were sunk on both sides Of the river in
1887. The St. Clair Tunnel Company
was formed In the year 1886.
This great work became a necessity
by reason Of the growth Of traffic over
the Grand Trunk Railway of Canada,
the Chicago and Grand Trunk, the De-
troit, Grand Haven and Milwaukee, and
the Toledo, Saginaw and MuskegOn
Railroads. The steam car ferry now in
operation at this point was found in
adequate and also unreliable during q
portion OF the year by reason of the
power Of the currents (eight miles an
hour) and the ice in the river. A bridge
was impracticable, owing to the low
level of both shores and the great
amount of shipping traffic of large
dimensions.
The walls Of the tunnel, as indicated
in our smallest illustration, are formed
OF thirteen cast-iron segments and key.
These segments are cast with thirty-two
holes In them, twelve in each side flange
and four in each end. The inside
diameter Of the tunnel is twenty feet
The idea Of substituting these seq
ments for brick work was suggested
by Mr.. Joseph Hobson, Of Hamilton,
Ont, the chief engineer Of the st. Clair
Tunnel Company, and also chief engineer
Of the Great Western Division Of the
Grand Trunk Railway. Mr.. Thomas
Murphy, Of New York, was the superin-
fendent Of excavation. The mechanical
department on both sides Of the river is
under the charge Of Mr.. j. T. Eames,
the engineer who invented the apparatus
for lowering the stupendous shields into
their place, and also a system of cocks
on the twenty-four hydraulic jacks sur
rounding the shield, whereby two men
can do the work Of twenty-four. By the
simple opening Of q valve, the direction
Of the shield could be shifted so as to
follow the engineers level.
Sir Joseph Hickson at q meeting of the
directors some time since expressed the
conviction that the tunnel would be COM
pleted for traffic within eighteen months.
The subsequent rate Of progress has SO
far exceeded the most sanguine expecta-
tions and has 30 completely beaten the
record of all former similar works that
the talk now is that the travelling public
may be inspecting the interior of this
tunnel by the end of the year.
The shield to which the singular secur-
fly As we'll as the rspidity of this piece of
tunneling Is duo Is the invention of Mr..
Alfred e. Beach, of New York.
The mode Of operating this piece Of
machinery, which has revolutionized the
art of river tunneling, is graphically

rams at equal distances around the
shield. These rams are eight inches in
diameter and have . stroke Of twenty
four incheA
The profile illustration will give a
popular understanding of the proper
tions Of the different sections Of this
tunnel, OF the difficulties overcome in its
completion and Of the magnitude Of the
work. From the American cutting to
the rivers edge is 800 feet; from the
Canadian cutting, 1850 feet; under the
river, $500. The subterranean ap-
proaches will be on the Canadian side
Ia, 900 feet, on the Michigan side 5000
feet For the tunnel proper 9, ,196, 400
feet Of soil have been excavated. The
cast iron lining has required IS, ,962, 500
pounds. There have been used in secur-
ing this lining s59, ,242 bolts.
The tunnel will drain itself of the sur
face water entering by the approaches
into an intercepting tunnel or vertical
shaft 122 feet in depth, extending to bed
rock, which is reached at that point
This we'll will be cleared by the highest
pumping engine Of its kind in existence.
1t will be over one hundred feet in
height. The pump of the engine will be
on the bottom of the tunnel, while the
cylinders will be on the level Of the
ground.
The tunnel at present is dirty with clay
and silt. admitted during the work Of
excavation. After being cleaned It is to
be treated with preparation to prevent
rusting. The lower third Of the tube is
to be lined with brick and cement to
prevent deterioration Of the casing by
the brine that leaks from meat cars.
One railway track will be planked on
both sides. The ties will be of iron, con-
forming in their curve ~ the bottom of
the tunnel.

call the impressions Of that night, the
first moments of my entering Langdals
Grange!
The warmth, the lights, the mellow
coloring, the atmosphere Of truly English
comfort that pervaded the old Grange de-
lighted me. Besides, the place was mine.
Surely it was not an unpardonable pride
that caused me to rejoice in the sense Of
possession.
Nv wife had been very still and silent
during the latter part Of the journey. I
turned to her now, and out of the fullness
of my heart spoke. To her who Was to
be the presiding genius Of this home, I
pictured our future life Of love, of mutual
confidence, Of quiet country pleasures
an idyllic life, it seemed to me.
But broke off suddenly in the midst
of my rhapsody. for felt her shiver. Her
face had psled and wore an impassive
look: apparently she had not heard my
words.

ut once-at once!"
Cut to the heart by her lack of sympa-
thy, rose and rang the bell. Request
Miss Lynton to come here, I said to the
servant who appeared, and in q few Sec
onds Edna came.
She looked inquiringly at both Of us; .
frightened, startled expression crossed her
face as her eyes and Georgie's met. My
wife ran to her. took her hand, and bend
ing forward whispered in her ear, kissing
her warmly. Then turning round to me:
1t is late, Jack, she said. You will.
am sure, excuse me. I want to be with
Edna. Goodnight
Amazement and anger for the moment
struck me dumb. My next impulse was
to protest fercely against this extraordi-
nary proceeding on my wifeis part, but
ultimately pride came to my aid.
Speechless strode to the door and
held it open. and waited while Edna ap.
pesred to be demonstrating in . low tone
with my wife. It was useless, however,
and both passed out together. As they
did SO, Georges looks were sverted, but
I knew that Edna raised those soft i'm

outside diameter is 21 feet. 1t is the
first cast-iron tunnel Of its kind. 1t has

similar work, one broken leg being the
extent Of tho accidents, excepting two

WASHINGTON d. C., October A.-The
total population of the state of Kansas
was announced by the Census Office to-
day the count of the shedules of the
Fourth Supervisors District being COM
pleted. This district, which in
cludes thirty-eight counties in the
southwestern part of the State, contains
29S,O79 inhabitants, thus giving the
State total population of 1.423.4S5.
These counties had in 1880 a pOpula-
tion of 155, ,075, and they have gained
l43,OO4, or 92.22 per cent. The average
increase of the whole State has been
much less than this. The State con-
tained 996O96 inhabitants ten years
ago, and it has therefore gained 427 ,3S9
or at the rate of 1921 per cent. 1t will
be observed that more than one-third
of the total gain has been in the south
western quarter of the State, and the
rate of increase has been higher in
these counties than in those of
the other districts. The following
is the population of the Fourth District
by counties:

portrayed by the main illustration accom-
panying this description.
The shield which is operated simulta-
neously from each end Of the tunneling,
consists Of strong cylinder somewhat
resembling huge barrel with both heads
removed. The front end Of the cylinder
is sharpened, 30 IS to have . cutting edge
to enter the earth. The rear end of the
cylinder for length Of two feet or SO is
made quite thin and is called the hood.
Arranged around the main walls of the
cylinder and longitudinal Herewith are
q series OF hydraulic jacks, all operated
from . common pump. each jack having
cocks whereby It may be cut off from the
pump Whenever desired.
Within the shields are vertical and
horizontal braces and shelves. When at
work the iron plates or the masonry Of
which the tunnel is composed are first
built mp within the thin hood of the
shield; the hydraulic jacks are then made
to press against the end Of the tunnel
plates Or masonry, which has the effect
to push the shield ahead into the earth
for . distance equal to the length of the
pistons Of the Jacks, say two feet or not
quite the length Of the hood, and rs the
front of the shield dig out and carry back
the earth through the shield. By the
advance Of the shield, the hood, within
which the iron or masonry tunnel is
built, Il drawn partly of from and ahead
of the constructed tunnel, thus leaving
the hood empty. The pistons Of the hy-
draulic jacks are then showed back into
their cyhnders, and . new section of

the tunnel Is always within and covered

which are built up to thickness Of two
