but that Is merely incidental. Donnelly's
theory was that the land wae submerged by
some great volcanic uPheaysi; and that t, from

ing disproved by. the fact, that there
are no traces Of such volcanic action

opinion that traces Of the Egyptians Of those

A BU11En WHO STOOD ON HIS DIGNITY

Present Earl OF ROsebery.

Present Earl OF hkOSeDery.
A man who helped to mako q curious diplo-
matte episode in the days OF Louis Philippe's
reign. died q few days agu In Passy. a suburb
OF Paris. He was known among his neighbors
simply as Francois. and for half a century or
more he had lived at leisure on the profits ac-
cruing to him from a duel which he had fought
In his youth with the father Of the present
Earl Of Rosebery. Secretary Of State for For

Francois had resigned his place as a nom

assume the more lucrative duties OF butler In
the house OF a conspicuous French statesman.
One duy old Lord Rosebery came to see his
master about the business Of the British Gov

not deliver Lord Rosebery's card to his mas

foundations to the top OF the dome will BIO 40S
feet. In other words. the total height will be
81 feet greater than that Of Trinity Church
steeple. and the structure will be- conspicuous
among the tall buildings OF the world.
The heights Of some OF these other tall
buildings are: st. Peters. Rome. 537 feet: st.
Paui's. London. 500 feet: cathedral OF Milan.
438 feet: cathsdralAat Florence. 1854 feet:
cathedral. New York. 1926 feet: Trinity Church.
28e feet; Washington Monument. 555 feet.
In somo instances those heights are undoubt-
sdly taken to tho extreme top OF q pinnacle
not representing tho main structure.
A few years ago II would have been imprac-
ticable to erect q building OF this height for
Business purposes, particularly on q small
blot Of ground. because the space taken
up by the thick walls necessary to
carry SO high a building would render
any practical arrangement Of the rooms
out Of the question. The income would not
warrant the expenditure. Steel skeleton con-
struction. now used universally for tall build
tngs. admits OF walls no thicker than would be
provided for the ordinary six or eight story
ONCE building. and therefore there is no limit
a. the. height to which buildings may rise.
> tfovidipe the foundations can be made strong
enough to sustain them.
An old principle used exclusively heretofore
In bridge building Is being applied to secure
. stable foundation for this sky scraper. 1t
Is the sinking Of caissons to bod rock. 90 to
60 feet below the level of Broadway. These
c~aissons are Of tho form OF Immense steel
chambers or tanks. varying In size according
to the loads to be carried. and about IL feet
IN height. On them brick work is built as the
caisson sinks In the ground and until 1t
reaches the rock level. Then tho chamber is
nlled with the strongest kind OF concrete.
The caisson Is the working chamber I'M
der pressure all the time. and Is con-
trolled By an air lock, in which men are
at work excAvating the earth and blowing 1t
out by means OF an air pipe TO tho surface.
Whatever is found through which the piers
