Baltimore, Jan. 23.-One of the largest

ed In many years has been let by the
receivers OF the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad. In order to place the lines
west of the Ohio river In proper shape
to handle the heavy freight equipment
that Is being used east OF the river

build 81 bridges between Benwood, W.

might be rapidly pushed to compile
ton II was decided TO divide the work
among three companies. The Youngs-
town Bridge Company of Youngstown
will erect 81 bridges on the Central
Ohio division between the Ohio river
and Newark. Ohio: the Pencoyd Bridge
Works was awarded the II bridges on
the Lake Erie division. Newark to

In place by September. Nearly six
thousand tons of steel will be needed

MISS FLORA SHAW.
Something About the Colonial Editor Of

somsthinE About the Colonial Editor Of
London's Thundersr.
Miss Flora Shaw. colonial editor of
the London Times. made the entire
journey from London to Dawson City
in thirty-one days. says the Montreal
Herald; braved the privations and
dangers Of the Skaguay alone and un-
aided, travelled the long miles Of tho
Yukon, to Dawson and back. without
female companions, and without reli-
ance on other than her own indomi-
table spirit and her trust in the innate
chivalry Of the race. And when II is
added that not an insulting word or
look greeted her throughout the Jour-
ney the Justification for her faith is
complete. The stories which Miss
Shaw will have to tell Of her expert
ences during that toilsome six weeks
In the far northwest. Of how rough
minors kept unruly tongues In check
when In her presence, waited at dan
gerous places on the trail to help her
pass them. conhded to her their sim
pie tales of loved ones left behind"
and In q hundred little ways and by a
hundred little ofIices showed their sym
pathy and respect-these stories will
be such a. to increase the readers
faith In the basic soundness Of human
nature. Miss Shaw is apparently
strong believer In the axiom that "she
travels the faster who travels alone"
and in her journeys for the Times In
variably travels as an individual unit
attaching herself to no party and not
assuming the responsibilities and de-
lays that might be Incident to COM
panionship. But It must not be as
sumed from this that Miss Shaw Is OF
a masculine character. On the con-
trary, she is an English lady, quick in
all the sympathies OF her sex, but en-
dowed by nature with a power of will.
of observation and OF expression that
have found ample verge and room in
the subject to which she has devoted
all her energ!es-the relations OF Eng
land and her colonies. with particular
reference to the development of the
world empire that is evolving from
the mother land and her beyond-sea
possessions. To this work Miss Shaw
has brought an enthusiasm which car
ries her through difficulties that would
daunt almost all mankind, as well as
womankind. Her reward has been
found in the unique position she holds
as one OF the leading authorities on
those questions, now of such pressing
interest, that relate to the empire as
whole. 1t is said of Miss Shaw with
out exaggeration that she has not been
by any means the least of the forces
working for the unification of the EN-.
pire. Her judgment may sometimes be
questioned, her conclusions combated
but OF her wide knowledge of the men
who are empire building, her acquaint.
ance with the movements OF which
they are the motive power. her enthu.
siasm. her courage and her intellec.
tual ability. II is not easy to speak toe
highly. Miss Shaw is certainly one OF
the remarkable women OF the age.

NERVOUS DEPRESSION.
IA TALK WITH MRS. p,YxuAx1

A woman with the blues is a very un-
comfortable person. She is illogical,
unhappy and frequently hystcrical.
The condition of the mind known US
the blucs,' nearly always, with wo-
men, results from diseased organs of
generation.
1t is source OF wonder that in this
nge OF advanced medical science, any
person should still believe that mere
force Of will and determination will
overcome depressed spirits and nerv-
BUSINESS in women. These troubles arc
indications Of disease.
Every woman who doesn't under
stand her condition should write to
Lynn, Mass, TO Mrs. Pinkham for her
advice. Her advice is thorough com
mon sense, and is the counsel Of
learned woman of great experience.
Read the story Of Mrs. +. 8. BENNETT,
Westphalin, Kansas, as told In the fol-
lowing letter:
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I have suf-
fered for over two years with falling,
enlargement and liberation of the
womb, and this spring, being in such
n weakened condition, caused me to
flow for nearly six months. Some time
ngo, urged by friends, wrote to you
for advice. After using the treatment
which you advised for short time,
that terrible flow stopped.
II am now gaining strength and
flesh, and have better health than
have had for the past ten years. 1
wish to say to all distressed, suffer-
ing women, do not suffer longer, when
there is one so kind and willing TO
aid you"

