An Important Feature.

A certain doctor, living in the upper
part of Utica, N. y, has a bright and
observing four-year-old daughter. She
has a brothersa few a older of
whom she is very fond, and who, for
her amusement, sometimes draws
pictures on slate Or paper. A few
evenings ago he was thus engaged, and
essaycd to draw an elephant. He
shaped the body, head and legs, and
before adding the proboscis stopped a
moment to look at it. The little girl
had been watching every stroke Of the
pencil with great interest, waiting.
patiently for him to finish, and when
he stopped, and she thought he was
done, exclaimed: "Why, Johnnie, you
fordot to put on his satchel!"

Setting q Good Example.

Emperor William of Germany, it
seems, will not visit the theater on
Sunday. While OF his recent trip to
Italy the managers of the Theatre
Fenice, in Venice, gave a special enter
tainment in his honor on a Sunday, but
the audience waited in vain for King
Humbert and the emperor. 1t was
learned later that he had called in
stead on Countess Annina Morsini, and
told her, according to Italian papers,
that he had not attended a theatrical
performance on Sunday since he had
assembled the throne,

DID NOT INTERRUPT TRAFFIC
A Railroad Bridge In switzerland Weigh
ing 4 Tons Raised Five Feet.

A Railroad Bridge In switzerland Weigh
ing 4 Tons Raised Five Feet.
The raising Of a bridge in Switzer-
land upon the line of the International
railway, from Paris to Vienna, has at
tracted considerable attention from
the methods pursued, which are de-
scribed by Locomotive Engineering.
The occasion for the change was that
the river crossed-the Rhine-had lost
in the sectional area of the passage be-
tween the piers about twenty-five per
cent. in thirteen years, owing TO the
deposition Of gravel and sediment,
while the high water level had risen
to such an extent as to pile floating de-
bris six feet deep or the bridge floor in
times of flood. The alterations includ-
ed some reinforcements, besides the
raising of the whole structure about
five feet. The bridge was continuous
over a center pier, and had two main
vertical posts there and four vertical
end posts. To each of these posts an
inclined strut was attached in a trans
verse vertical plane, presenting a SUR
face for the top of a hydraulic jack to
act upon. Eight special one hundred
ton jacks were used, with an eight
inch stroke and a working pressure of
four hundred atmospheres, the piston
being nearly sevcn-tenths in diameter.
The fluid used was a mixture of water,
alcohol and %glycerine. Sixteen men
operated the jacks, their movements
being synchronized by a code of sig
nails, designed to secure uniformity of
action. The bridge was raised a foot
or two by short lifts, followed up by
thorough blocking, and then building
under n course of cut-stonc masonry.
The total load was five hundred and
forty-six tons, and the maximum load
on a single 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 undergoing re-
pairs, and their speed was limited to
three miles an hour in crossing the
bridge. In addition, a special block
system was organized upon that sec
ton of the line upon which the bridge
is located, SO that operations could be
suspended and the track restored five
minutes before the arrival Of a train at
the site.

CAT HUNTS q NEW FAD.
Cruel New York Dudes and Terrier Dogs
on Nocturnal Exneditions.

OA NOCGurn&l EXDe0lC1OHS. NJ
The g~ilt-edge youths Of Gotham
have adopted a new means Of noctur-
nal amusement that is as brutal as
they think it delightful said a New
York broker to a writer for the Wash
lngton Star. ssThe latest fad is cat
hunting. You are familiar, of course,
with the crusade against cats which
the women of New York started some
time ago from humanitarian motives.
They regarded every cat that prowled
around the city as beng homeless, and,
therefore, tired of life, so they went
around catching them and putting
them to death by means of anms-
thetics. The young bloods have fol-
lowed their example, but in a differ
ent manner. Homeless felines are their
objects for humiliation also, but they
use bull terriers and fox terriers in
stead Of chloroform. You can imagine
what a fight there is when a vicious
dog Of either of the species named
tackles a cat who recognizes that, it
must battle for it's life. The oun
men who pursue this brutal pastime
make regular engagements with each
other for a cat hunt, and really dress
for it. They wear old clothes and
rubber-soled tennis Shoes, SO that they
may keep up with their dogs and not
attract policemen with their noise in
running. l heard two well-known
young men at the Brunswick one night
