An instrument which, as the name de-
notes, is intended for the arrest of
bleeding in surgical operations, has been
perfected by Lawson TAFT, of London.
A platinum wire, arranged to carry a
current of electricity, is inclosed in the
blades Of a pair of steel forceps or any
other requisite instrument, the wire be-
ing insulated by he'd of burnt pipe
clay. A current of suitable voltage is
turned on, the artery seized and com
pressed and in q few seconds the tissues
and arterial walls are SO agglutinated
that the passage of blood is rendered
impossible. The temperature employed
is about 1S0 degrees Fahrenheit, So that
1t will be seen that the principle is fun
damentally different from that of cleo
trical cauterizing instruments. 1t is
stated that by Mr.. Tait's instrument
the necessity of ligature is removed,
and new and completely effective
method is placed in the hands of the
surgeon for the treatment of surface
oozing.

solid masonry, they Will be built up OF
lattice work of steel upon masonry
foundation.
The towers alone of the old bridge
weigh ten times as much as the entire
steel superstructure. In the new span
the weight of the towers and super
structure viii he approximately the
same. Improvements upon the present
bridge have been hampered immensely
by the fact that its approaches are all
built of solid masonry, defying change,
alteration and improvement as ef-
fectively as they defy the gnawing
tooth of time. In the new all the ap-
proaches as well as the suspended struc-
ture itself will be of steel, and sufficient
land will be reserved on both sides to
allow room for future changes and to
insure against interruption of traffic
by fires and accidents on neighboring
property. What is more, the approaches
will be separate trusses capable of sup
porting their own weight. The cable,
after leaving the central span, falls to
the earth level and is clamped to its
mighty anchorage within distance of
600 feet, acting merely as backstay
and supporting no weight whatever.
Because of the deeper loop which the
cable will assume it will be so much
larger than in the old bridge, as might
be expected. Each cable will havea di-
ameter of 20 inches, as against 1874
inches upon the Roebling masterpiece,
1t has been enormously stated that
these enormous steel ropes would be
built entire at the wire works and
brought and swung over the bridge in

The work, thatthe new bridge will make
the most radical departure, not only
from the old one, but from every pre-
Nionsly existing structure in the world.
When completed it will take its place,

The old bridge has two footways, two
carriage ways and two railroad tracks
The new bridge will have six railroad
tracks, two carriage ways, two footways
and two bicycle paths. Two of the rail
road tracks are for elevated cars, which
without doubt, will secure connections
on both sides of the river so that pas

Jamaica to Yonkers, without once de

A Popularity of New York.

There is popularity about the business
houses in Broadway which exists in no
other great thoroughfare in the world
And that Is that SO many business
blocks are erected without porches or gal
leries.
From the Battery to Thirty fifth street
in this great thoroughfare there is not
building which has porch attached.
Numbers have duck awnings and various
other kinds of sun shades, but the wooden
or corrugated iron porches, which are SO
popular in other American cities, are as
strange to Broadway as are 30 story build
fngs to the country, and there is none of
them in the country New York Herald

POETRY.
The Bee and the Boy.
BY MRS. NJ. 70. HAzEN.

Two bees flew away. one time in May,
To take q journey together;
And one flew here aud one flew there,
And cared they nothing whether or where,
So they could journey together.
The sun did shine and the day was fine,
As away they flew together;
But one few east, and one flew west,
And ne'er thought they whatever was best
If only 'twere pleasant weather.
Away they few and apart they grew,
So they could not help each other
boy came along, with whistle and song;
The bee 1t was small, the boy was strong
What race they had together.
The boy chased the bee with frolc and glee,
As away they whired together.
"Ill catch YOU" says he, but sting from the bee
Made the boy cry out, " o. dear, dear me-
Wen nevermore play together"
So he struck the bee, then away ran he.
40 where shall go, whther2"
The bee made reply, =" fear / shall die;
My wings they're torn, never can fly,
Such trouble we've had together"
Now boys, I say. you must mind Away
And get on well together.
Be good each day, be kind in play
Never get angry cross words say,
Then Happy you'li be together

"She saw it coming, l suppose. l

There was pause, during which they

"And don't you think you are jump

after while.

There was long silence after this

He Questioned the Jury.

Judge John Gibbons has more than usu-

furnishes an illustration of rustic intell-

fore him. The case was damage suit.

the plaintiff, was put on the stand to tes-
tify as to a line fence. he gave his testi-
mony in SO low a tone Of voice that Judge
Gibbons said to him:
