THEGuNBOAT CONCORD.
The new gunboat Concord IL undergoing
her Official trials on Long Island Sound.
| The test to which the Concord il submitted
is an exceedingly severe one. The ma
! chinery must develop 3,lO0 horse power as
"A means for a fOur-h0urs' run. She receives
her forced draught under the CRATE bars,
and Is the fret vessel OF the new navy to be
so fitted. The forward doors must be kept
| closed as much as possible, for every time
| they are opened neatly arranged deyice
shuts of the draught In each corresponding
furnace. But for this device the opening OF
the door would cause the blast TO ny into
the iire-rooms.
ACADEMY OF MEDICINE,
The formal opening OF the New York
Academy of Medicine in west forty-third
street near Fifth avenue to-day recOunts
many interesting details incidental to its
CONSTRUCTION. The cornerstone Of this
magnificent edifice was laid by Grover
Cleveland on October 2, lsso. The cost Of
the whole establishment, amounting to some
$50, 900, has boon provided for by its mem-
bers aud their individual friends without
calling on State or municipal treasures Tor
dollar. Equally remarkable Is the fact that
the expense OF the ground on which the
building is erected has been paid up i'm
cash, and the indebtness OF $50, 900 tor hirn-
shings is held in the form OF obligations
due to the fellows. There Is no mortgage
whatever on the building or its belongings.
