Rail AND CROssTIR

Supt B. G. Epperson of the Carolina
division at Augusta of the Central railroad
and Supt. D. D. Curran of the South west
ern division at Macon spent yesterday in
the CITY.
w. NJ. Davidson Of the Savannah, Flor
ida and Western was at White Sulphur
Springs Wednesday, where the meeting OF
the Southern Passenger Association was
held. He is now in New York.
The Telegraph says: The Macon and Biz.
mlngham railroad is not creating any COM
ment just now, but it may in the near
future. The unpaid interest on the bonds
due four months ago may not be the cause
OF any legal trouble, as has been heard; at
least, there is no such indication at present.
But the road may be sold, or leased to the
Kansas City, Fort Scott and Memphis rail-
road. This is an old story, but it is not
generally known that the president Of that
road has secured a considerable interest in
the Macon and Birmingham road.
Track will be laid at once on the twenty
five miles of the Georgia, Carolina and
Northern road from Athens west to Law
renceville, now that the bridge across the
Oconee river at Athens has been completed
The tracklaying was completed to the east
bank OF the Oconee river about the middle
of July, but the work west of the river has
been delayed until the completion of the
bridge. The road has been graded to Law
renceville, aud practically also to Atlanta,
about twenty miles southwest to Lawrence
vile. Land was purchased in Atlanta last
week for the station in that city,
The bridge of the Montgomery extension
Of the Savannah, Americus and Montgom-
cry road over the Chattahoochee river west
of Louvale has not yet been completed, and
will probably delay the opening of the ex-
tension more seriously than any other work
The bridge is to he of steel, and is being
erected by the Edge Moor bridge works.
1t will probably be completed in Septem-
Der, when it is expected that the roadhed
will be ballasted to Montgomery. The
bridge consists of four iron spans, with a
draw span 227 feet long. with rim-bearing
center. and designed to be opened by hand.
There is one through fixed span 1929 feet
long, to G, end pins adjoining the draw
span. Two deck plate girder spans, each
30 feet long. one Of each being placed at the
end of the draw span and the fixed span.
The structure is supported upon iron cylin-
der piers, and its total length is / 40 feet.

DUG FOR wAT1R, FOUND A STONE.
Remarkable Result of Kentucky
Mans Excavations.
From the 50. Louis Republic.

pTOHb tue OF LOutS fseUuUttC.
FRANKLIN KY, Aug. s.-Austin Malloy
farmer living In the northern part of
this county. Some time since he decided to
have we'll dug on his premises. The SER
vices of water witch were called into
requisition, and the turn of the infallible
peach tree switch located q spot W here a
stream of water would be struck. The we'll
diggers set to work, but had lot gone more
than six feet when they encountere ed a
stratum OF rock. This caused no surprise
as the farm lies in a rocky district and near
by is small rock-covered mountain called
Pilot Knob, cast up by some seismic con-
vulslon in forgotten ages. They went down
into the solid rock ten, twenty, thirty, forty
feet, and yet no indications that the rock
was giving out.
Mr.. Mallory is a very determined man,
and when he undertakes job he CARRIES it
to completion, be the obstacles what they
may. He instructed his men to blast away,
as he was bent on fading water if he had to
blast into China. They went ten feet
farther down, with no q developments
They were soon to be rewarded, however.
All the preparations for an unusually heavy
blast had been made, the fuse was touched
off and the men were drawn out to await
results. After the smoke of the explosion
had cleared away they looked down and
found they had struck a cave. Lights we're
let down to be sure there was no damp, and
three or four ventured. Their eyes were
da2zled with splendors rivaling in magnifi-
cence the fanciful scenes described in the
lore of the Orient.
Wandering about the explorers came
upon small river of crystal clearness in
whose waters strange looking fish disported
themselves, andswhese merry ripples had
furnished music for centuries with no other
audience than the eternal rocks. A pool of
water was also found. which, so far as they
could sound, was bottomless. On the banks
of the stream was found the wreckags of
what had once undoubtedly been an Indian
canoe drifted there, doubtless. from some
other water course aud preserved so long by
the pure atmosphere of the cave.
The adventurers explored the cave for q
considerable distance in each direction, but
found no limit or reduction of dimensions.
Mr.. Mallory designs to have the cave thor
oughly explored. 1t is unquestionably the
greatest cavern, excepting Mammoth Cave
in Kentucky.

THE RIVER AND HARBoR.

