A FEAT OF ENGINEERING.
The Raising OF Railroad Bridge With.
ont InterruptinR TrnfilC.


The raising OF bridge in Switzer-
land upon the line OF the International
railway from Paris to Vienna has at
tracted considerable attention from the
methods pursued. The occasion for the
change, says Locomotive Engineering,
was that the river crossed-the Rhine
had lost In the sectional area Of tho
passage between the piers about 25 per
cent In thirteen years, owing to tho
deposition Of gravel and sediment,
while the highwater level had risen to
such an extent as to pile floating de-
bris six feet deep on the bridge floor in
times OF flood. The alterations In
cluded some reinforcements, besides
the raising of the whole structure
about five feet. The bridge was con-
'tinuous over center pier, and had two
main vertical posts there and four ver-
ticsl end posts To each of these posts
an inclined strut was attached in o
transverse vertical plane, presenting
surface for the top Of hydraulic Jack
to act upon. Eight special hundred.
ton jacks were used, with an eight-inch
stroke and a working pressure Of four
hundred atmospheres, the piston being
nearly OF in diameter. The fluid used
was mixture Of water, alcohol and
glyccrine Sixteen men operated the
jacks, their movements being synchro-
nized by code Of signals, designed to
secure uniformity Of action. The bridge
was raised o foot or two by short lifts,
followed by thoroughly blocking and
then building under one course Of cut
stone masonry. The total load was Ave
hundred and forty-six tons, and the max
imum load on each jack was eighty.
seven tons. The bridge was raised in
four stages during intervals between
trains. The longest interval between
trains was about two hours. The
weight of trains was rigidly restricted
during the time the bridge was under
going repairs, and their speed was linn
itcd to three miles an hour in crossing
the bridge. In addition, special
block system was organized upon that
section Of the line upon which the
fridge is located, SO that operations
could be suspended and the track re.
stored five minutes before the arrival
Of train ut the site.

CHINESE VEGETABLES.
Several Likely to n Useful introduced 1,
This Gountry.

This Country.
In bulletin 81, Just issued by tho
Cornell agricultural experiment sta
tion, Prof. Bailey gives some account
of several garden vegetables which
have been introduced into this country
by the Chinese. The most valuable
for American gardens, says Garden and
Forest, Is the so-oalled Chinese cab
bage, pe-tsai. 1t is o plant with o loose.
lettuce-like head Of crisp leaves, which
may DO used in all the ways In which
cabbage is served. II Is an autumn
vegetable, and requires q cool and
moist soil. The same cultivation and
attention are demanded for the Chinese
mustard, which is an excellent plant
for greens, and produces an enormous
amount Of herbage. California pepper
grass, which was brought prominently
into notice by John Lewis Childs In
1890, seems to be finely cut leaved
form OF mustard which has been long
known in old gardens In this country,
but has not been described either in
American botanies or gardening books.
1t is one of the best Of all plants for
early spring green's 1t is not known
how or when the plant first came to
this country, for, although it is culti-
waited in China and Japan, 1t does not
appear to have been independently in
troduced from either OF these countries
in recent years. There are other mus
tard-lilSe plants which have been intro
duced from China which possess less
merit than the foregoing species for
American gardens. Among them are
the palk-choi, used as green's and for
the thick white leaf-stalk; and the
tubcrous-rooted mustard, grown for Its
small turnip-like root. OF the cucur-
bitaceous plants introduced by the Chi
ncse the best Is the wax gourd, zit-kwa,
the fruit of which is excellent for con-
serves. 1t is easily cultivated, but re-
quircs long season. The laliwa, or
Momordica charantia, is not new to
the American city trade, but has more
merit as curiosity and an ornamental
vine than as an esculcnt for our taste.
The lutfas, or dish-cloth gourds, are Of
two species, which differ chiefly in the
contour of their fruits The one best
known has ribless cylindrical fruits,
but the one chiefly cultivated by the
Chinese in the neighborhood Of New
York has club-shaped ribbed fruit.
These fruits are chiefly interesting be-
cause they yield sponge-like fiber
which Is useful for household pur-
poses. The tau-lio1 is bean Of some
merit for late home use, but the Chi
nese pea has little to recommend it,
and the other vegetables named have
hardly any value for our gardens.

There is no better proof OF the essential
barbarism of even the most civilized
nations of the world than is afforded by
a comparison of the money they expend
for the maintenance of physical
supremacy as against the expenditure
for mental Improvement. Though it be
assumed that brain is better than
Drawn, there is no evidence that states
men so regard it. In some tables re-
Gently compiled, the amount per capita

p..r,aed Wood for Chimes. Comns.

A curious source Of wealth Is reported
by the French consul at Mongtze, In
Upper Tonkin. It lies in wood mines.
The wood was originally pine forest,
which the earth swallowed In some
cataclysm. Some Of the trees are a
yard in diameter. They lie in q slanting
direction and in sandy soils, which cover
them to n depth Of about eight yards.
AS the top branches are well preserved
it is thought tho geological convulsion
which buried them cannot be Of very
great antiquity. The wood furnished
by these timber mines is imperishable,
and the Chinese gladly buy 1t for cof-

Gov. Mckinley made great campaign
speech at Bangor. Maine, on last Satur-

prejudices of the ex.U Union soldiers against
the Democrats, he stated that the pre- sent
Congress. at it's late session, appropri-
ated $20.59a, ,104,S5 less for pensions
than were appropriated at the last ses-

PEARSON thinks that strong family
combinations in politics are much more
reliable than principles. 1t now looks as
il 'rhos. Hale Weaver did not agree with
the Duke on this code Of political ethics.
Thos. Hale Weaver sees which way the
"cat is hopping" and does not care to
swing to the tail OF kite that will not
fly. And there is your cousin Jesse Nor
gan, that played the organ. 1t would
seem that his end Of the ''strong family
combination" is not developing the
strength that the Duke signs for. When
a man or party deserts principle defeat
is invited and the invitation is ALWAYS
accepted. Men and strong family COM
binations" may rise and fall and disap-
pear from the face of the earth, but the
principles that guide and control men
go on forever. Here is where the Duke
has dropped his watermelon in all OF
his political calculations.
