ago sunk on the beach at San Buena
Ventura. Cal, five feet from high

the water, and an examination OF
the we'll revealed the fact that it was
filled with young trout. They were
perfectly developed, eyes and all. and
measured about two inches in length.
Thousands OF them werc thrown out

spective cages and fired the fuses. As
soon as the fuses began to burn they

on the contrary, advanced to the
burning fuse with a firm step and un-

cracker he took his paw and began to
roll it over the floor, and when it ex-

This Is wholly wrong, for even in the

are all gathered face upward and tied
into neat package. The Govern

Every one knows how, when Sir
Walter Scott was boy, the future nov
elist was lost during thunderstorm,
and found by the alarmed searchers,
lying on his back on the hillside,
looking ut the lightning, clapping his
hands at each flash and exclaiming:
Bonnie! Bonnie!' But story Of
the same kind, with Schiller. the Ger
man poet, as the hero, is not so well
known. One day, while a very small
boy, a severe thunderstorm came on;
the boy was missed and could nowhere
be found. The whole household
searched for him; but it was not until
the storm was past that he was seen
descending from the top Of high lime
tree near the house. To the inquiries
OF his father rs to his motives, he re-
piled: IL only wished to see where
all the fire came from. IN. Y. Ledger.

Col. THOMAS NJ. GREEN writes to the
Commercal-Gazette that when he knew
Mrs. John Young Brown so years ago,
she was one of the most strikingly beau
tiful women he ever saw, "of slight and
willowy person, the step OF queen, an
exquisite complexion, eyes OF color as
uncertain as they were certainly be-
wildering." She was Miss Dixon and
she is lineal descendant of Powhatan,
the father OF the very pet of nature her
self, the flower Of her tribe, the gentle
and guileless Pocahontas. Mrs. Brown
has three daughters that have inherited
her characteristics OF mind and person
and their reign at Frankfort will add
lustre to the social annals OF the execu-
tive mansion.

THE Greensboro Messenger is the only
paper we have seen that excuses to some
extent the mean thrust that Senator
Blackburn made at Jim Mckenzie dur
ing the Louisville convention. 1t says
that Mr.. McKenzie's effort was intended
only as burlesque, and his remarks not
only reflected on the committee on reso-
lutions but the honorable body that had
appointed it. On the other hand, the
Richmond Register says; Joe Black
burn made a great mistake when he
jumped on Jim Mckenzie in the state

The custom Of closing the Departments
at Washington on the death of an ex-
cabinet member was disregarded in the
case of Judge Taft, and rule adopted
which will put check on the foolish
ness. Judge Taft having held cabinet
positions in two departments, both
would have had to close, and thereby
seriously interfered with the business OF
the government. Hereafter the shops
will only shut up when an acting cabl-
net member dies, and the clerks will not
have so much fun and frolic at the ex-
pense OF the people. General attention
was directed to this subject when IN
February last the department OF the IN
terror was closed three days in one week
on account of the deaths OF ex-secreta'
ries, and which finally brought the Gus.

A Bridge Buitt of Old rro,,.

Crossing the PeqEabuck river on South
Main street IL Terryyille iuere has Just
been completed an iron bridge, which is
unique in design and worth the atten-
ton of town officials throughout the
state, rs it is the only one of the kind
known to be in existence. With the ex-
ception Of the plank flooring and a few
comparatively small castings, the bridge
is made entirely of old railroad iron. 1t
is a truss bridge, having a span of 10
feet. The roadway is 80 feet wide, and
in addition it has a sidewalk s feet
broad. the whole surface being covered
with concrete.
The bridge rests upon stone abut-
ments, N each of which an iron rail
rests and forms the ~''mudsills." Upon
these the strings" which are also old
iron rails. are laid. Of these there are
fifteen in this bridge, as they are placed
at equal distances Of p feet apart. An
other rod or spindle" across the center,
under and at right angles with the
stringers, is supported by iron rods de-
pending from the trusses, which also
support the bridge.
A-CNNh vi WIG 81 IL ~ WV
rails. the ends Of which are fitted into
solid iron castings made of especial
shape to receive them, and meeting at
the center of the bridge are also held to
gether by similar castings through which
the iron rod extends, and braces extend
ing on either side to the end of the spindle
give strength as we'll as rigidity to the
structure. Heavy plank covered with
a concrete pavement forms the floor of
the structure.
The idea of using old railroad iron for
town bridges was conceived by Jason G.
Fem, of the board of selectmen, who
built the first one of this character three
years ago and has designed and 0
structed several more since that time, in
each of which he has made improve
ments. The one just finished, under his
personal supervision, is the most perfect
and combines beauty, strength and
cheapness. 1t is believed that these
bridges can be built at no greater cost
thar substantial wooden bridges and
their durability is of course much
greater.-Hartford Courant.