John d. Foster, who is confined in tho
Massachusetts, state prison, has invented
what is called wonderful marine engine.
Inc convict recently explained its merits.
lie said there were no &c entries used. and
that the engine was reversed without slack
ing speed by means Of button. buzz that
on large engine a treadle would be used.
The reversing was done so quickly that one
could hardly tell that the engine had been
reversed. Only three valves are used aud
they are self-acting. There is no steam
chest and no condensed steam can get
into the cylinder. Foster claimed that the
engine Is more powerful than a Cor
Ilss and that there is less ex-
pense attending it. as large percentage of
friction Is done awav with The speed il
faster than the Corliss or an oscillator One
feature about the engine is that the piston,
when detached, can be reversed. Foster
said he was at work at present on fire en-
CINE. In this engine he proposes to do away
with eccentrics, CROSSROADS, balance wheels
and shafts. A double section pump will be
used. He has sent on to Washington to the
patent Office, and it has sent for full par
tlculars. An old machinist said there
was no cylinder like it in the world. The
inventor is an uneluca5e1 ma ,, hut it is
thought he has succeeded in solving q great
problem in mechanics.
A new buoy consists Of an annular copper
TANK, with a hole In ae center, across
which is hung life chain. upon which a
person can either sit orsupport himself with
ease, while grasping the buoy. This tank
Is divided into numerous water tight COM
partments to minimize the possibility of
injury. AT the side are arranged two hol-
low rods, working upon swivel joint, the
bottom or heavier portion of these joints
being equipped with cans for the reception
of phosphide of calcium When the buoy
Is hung at the ships side the upper ends OF
these hollow rods are closed by stoppels,
which answer the double purpose of steady
ing the buoy while hung for use,
and also for preventing the
entrance of rain, ETC., from above
into the can at the lower end. When ths
buoy is cast adrift the heavy ends of the
rods swing under the water like pendulums,
lmmersing the cans containing the phos-
phide of calcium, which is Immediately
lgnlted by the entrance Of the water through
perforations for that purpose at the bottom
In the daytime discharge of smoke issues
from the upper ends of the hollow rod,
while at night this smoke becomes lumi.
nous flame that can be seen for several
miles. IL will sustain three persons. In a
late test of the buoy man jumped over
board when the ship was going ahead at
full speed. The ship was stopped the buoy
was dropped and the lifeboat lowered, and
in three minutes the man, who had reached
the buoy, was picked up and brought on
board.

WAITING FOR TIE ATTORNEYS.

Mayor McDonOugh to Take Up the
Club Question Very soon.
Because no further steps have been taken
by Mayor McDonough against the clubs
many people seem to have come to the
conclusion that the issue Is a dead one.
The conclusion, however, is very far
from being correct, Mayor McDonough
says and he hasn't by any means given up
the idea of either making the clubs pay the
liquor license or fighting the matter out in
the courts. He is simply waiting until the
return to the city Of the clubs ATTORNEYS.
Then he will summon the clubs to answer
the charge of selling liquor without a
license, and if they refuse to pay he will
Impose penalty.
From the sentence the clubs will doubt
less either appeal to council or certiorari
Qlrect to the supreme court, although the
former course is the one most likely to be
adopted. 1t is pretty generally understood
tnaV should this be done, council will sustain
the Judgment of the mayor and then the
case will go to the superior court. and from
there to the supreme court. no matter which
way the issue is decided.
Judge Falligant. being member of one
ol the clubs, will be disqualified from trying
the case unless both parties to the issue
mutually agree not TO object, which would
remove the disqualification otherwise a
louge viii have to be secured from another
circuit, because all in Savannah are cluh,
men.

markedly heavy it has been exceeded twice
In the last twenty years. In July and August,
1871. the rainfall amounted to % inches,
August alone having Is. inches. Again in
1885 there was precipitsted in these two
months q. 5 inches, IA inches falling in
August Six times in the last twenty years
the precipitation fer August has exceeded
the amount that has fallen this month up to

Habits of Young Ducks.
From Forest and Stream.


AT the period of incubation ducks make
their nests whenever the desire to deposit
first egg comes upon them. II they have
neglected to provide a suitable retreat II is
too late to mend matters. Since then | have
passed and repassed the spot. and have seen
the eggs handled frequently, but for all That
Nine. Duck does not desert her rocky
nome. Jock suggests that go to his camp,
three miles distant, for dinner. On the way
we cross an immense narshy fiat, and in the
middle of this is beautiful spring, some
eight yards in diameter. The water is fairly
blue, icy cold and no bottom can be seen at
the center, but about the edge, where the
water is from one TO ten feet deep, are
massive rocks that are Enthusiastically draped
with aquatic moses and algg, so that it
seems like looking down into fairyland. The
waters of this spring run for a quarter of q
mile, aud then sink to reappear mile
away, bursting into the creek from crevices
in the volcanic rock
The swamp is a great breeding place for
teal, and three or four ducks, with their
young broods, are swimming in the minia-
ture lake. AS we burst upon the scene one
duck flies of, but the rest stay to conceal
their young. How do they do it9 Bring
them In to shallow water, where they can
rest upon the bottom and stick their bills up
through the moss. Then the old ones swim
out into deep water and resort TO the same
tactics. We drive the ducklings from their
place Of concealment and they swim out to
their parents with half Of their bodies ex-
posed. Though the moss is just as inviting
they viii not hide where they cannot feel
bottom, and their mothers bring them back
TO shore. Young ducks can dive, but have
not the power OF remaining beneath water
for any length of time until they can make
strong fight The power Of remaining
beneath the water is acquired by practice
and is not innate.
