A Railroad Across the Atlantic

A railroad across the Atlantic is on
the list of possibilities for future achiev-
ment Of science. Many years ago
civil engineer read paper before the
French Academy suggesting a subma-
rine railway. His theory was that at
certain dep h of the ocean--a hundred
fathom or more far below any agitation
from surface storms, the water is Of
such a density that nothing in tabular
form, whatever the weight, can possibly
sink. Having thus made foundation
in the very bowels of old Neptune, he
proposes to sink continuous line of i'm
mense iron tubes-after the manner Of
cable laying--in which double track
could be laid between Cape Clear, Ire
land and Cape RAcs..~ ~. M. !,
aud thus send traiGs booming through
the tube to the CONSERVATION of the sea
serpent and the normal terror Of the big
and little fishes The only serious OBJ
lection this learned academician could
see to the successful termination of this
widest Of all deep sea schemes was the
suiToeadng effects of the noke from en-
gincs used in his submarine railway
tube; if this could be overcome, he said,
then the grand oceanic railroad only re-
1mred the ne,e 'sary construction capital.
In the Ugh. Of presen. day science,
when electricity is looked upon as the
tandiest as well as the most unique of
all motive force, why may we not rea-
sonabiy expect the French Academy TO
demonstrate the practicability of their
learned fellows views? Then, again,
the kecly mortar lacks only one turn of
being a success. to say nothing of the
perpetual motion machines now incubat
inn in this and other cities of the United
States. All Of his scientific objections
in regard to smoke having been over
come let US call on the French to build
their water suspended oceanic railway in
ii ne for the great Worlds Fair in 1898
For downright "airuess' of conception
this Atlantic raffw y scheme beats VI
yernard's ST. Anne's bridge across the
English Channel sll hollow, and for Wis
ionary musings commend US to French
sayant every time. 81. Louis Repabiic
