LIFT BRIDGE STUCK.
Raised to Let a Tug Through
1t Could Not Be Lowered.
New York Central Trains Delayed
Hours by the Accident.
Tho Old Drawbridge Used as q
Makeshift.

An accident occurred to the new lift
bridge OF the New York Central Rail
road over the Harlem River at $50 this
morning that is giving the officials OF
the road a great deal of trouble and Sc
riously delayed traffic for more than two
hours.
At $50 the bridge was lifted to let a
tug pass. When the engineer o. tho
bridge reversed the engine to let the
bridge down the machinery refused to
work.
TIL bridge remained obstinateiy in the
air, and all trains coming INTO II lesv-
ing the city were stopped.
The first train that got through finally
was train No. 81. coming in. 1t was due
at sos, but did not get into the station
until $40. being over two hours behind
its scheduled time.
All other trains were delayed from a
half hour to two hours.
The lift bridge was put into use
last Saturday. 1t is designed for tenn
porary use only until the Company can
build a new draw. which will not be
hnished for about a year and a half.
An old draw, of the ordinary pivotal
style, had been lett alongside OF the
lift-bridge, and when the accident &C.
CURED this morning the officials had re-
curse to this old draw.
It required nearly three hours to put
this in working order. 30 that trains
could be moved over.
General Manager Franklin, Of the
Harlem River Division. made an inves-
dgation.
He found that several iron bars which
held the balance weights In place in the
bridge tower were broken.
a number OF weights then came to-
gether, n hung In such a way as to
make too great a weight for the engines

1t will require two days to make the
necessary repairs and put the bridge In

one need complain at the condition of
things. The Columbian exposition is as
near ready at this stage as the great Paris
show OF 1889 was, and nearer finished than
was the Centennial or the French exposi-

for has not been accomplished They did
their part of the work, and amid frightful
obstacles. They struggled with a her

as adverse weather, winter and summer,

liable spirit enabled them to. have the

THE BIGGEST SHOW.

But the Latter, While Not Wholly Fin
ished, Is Wonderful Display, Wherein
the Foreigners Excel-De1ay Not Chi
cago's Fault-How to See the Exposition.
WORLDS FAIR, May At is the day
after the great Columbian exposition is
supposed to be ready to receive visitors
from all over the world. 1t is and it isn't.
There is not one large building in which
the installation of exhibits is complete.
Everywhere the people in charge are still
putting their wares III order, and many Of
them are working atnight, after the gates
are closed, with, hammers and paint
brushes. The comment one hears on every
side is that Chicago, and by Chicago we
simply use a, convenient term for the
management of the exposition, has done
its work better than the exhibitors have
done theirs. While the contents of these
huge buildings, the products of the arts
and Industries of the whole world, are
worthy and interesting, the greatest fea-
ture of the show, beyond all question, is
the White City. The grounds and build
ings in which the exhibits ARE displayed
are more impressive and attractive than
the exhibits themselves. The tent beats
the circus.
But it should not be forgotten that the
grounds and the palaces are themselves
an exhibit. They are intended primarily
to house and accommodate the machinery,
the fabrics, the works of art and the
products of all the world. But incident
ally they are an exhibit of the progress
made IN architecture in America, in build
ing operations. in landscape designing and
decoration, in artificial illumination and
in ornamentation with statuary and fres-
Goes Yesterday the vast throngs who at
tended the opening ceremonies said the
most fascinating view within the enclosure
was to be had out of doors. That is true
today, and will be true all the time.
Therefore it is that most Of the people who
are here today wander around the grounds,
looking up a. the facades and towers and
giant roofs OF the buildings; they watch
gondoliers and launches on the lagoons, or
spend hours and hours noting the various
styles and arts Of architecture in the inn
mense number of foreign and state build
ings. Nothing seems to fascinate them
more than the works of art with which the
grounds and exteriors of the buildings are
enriched. The golden Republic, the beau
tiful Barge Of State, the statue of Frank
lin, the spirited Quadriga, and hundreds,
almost thousands more of products Of
artist studios, engross the attention of a
large proportion Of today's visitors.
Those who do go within the buildings
to look at the wonders there displayed do
not stay long. They are not disappointed
in what they fnd--though of course the

genius and greater energy which conceived
and wrought the outdoor picture. The
general verdict is that the world has not
only been outdone but that a mark has
been set which Che French, even, and they
are the world-famous experts in exposi-
tions, will be a long time coming up to.
AS the weeks wear on and we begin to
receive from the other side of the water
the opinions Of the foreign journalists and
critics sent here to pass judgment, pre-
dict you will see little or no adverse COM
ment on the stage which Chicago has set
for the International rehearsal. There
will be nothing but praise, and warm
praise for that. The criticism, if there be
any, will be upon the exhibits and the
manner in which they are installed. AL
ready it is obvious even to the most care
less observer that while Americans have
the solid merit In their wares, the ingenu-
ity and adaptability and growth, when it
comes to the matter of arranging them in
most attractive form they have lessons to
learn from our foreign friends Though
domestic exhibitors outnumber the foreign
ten to one, in nearly every building the
most attractive and beautiful exhibit, the
one which first catches the eye and holds
it longest, is made by q foreign govern
ment or firm. The exhibit made by our
own government, though large and inter
esting, is awkward and even ugly and in
artistic compared to that of the French,
the Germans and the English. 1t is of
different character, Of course, being con-
fined mostly to an illustration of the func-
lions and operations of government, but it
might have been arranged with better
finish and effect.
In the matter of promptness, too, the for
signers, with few exceptions, are in the
lead. Very few of the foreign exhibits
heed anything now but few finishing
touches. The exhibits which are in pro-
voking confusion, showcases not put up
Ind boxes not unpacked, are those of
Americans who have had plenty of time
but who have been guilty Of the national
fault of procrastination. 1t certainly is
somewhat remarkable that the foreigners
should have ceme across the sea, into q
strange land and beaten their American
rivals in quickness OF installation. The
American is too fond Of letting a task go
till 1t has to be done, and then, by a sud-
den display of energy, just get there. !"
Get theSe he does, asa rule, but too many
OF the American exhibits are now, though
in the exposition ring, still trife dis
figured. '

Squirt Blood Out of Their Ewes.

= - Squirt Blood Out of Their Eyes.
It has been said that horned toads,
when leased, sometimes squirt blood out.
of their eyes. This has been proved by
Mr.. 0. P. Hay, who, to facilitate the
shedding Of the skin, tossed one into the
the water, when ION the side Of the
basin there suddenly appeared a number
of spots of red fluid which resenbled
blood" This was rnicroscopically proved
to be blood. A day or two afterward Mr..
Hay was holding the lizard between his
thumb and middle finger and stroking.
its horns with his fore finger. All 1t.
once quantity of blood was thrown out
against his fingers and aportion Of it
ran' down on the animals neck, and THIS
blood came directly out of the right eve.
This has been noticed by others, and

ago Mr.. A. r. Wallace published let
ter from a correspondent in California

from one Of Its eyes "a jet Of bright red
liquid very much like blood. New

Strike Ordered in Biddeford.

men in Biddeford demanded nine hours

The demand was refused by the operators
of the II local quarries and the union
appealed to. Last night Secretary Byron OF
Quincy was here, and after learning the
situation he ordered strike, unless the
quarry operators shall give in before
Monday next. The stone cutters are also
ordered out, and about 300 men will be
idle unless the demands of the quarrymen
are conceded, which at present seems un-
