LONGEST o. swing :. SPANS.
That Now Being Constructed at Omaha
WIN Measure SEQ Feet.

That Now Being Constructed at Omaha
Win Measure SEQ Feet.
A bridge is now in course of erec-
ton across the Missouri river, between
East Omaha and Council Bluffs, which
will be remarkable when completed as
possessing the longest swing span in
the world-fve hundred and twenty
feet-being fifteen feet,longer than the
swing span of the bridge over the
Thames river, in Connecticut. The
structure has been designed by Prof.
J. A. /. Waddell, of Kansas City. The
construction of the pier of this swing
span was completed a few months ago
and presented many features of inter
est to engineers. From a long article
in Engineering News it appears that
the work was begun by sinking a
steel caisson for foundation, much as
A. p. Boiler started work on the
swing span of the large bridge in New
York city year ago. The outer she'll
of the caisson is forty feet in diameter
and the inner twenty feet, the latter
spreading out at the base to join the
former and thus give cutting edge.
Both shells are made of half-inch steel,
reinforced at the lower edge, where
they meet, by two bands of inch steel,
one inside and the other outside. The
two shells were kept in their proper
relative positions by braces running
between them, of which there were
twenty in all, made of half
inch plates. The caisson proper is six
teen feet high. Above this the two
steel cylinders extend to a height of one
hundred feet, making total of one
hundred and sixteen feet from the cut
ting edge to the top of the cylinder.
Above the caisson the plates are re-
duced in thickness to three-eighths of
an inch and are braced by bars and
rods rather than the heavier and more
costly plates required in the lower
part< The friction of the earth against
such long cylinder is very great, and
to reduce it a number of pipes run down
the whole length of the caisson and
shell. These open at the bottom of
the caisson and at intervals of ten feet
above, so that by forcing water
through them it was possible to di-
minsh the hold of the surrounding
earth on the steel. The space between
the two shells was filed with rubble
concrete. The sinking progressed
with no more than the usual delays;
as the shells went down under the
weight of the concrete placed between
them, aided by the removal of the
earth within by means of bucket
dredges, plates were added to the top
until the whole was at the required
depth. The masonry pier built on top
of this cylinder is of limestone backed
by concrete. 1t is thirty-eight feet in
diameter and eighteen and one-half
feet high.

FAME OF FRENCH ARTISTS.
1t Is Increased by the Reproduction of
Their Paintings.

1t Is Increased by the Reproduction of
Their Paintings.
The proportion of artists in France
of wide fame, whose work is frequent
]y seen in print, is undoubtedly greater
than in any other country; and one of
many good reasons for this is certainly
the exceptional skill and experience of
the French in. their use OF reproductive
processes, and especially those which
not only translate the form of the orig
inal, but the color as well, says Scrib-
ner's Magazine. These color reproduc-
tions, printed from metal relief plates
and not from photographic stones-the
method usually resorted to by the rest
of the world-are unique. The secret
of securing. with but few impressions,
the marvellous combinations of color,
the effects of washes, tones and lines.
combined with verve and character
quite indescriba BILE, is one of which only
the French printer artist is complete
master. Just across the border the
German printer has developed litho-
graphy with something of the same en-
thusiasm which the Frenchman has de-
voted to the relief plate. each practi-
cally making few excursions into the
others methods of. accomplishing the
same thing.
A still further reason for this great
superiority is the innate artistic sense
of the French printer, or, more prop
crly, the pressman. In other countries,
where engraver and printer are looked
upon by the illustrator as his natural
enemies, into whose hands drawing
is given grudgingly, the statement,
which is not infrequently made by the
French n he n6I1n or
translation of the original into printed
form is as effective in its way as the
drawing itself, calculated to excite de-
icin

CHANCE OF MARRIAGE


Ten Thousand Women Have Lost 1t, Says
Walter Besant.
Therefore 10000 women have now
lost their chance of marriage Those
fateful words, it is almost unnecessary
to say, are from the pen of Walter
Besant.
He is commenting upon the fact that
the Bank of England has decided to
appoint women as clerks, that various
merchants offices, are doing the same
thing, and that in certain branches of
the civil service women are being en-
ployed. 1t all means, he argues, that
10000 men will be unemployed, will
Seek fresh fields and pastures new.
leaving 10000 women in their places
and 10,o00-other women husbaadlessl
He finds no ray of light in the gloomy
prospect. He admits that the country
will save about e5OO, 900 year by the
change. But" he goes on, 10. 900
possible families are not called into
existence: Now 10000 families NAV
average 10000 children. The country,
therefore, loses the work, brains, pro-.
ductive power, fighting power, colo
nizing power of 40, 600 men and women.
Putting the productive power. of one.
