The BROOKLYN Bridge Gable.

Proof of the degree of dependence
of the public upon the slender wire
rope known as the bridge cable has
been more than once afforded. Per-
haps the sustaining power of a rope
has never been more carefully watch
ed Upon the faintest indication of
weakness in any part a new piece is
put in, and when the rope has been
worn until it is generally reduced the
whole is removed and sold A relief
cable is kept constantly in place ready
to be rugged at an hours notice, and a
brand new one, with its more than
two miles of length wound about an
enormous drum, is kept all the time on
the dock below the Brooklyn end of
the structure One end of it is carried
up to the bridge and fastened there, SO
that the briefest possible time may be
required in an emergency in stretch
ing it. An interesting fact in connec
ton with the use of new cables on the
bridge is that after a fortnight's use
their length increases from seventy
five to one hundred feet. The cause
of this is mainly the compression of
the cable, which has a hemp center,
by the grips, thus occasioning the
eIongation. When the cable gets too
long a piece is cut out and the ends
spliced. A new cable costs s., OOO.-

Things One Cannot Move.

Does Any One KnowP

Does any one know what's in your heart and mine
The sorrow and song,
The demon Of sin and The angel divine,
The right and the wrong;
The dread of the darkness. the love of the day,
The ebb and the flow
ofnope and of doubt forever and aye,
Does any one know?
Does any one dream of the love that is yours,
The heart that is mine;
The depth and the width the cup which each
pOurs
Ofrichest red wine;
OF the hate that is dark as the midnight of grief
The anguish and woe
The doubt clouds of halting and blind unbelief.
Does any one know?
Docs any one see what we have in the heart
To love and to hate;
OF li,e's every motive an intricate par,
of chance and of fate;
The mem-ry OF kisses, of starlight of songs,
Ofroses and snow,
OF women's sweet eyes, Ofprayers and of wrongs,
Does any one know:
Does any one hearken to music of bells,
And the sigh of the sea,
And the whisper of woodlands that murmurs and
swels
For you and for me;
The sound of fond voices that ever respond,
In tones soft and low,
To the prayer we are breathing into the beyond,
Does any one know:

1t is hard to become a real old fash
Toned Baptist in New York nowadays
The running streams in which it used
to be necessary to be baptized are all
monopolized within the city by unbe-
levers, who look with disfavor upon
the idea of their property being
tramped over by Sunday crowds, even
of baptizers. The heads of the
churches that stick to the old form of
baptism, which are now chiefly among
the colored people, find it every year
more difficult to find a place at which
to hold their annual baptizing.
Churches down town have to take
their converts to Harlem to find
place in which to immerse them, and
they must hire the grounds at that
New York Sun.

Another dealer said that orange
growing in Florida was not the bonan
"a that it had been said to be, unless
the groves were in hummock lands
which are adapted to its culture. The
Florida grower could not look for
more than S1.75 a box on an average
for his fruit Out of this he had to
pay so cents box freight to market,
so cents for picking and packing,
while the cost of growing, including
the fertilizing process, brought him
down to profit of only about so cents
a box. A bad year would wipe out two
years profits. But the business was
growing. There were in Florida about
10, 900 growers. The capital invested
was from $50, ooo,o 900 to SIS, 1000, 900:
Three years ago there were produced
l,250, 900 boxes, two seasons ago, g.
loo, 0h0, and in 1859 about 1880, 900

"For my heart beats loud and fast,
But surely in the far, far distance
1 can hear a sound at lat"
sit is only the reapers singing,
As they carry home their sheaves;
And the evening breeze has risen
And rustles the dying leaves"

Calmly still she strove to speak,
Yet her voice grew faint and trembling
And the red flushed in her cheek.

Below now their work is done,
And they laugh that their eyes hire dazzled
BY the rays of the setting sun"
Fainter grew her voice and weaker,
As with anxious eyes she cried:
down the avenue of chestnuts
/ can hear a hOrseman ride"
II WAS only the deer that were feeding
In herd on the clover grass,
They were startled, and fled to the thicket
As they the reapers pass.
Now the night arose in silence,
Birds lay in their leafy nest,
And the deer crouched in the forest
And the children were at rest.
There was only sound of weeping
From watchers around bed,
But rest to the weary spirit,
Peace to the quiet dead.
