renewed interest in this subject, but have
been attended with expressions of leading
officials OF England and France especially
showing great anxiety for some concerted
action which shall bring about an increas-
ed use OF silver through international

GREAT ENGINEERING FEAT.
New Railroad Bridge shifted Into Place
In Two Minutes Twenty eight Seconds.

What is believed to be one of the
undertaken successfully in Philadelphia
recently on the New York division of
the Pennsylvania railroad. The ola iron
span In the bridge crossing the Schuyl-
kill river in the Fairmount park was re-
placed by new structure of steel in
the space of minutes and % seconds,
accurately timed.
Owing to the heavy equipment which
the railroads are adopting to meet the
demandsHof heavier traffic the old span
in the bridge was deemed too light. A
new steel span has been in progress of
construction for some months on false
work erected in the river alongside of
and parallel to the old one. 1t is known
as Pratt truss span.
The problem presented itself how to
substitute the new structure for the old.
1t was effected between the passage of
two way trains over the bridge nine
minutes apart. In that short time the
structures were raised by hydraulic
jacks and settled on l36 iron rollers
three feet in diameter which moved on
two tramways. These tramways extend
ed on the opposite side of the bridge far
enough to hold the old span when the
new one was shifted into its place.
At given signal stationary engines
set the shifting process in motion, and
it was mpleted smoothly and success
fully in less than 21s minutes. The
| weight on the tramways was 100 tons.
The tracks were reiointed and the entire
operation was effected without delay to
the next train to arrive.
The new span is double tracked and is
242 feet long. % feet wide and 30 feet
above the surface of the river.-New

English Roads.

English roads are good because they
are well built and well cared for. is the
conclusion arrived at by writer who
has been Investigating the subject. He
says that they are the finest anywhere
in the world Some of the highways
leading out Of Bath were made by the
Romans. and the other highways are
OF scientific construction. with deep
foundations and ample provisions for
draining. Besides, they receive con-
slant supervision and care. Every
county council has a standing commit
tee on roads, which take charge of the
highways and keep them in repair. The
committee is divided into sub-commi,-
tees. to each of which is assigned a
district.
There is an inspector for each divis-
ion. who employs a force Of road mend
ers and holds each responsible for
portion of the road al Figned to him.
The road mender lives in cottage on
the line of the highway which he is re-
Qured to keep in order. He goes over
the road every day and removes in
barrow everything that is unsightly.
After each heavy rain he looks out for
breaks, and mends them by dumping
loads of flint where needed. Supplies
Of flint are kept along the road at in
teryals, ready for the use of the road
mender. He watches the road the year
round, and if there is any neglect, he
receives sharp warning from the in
spector. This is the English system of
maintaining good roads, and it will
be necessary TO have a similar system
in this country before the roads here
will compare with those of the older
country.-Baltimore Sun.

Rats Locked for, safety

A Waterbury Comm genius has had
his hat stolen or exchanged" so often
that he set his wits to work and has
evolved a hat rack for hotels or other
semi-public places which effectually
prevents theft. 1t consists of an oak
cabinet, with brass mountings, similar
to the hat-rack used in large hotels, ex-
cept that there is a separate compart-
ment for each hat. When a person
comes into the hotel he places his hat
in one of the compartments and pulls
down in front Of it slide similar to
that of roller-top desk. This releases
the key, which is otherwise fastened in
the lock, and he puts it in his pocket
On leaving the hotel he unlocks his hat,
the slide springs up to it's place again
and there you are"

A Strange Fish.

Africa still contains much that is un-
known and mysterious, notwithstand-
ing the many explorations and discov-
cries of recent years. In Lake Tan
ganyiha, for instance, there lives a
species of large fish which rushes at
the paddles Of passing boats, but Of
which no description has yet been pub
lished. For years travellers had heard
about this fish from the natives. but
Mr.. J. e. S. Moore appears to have been
the first European to see it. During
his recent explorations of Tanganyika
he saw the mysterious fish rushing at
the paddles, but learned little more
about it than the fact of its existence,
although he caught enormous numbers
of fish of various species, some weigh
ing as much as sixty pounds.
