SPANNING NIAGARA'S GORGE.
THE UPPER SUSPENSION BRIDGE REPLACED AND
A NEW STRUCTURE BEING BUILT
AT LEWISTON.

Three enormous bridges span the noisy torrent
being built to replace the old Lewiston suspen-
sion bridge. connecting the village of Lewiston
with Queenstown, which was destroyed in a ter
rife gale which swept the Niagara peninsula on
February l. 1861. From engineering point
Of view perhaps the most interesting OF the four
is the steel arch structure built to replace the
old railway suspension bridge which had
spanned the river just at the beginning of the
whirlpool rapids since 1850 But that fin
ishcd and opened with an Information celebra-
ton a little over a year ago, and since then the
upper suspension bridge has been replaced ana
work on the Lewiston bridge has made favor
able progress
The picture herewith presented furnishes an
excellent idea Of the design Of the latest struct-
ure completed. but the imagination must pct-
ure the bold ingenuity of the designers and the
fearlessness Of the Workmen who We're engaged
In boiling the huge structure together. 1t was
conceded several years ago that new bridge
q necessity and although plans were made
and foundations actually built. the work was
interrupted, not to bc taken up again until about
a year ago. 1t was then pushed forward, with
travel unhindered and the finishing touches
have just recently been added In addition To-
the roadway for carriages and pedestrians.
the new structure is also designed for cleo
trio street railway.
Great things are expected from the bridge
which is being built over the river at Lewiston.
New-York tribune., 1898-12-04

heaving up and down in a terrific gale 1t was
seen that a mistake had been made in not
refastening the guys, but it was then too iate
and only two three hours later the huge
structure broke in the centre and large part OF
it fell with a crash into the river. 1t was quite
possible to repair the damage, but the venture
had been so Improbable that no steps in thaA
direction ever were taken.
The new structure will be single deck ana
trolley track will be laid across II TO provide u
link in the proposed electric railway around the
gorge from the Falls to Lewiston.
The company which is building the new bridge
is incorporated under the name Of the Lewiston
Connecting Bridge Company. It's president IS

New-York tribune., 1898-12-04

Half century ago this little village had every
appearance Of having a glorious future before IT,
Both Lewiston and Queenstown are only five
miles from Niagara Falls, and back in the thr
ties their activity was due to the fact that it
from these points travellers from the West
began the portage around the falls of Niagara
and the rapids As years rolled on. however,
travel was diverted to other routes and the two
little villages lapsed into state Of lethargy
from which they have never been thoroughly
awakened True in lSJi and 1852 a little life
infused into the community for at that time
company with abundance Of energy con
ncctcd the two places 10y suspension bridge
built high over the waters Of the gorge. For ten
years the bridge swung from cliff to cliff, but
one year followed another it became evident
that as revenuc-earner the enterprise was a
decided failure.
In the early part Of 1864 the ice came down the
river IN such huge masses that the gorge be-
came congcstcd. and for fear that it would tear
the guys 0f the bridge away from their
chorages the superintendent ordered them loos-
cned and pulled up away from the threatened
danger. Swept by the current, the ice. after
lingering a few days. was carried down stream
ana out into Lake Ontario. This removed the
danger to the guys but. as it afterward devel-
opcd the danger to the structure above had
only just begun The officials failed to rocog-
nize the fac; that with the guys loose the bridge
was in danger OF being wrecked by the wind.
Only a few days. however, were sufficient to
teach them their mistake.
THE OLD STRUCTURE DESTROYED.
The bridge was opened only during the day,
and one morning when the bridge tenders re-
ported for work they found the mighty structure

bandsmen by the occurrence Of vacancies Until
they are eighteen years old the boys should
live with their families if the latter live on or
near the post. The musical education Of the
boys would be given by bandsman of the first
or second class under the direction Of the band
master. The boys should be required to have.

common-school education. There would be OBJ
tained in this way a constant renewal of the
bands with boys brought up in the service haV-
ing service traditions their home always in the
Army, consequently much more likely to remain
In the service up to the age of retirement.
DIFFICULTIES OF GETTING GOOD MEN.
Talking on occasion with Mr.. Sousa and
on another with MIR. Herbert | told by
each OF them that il would be hopeless to ex
pect 10 obtain good men as bandmasters under
conditions at all like thOse which exist at pres
ent; that no musician of repute one of sound
education would accept such place. This is
easy 10 understand The chief musician. the
bandmaster Of to-day. is only an enlisted man.
He cannot associate with officers the class tow
ard which his taste and education lead HIM. ana
he cs not wish as rule. to associate with those
below him. The pay. too. is far below what IL
should be to acquire thoroughly competent men.
Let il be remembered that $40 or 500 per week
s no uncommon wages FOR competent men IN
firSt-class organizations. for men VINO are mere
ly performers, without any obligatory kh"Wl-
edge of the higher branches OF music as an arr.
The musical knowledge which man VINO :

to the Examining Board to consider the candi-
dates from the social side and in the matter of
general intelligence, outside Of music alone.
The French Army is :Ee only one which has
regularly appointed assistant bandmasers. The
custom Of that service is excellent. The general
rule is to have one Of the frst-class. or senior,
bandsmen act when the bandmaster Is away.
This is a poor arrangement. The bandsman
may be an excellent performer and yet not
possess single qualification necessary for a
conductor Whoever replaces the bandmaster
temporarily should have the education neces-
sary TO do. his work. or at least much Of 1t.
When the bandmaster is present the assistant
takes his place in the band and plays his in
strument. The assistant bandmaster should
have the pay and allowances OF the present
chief musician He should be required to pass
examination similar to that of the bandmas-
ter. but not so extended. The assistant band
master should be eligible for promotion 10 the
rank of bandmaster after a service OF three
years as assistant. The same recommendation
should be made in his case. by his immediate
commanding officers. as is now required for the
promotion Of non-commissioned officers. Bands

eligible to compete for the grade of assistdn;
