level through large number Of spirit
levels, which will be permanently at
tached to the steel work, on the lower
side, where they can be constantly in
spected by the foremen in charge, who
will thus in a measure, do their own
surveying. The earth and rock exca-
waited will be hoisted to the surface
from the interior of the cassion, and eli
the time the mesons will be at work on
top. and always at or about the level
of the ground, thus saving, among
other things, much handling Of heavy
stones, as under the old method Ill
stone would have to he lowered to the
bottom of the pit. AS the cassion des-
cends cushion of fine dry sand will
be kept between it's outside edge and
the walls of the excavation, to prevent
cavirg, the sand following the cassion
as it sinks by gravity. When the cas-
sion finally reaches the level of the pit
bottom, it will be filed in solidly with
concrete and fire brick, and then steel
connections will be attached and car
ried up through the concrete backing
of the masonry, thereby stiffening the
latter and saving a great excess Of

would have to be very much heavier

be 500 square, located on the river
bank at the southwest corner OF the
present building. The vestibule en-
trance, 6x20 feet, will be on the south
side. The building will be of stone,
laid in regular courses, backed with

thirty-two feet high from floor TO

light having something like one hum
dred windows en- all four sides, as well
as a sky-light. The inside wood WORK
will be of yellow pine, vanished 50 as

At yesterdays session of the City
Water Board the contract for the big
well and the construction of the build
ing for the new addition to the pump
ing station was awarded to l.. G.. Hal
lock, at his bid of $37, S07 for the COM
plete work except machinery. Of this
will cost $27, 120, and the building s10.-
6S7. Work on the ground will COM
mence about next Tuesday, and will
be pushed energetically by the con-
tractor.
To commence at the beginning, the
connection between the we'll and tho
river will be by thirty-six inch open
ing, through which water will run by
gravity into the we'll. LIN the present
well, there is no gravity delivery, and
the water Is pumped from the river
by main force, which imposes an addi-
tional burthen upon the machinery, and
means an added expenditure for steam,
etc. The bottom of the new well will
be about seven feet below extreme low
water in tie river.
The well itself will be an immense
affair in the matter of excavation
alone. 1t will be siXty-one feet deep
below the floor ,evel of the building,
and will have an inside diameter of
thirty-six feet The extreme diameter
of the excavation will be about forty
three or fOrty-four feet. A feature Of
the well new in this portion of the
country, and In some essential parti
culars absolutely new everywhere, has
been worked out by Engineer A. L.
White and c. w. Lohse, his draughts-
man, and will result in a saving to the
Board of between $4,000 and $4,000,
all Of which illustrates the economy of
having a competent engineer in these
little matters. The usual plan of con-
structing we'll such as is here requir-
ed is to first make an excavation TO
the required depth, shore up the walls
with very heavy and expensive tim
bers, which are always in the road, and
then begin at the bottom and lay the
masonry, which must be heavy in pro
portion to the depth of the excavation.
Mr.. White has adopted the cassion me-
thod of doing this work. which is not
new. but he is going to use steel cas-
sion, instead of one of timber, which
Is new. His cassion is being built by
Chew & Lewis. and IS made of half
inch steel, and when completed will
weigh 22,170 pounds. and be held toge-
Their by 2,496 rivets. 1t will be made in
sections, and then hauled to the site
of the excavation and there set up and
put together. When completed the ex-
cavation will be commenced beneath
the oassiou, and - u sinks the ma

The age-herald., 1898-07-24

Duchess of Manchester had been approach ed by Charles Henry Wilson, the richest shipbuilder in England. He desired to ask that her son be allowed to marry his daughter. The duke had paid his respects to the daughter and 1t was plainly to be seen that they were not cold to each other. If the marriage could be a ranged, when it would be most pleasant. The duke was rather passive in the matter, so also Miss Joan who had as many suitors in London as an American belle at Newport.
 The Wilson's for more than three genera tions had been foremost in the world among shipowners. They were extremely wealthy, the foundations of their fortunes having been laid many years ago. Besides owning the Wilson line, they leased steam- ships to other companies, and their affairs were connected closely with the extensive ship-owning concerns of the Leyland es- tate and Sir Christopher Furness. MT. Will son had town house in Mayfair, and a large country estate near Scarborough He was related to the Wilson's who came into prominence in the Tranby Croft baccarat scandal which resulted dlsastrously for Lieutenant Colonel Sir William Gordon Cumming of the Scots Fusilier Guards.
 The marriage was arranged, and the wed- ding day was set for July.
 What broke it off no one knows Nor positively that it is broken off. It might have been the indifference of the couple, which, had the families been less willing.

died, leaving a beautiful and still youthful widow and three children, William Angus Drogo, Jacqueline Montagu and Lady Ava Montagu Lady Ava died shortly after at the age of 16, and was brought from Nice to France in Willy K. Vanderbilt's yacht, so it will be seen that although Mrs. Willy K. and the duchess had fallen out, William K. Vanderbilt and the Duchess of Man chester were still on good terms.
 ERA OF SADNESS.
 His yacht escorted the funeral cortege of Lady Alva from Nice to France, and after the sad occasion the yacht was placed at the disposal of the Duchess of Manchester for cruise on which she and her weeping children might regain their health and spirits.
 But the star of the Duchess of Manches- ter had passed its ascendency. Misfortune brooded over her. Ready to take her place again in London society, freed of an invalid child and an unpleasant husband, she was attacked by i'll health. A stroke of paraly- sis confined her to her room, succeeded by another which was more serious.
 She is now still suffering from the effects of this stroke, and is said by those who are in the confidence of the household to be a helpless paraytic. Her condition is kept secret, and when she appears in pulp lie, which is very rare, she recines in her carriage in such a way that her ndispo- sition is scarcely to be noticed.
 The pride and hope of this titled Amerl-
The age-herald., 1898-07-24

But soon, in some mysterious way, cool ness sprung up between these two friends, as coolnesses will. It happened during 8 long visit to New York, when the viseount- ess made her home with her children in the palatial mansion of Mrs. Willy K. Van derbilt on Fifth avenue. The details of the trouble were never known, but it was cer- tain that Mrs. Willy K. and the vscountess quarreled violently, and that the next day the viscountess went back to England, talk ing with her her children, her trunks and her troubles.
 It is certain also that the two had some serious trouble, for in all the years since they have never spoken.
 On her return to London began again the reign of the viscountess as a London beau ty. In 1890 the old Duke of Manchester died, and the Viscount Vaudeville suc- ceeded to the title of Duke of Manchester. He had little upon which to support it, but his wife managed so well that it appeared much greater than 1t was. The viscount lived only two years after he became the eighth Duke of Manchester, and in 1892 he

The Dashng Young Duke is Again Heart Whole and

London, July 19.-The Duke of Manches- ter is again for sale.
 The cables say that his engagement to Miss Joan Wilson, to whom he was to be married early in July, is broken off, and that young man has started on two years tour around the world, while the young woman Is solacing herself with the gaie- ties of the London season. Every day since his good yacht sailed away the bright, pi- quant and petite Miss Wilson has poured tea for London's elite, and every evening she is dancing with Rrftain's elect.
 Now, say the cables, would she do this if she were a love-lorn lassie, and why should a love-lorn lad sail far over the seas when everything would be gained by staying at home? Why, if they are still engaged, was the wedding postponed and what does this distance and coolness por- tend? Only this. That William Angus Drogo Montagu, ninth duke of Manchester,
