The New Tunnel.

The work of building the new tunnel at the Shore Line cut is being rapidly pushed, 126 feet having been bored in the rock from the northwest already. An advance of about seven feet is made every day. There are fourteen steam drills at work in the tunnel. Into the drill holes, seven feet in length, dynamite cartridges are forced, about 150 pounds of the explosive being used at one blast. When the holes are charged, the wires are connected and the dynamite is exploded simultaneously by electricity. These are not so heavy as the outside blasts, as very heavy charge give 6 tremendous shock. For outside work charges of 700 and 800 pounds of dynamite are discharged at once.
 The cut will not be finished until some time next June. The tunnel is to be 26 double tracks. At the thickest part of the rock the surface is over eighty feet above the tunnel floor. The cut through the solid rock will be between 500 and 600 feet But owing to the insecure sides of the ap- breaches it has been decided best to arch them with brick, 50 that the entire length of the tunnel will be from 1,500 to 1000 feet. There will be openings for light st distances of about 600 feet, so that 1t will not be necessary to light the passenger cars.
 Brick of thickness of seven courses will form the roof of the approaches, and ,000, 900 brick will be required in this construc- tion. At Hill street there will be another tunnel of 200 feet.
 Between 400 aud 500 men are employed fn the construction of the tunnel.

HEAD OF FOUR CHURCHES.
Is It Any Wonder Ministers
 Break Down :?
Bishop Phillips Braoks Died as the
 Result of OvsrWork.
Rev. Henry LangfOrd, the Emi- nent Preacher, Just Saved
 from same Fate.

Overwork kills.
 The great bishop, Phillips Brooks, was stricken down in the prime of his man hood and usefulness as the direct result of physical and nervous exhaustion brought on by overwork.
 Now comes the news that Rev. Henry Lspgtord, tho eminent Baptist divine of Weston, West Va has just escaped utter nervous and physical prostration.
 He is pastor of four churches. Ia it any wonder that he broke down in health
 The reverend gentleman gives . very interesting account of himself and his troubles:
 "For ten years," he said, "I have been nervous and growing worse all these years. During the last four or five years ] became so nervous could scarcely sign my nams so it could be read. was so nerv- ous that could not read my own sermon notes after they had been laid aside awhile.
 "I was unable to hold my head steady in the pulpit, nor could I hold or handle my books and papers without embarrass. ment, owing to the trembling and weak ness of my hands and arms. l was so nerv ous that I could scarcely feed myself. lr fact, my nervous system was wrecked.

is the result of the labor and experience of one of the greatest physicians that ever lived, and from the time when 1t was first prescribed by Prof. Phelps of Dartmouth the public. Physicians of all schools pre- scribe it. and those who use 1t recommend it heartily.
 MT. J. S. Bsiu Is chief of the P. N. col lectors in the office at Washington, and one of the trustiest young men in his depart ment. Writing to Wells & Richardson Co.,, Burlington, Vt., Aug. 22, he said:
 "On my word and honor as . gentleman I have not passed a summer in the last seven years without having a spell of two or three weeks with rheumatism. Paine's celery compound saved me this time, and two bottles of the compound have made @ new man of me. I weigh more now than ever did in my lifs-160 pounds-and Paine's celery compound has the credit of doing this. have recommended 1t to two of the men in the office, and it worked like a charm in their cases. One of the men was q total wreck. It would do you good to see him now. He told me to, day that l 1t was the finest medicine he ever took in ! his life."
 Mrs Bsin wrote week later as follows:
 "My husband for several years has suf. fered very much with rheumatism. Every spring for years he has lost at least two weeks with this trouble. He had tried 1 every other medicine mention able, but with little or no relief. In June he had rhsu- matism in his right shoulder very badly, | but am happy to say he lost no time. He | got bottle of Paine's celery compound for the first time, and it checked the trouble in four hours, and now, after taking two bottles, he is himself again, and gaining in flesh very rapidly, weighing more than he ever did in his life. It is 8 wonderful remedy"
 Says a we'll known and conservative l physician, a graduate or Harvard medical | school: "Paine's celery compound Is a rem edy, which, so far my observation has l gone. has given better results than any which I have ever tried.
 ESQ much better results are obtained, in fact, by celery compound that 1t has bs
 become regular prescription among the most eminent practitioners. I prescribe il invariably. Every victim of rheumatism may use it."
 To cleanse the blood and sooths thu nerve centers and rob them of their ir
 inability is the utmost that medical knewl edge can do to make sound bodies anG
 minds. Paine's celery compound is to-day
 recognized ss the most effective agent foI
 strengthening and invigerating the nervous
 system. It cures rheumatism and neuralgia
 as nothing else will do.

zone day I was in the store of R. 8. Ogden at Ssrdis, W. Va , and he said to me: You take two bottles of Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, and if you say it don't help you, you need not pay for it.
 Fl took two bottles of this medicine and found so much relief that I bought two more bottles, and now I am wonderfully improved in health and strength. Dr. Greene's Nervura blood snd nerve remedy did 1t. can heartily and truthfully rec, ommend 1t to the sick. Too much cannot be said in praise of this splendid medicine.
 s'I say this for the good of other suffer CTS from nervous and prostrating diseases who can be cured by this remedy. For myself I am thankful to God that found Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy and for what it has done for me"
 You who suffer with nervous and physi- cal weakness and prostration from over
 work or other cause have only to follow the example and recommendation of Rev. MT. Lapgford in order to insure return of health aud strength. This truly re- markable and harmless vegetable remed y is the discovery of the successful specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, Dr. Greene, of 35 West 14sh street, New York. The doctor can be consulted in all cases free of charge, personally or by letter

Cordage common de- clined to 9 and preferred to 10.
 Near the close there was rally and the mar ket left off barely steady. The net changes for the day were merely fractional, either way, ex- cept in the cases of Western Union, General Electric, New York Central and New Jersey Central. which lost to 15s. The loss in CoIdage preferred is per cent.
