NOISE OF RAILROAD TRAINS.
German Has Devised y Method for Pro.
wanting L.

German Has Devised = Method for Pre-
venting II.
A German engineer has devised a
method for preventing the noise made
by trains in passing over iron bridges
that may come in for consideration.
He puts decking of one and a quarter
inch planks between the cross girdcrs,
resting on three-inch timbers laid on
the bottom fanges. On the planks a
double layer of felt is laid, which is
fixed to the vertical web of the cross
girder. At the connection with the Cir
der a timber covered joint is placed on
felt. and the whole is holted to the bot
tom llange Four inches of slack gravel
cover the decking, which Is sloped
toward the center OF the bridge for
drainage purposes. A layer of felt Is
laid between the timbers and the planks
they rest on, and the iron work in con-
tact with decking and ballast Is asphalt
This method is found very satisfactory
In reducing the noise Of passing trains.
and it is to be hoped that its principle
will soon be largely adopted in this
country. Already the fact that some
consideration is due to ones neighbOrs
in the matter of piano practice and
other domestic noises is becoming re-
cognized. and quite trade has sprung
up in the "deafening" materials. or

Westminster Gazette: The we'll from

Pats wit and readiness. An Irish wit
ness was being examined as to his
knowledge Of shooting affair. Did
YOU see the shot fired?" the magistrate
asked. mo, sorr, only heard it," was
the evasive reply. "The evidence is not
satisfactory" replied the magistrate
sternly. Stand down" The witness
turned round to leave the box, and
directly his back was turned he laughed
derisively. The magistrate, indignant
at this contempt Of court, called him
back and asked him how he dared to
laugh in court. Did We see me laugh,
your honor?" queried the offender.
"No, sir, but heard you," was the
irate reply. THAT evidence is not sat

twinkle in his eye. And this time
everybody laughed except the magis.

From the Washington Times The
largest brandy still iO the world is In
Southern California 1t is located on
the famous FL Pinal vineyard, and has
only been completed about one year.
To look at the great concern one sees
only conglomeration OF pipes, boilers
and tanks. When running in full blast
the still is capable OF converting $1,000
gallons of wine into brandy every
twenty-four hours When one looks at
it he cannot help wondering what be-
comes Of all the brandy that must be
manufactured in the world. In a
month they could turn out enough Of
the stuff TO put the whole population OF
a city like New York under the in
firence OF liquor. II required over four
years to put up the still.
