agreed to. Then followed an amendment
to change the rate on condensed milk

per pound, which occasioned consider
able debate. Mr.. Northway, Republi-

reduction would ruin the industry and
the. result in an increase of price from 10
to 15 cents pound.

The .,n,.n Line.

A good many Minneapolis and ST.
Paul people who have been soj0urning
recently in the East have been afraid
10 return to their homes by the regular
routes through Chicago. through lack of
confidence in the ability Of the East and
West roads 10 send their trains through
without interference. The result has
therefore been that many have learned
for the first time What an excellent
route was opened TO them to the sea-
board when local capital and nerve
built the 800" anu made its connec-
ton with the Canadian Pacific. They
found IL route that was cool and free
from dust, and so comfortable withal in
lis unbroken continuity without change
Of ears That they wondered they had
never patronZed it before. The preva-
lent i'll wind is certainly blowing some
good in the direction of this worthy
achievement of pluck and capital, and
il fully deserves all the good that blows
its interchangeable Times.

TUBULAR TUNNEL
Under Dover Straits With an Elec-
triCai ROad


{ Another scheme to-joln England and
France Is receiving serious considera-
tion In those countries. 1t is proposed
TO build double tubular tunnel under
the straits OF Dove.
The project consists In simply sub
merging, between point of the French
coast situated In the vicinity of Cape
Gris-Nez and another on the English
coast. located between Dover and Folk
stone, two tubes that would constitute
two absolutely separate tunnels, each
serving for the passage in one direction
of trains drawn by electric locomotives.
The soundings made at distance of
mile apart gave as successive depths.

IS. a nd ~ feet. 1t will be seen. then,
that the mean slope of each tunnel
would not much exceed eight hun
dredths of all inch TO the foot. There
would, therefore, be found excellent
conditions for traction.
The tube would be of steel plate with
double walls. and the intervening space
would be REINFORCED by | beams and
filed in with concrete The putting in
place would be effected by sections of
800 feet, Theoretically sealed at each end
and hoated TO the place where they
were TO be submerged.
One of the eXtremitieS of the section
having been fixed upon sort Of caiSson
that will aiterward perform the func-
tons of the pier. the caisson is weighted
so as to cause it to sink. The other ex-
tremity continues to emerge, and re-
ceives the end of the followin section,
the junction being made by huge hinges.
The caiSSOn of this section is sunk. and
q IN inn in,
place, the formation of the joi nts is
begun.
The caissOnS forming piers are de-
signed 10 support The tubes at slight
distance from the bottom of the sea.
This arrangement possesses the double
advantage of doing away wi tn with any
preliminary dredging, since it will be
possible to give the piers t lie height
necessary to avoid the slight changes
OF level OF the bottom, and OF
assuring free circulation of the marine
currents beneath as we'll as above
the tubes. 1t permits. besides. of SO reg
ulating the system that the upward
thrust partially balances the weight of
the trains in each section. The stress
to which the tube will be submitted by
the fact of such passage will be dimin-
ished by so much, and, therefore. much
better conditions of resistance will be
obtained than in an ordinary bridge.
The use of two distinct tubes will
prevent all chances of accidents, and
will have the great advantage of real
iZng the important problem of the
aerati0n of the tunnel without any eX-
pense. and in as satisfactory manner
as possible. In fact, each train will
have somewhat the effect of piston
that forces the vitiated air before 1t, and
sucks in pure air behind it to take the
place of the former.
The total cost of the installation of
the tubes is estimated at S75, OUO, 900,
which is less than half the cost antc-
ipated for the construction of a bridge
across the channel.

MOTHER BIESSEY,
And How She Became the Friend
OF the Birds.

And How She Became the Friend
of the Birds.
Chicago Record
There lived near the east line of Fill
more county. Nebraska, on Walnut
creek, an old lady who was known as
Mother Birney. She, being one of the
early settlers. was known for miles
around.
Surveyors camped near her place and
gave her a bacon rind to grease the
griddle before baking pancakes. She
would lend that bacon rind 10 all the
neighbors. it being passed from one to
another. each one baking cakes for
breakfast.
Mother Birney lived on an island in a
dugOut, or rather what would be- known
nowadays as cave. This island being
billy. they dug in from the side of the
hill and bored in from the top for the
stovepipe. Further back from the main
room was smokehouse. One day a
fire started four miles south of Mother
Birney's with the wind blowing gale.
and three years. growth of dead grass
on the bottom land made a tremendous
confagration.
Mother Birney stood at her door view
ing the beautiful scene. As the flames
drew near tne earth was alive with
birds. rabbits and squirrels. Mother
Birney opened her door aud, to her
great establishment. they all commenced
going into the house. Chickens. quails,
rabbits, squirrels, all crowded through
the door.
Mother Birney walked In and shut the
door, and sat down among houseful of
wild game until the flames passed over.
Then she opened the door and let them
out. and as long as she lived there she
could find the wild fowls at her door.

that showed US all that we had no play

Every man In the ring was an expert

him, cautiously at first. But soon he
