to devote TO that purpose all the salary
he received from the public treasury
after that date, His determination was
made public, and soon thereafter Post

About the middle Of the present century,
when the first great triunphs Of engineering
skill which mark the age took place in Amer

day chasms and rivers are bridged, precipices
are assembled by steam, the Atlantic is crossed

For years those accustomed to travel over
tho "Shore Limo" railroad between Boston

on the road to an agreeable change at the
crossing Of the Thames river at New London,
Conn, where trains have been put Oh ferry
boat and foated across. A bridge Is about
being finished at this crossing, and tho Gro

What matters it to say that the "draw" Of

completed will be one Of the most imposing
in America There is about it something Of
the appearance of tho suspension bridge
which arises from tho curves OF its super
structure
The ability of engineers of tho present day
to remove earth rapidly is well il lstrated in
the rcopening Of tho Tilley 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 i'll the production OF
Besscmcr pig, but owing to M orerlying
stratum there was great difficulty i'll mining.
In order to support the roof, lnrge quantities
OF the ore h,ui to be left in position. Con
crete pillars were tried, but found liable to be
crushed AL plans having failed it was at
last determined to remove the super strata
and expose the ore.
Tho work WIS commenced two years uSo
i'll June, 1887, and has since been steadily
pushed forward. Up to March, 1889, .So, 600
cubic yards Of mnterial were taken out.
There is now great hole $50 feet long, 800
feet wide and TO feet deep. OF tho material
removed there have been 5000 cubic yards
Of rock in which ore was mixed but this is

WHERE FORT PITCHER HAD BREN.
vcyed the place where their fort had
been, there was not one Of them who had
sufficient command of himself to write a
report of what had happened. They
gazed at the bare, staring flatness of the
shorn bluff. and they looked at each other.
This was not war. 1t was something
supernatural. awful They were not
frightened they were oppressed and ap-
pallcd. But the military discipline OF
their minds soon exertcd its force, and
orief account of the terrific event was
transmitted to the authorities, and Sergt.

guard house,
No one approached the vicinity of the
bluff where the fort had stood, for danger
might not be over; but every pocsible
point Of observation within safe dis
tancc was soon crowded with anxious
and terrified observers. A feeling of awe
was noticeable everywhere. If people
could have had a tangible idea OF what
had occurred, it would have been differ

be done it would not be long before these
crafty fellows would occupy the fort,
and with its great guns turned inland,
would hold the city at their mercy.
There could be no greater insult to sol
dcr than to suppose that he could be
gulled by q trick like this.
No thought of actual danger entered
the mind of the commandunt. 1t had
been easy enough to sink a great torpedo
in the harbor, and the unguarded bluffs
of Fort Pitcher offered every opportu-
nity to the scoundrels, who may have
worked at their mines through the nights

inpossibiity; its guarded outposts pre-
vented any such method of attack. At

Nothing would please him better than
that those ark like ships in the offihs
should come near enough for an artillery
fight. 4 few tons of solid shot and shell
dropped on top of them might be very
conclusive answer to their impudent de-
mands.
The letter from the syndicate, together
with his own convictions on the subject,
wero communicated by the commandant
to the military authorities of tho port,

edIy the most successful jury lawyer Of this
era, his fame as far as it is lasting will rest
upon his early and efficient support of Abra-

the speech In convention putting Abraham
Lincoln in nomination, and twenty-eight
years later i'll tho same city did the same
service for Judge Walter Q. Gresham.

II the solution Of problems of Transports
tion by land or sea, of methods Of delving in
to the earth, have been solved, one great d.
vision In mechanics is still the vast unknown
it has always been. Wo are practically no
nearer navigating tho air than VIC have been
for century or more. But the restlessness
Of the inventor shows itself as conspicuously
in this field Us In tho others. Every year
one or more new contrivances with which to
fly through tho air arc brought out, and
some OF them are vFy ingenious. But
thus far none have solved the prob
lem. How mocking must be q little sparrow
to one of these Investigators, which from

held In framework, over which Is the Sec

posed to the action OF the wind, and with It's
edges attached to the framework. There is

contains motive power for operating side
wings and central wings The steering de-
vice is located in the front Of the basket. 1t
consists Of vertical wing mounted to swing
and a disk wing pivoted on the vertical wing,
ropes extending into the basket for operating
the wings.
A suction wheel Is mounted above the
basket and at its rear, the power being trans
mitted through friction wheel In the
