AR.marknb,e tngineering Feat

One of the most remarkable engi-
neering feats is reported to have been
achieved in China in the face Of extra
ordinary physical dificulties-namely,.
the successful stretching of steel wire
cable of seven strands across the river
Human, this feat having been accom-
plished by the Danish engineer De-
iinde, assisted only by unskilled native
labor. The cable extends between two
points at distance OF 4, 700 feet apart,
the height of the first support being
about 470 feet above the present level of
the river and the second about 74O feet.
The cable in question is said to be the
longest in the world, with single ex-
ception-namely, the cable across tho
Kistnah, measuring some 500 feet.

New York sun

Those who visit the parks any sunny
afternoon see the baby-carriages in
which the little ones lie with upturned
faces, their eyes often exposed to the
glazing sunlight. 1t is proper that
warning should be given Of the dangers
of this habit. There is no doubt that
such exposure is apt to be injurious to
the eyesight Of the babies, and mothers
should see TO it that proper shades arc
put at the head OF the carriages which
the nurses trundle through the parka
Give the infants plenty of fresh air, but
guard their delicate eyes for service
through life.

Railroad Gossip


A prominent local railroad man who has
Just returned from Chicago furnishes some
new features IN connection with the official
roster of the Union Pacific. He states that
while in Chicago during a conversation with
several railway officials of that city, one of
them spoke up and said that he had but u
few moments before had consultation with
a Bostonian who SAID positively that Charles
Francis Adams would be reelected presi-
dent of the Union Pacific at its annual stock
holders-directors meeting, April "a, With
reference TO the unsettled condition of
affairs at Omaha and the friction which is
known TO exist among local officials Of the
Union Pacific, il was said that the re-elec-
tlon OF MIR. Adams amounted to Thomas l..
Kimball's resignation. MIR. Kimbau has
since the advent of MIR. Adams held his high
position in the councils of the Union Pacific,
it is said, by sheer force of
his superior attainments as
preiudices OF Adams and his friends. The
proteges of Adams among ths local officials
here have done all they could to make il IN
comfortable for Mr.. Klmball, and some of
them have gone out of their Way to offer him
open affronts- 1t is said that certain OF these
young officials have gone so far as to ask Mr..
Kimball to name persons for good positions
in their departments, solely to enable them
TO appoint somebody else whom they knew
would be distasteful to Mr.. kimball- IL is
possibility get into the control of the New
York faction, Kimball would at once be put
into position which would be something
more than nominal chief clerkship, and
that he would make such a scattering in Ger
tain circles as would make a score of men
dizzy. This is furnished by an individual
who claims that the statements are true
But as regards the resignation OF MIR. kim
Dall, it is a matter of no secret that the back
bone Of the Union Pacific is vested in him.
Concerning the matter another official said
''The Union Pacific dare not release Mr.
KimbalL There are three men connected
with the Union Pacific that if taken away
would throw the Union Pacific into bank
ruptcy- Who are theyi Kimball, Melleu
and Dickinson. What would become of the
Union Pacific if Mellen and KImbali associ-
ated themselves with a competitive hnei
The result would be that the traffic of the
Union Pacific would be prostrated Then
take Dickinson away and the Union Pacific
is left without an operating man. Remember
am speaking OF what know to be the Case
Mark nay words, Adams appreciates a good
man too well 70 stand back and allow him TO

enger train on the Union Paciflc,' said a
well known engineer ''he always claimed
that his engine foreshadowed danger. If an
open switch, he declared that the engine
would shiver as would person with a chill,
and if not clear track be maintained that
his engine foresha6owed this by sligh tly
stacking up of its own accord. Queer wasn't
it? but Dave Wetherby always maintained
that he was sincere. OF course railway men,
and especially engineers, with continued
stition more or less and Dave was no excep-
stitious indications averted wreck, but his
continually being on the alert for accidents
had great deal to do with
IT. Two weeks before Dave quit the
road hls fireman told me that he was rest
less ali the time on the road, and on two diff
ferent occasions, shortly after starting out,
stated that his old girl was kicking Up in
the traces and wreck was certain. This
was kept up, and finally Wetherby asked for
a vacation, and he needed it, for in his bed
or at his post he foresaw danger. Well, sir,
the very next day his old machine was
smashed into scrap iron just a trifie out from
Lincoln. Did you know Cotterell, a fellow
with one arm and one leg gone, that used to
flag here about nine years agol He was on
that engine and came near being killed. The
fireman escaped by jumping and the accident
was front end collision with an east-bound
freight. W5atherby's superstition, you see,
was not all unfounded. At any rate he
never returned TO his work, and if am not
mistaken he is in business at Hastings or
some OF those towns out on the line"

Majors opposed the amendment. He did

Baker favored increasing the salaries He
thoughtthat district judges are the poorest

A Modern Woman.

Nelo for. World.
She's not more than three and twenty,
She has lovers by the plenty,
And her style is very English, don't yer

Her mind is full OF Browning,
While her voice is really charming
When she recites THE Raven from Edgar
Allen Poe.
Her views iconocIastic
Make her conscience quite elastic.
WherewIth 70 discourse on the Thusness of
the That
She describes the one grand passion,
A Ia Madamoisellc Riyes fashion,
And writes poetry like Swinburne, quite
as pat.
Her mental ruminations,
CogiLaticns and gyrations,
She dissertates in a most melodious voice:
In q language most emphatic,
A trifie emblematic,
OF time when morals, like the people,
weren't SO choice,
She is versed on law and LATIN,
Can paint on silk and satin,
And knows all the 'logies underneath the
sun;
She can make pate de foie gras,
And quote 70 you from GIL Bias
With deftness and preciseness. both in one.
She read Robert Elsmere" lately
And now says, quite sedately,
There is no Sweet Ultimately when our race
Is run:
All individuality,
With intellectually,
Proves in veritas the modern woman's como.

A Remedy For Cattle Bots.

Prof. Lawrence Bruner, entomologist
at the Nebraska State university, gives
the following receipt in the Western
Stockman for warbles or the skin bot in
cattle:
After an opening has been effected
by the grub the application Of few
drops Of kerosene, or dilute carbolic
acid, or the plentiful snearing of the
part infested with any kind of soft
grease will kill the intruder. Turpen-
tine will also have like effect. In
lieu OF these the grub can be elected by
pressure and destroyed, The applica-
ton of these lotions when the eggs are
first laid, and before the young grubs
are hatched or have effected an en-
trance, will also usually be an efcctual
remedy. Later, in winter and before
the sore opens, it is a difficult matter TO
reach them, for anything OF sufficient
penetrating poser II applied would also
injure the animal.
