chestnut hair and is handsome and
stately.
Before her marriage Mrs. Manning

TRAVELLING BY WEIGHT.
Radical Changes Which the Colorado
Innovation May Bring About.

Radical Changes Which the Colorado
Innovation May Bring About.
The officers of the Pueblo and Beulah
Valley railway in Colorado, an electric
line seventeen miles in length, have de-
cided to adopt a passenger tariff sys-
tenn whereby persons desiring to be
carried over the road must pay accord
ing to their weight instead of by the
| mile, as usual in the United States,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Passengers, a dispatch says, will be
required to step upon scales at the tick
ct office and will be charged at the rate
of / y cents a pound for the round trip
between Pueblo and Beulah and for
shorter trips propOrtionately. This syS-
tenn is said to have been adopted with
success on some European lines.
The Colorado line is one of small i'm
portance, of course, being q purely local
affair, but if the new tariff principle
proves successful in this instance it
may lie applied to the handling of pas
senger traffic on the trunk lines. In
that event and in cases where persons
are planning to take long journeys they
will of course go into training in adj
their weight to the minimum. The IA
Their of a large family will be enabled
to make quite a considerable saving on
a thousand mile trip to be taken by his
loved ones if he reduces them to a milk
and water diet for month or two be-
fore entering upon the journey. Anti
fat remedies will of course under such
circumstances become more popular
than ever, for lean people will be able
to travel much more cheaply than those
who are troubled with q tendency to
embOnpoint.
As q natural result of the innovation,
should it be generally adopted by our
common carriers, people who are about
to be weighed will of course remove all
metal articles either in the way of
knives, keys or coin from the pockets
and diQag4 themselves of all surplus
clothing. They will also purchase their
tickets before rather than after meals,
and shrewd and experienced travellers
will drink charged mineral water so
that they may be light and effervescent
when they step upon the scales.
All necessary details of this improved
tariff arrangement doubtless will be at
tended to, including preferential
round trip rate for persons who visit
the health resorts in an emaciated con-
dition and return with their blood full
of iron and their hearts full of joy.

GIRLS AS MACHINISTS.
Two Sisters Learning Trade, Al

Two Sisters Learning "a Trade, Al
though They Have Fortunes.
In order to complete the full mechan-
ical course at the Ohio Mechanics in
stitute Artie May Lomb. nineteen, and
Esther Lomb. sixteen, daughters of G.
w. c. Lomb, a mechanical engineer of
Cincinnati, are working daily in the
machine and blacksmith shops of the
institution. They forge and weld iron
and steel with skill, always making
something useful in accordance with
the rules of the school, says a Cincin-
natl dispatch.
In the machine shop they operate
lathes, planners, shapers, drill presses
and milling machines, making tools and
parts of machines, engines and other
products of the machine shop. They
are not actuated by the same motives
as the boy who enters an apprentice
ship to learn a trade, for each has an
independent fortune of $25,O00 left to
her Il year ago by Judge Daniel H.
Porter of New York
1t is a matter of principle with the
girls, because they enjoy the studies
and work. They wish to be equipped
with a practical education as compe-
tent mechanical engineers in case they
should ever need 10 support themselves.
Both will be graduated in June after a
six years course, and both expect to
enter Vassar college.

THE WILLIAMSBURG BRIDGE
Some Features OF the New Structure
Spanning the East River.

Some Features OF the New Structure
Spanning the East River.
In every respect the Williamsburg
bridge, spanning the East river and
connecting New York and Brooklyn, is
the most remarkable highway through
the air. in the world, says the New
York Herald. The weight of the steel
in each of the towers is 3,04S tons. The
steel in the Brooklyn approach weighs
G,0S5 tons, while that in the Manhattan
approach weighs 1O,550 tons. The main
span weighs 7,772 tons, while the ca
bles and fittings weigh 5000 tons. The
diameter of the suspension cables. out
side of the wires, is eighteen and three
quarter inches. There are 1896 wires
in each cable. Each wire is about
three-siXteenths of an inch in diam
eter. and the length of each is $500
feet.
The timber used in the construction
of the bridge amounted to 6,50O,0O0
feet. The eXcavating equaled $4,000
cubic yards. OF concrete masonry
there are 10000 cubic yards and of
stone masonry 10000 cubic yards.
The steel used amounted to 10000 tons.
The Manhattan anchorage rests on
$500 piles driven through clay to sand
everything rock. The Brooklyn anchor
age rests on natural sand.
The foundations for the towers Of
the bridge rest on the solid rock. The
north pier on the Manhattan side is
fifty-six feet deep at high water, while
the south pier is ten feet deeper. On
the Brooklyn side the north pier is no
pier is only 90 feet deep.
The first wire for the construction Of
the temporary footbridge was strung
on April IL. 1901, and the first wire for
the permanent cable crossed on Friday,
Nov. 20, 1901.

story of a Portrait.

An interesting story comes from Gu
ben, Germany, where man recently
bought Il portrait of the Emperor Fred
erick, painted by Professor Won Len
bach, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
AS there was no signature, he wrote
to the professor, asking him to supply
the missing detail, but was surprised to
receive a reply that the portrait was a
forgery, as the original was sold to q
well known amateur and was already
signed. An expert, however, expressed
the opinion that the picture was genu-
inc, and on examination of the canvas
the professor stated that he had him
self been victimiZed, as the work was
genuine. He had painted two portraits
as one did not satisfy him, and he was
about to sign the second when his
steward substituted the first, and, with
out detecting the difference, he had
signed it, and it duly reached its des-
tination. The second canvas found it's
way with others to q Munich art dealer
