iicicnt In the latest methods OF instruct
Ing the pupils under them and In hav-
inE better discipline IN the schoolroum

the teachers 10 become more cnthusi-
lstic In their chosen profession. Every
teacher now employed In the county
schools has been required 10 pass u
rigid examination In all the common
branches OF "A public school education

MOVES A RAILROAD BRIDGE.
Remarkable Feat Of Engineering
Performed by MiIwau-
kee Man.

A remarkable feat of bridge moving
was accomplished al Milwaukee by the
Chicago q Northwestern Railway com
pany under the direction of j. 5. Rob
inson, division superintendent Of engi-
neers. The bridge was a ssingle-track
draw, weighing 215 tons, and was re-
moved distance of 25o feet to a new
foundation in the quick time Of two
hours and fifty-seven minutes.
The structure was hoated on two
scows. one on either side Of the center.
which were sunk with 10000 gallons o.
water. With the scows in proper posi-
ton. the water was pumped out and the
bridge gradually lifted from its founda-
ton and towed to its new resting place
by two tugs.
The bridge has rendered service since
1850 and is still in good condition, being
removed to make way for double-track
structure of the latest pattern.
