seems much more suitable than the in

weight of about 1000 pounds to drop
from about the same height as that
from which the cone was dropped. The
effect Of this procedure Is to drive the
more liquid portion of the concrete
into the walls OF the pits and thus,
when the latter are filled and the con-
crete has become hard, the foundation
consists not only of the buried pillars
OF stone and cement, but also OF the
compressed earth partly charged with
cement. This method Of making foua-
dations has been used with much sue
cess In various portions OF Paris. some
OF the locations being considered very
difhcult, owing to the soft nature CT
the soil. and the system is now being
used to prepare the ground for the erec-
tion OF some of the buildings for the
exposition OF 1900. The effect of the
pounding OF the earth Is said not to ex-
tend TO suficisnt distance to disturb
adjacent structures and in number
of cases the method has been used In
the immediate vicinity Of old and weak
buildings without apparent injury. II
Is possible that this system of com
preston may be Of service in many
locations where the load is not toe
great, and 1t appears to be OF especial
applicability to foundations for tenn
porary structures. avoiding the neces.

ager claims that the little fellow will

of twenty-five miles, his competitors
to relay fer that distance and he to
travel the entire distance. Boston, New

and other cities will arrange big mid

complete his list at the present outlook.
