A NEW CROTON DAM
The Mammoth Engineering Feat
 Now Nearing Completion.
Extent of the System Which Is Neces- sary to Supply New York with Sufficient Pure Water-NeedS
 of the Future.

Next to ,Chicago's drainage canal, with it's extensive system of intercept ing sewers, and the new rapid transit underground system of New York, the great Croton dam which the latter city is now building is probably the great est engineering feat ever undertaken by any American municipality. In many ways it is the greatest undertak- ing of it's kind the modern world has ever known, for its completion will create a basin that will hold 75,000, ,000,- 900 gallons of water, to quench the thirst of the citizens of Gotham.
 This immense dam, built in the Cro- ton valley, Westchester county, New York, and stretching nearly half a mile from mountain to mountain will create veritable lake 20 miles long. An idea of the size of the dam may be obtained from the immense am ount of material and labor that has already gone into it. The estimated cost is S6,- 100000; the height 300 feet, of which 150 feet is above the bed of the Croton river. The width at the base is 200 feet, from which the structure tapers to 20 feet at the top, across which public drive will be constructed.
 The amount of stone and materials used in the construction of the dam is estimated at 100000 tons. Up to the present time the work has required more than 100000 days of labor per- formed by an average of 500 men em- ployed nearly every working day for ten years. It is probably safe to say that such a stupendous pile of mason " has not been erected since the build ing of the pyramids of Egypt The steam and machinery equipment has equalled that of an ordinary railroad. for besides the many hoists and der ricks, there are in use several miles of tracks and 50 locomotives, and cars of

TEE THIcKEsT OF FoGS.
It Was cvt up Into B2ocLs and Used in thetC~nstruetion o9
 Cellar Walls.

Speaking of fog" the Major said, according to the New York Sun, "you have some torable thick fogs around here all right-that fog you had her. on Tuesday, for instance, certainly was snifterino, but really that was only light, thin haze as compared with some fogs I've seen.
 Why, say, when was living in West Slabbington, Ark, we had fog settle down on us there once that was so thick you could not cut it with an ax Ohl of course. don't mean that liter ally. You could have chopped it with an ax, but not easily, as one man dis covered who had serious reason for wanting to find out.
 "This man was just then getting out rock for the foundation of house he was building, and it occurred to him when that fog settled down that he might get out blocks of fog that would do just as well as stone, and that he could get them in any shape he wanted with far less trouble. Then it was that he tried chopping out blocks of the fog with an ax, but found that was too hard work, and so went to getting 'em out with steel wedges and slcdge ham, mers, he and his hired man working as fast as they could, because they knew very well that that fog quarry would not stay there forever.
 'They got out fog blocks enough for the whole cellar, including strips for caps and stills of allthe cellar windows, and built the walls ef them And you can get some idea of how dense that fog was when I tell you that those cellar walls. laid of blocks of it 43 years ago, were still standing the last time I visited West Slabbington, and the man that built 'em was still living in the house, hale and hearty.
 And the walls were not only stand ing, they were in good condition as ever-all but the window caps. These had finally bent and sagged little in the middle, and the owner told me that he had replaced them with stone caps; but the fog walls were all right still, and the owner said that he believed those caps would have stood all right, too, if he'd only cut lem just little thicker.
 "Oh, yes; that was thick fog we h ad here last Tuesday, all right, but very thin and watery compared with that one I'm telling you about that we had in West Slabbington, Ark" ...,

AN AUTOGRAPH COPY.
The Only Tndacement That soId a Picture for n Hard-Up
 Man.

The man who undertook to cross the continent Ion the hurricane-deck of a donkey" and earn his expenses as he went. was sure to have experiences worth some ething to himself, If not to anyone else. He had photographs made of himself and the donkey. These he sold for 25 cents each. At Yonkers hisepurse was light, and his bills were heavy, relates Youths Companion
 CT resolved to rise at dawn and sell enough pictures to pay my bills, if I had to sell them at cost. I set to work. By one o'clock had visited every shop, store and Chinese laundry, and was talking hoarsely to a corner grocer, who sat on a keg of mackerel sampling Limburger cheese. offered picture for IS cents, but the reduction in price did not interest him.
 T want not picture at any price!' he declared.
 ss T lack IS cents of the amount of my hotel bill,' I urged. T am in dire straits
 His reply was weak, but the cheese was strong enough to help him out. My mental magazine had but a single charge left, and fired that.
 Isn't it worth Is cents to know g fool when you see one?'
 ssYe-e-es, dink it ees,' answered the man, and eef you will write it on the picture, buy him."
