OLD BRICKWORK.
Remarkable Strength and Tenacity in

Strength and Tenacity in a
Liverpool Building.
In demolislling part of the Albert
warehouse in Liverpool, belonging to the
Mcrs"y dock and harbor board, it oc-
Cured to the assistant engineer in charge
OF tho work to make some investigation
into the strength of the old brickwork.
The wall was built about fifty years ago
of hard -n;,de bricks, laid in ground NOR
tar made with Flintshire lime. This lime
is i'll high degree hydraulic, and has
reputation of making mortar Of exception
ally good quality. The Journal of the
Royal Institute of British Architects.
which describes the investigation, states
that the engineer conceived the happy
thought of leaving Il piece of it in the
form OF horizontal beam, having a
tWelve-foot span and measuring about
TWO rect square in section, seven courses
IN the height Of two-foot wall. The
ends OF the beam were not cut free from
the rest of the work. This beam was then
loaded with all the weight that could
conveniently be piled upon it, with appre-
ciablr detection or other sign of weakness
resulting. Two courses were then cut
off and the whole weight again put on,
but without other result The beam was
further reduced by Il course. leaving it
four courses, Or fourteen inches deep,
and the ends were also cut free from the
other work-thc mortar beds of the
twelve inch bearings beling left un-
touched. A centrally placed load of five
tons fifteen hundred-weight was then
gradually piled upon it, and was borne for
several days without apparent effect upon
the brickwork. Finally the weight was
Increased to six tons nine hundred
weight, twenty-threc pounds, which was
sustained for thirty hours, when the beam
collapsed during the night, and came
down in three pieces more like broken
timber than anything else Other tests
were made with similarly astonishing re-
suits. but the above are sufficient to show
what really first-class patchwork in n.y.
'}raulic lime will stand.-providencc Jour

Weight Of Rain.

An engineer has pointed cut that one
inch of rain falling upon an area of one
square mile is equivalent to nearly H.
100000 gallons, weighing 145,2OO,00O
pounds, Or $4,000 tons. Assuming this
water to have fallen from clouds abou,
half Il mile, or say 5000 feet above the
earth, we have for the energy represented
by it about $4,000 horse power. With
pumping machinery working at the low
rate of consumption of two pounds of coal
per horse power per hour, it would take
POO gross tons Of coal to raise the water
represented by one inch of rain on
square mile to the assumed height Of 5000
feet. AS Il matter of fact rain often
falls from clouds which are at much
greater height than 5000 feet above the
ground. so that the figures just given are
