REoPENING THE TILLY FOSTER MINE.
completed will be one of the most imposing
In America There is about it something Of
the appearance of the suspension bridge
which arises from the curves of its super
structure.
The ability of engineers of the present day
to remove earth rapidly is well illustrated in
the reopening Of the TiIley Foster mine,
about fifty miles from New York, on the
New York and Harlem railroad The ore
contained in this mine is very valuable, and
has been largely used in the production of
Bessemer pig, but owing to an everything
stratum there was great difficulty in mining.
In order to support the roof, largo quantities
of the ore had TO be left in position. Con-
crete pillars were tried, but found liable to be
crushed. All plans having failed it was at
last determined to remove the super strata
and expose the ore.
The work was commenced two years ago,
in June, 1887, and has since been steadily
pushed forward. Up TO March, 1889, $50, 900
cubic yards Of material were taken out
There is now great hole 450 feet long, 500
feet wide and 10 feet deep. Of the material
removed there have been $1,000 cubic yards
OF rock in which ore was mixed, but this is
small compared with what must follow, for
there are still $50, 0o0 cubic yards of rock TO

THAT deaf nutes can successfully manage

Is far ahead Of any other country in the
world.
"a great step forward in the education Of
deaf mutes,n continued Professor Draper,
''was made when this national college for
deaf mutes was organized by DR.. Edward III.
Gallaudet, son Of the Rev. Thomas e GallaI-
Diet, twenty five years ago. To this day it is
the only deaf mute college in the world, all
the other institutions being, primary schools.
The experience Of quarter Of century In
the progress Of this college has fully demon
strated the ability of deaf mutes to master
the arts and sciences. More than 800 young
bachelor OF arts has been conferred on seven
ty-five graduates, of bachelor of science on
eight, Of bachelor OF philosopy on six, and
master Of arts and sciences on ten.
This college has quickened and purified
all the currents of thought and endeavor IN
the deaf world. More than half hundred
of our graduates have engaged in teaching;
one has entered the ministry; four have be-
come editors and publishers Of newspapers;
twelve have entered the civil service Of the
government; two have become accomplished
architects; one has been repeatedly elected
recorder Of deeds In southern city; one has
become eminent as a practical chemist and
assayer; two have become professors In the
faculty of the college; some have gone into
mercantile and other offices; some have I'M
dertaken business on their own account,
while not few have chosen agricultural and
mechanical pursuits, il which the advantages
of thorough mental training will give them q
superiority over those not so well equipped
Indeed, deaf mute education has made such
progress that the world is learning 70 look
upon all deaf mutes as men and women of
culture-culture which does them infinite Gre
dit, because acquired in the face of natural
difficulties apparently insurmountable.
Scores Of graduates of this college are
now in the midst of careers OF great useful
ness and success, though the world hears
little of them. a few have gained something
akin TO renown. Mr. j. E. Parkinson, grad

About the middle of the present century,
when the first great triumphs of engineering

lea, they attracted great attention. But to-
day chasms and rivers are bridged, precipices
are assembled by steam, the Atlantic is crossed

accept each new work as matter of course
For years those accustomed to travel over
the "Shore Line" railroad between Boston
and New York have looked forward while
on the road to an agreeable change at the
crossing of the Thames river at New London,
Conn, where trains have been put on ferry
boat and 1oated across. A bridge is about
being finished at this crossing, and the "Gro-
ton ferry" will soon be a thing of the past.
What matters it to say that the draw" Of
this bridge is the largest in the worldl The
expectant American public will look for
larger one somewhere else almost before the

THE SITUATION IN HELENA.

Nothing of accOunt occurred yester-
day i'm Helena. The regular house Of
representatives fixed its permanent or
g%anization and told the Governor il was
ready to ga ahead with business. The
iron hall contingent was plainly in
formed by Governor Tool that he had
no use for il. and the members had an
interesting discussion over the ques-
ton Of a chaplain. who very properly
declined to act.
There is no telling how long the
present muddle may continue. The
Governor of Montana has clearly de
lined his position. and we mistake the

1t may be that the iron hall contln-
gent will stick it out for 80 days. In
that case the legislature will die by

FIRE.

With the fire in the Anaconda mine
fully under control, none of the suspic-
ions about a general shut down in this
city have warrant. The smelters in this
city are in operation, as usual. The
concentration came To u staudstili yes
terday. but the product of this depart
ment now on hand is ample to keep the
smelters in operation for some days to
come.
Ii is the opinion of superintendent
Carroll that the tire in the mine was
brought unde full control saturday af-
ternoon. and active operations have
been taken to put the levels of the st.
Lawrence and the Anaconda in condi-
ton for "A resumption of work without
delay. of course, several days must
elapse before these mines can be
actively operated again. but this inter
ruption is trifing i'll comparison with
what might a resulted if Saturdays
fire had managed to get sway in the
Anaconda shaft.
Under the circumstances. our people
have occasion for congratulation rather
than anxiety, since the incidental check
to full hours at the works here is of
account compared with the dis
tress that might ave resulted. had the
disaster in Butte been AS sweeping as
was at first reported.
