ACTIVITY OF FIRST INFANTRY
VIII Not Abate Since the Exercises
Preparatory to Sham Battle.

The activity in the First Regiment
will be continued now that the great
event has passed. The preparatory ex-
ercises gave the men an excellent
schooling in the extended order. and
it is now intended to resume the school
of instruction of the company, and
officers. The instruction in the ex-
tended order will not be discontinued,
but the same amount of time will not
be given to it.
The field and staff officers are in
vited to attend the meeting of the
company officers. and all officers will
be welcomed at the non-commissioned
officers meeting. Besides the work
outlined, matters of importance to
the regiment will be discussed at these
meetings, and a large attendance is
expected.
The following meetings have been an
nounced:
1. Monday, March 9th, at $50 p. M;
meeting of the field and staff.
II. Friday, March 13. at $50 p. M;

THE FEAR OF HUMBUG,
Prevents Many People From Trying
"a Good Medicine.

Stomach troubles are so common and
in most cases so obstinate to cure that
people are apt to look with suspicion
on any remedy claiming to be a radi-
cal, permanent cure for dyspepsia and
indigestion. Many such pride them
selves on their acuteness in never be-
ing humbugged, especially in medi-
cines
This fear of being hunlbugged can
be carried too far so far, i'm fact, that
many people suffer for years with
weak digestion rather than risk a little

SOUTHSIDE KINDERGARTEN
FORMALLY OPENED
sixty-nfne Children Took Part in the Exercises

The formal opening of the Southside
kindergarten of the Kate Baldwin Free
Kindergarten System yesterday morn
ing was a bright, successful affair. The
exercises were those of the regular
daily programme in greater part, and
the many interested visitors were given
an excellent opportunity to see the
method by which the kindergartens are
conducted.
At the opening of the exercises the
children of the several classes took
their positions around an oval marked
in the center of the floor and went
through many physical evolutions TO
the accompaniment of the piano, the
movements being for the purpose of
producing gracefu1ness of movement
and development of the body. Follow
ing these were the object lessons which
they illustrated by motions indicating
birds singing, the noise of a passing
train, grain cutting and other SIMILAR
evolutions to the accompaniment of
music. The songs by the children,
chosen themselves from those learned
at the kindergarten, was one of the
most pleasant features of the exercises,
one little boy furnishing much merr1-
ment by pointing his finger at his
teacher in an affirmative manner and
announcing that the song a little girl
was then singing was the one he had
been waiting for all morning.
The most striking thing of the exer-
cises was the absolutely self-uncon-
scious and unaffected manner in which
the children performed their duties,
evincing their thorough interest in the
work and total oblivion of the fact that
they were the center of all eyes of the
hundred or more CHESTS.

ENGINEERING WONDERS.
Rio Grande Bridge and the Cut-Off
Across Salt Lake.
From an Exchange.

IOill oil
Two remarkable engineering feats,
both associated with railroad extern
sion, are now in process of accomplish
ment on this side of the Atlantic. One
is the Southern Pacific, cutoff across
the Great Salt lake of Utah, from Og-
den to Lucin. The other is the lofty
bridge spanning the gorge of the Rio
Grande on the line of the Pacific Rail-
way of Costa Rica. Both undertakings
are attracting the attention of rail-
road engineers in Europe, as well as
in all parts of the United States. The
present route of the Southern Pacific
includes a stretch of las miles of track
between Ogden and Lucin, which ira
verses the northern shore of the great
Salt Lake for distance of fifty miles.
afterward turning to the west An I'M
necessary detour and several extraor-
dinarily heavy grades are the chief
disadvantages of this route. The cut
off will do away with this detour and
with all of the troublesome grades It
will extend westerly from Ogden to the
shore of the lake, thence crossing to
Promontory Point, on an embankment
and trestle, and traversing the point
itself through a flve-mile cut of con-
body is reached. The cutoff then pass
es across the shallow water to Strong's
Knob, whence it is continued to Lucin
The total length of the new line will
be little over 102 miles and, besides
possessing the easiest of gradients, it
will shorten the distance between Og-
den and Lucin about forty-five miles.
The cutoff covers an eight-mile
stretch of water from the lake shore to
Promontory Point and another TWEEN
ty-mile stretch from Promontory Point
to Strong's Knob.
c. w. Arthur, civil engineer who is
familiar with the construction work on
the cutoff, discussed the subject at
some length in a recent issue of the
Engineering News. Mr.. Arthur ex-
plains that as more than two miles of
the survey between the lake shore and
Promontory Point lay along a bed of
mud some 10 feet in depth it was, nee
essary to build a construction track by
placing three layers of sand bags,
which, in turn, rested upon long lines
of planking. This construction track.
ran, of course, parallel to the perma-
nent track and was used for the car
riage of shale and gravel that formed
the regular roadbed.
Another very difficult engineering
problem concerned the fresh water
question. When the work began most
of the supply required had to be trans
ported from Ogden, which involved
large expense and not infrequently an
exasperating delay, so in order to pro-
vide a substantial supply of good wa
ter, the engineers were obliged to bore
The Savannah morning news., 1903-03-04

two artesian wells, one away out in the
lake and the other a couple of miles
inland. The supply from the lake well
has remained uniformly pure and gen.
erous, while the land we'll has been
abandoned, owing to the constantly in
creasing infusion of sand.
OF the work of pile driving Mr. Ar
thur has much to say that is of inter-
est. The difference in the lake bottom
are responsible for some curious hap
penings. Sometimes a blow of the
hammer would drive pile in no more
than couple of inches; again it would
descend ten or twelve feet Occasion
ally hard strata were reached, through
which it was exceedingly difficult to
penetrate. In speaking of the work
on one section Mr.. Arthur says:
THE first pile, twenty-six feet long,
was driven out of sight by one blow
of the hammer. The second. twenty
eight feet long, was set upon the first
and a second blow sent both out of
sight. The formation at this point is
of mud deposited by the Bear river,
which flows into the lake from the
north. Upon examination it was found
that mud to the depth of fifty feet had
been accumulated. To cope with this
'out-of-sight' pile-driving, two forty
foot poles were driven. tied, capped
ana Draced, and when the rails were
laid it is thought they will be strong
enough to hold the construction trains
while dumping their loads of filling,
and in time the whole structure will
become solid"
The completion of the great cutoff
is set for January, 1904, although it
may be postponed to a later date il
the character of the bottom in one
portion of the lake varies materially
from the expectations formed of it by
the engineers.
The Pacific Railroad of Costa Rica
will be sixty miles long when finished
and will connect San Jose, the capital
of the republic; with the coast, passing
through the most fertile and populous
districts. 1t will cost about 5000, 900
of our money, and of this large part
will be required to pay for the great
bridge over the Rio Grande. This
bridge is to be 800 feet long, with rails
not less than $40 feet above the wa
ter! Just think of it, the canyon OF the
Rio Grande at this point is more than
twice as deep as the gorge of Niagara!
The bridge is designed by New York
engineer, who has had extensive ex-
perience in this sort of work.

GEORGIA CAR WORKS BUSY.

The Georgia Car Works is a busy
place. A large order of fiat cars has
been turned out recently for the At
lantic Coast Line and from ten to
twelve box cars are being turned out
daily for the Georgia, Florida and
Southern Railroad. The latter cars
are being loaded in the city as fast as
turned over to the road and being sent
along the line of the Georgia, Florida
and Southern, and other Southern
roads. They are being loaded princi-
pally with fertilizer. The addition of
these cars daily to the available roll
ing stock is helping greatly to relieve
the present scaritY of cars.
