Ancient Bridges.

The first bridges were of wood, and
the earliest Of which we have any ac-
count was built in Rome 500 B. C. The
next was erected by Julius Caesar fol
the passage of his army across the
Rhine. Traian's great bridge over the
Danube, ALTO feet long, was made OF
timber, with stone piers. The Romans
also built the first stone bridge, which

A French Railway Incident.

A murderous attack was made by foui
men few days ago on a passenger in
the morning express running between
Paris and Brussels. A gentleman, who
entered tirst-class compartment was
followed by the four men, who had
previously attracted the attention of
the station-master as suspicious
looking characters, so much so that he
had warned the guard to keep an eye on
their movements during the journey.
No sooner had the train started than
the strangers produced playing
cards, and asked the fifth passen-
ger to join in the game. The
gentleman declined. The ruflians set
upon him, and were about to thrust him
out on the railway track when the guard
suddenly appeared On his arrival one

doorway, and has not since been heard

How Precocious Youngster Discovered
New Kind OF Dirt.
On train up in Wisconsin was q
small boy from Chicago and his large
mother. They had been visiting some
country relatives, and the large mother
was evidently afraid the small boy had
acquired bad habits and other para
sites while playing with his country
cousins, for she got his head
down upon newspaper in her lap and
held it close to the window, and began
to look around in the hair as if she had
lost something. Every few seconds
Johnny raised his head and inquired in
loud voice:
"Ma, what you doingP"
"Hush, Johnny" his mother wills
pered, II am looking for dirt.
Then Johnny resigned himself to his
fate, only to rise up again in few sec
onds, and exclaim:
INA, do you find any dirtp"
"Sh-h! Lie down, Johnny" was the
good mothers reply.
Twenty seconds passed, and the in
quisitive boy bobbed up his head once
more, saying:
INA, want to see the dirt. :"
"Be still, child, sh-h!" whispered the
Industrious matron.
Down went the little head, but il
could not rest in peace. The eyes in il
rolled around curiously, and soon il
bobbed up again, and the boys gaze fell
upon the newspaper.
"Say, ma" said the amazed Johnny,

all turned to listen.

PRESIDENTIAL SUCCESSION.

The present condition of the law relating
to the succession to the Presidency in the
event of the death di stability or removal OF
both the President and Vice President, Is
such as TO require immediate amendment.
This subject has repeatedly been considered
BY Congress, but no result has been reached.
The recent immediate death of the Vice
President and vacancies at the same
time in oil other offices, the incum
beuts of which might Immediately exer

has caused public anxiety and Just de-
mand that a recurrence OF such a condition
of affairs should not be permitted.
In conclusion. commend to the wise care
and thoughtful attention OF Congress the
needs, the welfare and the aspirations OF
an intelligent and generous Nation. To
subordinate these to the narrow dis
advantages of partszanship or the &C

the peoples trust and betray the people s
interests But an individual sense of re-
