotton. Indeed,
nothing is in this respect preferable to
wool. and of this material all under
clothing meant for winter use should
be made. IN summer a mixture Of
wool and cotton, called merino, may
be worn, but even in very hot weather
silk Is not desirable, for it is not such
a ready absorber of the Precipitation as
wool, and allows the body to be kept
in a state mo- very remote from that
known as parboiled. Wool. however,
taking up. as it does, the moisture
from the body, exposes it to the atmos-
phere. or is evaporated, and, the pro-
cess being q cooling one, keeps the
skin from being overheated. No un-
derclothing should ever be so thick as
to prevent free passage of the cuta-
neous excretions and the atmospheric
air. The skin requires ventilation as
do the lungs. Chamois-skin under
garments, perforated" or unperforat-
ed, are denominations.

A Young Indians Romantic History.

A Young Indians Romantic History.
A tall young man, with a complex
ion of the rich color of the ripe chest
nut and with limbs as clearly cut as
thoSe Of Michael Angeles statue of
David, called upon President Cleve-
land recently. and asked the appoint
ment of a cadetship at West Point,
says a Washington correspondent of
the Cleveland Leader. 1t was young
Hole-in-the-Da Day the son of the noted
Chippewa Chief, and now the King of
all the Chippewas. He is about eigh-
teen years old. is over six feet tall, and
he has an eye like that Of a young
eagle. A romance clusters around
him. and it was at Washington where
his father, the noted Chippewa King,
met the woman who became his moth
or. It was in 1867 that old Hole-in-
the-Day came here on business with
the President. He was made much of
by the newspapers, feted by society,
and at the National Hotel, where he
was stopping, he was spoken Of as the
rich Indian King, who owned the
greater part of the lands Of the North
west. At this hotel there was a pref
ty Irish chambermaid who did up the
old chiefs room. The two met. They
looked, and from their eyes sprang
love. Chief Hole-in-the-D Day, who had
met the bellies of Washington. passed
them Ly, and chose the chambermaid.
He proposed. She accepted. They
were married, and she went back to
Minnesota an Indian queen. From
the marriage sprang this boy, who has
now inherited his fathers position.
The old King begot the jealousy of
some Of the Indian tribes by his union
with q white wife. and they suspected
him of treacherously giving away
their lands. They assassinated him.
Mrs. Hole-in-the-D Day still lives. Her
boy has the true military bearing
about him, and he looks and walks
like the king that he is. He dresses
in American clothes. and talks pure
Anglo-Saxon. Governor Ramsey is
pushing his claims. and he will proba-
bly, receive an appointment.

Foreign Life Mt Washfngton.

"sAo "S SOhs
1t is a curious thing that the capital
of the United States should be more
like a foreign city than any other
town in this country, says a Washing
ton letter. The writer adds: It is a
great place for people who have lived
In Europe for a good many years to
set up their household. 1t is a kind
of brake which gently let's them down
from the intoxication of European life
to the dead level of an American
commercial city. This class of re-
turned tourists make up much Of the
winter population of Washington
and being as a rule both rich and idle,
they add much to its charm. Nowhere
on this continent is there so much leis-
ure as here. Everything like work be-
gins at 9 O'Clock and ends at q. Then,
unlike other great cities, the workers
do not have to traverse the whole
length and breadth Of the town to get
to their homes. The public workshops
"Ao 20 oA"AV 40 uOU 1dE 1EOIl ANY
mans work to his home. The short
er hours of work which prevail in
foreign cities are a continual marvel
to the American. The idea Of a man
of. business making his first D e
ance at his Office at 10 o'clock in the
morning. then taking a big slice off at
noon-just the most valuable part Of
the working day-and then quitting
about the time the American gets
fairly warmed up to his work is GER
tainly very surprising. But it becomes
still more so when he comes here and
finds that after 4 o'clock all the town
is at leisure. It is true that the high
er officials have longer hours and the
Cabinet officers are driven to death if
they mind their business, but the av-
erage worker does his eight hours
work, and then leaves off, with two
hours of daylight before him even in
winter.
Then for that fraction Of the world
known as society" the hours are
fixed and invariable, and this. too, con-
daces to the economy of time. One is
in NO danger of having a whole day,
from noon to twilight, monopolized by
a string of inconsequential visitors.
Nobody visits before 2, and nobody
versed in Washington society before
5, and at 81 it is all over. All official
houses and nearly all private ones
have a day for receiving, So that each
individual has six days in which to
labor and do all that he or she has to
do. 1t is a wonder that this easy,
well-ordered life charms people to
washington, and getting them here
keeps them?

Soft, soft as the days drop
From Times finger-tips.

Yet nc sound from any :
Oh, so last. oh, so fast!
Yet no track where they passed.
oh, SO fragile, SO frail!

That Fox Hunt Daring Riding.
Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch !
FEBRUARY 2, 1885.
The fox-chase on Friday was huge
thing. There were about sixty gentle
men, old hunters and novices, and about
fifty dogs engaged. The foxes had
been kept up too long to make good
runs. They were turned loose, one at
a time, about four miles from town on
the old Lynchburg road, where they
could have the option oftaking to the Rag
gcd mountains on one side or the South
west mountains on the other. The first
one took towards the Southwest noun
tains, but the dogs pushed him so hard
that he took to creek, where he was
found by one Of the foremost riders
swapping at the dogs. This gentleman
dismounted and rushed into the water,
picked up the fox, and carried it back
to the starting-place. Before it could
be turned loose again the dogs got to it
and killed it. The other fox was turned
loose, and took an opposite direction,
and after fair run was caught
about Maury's Mill. Some Of the
incidents were interesting. Mr.. VIII
lie Garth was quite badly hurt
by collision with another horse
man. Mr. Garth was tainted by some
Englishmen in the party with the re-
mark, "These blarssed Yirginians do

was lodged for the night. He pleaded
guilty to drunkenness, and was sent to

lot of valuable iewelry by sharper,
who gave bogus check in payment.
The chief of police received commu-
