Submarine Foundations Made by
Solidifying Sand.

AT the recent Worlds Congress of
Engineering in Chicago, DR.. Neu-
kirch described a method of solidify-
ing sand in the bottom of river by
converting it into concrete masonry
foundation, without being excavated
or disturbed. The process consists
in using air pressure to force dry
powdered hydraulic cement through
a pipe down into the bed OF sand or
gravel. The pipe or tube has lance
shaped foot perforated with small
holes through which air is forced.
The pipe is sunk deep into the sand
and gravel bed by forcing air through
these holes, which displaces these par
tacles OF sand at its foot and allows it
to settle. When the tube has reached
a solid substratum the cement is fed
into the tube, and the current of air
carries it to the foot of the tube, and
injects it with considerable pressure
Into the sand and forms a matrix with
the sand, gravel, and water present.
The blowing in of the cement and air
in this mobile mixture produces a
boiling action at the end of the tube,
which thoroughly mixes the cement
and sand. As the process goes on and
the introduction of the cement con-
tinues, the tube is slowly drawn up at
. speed which permits the required
quantity of cement to be introduced.
AS the tube is drawn!up and the in
lection of the air ceases, the grains of
sand subside and settle together firm
ly, occupying smaller space than be-
fore the cement was introduced. Each
sinking of the tube gives, of course,
only column of concrete, its size de-
pending upon the pressure of the air
and the looseness of the sand. To i'll
sure the solidity of the whole founda-
ton, the pit is divided into small
fields, from s to IL inches square, and
into each field the pipe is sunk and
the requisite quantity of cement
forced. To limit sharply the lateral
dimensions of the foundation and to
protect against outside influences, it is
in the first instance surrounded with
the sheath piling or cofferdam.-

The Princess of Wales, swho Isl so
deaf that she hears nothing unless it is
loudly shouted into her ear, has inher-
tied this unfortunate affliction from
her mother, the Queen of Denmark,
who has for many years been stone
deaf. The defect of hearing proceeds
in both cases from a throat malady,
which has, in slight degree, been in
herited by Princess Maud, who is con-
stanily troubled with a relaxed OF
swollen throat.

The announcement that an Ohio

American woman of means will be
found prefering to perform her thep
remaining light housekeeping duties
herself, rather than endure the annoy.

The West Indian migratory crab is
the only creature that is born in the
sea, natures in fresh waters, and
passes its adult life ON land. Once a
year these creatures migrate in thou
sands from the uplands of Jamaica,
deposit their larvae in the sea, then
migrate TO the rivers aud streams,
pass through a fresh-water stage, after
which they follow their parents to

The suit of Miss Jennie Wainscott
against DR.. J. E. Kasy, professor in
the Georgetown (Ky.) College, for
$1,000 damages, which has been ON
trial for four days, was concluded, and
Miss Wainscott received judgment
of $l250. Miss Wainscott is the house
keeper at the Lancaster Hotel, and
DIR. Kasy until few weeks ago was a
boarder at the hotel, having a suite of
rooms there, About a month ago
some one entered one of his rooms,
stole some diamonds and a gold
watch belonging to his wife, and he
procured warrant to search Miss
Wainscott's trunk, to see if the miss
ing articles could be found. None of
them were found, and she brought
suit with above result.

Good breeds give results correspond
ing with their treatment. A short
horn cow can not be expected to give
a profit when she is turned out on the
hillsides, or on closely cropped pas
ture, to pick up her food. as she is not
adapted for that kind of an existence.
She thrives best, as do some other
breeds, only on lGxuriant pastures
aud on liberal rations, but she will
give good results from such better
treatment.

No doubt there is profit in goat
keeping in small way, where the
conditions are suited to it. They do
not cost much and will subsist upon
land that grows novaluable plant and
will keep no other animal. If they

look out for the dogs.

Overlooking and undertaking both
lead to the same end--s reduction of
the profits. Undertaking stunts
growth and overfeeding is a waste
of food and of time. Never place be-
fore an animal more than it will eat
up clean, with an intermission to
consider whether it wants it all.

Gounod, the worlds greatest mu-
sical composer, died at his home at ST.
Cloud, near Paris, France, at 6:25
a. N, on Wednesday. He suffered a
stroke of apoplexy on Saturday and
did not recover the use of his faculties
again.
M. Gounod's health has been quite
poor for several years. Two years
ago he was prostrated by overwork
and his friends were much alarmed
owing to his advanced years. He had
originally an unusually robust consti-
tuition, and it was due TO this fact
alone that he was able to endure the
arduous labor to which he subjected
himself. Love, work and friendship
are the only real things on earth," he
was accustomed to say, and love,
work and friendship were the key
notes of his whole life. awe must
kill time lest it kill us. We have time
to rest through all eternity" was an
other of his phrases. Life without
work simply meant death to his indie
fatigable genius.

kill time lest 1t kill us. We have time
to rest through all eternity" was an
other of his phrases. Life without
work simply meant death to his indie
fatigable genius.
The great composer was born in
Paris, June II, 1918, He entered the
Conservatoire at the age of twenty
and in the following year carried off
the great "Rome" prize, entitling him
to residence in Italy, where he studied
early Italian church music. On his
return to France he soon became
known as lyric composer for the
stage by his pastoral of "Philemon
and Baucis." This was followed by
ala Nome Sanglante," "Sappho," a
csntata, and ''La Colombo" ....
Yet, in spite of the unquestionable
marks of genius which these works
contained none achieved success. In-
deed, few composers who have risen
to eminence have had more failures at
the outset than the immortal author of
"Faust." Strange to say, this most
celebrated of all his productions was
so misunderstood at first that one of
the librettists wrote to Gounod, "Rc-
quiescat in pace! Our Faust is
buried" Happily for this and future
generations the announcement proved
false ....a..a .. -.'.
Among M. Gounod's principal work
may be mentioned a comic orera
founded on Moliere's "Medicin Malgre
Lui," known to English-speaking au-
diences as the "The Mock Doctor !"
"La Refine de Saba ;" Mirelle," brought
out in London IN 1864; Romeo and
Juliet" produced in Paris and London
in 1867, and "Polyeucte," produced at
the Grand Opera, Paris, October 7
1878. He was elected member of
the French Institute, section of music,
in May, 1865, and was promoted to the
rank of commander of the Legion of
Honor in 1877. -.
"The Tribute to Zamora' was pro-
duced at the Grand Opera in Paris on
April l, 1881. In the following year
his sacred work. "The Redemption
was produced at the musical festival
at Birmingham. In 1885 the oratorio
"Morset Vita" was produced. His
last opera was "Charlotte Corday."
