may be mentioned that the working drawings for the Atbara bridge were all | made after the contract was signed. 1t is curious that so much ingenuity | should be exercised in inventing ob- Viously false and shallow excuses when the reasons are obvious, and unfortun-
 ately very serious In the first place, bridge design and construction in the United States has long been reduced to
 a system of manufacturing 9 few spe-
 clal and standard types except, of
 course, in special cases); under these conditions, plant of the most complete
 ana efficient kind can be laid down
 with confidence, for it can be employed In the rapid manufacture of the various
 standard types of bridges. Moreover, no machine or plant is allowed to be-
 come obsolete, and in such works as
 those of Pencoyd (and there are a dozen
 of the same class in the United States)
 a machine or plant becomes obsolete
 as soon as it can be replaced by other machinery that can give best results. In this way American shops of the best class are kept always in the highest state of efficiency, and the vast outlay Incurred in the frequent renewal of plant is more than repaid by increased output. In this country, on the other hand, it has been the custom, since iron bridges Were first constructed, and Great George Street was a power para mount, for each engineer to design his own bridges, with the main object of making them somewhat different from every other engineers design. Thus no bridge or structural iron making plant of high efficiency could be laid down with profit by the British manufac- turer;hence, slow and costly production. It IS the old story over again. on large scale, of the American and British lock-making, and a dozen other indus tries.-Engineering (British).
 TIGHTNESS OFMONEY IN LONDON Caused By Anxiety as to the Future.
 London, July 1.-The Press associa- ton to-day sent out the following state ment, which is believed to be accurate:
 Business in financial circles is consid- erably checked, owing to certain an Xiety as to the future and the remarka- ble reticence maintained in all quarters SiN SNoiSi'y ol HiOiley anu liie IeCeIlI large sales of consols. A block of G1.- 100000 is reported to have been sold Wednesday. To add to the apprehen- sion it is the season when the provinces require more money than usual in con- nection with the activity of trade. But, nevertheless, bankers and others are keeping large surplus balances for emergency purposes. It is we'll known that considerable amount of German bills are held here at speculation rates and that large amount of credits are on Berlin firm which recently failed.

The Age of Slang.

In times of old, and even somewhat re-
cent,
The gifted scribe who wrote for human
kind
His best ideas couched in language de-
cent,
Betting products of a cultured mind.
So an admirer of the old-time breeding
May clasp his hands in horror and amaze
To find the language of the slums sue
ceeding
The polished courtesies of earlier days
And marvel not If he inclines to quarrel
With public taste. Dejectedly he sees
Word d-counterfeiters wear the modern
laurel,
Their contributions never fail to please
They write not, they, to aid the minds
progression.
But for the delectation of der gang"
Whose basest "coin' they put in circula-
tion;
A ribald riot of unmeaning slang.
If some Napoleon awaits a mission,
His fame by grateful thousands shall
be sung,
Who'll place beneath the band of prohibi-
tiOn
This wholesale numbering of the Eng
lish tongue.
Shall fairest roses bloom and die neglect
ed
While fair ones wear bouquets of
nOxiouS weed?
Nay, then; the printed page must be pro-
tected
Or self-respecting ones shall cease to
read.

The BoY on the Farm.

Under a spreading apple tree
The boy with the bare feet stands;
He has ten apples in him and
Some more are in his hands
Beneath his waist of calico
His tummy-tum expands.
His hair was shingled by his ma,
who cut it straight behind;
He has Il lurid color that
Is due to sun and wind
He's lost the teeth he had in front.
But doesn't seem to mind,
Week in, week out. from morn till night,
He tears around the place,
With briar scratches on his legs
And fTeCkles on his face
The neighbOrs Candidly admit
That he's hopeless case.
lie wears his trousers at half~mast,
He rises with the sun;
The chores his busy father leaves
For him are seldom done
And he is always gone when there
Are errands to be run.
He goes on Sunday to the church
And stays TO Sabbath school;
And by prOpounding questions makes
His teacher seem a fool;
He pinches smaller boys than he
And learns the golden rule,
His mother sits up every night
To patch the clothes he wears,
And every night he takes them off
With more emphatic tears
He falls from trees and into wells,
And smokes and chews and swears.
The frightened chickens duck their heads
And cackle where he goes,
With ugly sites upon his eyes
And bruises on his toes,
He eats things with his knife, nor cares
For any wind that blows.
You gorge with undeveloped fruit,
Which is a foolish plan;
No poetry is in you, but
Know this, my little man
II takes much more than genius
TO stand the things you can,

Dreyfus.

A man stood stained; France was one
Alp of hate,
Pressing upon him with the whole
worlds weight.
In all the circle of the ancient sun
There was no voice to speak for him
not one.
In all the world of men there was no
sound
But of Il sword flung broken to the
ground.
Hell laughed its little hour; and then
beholdl
How, one by one, the guarded gates un-
fold
Swiftly a sword by Unseen Forces hurled
And now man rising against the world!
Oh, import deep as life is, deep as time!
There is Something sacreu and sublime
Moving behind the worlds. beyond our
Weighing the stars, Weighing the deeds
of men.
Take heart, o soul of sorrow, and be
strong
There is One greater than the whole
worlds wrong.
Be hushed before the high Benlgnant
Power
That moves wool-shod through sepulcher
and tower!
No truth so low but lie will give it
crown;
No wrong so high but lie will hurl it
down.
O mon that forge the fetter, it is vain;
There is a Still Hand stronger than your
chain
'Tis no avail to bargain, sneer and nod,
And shrug the shoulder for reply to God.

cast at the last preceding election. Pri-
mary election officers serve without
compensation, and are not eligible to
reappointment for two years. In all
other respects they have the same
powers, duties and responsibilities as

Playing at Paradise.

She called to me with dancing eyes,
Were both turned out of Paradise;
The tree of knowledge was the pear,
That's over in the corner there.
and mother, dearest, Cousin Jake
Was simply splendid as the snake;
He curved about the trunk: to hiss
He shot his tongue out, just like this.
"He kicked the branches with his feet,
To knock us down some pears to eat;
And. when we tasted them, there came
An angel with a sword of flame.
Bob was the angel and he said
We must dig thStles for our bread,
And, though we digged with toll and pain
He'd make the thistles grow again.
But can he, mother? And he says
The orchards shut to us for days.
Do come, and make him let us in,
Because we're sorry for our sin"
went; and whirling by the gate
A wooden sword about his pate,
found our Bob in angel-wise
Guarding his orc hard paradise.
"Beware the flaming sword" he cried,
at turns all ways. Don't come inside. -
"Now, Bob run in l. laughing, said;
ITS time all angels went to bed"
