Just how frequently the chief of engineers
OF the army will have to call attention TO
that dangerous nuisance-the Long bridge
before remedial measures are adopted and
q new structure succeeds the present men,
ace Is probably beyond even prophetic
ability to foretell 1t is disgraceful that
such conditions should prevail Year after
year l. there repetition OF official complaint,
and winter after winter breeds fear of
such damage as has resulted in recent
times from the presence Of the unsghtly
obstruction. Defiant as to the citys best
interests, and careful only of his business
relations, Stephen B. Elkins, when Secre-
tary OF War, granted to the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad Company reparative privileges
which were used to strengthen that COM
pany's tracks and at the same time to in
crease the dams capacity for evil to a very
considerable extent 1t is an open secret
that none of the engineer officials would
tndorse the company's application for per-
mission to extend and solidify the obstruc-
ton to river-how, and that the permit was
granted by the Secretary over the protests
OF his non-entangled and indignant subor-
dinases. In his annual report Gen. Casey
once more directs attention to the bridge
and its approaches. To him the necessity
OF new and modern structure is plain.
He ID satisfied that in the event Of a
freshet occurring when the Potomac Is full
Of ice great damage is to be expected THE
piers Of the bridge" says he. ARE Of such
faulty construction that an ice gorge would
be probable, which would cause the water
to back up and overflow portions of the
city front and through the sewers above the
bridge such portions of the lower parts of
the city as may be drained by them. Great
damage was done by the freshet of June,
1883. but greater damage may occur from a
freshet of lesser magnitude by an ice
gorge" VIII this warning go unheeded. as
Others have? Is Congress going to wait
until a couple Of million dollars have been
swallowed up by flood before It moves to
remedy a great wrong that should have
ceased to exist long ago?

An improved taste In architecture on the
part Of the general public will, Ii Is thought.
be one OF the results of the influence Of the
worlds fair. There Is no one feature Of
the great exhibition that ELECTED such hearty
and unstinted admiration as the forms
and grouping of the buildings. In view of
the practically universal condemnation
which these beautiful creations of the ar
chitects' brain evoked. 1t Is safe to say that
the bill which was passed by the last Con-
gress looking toward an improvement in
the designs Of the public buildings to be
erected throughout the country represents
very fully public sentiment on this sub
5ect- As Is probably well known. this bill
confers upon the Secretary of the Treasury
the authority to invite the aid Of the trained
architectural skill of the country IL he
should SO desire. to prepare plans for the
erection of the public buildings. The pur-
pose Is a plain and simple one. the design
of this law being to enable the government
to avail itself Of the services of the best
architects In the country in designing build
ings which ought to be, even II they are
not now, the main features In the towns
and cities where they are erected.
The provisions Of this bill have not been
carried out owing to failure at the Treas
ury Department to prepare the regulations
Under Wnicn the law Is to be executed In
a semi-official utterance the acting super
vising architect Of the treasury recently
stated that the law would only result In
recurring better designs for public buildings.
and the inference was that 1t was not
worth while to attempt to carry out the
provisions Of the statute for such trivial
object. yet this object was the very one
that was aimed at, both by the projectors
of the law and by Congress. Congress, by
Its act. declares that 1t is OF the opinion
that better designs are needed for our pub
lie buildings, and Congress Is right The
public would not object IL the architecture
of public buildings was az least made equal
to the best of the private structures in the
country. II Is true that IL the services of
outside architects are secured that the pre-
hminary work will cost more than IL the
plans were prepared in the office of the sup
cruising architect of the treasury but the
people Of this country are willing to pay for
. good thing and it is evident that they
want the best in our public buildings. No
matter how small or comparatively incon-
sequential the structures may be they rep
resent in their particular places the dig
nifty OF our government. Now they mis-
represent and are memorials of an archi-
tectural civilization much lower than that
developed at the worlds fair. The best is
none too good for this nation.

TROUBLE Will FOLLOW.
II Should Be Understood and Looked
after Now.
Some Things Which People
Cannot Well Explain.
This May Be Absolutely New to
the Average Reader.

Many people, wonder what 1t means
when there is a tingling or prickling SEN
sation with more or less numb Feeling in
the hands, feet or limbs. It means that
there is a condition of the nerves which
predisposes toward paralysis. If in addi-
ton to the above sensations there Ia pain
in the head, a general bad feeling with
weak, weary or excessively tired feeling in
the limbs, it may be taken as certain that
paralysis will result if something is not
Immediately done to avert this terrible
disaster.
All should remember that in such cases
1t is the neglect of these first symptoms
which results in the fatal and dreaded
shock of paralysis. If person will use
the right remedy when the above feelings
and sensations appear, all danger of a
shock can be warded off. 90.
It is q fact that paralysis and kindred
nervous diseases are increasing at an
alarming rate, thousands about us neg
lecting to realize what these first symp-
toms, 60 apparently trivial, really mean
until they become Frustrated.
A very interesting story is told by Hr.
G.. W. Ryerson, who Is well known bust
ness man, residing at 261 Eighth avenue,
"1n March, 1892" he said, 81 had a
slight stroke of paralysis of the left side,
which was followed in about two weeks by
a second attack, which completely para
lyzed the left side of my body.

The Old and the New.

Changes take place In the medical pro-
fession as in all branches of science. We
believe the greatest good will follow that
generous offer made by DR.. Greene of 35
Vest 14th street, New York, who invites
all persons, far and near, suffering from
any form of disease, to write him de-
scription of their complaints and he will
send them, free of charge, q complete ex-
PLANTATION of their diseases, with advice how
to be cured. He gives most careful and
explicit attention to all letters and ex
plains each symptom go carefully that you
cannot fail to understand exactly what ails
you.
DR. Greene is our most successful special
list In curing nervous aud chronic diseases
He is the dtseoverer of that famous medi-
cine, DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and
and nerve remedy, which is doing such a
vast amount of good all over the world.
He usss nothing in his practice but harm
less vegetable remedies, which can in no
manner injure you This great system of
giving consultation and advice through let
ter correspondence, free of charge, ia espe-
cially important to the poor and those liv-
ing at distance from large cities, as such
consultation and advice were formerly at
tended by great expense. The doctor is
having wonderful success in treating the
sick through letter correspondence, and if
you will write him about your disease 1t
will undoubtedly lead to your cure.

A Pupil of SUPERINTENDENT,

The advent in community which prides
itself upon it's musical taste of musician
so genuine in his art as Herr Johann
Schaub is bound to be an impetus towards
higher aims in music. This remarkably
endowed man is not only a great singer,
but great teacher.
The method of his master, Stockhausen,
is such that the voice is compelled to grow.
From lesson to lesson the evolution of
tone may be detected. The film under
which many really good voices are OBJ
scured is made to melt away. A firm vi
brsto takes the place of the Objectionable
tremolo, and the pupil for the first time
knows what 1t means to sing.
The scholarly attributes and thorough
classicism of Mr.. Sehaub, together with a
strong paternsl magnetism make him an
ideal teacher. He is himself the best illus
tration of the method he teaches, and will
demonstrate this in two songs at the frat
soiree musicale to be given by the Des-
sauer-Troostwyk concert mpany in Har-
monte hall Friday evening, December l.
