This morning when the hundreds
Of scholars came to the East Salem
school they were notified that they
could return home, as the whole base
ment of the building was flooded
with water, which made il impossible
for the janltor to keep fires, or tn e
children to gain admittance to
the water closets. The floor is Gov =
cred with water from 9 to 10 inches
deep and still rising. This is caused
from the sewer being choked up and
unable to carry the waste water that
fell from the roof. Consequently
no school will be held until the
matter is remedied and the floor
thoroughly dried for fear of sickness.
Due notice will be given when
school resumes
EASEMENTS FLOODED.
A general cry of submerged cell
lars aud easements is going up all
over the city. Water is standing in
most of them from few inches to
three foot deep.

SAN ANTONIO is good neutral ground
on which to hold the state democratic
convention. This section of the state
has no gubernarorial candidates; the
best accommodations possessed by
any city in Texas for the convention
are right here. Good hotels, q large
wigwam, three breweries. and a city
administration that will make it pleas
ant for the democracy. No flies on
San Antonio. Come and see how
much bigger the Alamo city is than
any of her rivals.

SAN ANTONIO weather is nothing to
be stuck on this winter, but it holds
over every other section OF the country
of which the wires inform US. The
drizzle of this week is not very COM
Portable but it gets away with big
Dakota blizzard, showed up trains
and Missouri cyclones by big ma
jority. Even the waterspouts that
fall in other sections o. Tex - are
merely subdued showers in this part
of the national vineyard. Verify,
the lines have fallen 10 US in pleasant
places and we have goodly heri-
tage. La grippe loses his seve y
and only mild sneezes echo through
the treeses which sway in the breeses
of the springlike air. Few have
shaky kneeses, fewer still have
wheezes, though influenza seizes
people everywhere.

A WONDERFUL BRIDGE.

modern engineering skill Is that dis
played in the successful completion
of the Forth railway bridge. This
structure, which is now ready
for travel, bridges the Firth of Forth
and gives continuous all rail commu-
nicatlon between Edinhurg and Dun
dee. 1t is now almost eight years
since the plans for this structure
were adopted and the engineering
world astonished al the proposed at
tempt to construct bridge with cen
ter spans lacking only fifty feet of
full third of mile each. There is a
clear Roadway of $50 feet for dis
lance of 500 feet under each center
span. The extreme height of the
structure Is 452 feet of which, 81 feet
are below the high water level. 1t Is
built upon the cantilever plan, and
has $1,000 tons of steel in the super
structure and 100000 cublo yards of
masonry and concrete in the founda.
ton and piers. Its extreme length is
1926 feet, considerably over a
mile and a half. 1t has been
constructed to carry rolling load of
over 1000 tons, besides its own weight
and the wind pressure which Is es-
timated at fifty-six pounds to the
square foot; the weight on the main
spans from this source being about
5000 tons. SiemeHs-Martin bjeel ISIS
used in the work and that surect tot
tension bears a strain of thlGy-t wo
tons to the square inch, that subject
to compression strain of thirty-eight
tons to the square inch. Strips one
and half inch wide bind cold around
a bar twice their thickness. The riv-
ct steel bears a strain of thirty tons to
the square inch. Some idea of the
height of the bridge may be CLEANED
from comparison. Only five struct-
ures in the old world are higher than
this bridge, which, above the water,
is two feet higher than Saint PauPs,
in London. The structures that rise
higher than the bridge are: Strass-
burg Cathedral, Rouen Cathedral, Co.
logne Cathedral, the great Pyramid,
and old st. Paul's, London. These
figures are taken from the Scien tific
American which for several years has
from time to time given illustr atoms
and descriptions of the work and Its
progress. The work itself is without
doubt one of the boldest engineering
of modern times.
The bridge across the Ohio at Cairo
is even longer than this having a total
length of 10 $50, more than 1000 feet
longer, but it's greatest span SIS feet
dwIndles into insignificance beside
the LILO feet spans of the Forth
bridge. These bridges are des ined o
solvo the tunnel question III many
places, the work at New York and
Detroit not giving any practical en-
enlargement to tunneling schemes.
When it is found practicable to con-
struct bridges, capable of sustaining
the heaviest weight, with spans of
over 700 feet, there is practically an
end to all objections arising from the
distractions which such structures
give to navigation.

Ballot Reform and Fat Men.

The attention of the ballot reformers
of New York and other States, is called
to fatal defect in the new box-stall
voting plan, tried this fall for the first
time in Michigan. A contingency has
risen IN its operation which should be
remeOled by other states contemplating
the adoption of such 2 system. The
booth INTO which every citizen must
secrete himself while preparing ms bal
lot, proved 20 be inadequate for the ex-
treme obesity OF one of Bay City's most
prominent citizens, and he lost his vote.
No stall built according to plans and
spec ticatlons IN the bill, was large
enough to admit his 40 pounds of adj
pose tissue, margarine, etc, etc. The
Bay City man will not allow the matter
to rest, and has brought suit in a Mich
igan court for damages. The bench
viii be called upon to settle case
where there are no precedents. and the
subtle manner OF DISTINGUISHING obese
men has never before been put in ac-
tive operation.
1t : of the utmost importance for
New York to take cognizance of this
point, and provide special booths for

OFFICIAL PAPER or THE CITY.
BOARD or oASvAssERs.

The Board Of Canyassers IN this
county, IN assuming 70 pass upon the
legality OF the votes cast for Mr.. May
naTd, as Representative in the Leglsla-
ture, clearly uznsgressed their lawful
authority. Aswas said n the case Of
the Attorney General VS.. the Board of
Canvassers Of Iron County, "a Mich,
COZ: ''They have no right to raise out
AIDE issues 20 decide themselves, or to
ask 70 decide. When they have figured
up the returns exactly as handed over
10 them, they have completed their
taak and exhausted their powers.
10 would be worse than absurd
10 allow Board OF Canvassers to de-
feat the popular will and destroy an
election by refusing or neglecting to do
what the law requires them to do. They
may bring themselves within the pun
ishment of the law by such misconduct,
but they cannot destroy the vote"
The TELEGRAM-HERALD thinks that
the issue in Mr.. Maynard's case in the
Supreme court should be made square
ly and solely upon the action of the
Board OF Canvassers, and that they
ought 10 be brought TO understand that
they are not law unto themselves IN
opposition 10 the viii Of the people, but
are only the creatures of the law TO
legally declare the viii of She people as
expressed at the ballot box, and that
any INVASION there will not be tolerated
