BRrD GKs WINE TINE TRAIN WAITS,
A New Structure Put IN Place on the New
York Central In Twenty Minutes.

Between 5 and o o'clock Yesterday morn
Ing there WAS quite n novel experiment In bridge
buildIng AZ the East Creek station on the New
York Central Railroad. about eight miles east
of Little Falls. The bridge Is No. $50 audit
IL built to carry OF sood water whom the East
Canada Creek /, frozen or the channel t. choked
Tho old bridge was - feet long and 90 feet
wide. containing four tracks. IN order not to
delay tranic more than was absolutely neCcg-
sary, the new bridge, which is a through plate
gIrder bridge Of steel, was constructed by the
side Of the old one. Both bridges were nj
an elevation Of ten feet above grade. To faCili-
tate moving them. both bridges were placed
on car trucks under which rails were laid, A
powerful locomotive was placed on the reg'i-
lar track and attached to heavy chains fastened
to both bridges. These chains we're passed
around pulleys TO give the bridge q sidewIse
motion. When everything was in readiness.
the locomotive was started, As the old bridge
was moved TO the south. the new bridge, which
weighs $50 tons. took its place. The old bridge
was left by the side Of the tracks, where II will
be taken apart and removed at leisure. The
new bridge having been put In place, went
into use NJ once
So quickly was the change made that the
passenger tracks Of the road we're blocked
but 20 minutes. The work was done under the
direction OF clifford Lewis. yr, who Ia pontifer
maXimus on this division OF the Central. This
Is the first time a bridge has been removed and
replaced In this way on this road. and the opera

oUIRINI's TRADING TRIr.
The First Time a South European Vessel
Sailed IS Far North a. Norway.

The journal Of the Norwegian Geog raphi-
cal Society at ChriStianla has lust published
a short account Of the unfortunate voyage
made by the italian trader. Pietro Qulrini,
TO the coast OF Norway In 1882. sixty years
before Columbus discovered the Western
World This long voyage In the open A.
lantic Ia OF interest In he history OF naviga-
ton, for It was the nrst time that a sailor of
South Europe took hi' vessel So far TO the north.
In this journey Quirini skIrted nearly all the
coasts OF Europe In a little vessel that was
considerably inferior 10 those In which Column
bu, crossed the ocean: for. In the sixty years
taa, interviewed between the voyage Of the
lLi.inn trader, and the great discoverer. i'm
provpments Of importance had been made

Qu.rInl ~aiied for the north in the days Of
the commercial prominence Of Venice and
Genoa At that time there were no less than
5000 sailing vessels in tho trading Aeet OF VEN
ice They sailod far W the Atlantic coast
a. well As TO every port in the Mediterranean
Bat they had developed no trade with the North
msn and Quiglnl thought 1t was time TO break
the ground
lie had heard that up in Norway the people
could not raise the grlIe but that they had
become fond Of wine and there was a good
market for 1t. He was told that a consider
able quantity Of the wine Of South Europe
sold In France and England was reaxportei
n Norway and sold At \ good round profit.
Here was a chance n open direct trade with
the far North OF Furo7e So the enterprsing
Italian took his vessel to the Pire,iS, loaded
with a cargo ol Greek wines and then turned
the nose nj his little craft straight for Gibraltar
All went well until the vessel had passed
the ports Of England. whore Mediterranean
ships were often se"n But rs Quirini was
approaching his destinatou a great storm
arose that finally wrecked all his hopes ~
well rs his vessel. lie found himself unable

out 10 stairway from the dangers Of Norway's
west shore but unfortunately he did not got
far enough out to avoid the Stands and he
Was driven upon the rocks Of one Of the Lotto
tens, where his vessel went TO pieces and his
wine was mixed with salt wnter. There was
no record for a long time thereafter Of any
attempt by trading ships Of South Europe
10 establish direct relations with Norway.
Two reports o. the Inflated voyage we're
published in Venice in 1881. One Of them
was written by Quirini himself and the other
by his hel'nsman. Antonio di Corado. Geog-