why does the American girl marry
the Briton? Has she any adequate
Justification? Do you suppose 1t pays
her and can such a choice on her part
be defended on large grounds as pro-
motive of the greatest good OF the
greatest number? Is II fact, us has
been fippantly suggested. that she
moves to England to get country life
because we have no good roads here
yet, or. on the contrary can It be dem
onstrated that one reason our country
roads are so bad is that the American
girl cannot abide the country and
promptly carried her man of to town
ut the earliest moment that sees his
endeayors blessed with the necessary
income? Is 1t her fault that country
interests tend too much to fall to the
care OF residum that is too poor to
get away. or has the country life not
much to do one way or the other with
her British propenslties7 To be hon

pEooINo LETTERS.
How They Are Treated by Helen Gould
and Others.

HOW Thoy Are Treated by Helen Gould
and Others
Rated in accordance with the num-
ber Of begging letters received, Miss
Helen Gould would probably be ranked
first among the men and women Of
New York who measure their wealth,
by millions, though this was not 20.
perhaps, till after she had begun her
remarkable work Of relieving the
wants Of the soldiers. Miss Gould
treats her begging mail with much
greater respect than do most persons
Of large wealth. for. unless unusually
engaged with other matters. she reads
every letter asking for financial aid
ON the same day 1t is received. setting
aside q certain part Of each twenty
four hours for Its perusal In company
with her private secretary. Many OF
these letters, most of them, in fact,
are 90 palpably fakes that NO serious
attention is paid to them. yet SO sim
csrely courteous and considerate Of the
feelings Of others is Miss Gould that
q polite answer is sent by the next
post to nearly every letter-writing
aims asker. Miss Gould's begging mail
must :all for preposterous aggregate
OF charity nowadays, for 1t has almost
doubled within the last six months.
and the total asked for In gifts by let
ter In the year 1897, as footed up by
her private secretary. was little more
than 100000. or about S2,74o . day.
How much she actually gives out for
charity not even her private secretary
knows. many benefsctions being ex-
tended BY Miss Gould in absolute Sc
crecy. Though richer than she by
a goodly number Of millions. her
brother George does not receive near
ly so many begging letters, nor does
he open his hand 80 freely as she; yet
his begging mail is something enor-
nous, and the number of favorable re-
sponses is greater than is generally
supposed. How the younger Of the
two immensely rich Rockefeller
brothers treats his begging mall has
never leaked out, but John d. Rookie
feller and his family are known to give
1t great deal Of their personal at
fast time. when every member OF the
family present takes his share of the
letters asking for favors, scans them
and later reads them aloud to the
others. A good proportion OF all the
Rockefeller letters are inconsequen-
tial, as n matter of course, and these
receive little discussion. This is true
also OF the few which add threats to
their pleadings, for the Rockefellers
have long ben case-hardened to this
sort OF epistle, like most other modern
millionaires. Letters full O. uncon-
scious humor and those in which the
writer's strive to make their point by
being purposely humorous are more
common than those of sinister import.
Fewest of all, as might be imagined.
are the letters which seem really
worthy.

KEEP A CHILD BUSY.
Tho Chief Part In Bringing Up Child IL
to Make Him Industrious,


to Make Him Industrious.
If, instead Of giving the young hon.
ilies on vice, and thus directing their
attention constantly to 1t, they were
simply kept busy at some wholesome
work or play every minute, they would
be far more thoroughly helped and
cleansed than would be possible In any
other manner" is the opinion expressed
by Kate Upson Clark In the January
Woman's Home Companion, who
claims that most parents either do
not realize the gravity of this task or
are too lazy or incapable to attend to
1t. For young people work is worth
all the white ribbon exhortations In
the world, useful as they may some
times be. The first duty OF the rich Is
to be industrious and to inculcate hab-
Its Of Industry in their children. II
they are only taught to keep constant
ly busy In some useful and ennObling
employment, the chances of their evO-
luton into honorable men and women
are a million times Increased. Awaken
their intellectual curiosity. 1t Is the
parent who is usually best fitted to
form the early habits Of the child, II
he will only take the trouble to do it.
The making Of collections and the
hard study Of almost any branch of
natural history are likely to interest
children. The making OF machines,
the miracles Of music, the manage
ment OF n printing press, may be used
to busy children"
