HIGHEST IN THE WORLD.
The Southern Pacific Bridge Spanning
the Peoos River.

Special to the Gazette.
SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Feb 10-A resident
at Viaduct, which is the little canvas town
located at the western end of the high
bridge with which the Southern Pacific
railway is spanning the Pecos river, SAYS
that the two divisions Of the bridge viii be
joined next week. It's altitude is 3S7 feet,
making it the highest structure of its kind
in the world.
Steve Brodie, the bridge-jumper, of New
York, has written, stating that If the depth
of water IS sufficient, he win make the leap
as soon as the bridge is finished. The Pecos
at that point is about seventy-five yards
wide, has a rock bottom, and is thirty feet
deep. The water is as clear as glass, and
excessively cold A parachute man, also,
has decided to make the lump.

SINCE Mr.. Watterson, one of the
most devoted of Cleveland's followers,
is frank enough to say that it would be
suicidal" to nominate him, it is time
to inquire whether the party is willing
to commit hari-kari for the gratifca-
ton OF few ex-postmasters and appli-
cants or.foreign missions. Mr.. Wat
terson says that Mr.. Cleveland himself
is too faithful to the party to permit it.
1t is to be hoped that his friendship
for the ex-president does not move him
to partial judgment in this matter,

THE trunk lines are winning. Uncle
Sam knew the value of distributing
facilities when he located the head
quarters of the Eleventh postal divis-
ion in Fort Worth; the Methodist
church appreciated the benefits OF
railroad center when it located two
bishops in Fort Worth. The Walter
A. Woods company and Warden, Bush
nell & Glassner have now followed the
example set by Uncle Sam and the
Methodist church, and the coming of
these big firms is but the beginning.
Trunk lines and an abundant supply
of fine water are producing results.

Queer can get an enlarged free list of

the duty is on olives, olive oil, altar of

need these in his business. If he can
get those things he is bound to have on
the free list by economy, he can do
without the iuxuries.

A QUEER FARO GAME.
His System Beat the Bank, but
wouldn't do for Earthquakes.

His System Beat the Bank, but
wouldn't do for Earthquakes.
Anaconda Standard.
Whenever see faro game I am
reminded OF a story told Oh Silverpeg,
an old prospector. He was tsciturn
man, and spent most of his time pros
pectipg in Sonora and Arizona. He got
his nickname from the fact that one
of his legs was smputated at the
knee, necessitsting his wearing q
wooden peg, and the additional
fact shat he was always prospecting
for silver. Silverpeg had two ambi
tions In life -ope was to strike q rich
silver mine, in which event he swore
he would make himself q silver leg to
replace the wooden one he hobbled
on; the other was TO bet faro by his
system. His system was for certain
cards to win clear through and others
to lose in the same manner.
For years Silverpeg has spent his
summers in prospecting without
finding "rich silver mine" On the
advent of winter he would come to
town and endeavor to break the faro
banks with his system. The DAY the
earthquake occurred he was at Ba-
vispe, Sonora, and was playing faro.
He was playing his system and had
been coppering the jack. The jack
had lost three times. Silverpeg was
in happy mood, as his system
was proving winning one. He cop
pered the jack clear up to
the limit, being sure that his
system was right and that the
jack would lose out. But before the
dealer could make turn, the earth
quake came, the walls of the house
and chairs and tables began to slide
over the floor and the dealers and
players being badly frightened, made
Q rush for the door. When they got
out on the street the shock was over.
The players after recovering from
their fright, resumed their places at
the table They, had been SO sudden
! ~ surprised Dy the shock that taey
had not gathered up their checSs >,
which on their return, were appacent-
ly just rs they had been placed. The
dealer took his seat, made turn AID
the jack lost.
The shock had knocked the eonper
off Silverpeg's pct, and he had not
noticed it. The dealer took tt e BET In
and Silverpeg was dumfounded. He
saw what the earthquake had done.
His disgust was intense. Gathering
up his remaining chips he cashed
them in, and turning to the players,
he said: boys, played faro before L
learned the Lords player; L have
tackl led brace games before, but this
is the first time I ever struck 8
bank where Providen ce stood In with
the house. My system was all right,
and if the Lord had held back that
shock few deals would have broke
the bank. can beat the box, but l
can't beat Providence. 1 will never
play faro again: the odds are too
great"
Silverpeg kept his word, and no in
ducement could ever persuade him to
play faro.

This matter of speed is tested in very
interesting way.
A long wooden shed is used in which
a distance of exactly 100 feet has been
carefully marked off. At each end OF
this space is stand something like a
target, with a large circular opening
where the bullseye should be. Across
each opening is stretched small electric
wire connected with delicate instru-
ment in another room. The rifle FROM
which the firing is done is so aimed that
the bullet which flies from it cuts both
wires. Obviously the difference in time
between the cutting of the two wires
marks the speed of the bullet through
that 100 feet. The measurement of this
infnitesimal space of title is done by an
instrument called a Boullnge chrome

How Women Use Their Watches.

The swagger young woman these days
wears her watch ON the shoulder just in
front,of the arm, dangling in the air,
ready for every pickpocket in New
York.
1T makes me cry, almost" said a
jeweler, Ito think how women abuse
watches"
What do they do with them?"
ASK me something easier" he went
on, "or rather ask me what they do not
do with their watches. In the first
place watch is an extremely sensitive
bit of mechanism, intensely alive to the
action of the temperature. Every vari-
alton from heat to cold, and vice versa,
leaves its mark on a watch. Even with
the best care, a watch will vary in accu-
racy to a considerable extent. Then
what may be expected of a watch which
a woman uses as she would a bit of rib
bon, or bangle or other toy? No woman
who carries her watch exposed in the
manner indicated by the above demand
OF fashion need hope to have her time
piece keep any sort of time. 1t is
simply impossible. Every cold blast
that strikes the watch alters it in some
degree and makes it less valuable as a
timekeeper.
Another reason why l dislike the
present fad is because, to my mind, it
reacts on the jewellers. 1t is like this:
A woman will get watch. Soon it be-
gins to act badly. She comes back.
She complains. We try to fix the watch.
In few weeks it is as worthless as ever
Then she blames the trade for selling
her a shabby watch. l tell you it does
not pay. New York World.

American and German City Government.
With us, municipal offices are the
spoils of successful politicians; in Ger
many they are the prizes of successful
experts. 1t seems to a German as in
credible to hear of city governed by
men who are just pausing on their way
to some higher place as it would be to
hear of railroad or a cotton mill thus
superintended. Good city administra-

because the man with the appointing

The Grave OF st. swithin.

ST. Swithin, by his express request, was
buried in the open churchyard, thinking
no vault was so good to cover his grave as
that of heaven" When he was canonized,
however, the monks of Winchester took it
into their heads that his body ought to
have more dignified resting place, and
resolved to remove it into the choir, fixing
the 18th of July for its solemn translation.
1t rained, however, so violently on that
day and for forty days in succession that
they abandoned their design as contrary to
the divine will and instead erected chap.
ell over his grave, at which many miracles
are said to have been wrought.-All the
