CENTRAL's NEW BRIDGE.
Wants To Construct One over Com
mnnlPRXy Avenue.

IL
Chairman Cone of the Committee on
Streets of the Street and Water Board has
received petition from the Central Railroad
Company requesting that it be permitted to
construct new bridge over its tracks az
Communipaw avenue. The company desires
to construct wider bridge and one which
at the same time will give more headroom.
Some of the large engines only clear the
bridge spans by few inches. The company
believes it to be menace to the lives of its
freight employees. 1t is said that the Con-
solidated Traction Company also figures in
the proposition The proposed new bridge is
of sufficient width to permit the operation of
a double track system to the shore front, but
it leaves very little room for carriage
way.
Commissioner Cone believes the new
bridge is necessity and will prove beneficial.
He will insist, however, upon the company
making it of sufficient width not only to ac-
commodate double car tracks for the trolley
cars but also leave carriage way wide
enough to allow trucks to cross the bridge
at the same time as trolley cars.

CLEVELAND, June IA. lS94.-The IRON

there cannot be a general resumption
of iron making west of the Alleghenles. Az
present only half dozen furnaces in the
Pittsburg district are in operation and one
that was active in the Shenango Valley has
been compelled TO bank. The question
of most immediate interest is as to
the price OF Bessemer iron after Pitts

Teachers Popularity Contest
Booming-Hoboken Holding
Back For the End.

Counting today's coupon, which is No. 22,
there will be printed in the Teachers Popu-
larity Contest nine coupons more, making a
total of 80. This last coupon will be printed
Saturday, June 23. The polls will close
Monday June 25, at 10 NJ, and the next day
the Judges, whose names will be announced
next Monday or Tuesday, will canvass the
vote. In THE NEWS of Wednesday, June
27, the name of the winner will be an
nounced ''Who will be the winnerw is the
question that is being asked by great num-
ber of people in this city and Hoboken. The
rivalry between the two cities is very spirit
ed, Hoboken asserting one of her fair daugh-
ters will win, while Jersey Cityites as posi-
lively declare that the prize won't go further
north than Nineteenth street, which means
it will remain in this city. All this remains
to be seen The contest so far has been very
successful, but will be more pronounced as
the end draws near. There is
every reason why it should be.
The prize is most liberal one, and with the
and instructive time. The two trips THE
NEWS has referred to are excellent, but, Of
course, the winner may select her own tour,
a fact which makes the prize doubly valu-
able. As to travelling alone, we referred to
that matter at the outset, and showed it
was no unusual thing for lady to do; fur
ther, that tourist agents are always willing
to introduce their guests one to another, SO
that young lady sometimes 1sat has has the pleas,
family or lady, and in this way is made to
feel at home. But Jersey City teachers are
brave little ladies, and if the winner, deter
mines she is going to travel alone. she is, and
that ends the matter.

THE BNGLIsHMAN IN TRAINING.

One is continually reminded of ;'training"
in seeing how the hard working Englishman,
whether in politics, in literature, in business,
or in one of the professions, cares for him
self and is cared for in his house: Such men
as Gladstone, Balfour and Lord Roseoery, to
mention only well known examples, are, SO
to speak, regularly groomed, and kept in
condition physically and mentally, for their
arduous duties. They take frequent hoh-
days; everything that paid service can do,
from keeping their clothes to attending to
their correspondence, they are relieved Of.
Gladstone is famous woodsman,. Balfour
plays golf, Rosebery amuses himself with a
racing stable. Chamberlain is a successful
grower of orchids, and thus they make a
business of recreation. In England these
engrossing avocations are deemed to be a
wise economy of power;' with US they are
looked upon as frivolous waste Of energy
