Prof. E. c. Marshal says in New
York exchange: II have had occasion
lately to read up in French everything
that l could find on the subject Of
bridges. l discover that the French
have more suspension bridges than any
nation on the globe. Their engineers
are putting up suspension bridges every
where, and at least one of the structures
approximates the size of Brooklyn

in France that it is impossible to secure
an accurate list of them on this side of
the water"

the fuse of the boy colt for frivolous,
trivial or imaginary grievances.
The action partakes Of the enlighten-

and serious grievances exist, the boy
colt is effective. and it may appear
excusable whether iustifiable or not.
