HOW THE NEW YORK SUBWAY
 WILL CROSS THE HARLEM

RIVER
 But one other interesting feature of the work of construction need be de- scribed-the building of the tunnel across the Harlem river. Here a prob lem of selection was presented which for time puzzled the engineers. More | than thirty different plans, any of them feasible, were suggested. In the end the one which at first sight would seem the most difficult was decided upon. Two lines of sheathing were driven into the bottom of the river al a distance apart equal to the width of the channel. The blanks were placed close together, so that when the wood swelled by the action of the water the joints became practically watertight A platform, called the roof was then rested on top of the sheathing, and third wall, at right angles, and touching the ends of the first two walls, completed a box, which, when pumped dry allowed the men to descend and dig out the bottom of the river. As the sub-river soil was removed it became necessary to lead down the roof of the box with weights in order to prevent the sheathing from floating. But half the width of the stream could of course be thus worked at time, as navigation had to be kept open by the other half,-Pearson's Mag azine for April.

SOME NESE VAR TALK.

Gentlemen may cry peace, peace, and gentlemen do cry peace, peace, but in spite of such crying perhaps there will not be peace. The Anglo Japanese al- llanee has been generally talked of as a peace plan, but it appears that some of the Japanese are not talking of it in mat way, A Japanese statesman has been telling the New York Tribune that the treaty is fraught with great dan ger for my country, this danger arising pricipally from the mood of my coun- trymen.' What is the mood of the Jap anese? Tt is fierce mood" says the Japanese statesman, which pervades all classes from the highest to the low est. It is the result of our victories over the Chinese. We gained thereby full consciousness of our power, but with it the ever-increasing irritation that our enemies had been unworthy of us. Our national fever since that war has been to cope with and flick" western power. This alliance has brought Immediately to our brain that fever when it was happily subsiding. If England has thought of insuring peace, the Japanese nation sees war exclusive ly-war at last, with foe worthy of ier-and is, therefore, enthusiastic"
 This is not encouraging, but perhaps the warlike Japanese wont be able to have their way about fighting.

The following curious election mani- festo was issued the other day in Paris: "Electors and business men! On the eve of the elections the friends of the small dealers call your atten- ton to the present very grave danger namely, the invasion of the Chamber of Deputies by medical men Oppose med ical candidates; replace them by com mercial men, And why? Because the trend of hygienists is to exercise an in- supplying of food To increase their authority these hygienists do not hesi- tate to exaeperate in an absurd man ner the importance of food frauds, and then they pose as saviors of human life Thus sometimes these hygienists, who are nothing but quacks, accuse purveyors of milk, sometimes wholesale provision dealers or rather grocers. No branch of food supplying is free from their accusation of fraud and falsifca- tion Defend yourselves, then, against the calmuny. Food purveyors of Paris and the provinces! Vote against medi- cal men. Let all parties choose other instance, choose food puryeyors.''

Dr. Emil Holub, who died recently in Vienna devoted eighteen years of his life to scientific research and explora- stions in Africa, and to obtaining the largest collection of specimens that was ever brought by one man from that continent. This collection was so large that the Austrian government to whom he desired to present it, could not grant him adequate space for it's permanent exhibition. Two exhibitions of it, one at Vienna in 1891 and the other at Prague in 1892, were h id and attracted wide attention among scientific men. The entire collection was afterward dis" tributed among various European mu- seums.

"Oh, nothing much" was the non- committal reply. "There is something wrong,' persisted the gen. ,eral. "Out with it.

ALL ODIET ON THE CANAL.

There isn't as much excitement in Washington over the Isthmian canal question as there was, and in view of the apparent indifference to the matter shown by congress in these days some speculation is being indulged in as to the prospects of canal bill getting through before the Fifty-seventh con- sress expires. The offer of the Pan- anna Canal corflpany to sell it's property and concessions to the United States for $40,000000 holds good only until March 5, 1903, expiring the day after the present congress comes to an end. At the time the offer was put into writ ing it was supposed that it would be acted on during the present session. but the unlocked for complications that have since come up make this very doubtful. If the matter is permitted to go over until the next session the pros pect will be even more discouraging. With any opposition at all next win ter it would be almost impossible to get the bill through, for the session will ex- pire by law on March 4. The three months of the session will be pretty well filled up with the various appro- priation bills, so that there will be no time for extended debate on a canal measure
 Perhaps those who want canal will wake up before long. If they don't those who don't want one will not weep. There is more than one way to skin a cat or kill bill
