The Largest Bridges.

The Brooklyn suspension bridge
1,595R feet !ong-is still the largest
suspension bridge in the world. The
new East river bridge has a span Of
l 500 feet, and its capacity is far
greater than that of the Brooklyn
bridge. Each of its four cables has
q safe strength of over 10. 900 900
pounds in tension. The Washington
bridge over the Harlem river consists
of two spans of so fee in the clear.
The Roeblins suspension bridge at
I,,asara was replaced in 1897 by a
spandrel-braced. two-hinged. steel
arch of $50 feet span. 1t accommo-
dates the railway tracks on the upper
deck and a highway below. The sec
ord Niagara bridge replaced the Cliff
ton suspension bridge in 1898, and as
its span is $40 feet it is the largest
arch of any type in the world.
In 1901 the Pennsylvania railroad
built a stone bridge consisting of
forty-eight segmCntal arches of sew
enty feet span over the Susquehanna
river. 1t accommodates four tracks
and cost about 81, 10000; but the
cost of maintaining it is very small.

WON BRIDE AFTER
A LONG WOOING.

A somewhat romantic wedding oc-
CURED at Cheyenne Tuesday night
when Miss Nellie Nolan. daughter of
Patrick Nolan. and Casper Rouse of
Wheatland, were united in wndlock at
ST. Mary's cathedral by Father Walsh.
Miss Nolan was wooed by Mr.. Rouse
several years ago, but two years ago,
duringa visit to Denver. she met a Bur
lington switchman and became engag-
ed to him. The wedding was to have
taken place here last spring. but when
the switchman arrived he was bcastly
drunk and all negotiations were called
off and the lover dismissed.
During the summer Mr.. Rouse again
pressed his suit and was accepted. He
is a well-to-do farmer at Wheatland

EPiSTLE TO THE HEBREWS.
Book of the Bible Is OF the Most In.
tense Interest.

tense Interest.
The question who wrote the epistle
Ia the Hebrews is one which still re-
mains unanswered. Endless sugses-
los have been made by Biblical
scholars. The book has been ascribed
III turn to Appollos, Luke, Aquila and
Priscilla in collaboration, and others
but there is no consensus of opinion,
no one claims for his own theory that
il should be considered anything but
a Guess. There is a strange fascina-
ton about this yelled prophet, so full
of the poetry of an earlier faith, who
has given to the world his conception
OF Christianity-tC him a religion of
conscience and of hope, to which he
had fed for refuge" from a decaying
recommendation, a religion in which he
had found "a strong consolation"
Even to the u~nlearned the boob is very
literary, and those who know con.
firm this instructive judgment. The
writer drops the threads of his argu-
ment to find illustrations and orna-
ments. and by no means disdains fine
verbal effects. Hebrews has nothing
of the eternal simplicity which has
kept the meaning OF the Gospel clear
among the swords and pens Of ten
thousand t~leologians. No book In the
New Testament-unless, perhaps, Rev
clationS-has suffered more from the
theory of verbal inspiration. Some
thing Of the writer's real mind has
been, we suspect. irremediably over
laid with the conclusions of dogma

know what a cultivated man. who was

The popularity of illustrated postal
cards makes it desirable to produce
them at home by photography. and all
that is needed for this is the sensitiz-
ing of the card. To do this plunge the
card into a l per cent solution of
chloride of sodium common table
SALT. and when it is dry brush the
part it is desired to sensitiZe with a
brush which has been previously
dipped in a 10 per cent solution Of
nitrate of silver. Still better results
are had by adding to the l per cent
salt solution an equal quantity OF
phosphate of soda. After the printing
the paper is washed only on the part
that contains the image; then it is
laid in the gold solution, and finally
fixed with hyposulphite. Then it must
be washed and dried. AS these opera
lions are all done with a brush, they
are accomplished rapidly. Doing them
in a dim light, of course, gives the

Destroys Burrowinq Animals.

There is considerable difficulty in
reachin /; rats, mice and other pests
which secrete themselves in holes in
buildings or in the ground. and unless
they can be induced to entrap them
selves they are generally permitted
free range without further effort to
exterminate them. In the drawing
here shown is a simple device which
will probably aid greatly in the work
Of destroying burrowing animals, as it
enables the operator to reach the
rodent, v e when lodged in the deep
est part Of its hole.
The apparatus consists Of a fuel
chamber, in which charcoal or some
other substance which will give of
noxious fumes is placed, together with
a compression cylinder and plunger.
The two parts of the device are
located on a m base and are
connected by a tube leading from the
bottom of the compressor to the top Of
the fuel holder. To put the extermin.
ator in action a fire is kindled in the
perforated receptacle provided for
that purpose, when the depression OF
the plunger will flrce the air from the
compressor into the top of the oppo.
site chamber causing it to pass over
the Goals and drive the fumes out
through the pipe and into the burrow.
After continuing the operation for a
short time the animal will be either
