zen, Mr.. Joseph II. Mann, finds time
from the cares OF business to indulge
In, we should say that 1t is only fair to
the general public for steamship, rail-
road and transportation companies
generally to give due notice when Mr..
Mann has taken passage In order that
the rest of us may go by another route
or at another time.

Wins LaureIs as a Civil Engineer.

Deputy Circuit Clerk Chas. Stuart, OF
Greensboro, received letter this morn
ing from his brother, Mr.. Alfred A.
Stuart, who lives in Brooklyn, N. Y.
Mr.. Stuart is an old Greensboro boy and
is recognized as one Of the most promi-
nent civil engineers in the country. He
has just completed very large bridge
in which was the deepest pneumatic
work that he has ever undertaken. II
was l08 feet below the water level with
a caisson, the dimensions OF the caisson
being SO by 70 feet and SO feet high,
carrying weight to the extent of $4,000
tons. When finished sinking two hun.
dred and fifty men were required to man
the work below the water, and a most
singular thing, which very seldom occurs
in the construction OF large bridges, not
a man was killed or otherwise injured.
Mr.. Stuart has also under construction
on the anchorage for the same bridge
large amount of stone work in which he
has over $4,000 yards of cut stone
masonry to lay. 1t will require about
five hundred men to do this, including
a large force that is at work at the quarry
about two hundred miles up the state.
When this is finished 1t will be one Of
the largest pieces OF bridge masonry in
existence.-Owensboro Inquirer.

Wheat VS. Corn,

Messrs. Brooks and Smith of the Mass
station are testing the merits OF wheat
and corn as exclusive food for laying
hens. The trial is not yet complete, but
the result 30 iar, contrary to theory,
seemed to favor the use of corn. Tests
at the same station comparing cut bone
and dried meat indicate that dried meat
is good substitute for the cut bone and
is safer, because too liberal feeding of
the cut bone proves injurious on account
of the fat contained in it.
