through Servia but there was a great
gap in Bulgaria, the Turks opposed
the completion of the line aud the in
ternal troubles Of the small principal.
ity long delayed it,
In spite of Russia's opposition and
all the harassing to which he has been
subject since accepting the rulership
of Bulgaria, Prince Ferdinand has
steadily exerted himself to improve
the country, and the completion OF
this road is practically his work. The
day of its opening was grand fete in
his little dominion. He officiated in
person, and was especially gracious to
the French engineers who had design
ed the route and directed the work,
as well as to the many artists and re-
porters present. Bulgaria is a coun-
try of great natural fertility, and the
people were once noted for their love
of and skill in gardening; but war,
rapine and bad government have al
most obliterated the marks of their
taste. The prince designs to reawak-
EN- their taste and love again, and to
improve agriculture and facilitate
trade and communication with the
world, and this railroad is his first
achievement to that line.
Down to August 18th, the traveller
proceeding through middle Europe to
Constantinope had to go to Varna, on
the Black sea there take vessel and
come back from the east to the city.
Now he can take the direct route
southeast from Belgrade. 1t is trip
of rare Interest. One goes over the
ground which the Turks won in their
wild rush into Europe, and which has
since been taken from them strip at a
time, and right along the border
where the Romans (both of the east
and west) contended for three centur-
les with the Goths and their wild sue
cessors. First travesting Servia to
Nische, its second capital, and east
ward to the border; then Bulgaria
through Sofia, the capital then Turk
ish Roumelia through Vakarel, Bel
Iowa and Philippopoli, the traveller
enters Turkey proper near the histor-
ic city of Adrianople, and thence down
to Constantinople. On the return he
can take the water route through the
Mediterranean.-Ex.

The New Forth Bridge.

The new railroad bridge over the
Firth of Forth, in Scotland, to re-
place the one which went down with
such appalling results few years
ago, is now near completion, and is
described as one of the finest pieces OF
engineering in the world. The chief
engineer gives the following "cold
facts" regarding it: Total length of
the viaduct will be 1926 feet, or near
ly / miles, and there are two spans
1,71O feet, two of $50 feet, fifteen of
1853 feet girders, four of 81 feet, and
three of Is feet, being masonry arches.
The clear Roadway for navigation will
not be less than $50 feet for 500 feet
in the center of the 1,7l0 feet spans.
The extreme height of the structure
is 361 feet above, and the extreme
depths of foundations 81 feet below
the level of high water. There will
be about $4,000 tons of steel in the
superstructure of the viaduct, and the
material used throughout is open
hearth or Siemens-Martin steel. That
used for parts subject to tension is
specified to withstand a tensile stress
of 30 to So tons to the square inch
with an elongation in eight inches of
not less than 20 per cent. that SUBJ
ject to compression only a tensile
stress Of Of "a to 81 tons per square

TRAIN WRECKED

A cattle train composed of eleven cars,
was wrecked on the O. r. & N. railroad
near Downing siding, at $50 Saturday
afternoon, and Walter Short, brake
man, was instantly killed. Edward
Barry, the other brakeman, was danger
ously hurt. From an eye witness OF the
wreck the followin, account of accident
is cleaned: The accident occurred at
the entrance Of a cut, about qnarter OF
"a mile from Downing siding, where the
sharp curve is made to make the descent
of the Blue mountain grade. The cars
were going at good speed, when sud
denly the second car from the engine,
swung off from the track and six cars
following piled up in indiscribable con-
fusion. Walter Short jumped as he saw
the cars 80, but was either struck by one
Of the cars in falling, or the force of the
fall was sufficient to cause instant death.
Edward Barry, the other brakeman, also
jumped and escaped with serious bruises,
and it is thought serious internal injury.
Following the wrecked train was pas
senger train, which barely escaped
wrecking also. A telegram was sent to
Walla Walla and a wrecking train was
sent ont at once. The body of Short
was brought to this city and is at Under
taker Picards. Barry was taken to St.
Mary's hospital, where he is under the
care of physicians. The cars were all
loaded with cattle shipped from Weiscr,
Idaho, to parties here, and notwit hstand-
ing the magnitude and gravity of the
accident, it was reported Sunday that
but eleven had been killed and seven
wounded. The scene of the wreck was
visited on Sunday and it is reported that
the two first cars off the track are badly
demolished, while the others are not SO
badly used up. The track for some
distance is all twisted, the rails on each
side being bent until they met in places.
