A Tall Buildings Foundations.

As new buildings in this city have
been growing taller, their foundations
have become proportionately deeper,
and now the care taken in the con-
struction of foundations is almost as
great as in the erection of the build
ing itself. A striking instance of this
is seen at Broadway and Pine street,
where on a plot eighty-fve feet
square, there in to be erected TWEEN
ty-story building of the American
Surety Company, When completed it
will be SOC feet from curb to roof,
twenty feet higher than the steeple of
Trinity Church and little above the
Manhattan Life Building, exclusive of
the latter's steel tower.
Work on the foundations was begun
on May l, and will probably be com
pleted early in October. The first
thing done was to sink rectangular
steel caissons to fill the area required.
Under these the men worked, digging
away the earth, little by little, the
caissons all the while sinking by their
own weight and that Of several tons of
pig IRON on the top of them. Air was
continually pumped to the men
through a chimney-shaped cylinder.
These caissons are sunk from a level
eighty feet below the street curb till
a bed Of solid rock is struck.
When all the caissons are down they
will be filled with cement, and on the
top of this cement-flled steel frame
will be erected octagonal pillars of
brick, for distance of about forty to
fifty feet as support for the cellar
of the building.
The depth and strength of the
foundations of such building are, of
course, calculated according to the
strain they are to be subjected to.
The foundations of this building are
constructed to stand the pressure of n
building ten stories higher than the
one to be erected on them, and, ac-
cording to the builder, are the deepest
and strongest ever made. New York

SUMNER IN INDIA.

Our cattle reel beneath the yoke they bear
The earth is iron and tho skies are brass
and faint with fervor Of the flaming air,
The languid hours pass.
The well is dry beneath the village tree-
The young wheat wlthers ere it reach a
span,
And the belts of binding sand show cruelty
Where once the river ran.
Pray, brothers, pray, but to no earthly king
Lift up your hands aboye the blighted
grain,
Look westward-if they please, the gods
shall bring
Their mercy with the rain.
Look westward-bears the blue no brown

Nay, it is wrltten-wherefore should we

Lie down, lie down to die

The Latest British Rife.

The latest issue of the Lee-Metford
rife to the British Army illustrates
the improvements that have been
made as the result of the recent ex-
periments. The feed OF the car
tridges has been SO improved that the
magazine will take ten instead of
eight, the barrel has been lightened,
the sight is now graduated up to 1890
yards and the total average weight has
been reduced to nine pounds four
ounces. The experts have reported to
the War Office that the effect of these
improvements is to considerably in
crease the effectiveness OF the weapon
and to still further establish its claim
to being the best army rifle in use in
Europe. New Orleans Picayuue.

The Vessel is a Rock.

Three ship masters lately have come
into San Francisco with reports of an
unknown bark stranded on a reef fif-
teen miles west of the straits of LIE
Marie, near Cape Horn. Curiously
enough, the vessel was reported as
having all her sails set A few days
ago the British ship Cedric the Saxon
reached San Francisco, aud reported
that she had examined the supposed
bark at close quarters, sailing within
half milo of it, and the captain says
that the reported bark is nothing but
a rock, although its resemblance to a
vessel is so striking that when he first
saw it he made ali entry i'll his log to
the effect that n bark was stranded
with all its rigging intact. Even when
he approached close to it its resem-
blance to bark was so great that he
called the whole ships crew to look at
it. A strange feature of the case is
that this rock has never been observed
before by vessels that have been
around the Horn scores of times. -

The New York Tribune remarks:
There is a good deal of talk in certain
quarters, mainly from people who
think themselves wise above what Is

their half knowledge, adverse to the
used of the bicycle by women. The
charge that it is immodest for women
to ride the bicycle is not deserving of
serious attention. A modest woman

cycle-riding is injurious to women's
health is most important one; the
answer can only be given as the result
of experience. Undoubtedly harm
has been done by excessive riding
but so it may be caused by too much
walking or rowing. The general tes-
simony seems to be that the use of the

Paolo's fears were groundless. Ro-
setta had resigned herself to the in
evltable. She dared not aspire now to
be Paolo's wife. Would it not be a
very astonishing thing if the little
Rosetta Dounet should become the
bride of Doctor Laurent? There
would be laughter for ten leagues
about at such a wedding. SO she re-
signed herself without anger, without
bitterness, contented, when alone, to
lament silently her vanished dream,
her castle of cards fallen to the earth.
She became pale and languld. Her
relations sought in vain to discover
the cause of the strange malady that
lay SO heavily upon her. 70 all their
questions she said:

The Dounets, however, consulted
the most celebrated physicians of the
region, None of them could discover
the cause of the trouble.
But some good country friend had
been behind Paolo and Rosetta at the
time when they made their pledge Of
love. Father Dounet was at last in

P. P. LEE. Dean Hicks of the
university faculty that he wanted to get
knowledge so that he might be able to
teach his people.
Lee was just month upon the road. The
story he told of his ambition gained him so
many friends along the route that he had
little difficulty in finding food and lodging,
and he found that the white people were
quite as willing to assist him as those of his
W race. Whenever it was possible, he
repaid his benefactors by doing some sort
of work for them. When he reached At.
lanta, he had 10 cents more in his pockets
than when he started from Vicksburg.
Some doubt as to the truth of his story
about his long walk was expressed at the
college, but his account of himself was ul-
timately verified in every particular, and
he was fed and clothed and kept at hard
work for three weeks as a test of his hon
esty of purpose and his ~faithfulness. HAY
ing proved his industry and demonstrated
his ardent desire to get ahead, he was adj
mitted to the grammar course, which he
attends faithfully, working hard for his
subsistence during the hours not devoted to
study.
Lee formerly attended the public schools
in N%icksburg, and his desire for knowledge
became a passion. He heard of the Atlanta
university and wrote for a catalogue. Pres
ident Bumstead sent him one and at the
same time advised him to save some money
before coming to Atlanta. Lee was too
eager to wait and decided to take the
chances of finding employment in Atlanta
while pursuing his studies. So far he has
not been disappointed, and if he retains the
persistence with which he has shown him
self so well endowed the world will hear
more of him in the future,

boom soon compelled him to part with his
property to another boomer whom the

found the mansion too costly an invest
