Judge Hart did not impose another punishment. but ordered the prisoner to appear 100 years from that date to receive sentence.

at home. It had not been fifteen hours since the young lady with a pack oi cards had foretold this! Was there ever more remarkable coincidence. With me tho vexatious question was what to dc with Ardis. for he was in total ignor- ance of my having been detailed. I had to leave him. an inexperienced youth. alone in a strange city. Would 1t be bet ter to sec him myself. tell him that I had to leave him. and try to reconcile him to his fate; or would it be better to steal away from him and leave him to eoive his own problems. wanted to pursue the former course, my friends were decidedly of the opinion that it would make matters ten times worse So we stole away from him. About sundown that evening we left on the train for Ala bama. could not get Ardis of my mind. could not quiet my conscience. When he learned of all the particulars he was greatly hurt with me. but after reflec- ton he justified me in leaving him and approved of my course in doing so.

ERROR IN BRIDGE MAKING.

Draw of the New Potomac River
 Bridge Three Feet Too High.
 Washington Post.
 The big steel draw of the new Pennsyl- vania Railroad bridge across the Potomac has been found by the engineers in charge to be three feet higher than the plans called for, and to remedy the defect all the piers will have to be raised three feet. The draw has just been placed in position, and the error, unknown until then. was made apparent greatly to the surprise of the constructors.
 Only a slight delay in the completion of the bridge will be caused, if ia saj6 Each of the piers will have to be canned by mammoth stone "blocks'' five feat square three feet higher than those now in place, in order to raise the stone con struction of the bridge to the proper level. The error in the draw lies in the fact that four steel projections from the under side of the draw which fit into the two piers next on each side to the draw pier are too short by three feet, as the result of the draw itself being too high These projections fit into sockets on the pier tops and hold the draw in place.
 The big draw is 2S0 feet long. and weighs 800 tons. It arrived in Washing ton in July last from the works of the American Bridge Company, in Philadel- pl1a, ana TOT several HOnLHS WdS kept fin "storage' without its increased height being suspected. Then 1t was rigged up and swung into position on the stone piers and the error was noted.
 ''The error is not fault of the Ameri- can Bridge Company" said Mir. J. W. Craig. Construction Engineer of the Penn sylvania Railroad, in charge of the work. The plans by which the bridge is being built are not those originally selected. In Fdn Through some oversight the American Bridge Company was furnished with plans for the construction of the bridge which had been partially abandoned. and in this way the error crept in. do not think the company was responsible for tho de- feet" It is thought that the bridge will be completed in eight months

 University of Virginia December 18o& Editor The Times Dispatch:
 Sir-prOf. Henry Tutwtler of AtahaMas was born in Harrisonburg. Va. in 1DD7. He entered the University of Virginia ae its opening in 1893. He remained here four years and returned in 1S3S. He Ob- tained the degrees of M. A. and B. l.. He was an associate here of Gessner Harrison. and between them existed a lifelong friendmhIp. Of similar tastes. capacity for language. and sterling char aeter, they were a noble pair of broth ers." While at the University he dined with MT. Jefferson, and has left us q bright description of the great man. He knew Edgar A. Poe and bore testimony to the fact that he was not an idle stu- dent while here.
 I have recently seen a letter from pr. Harrison to Professor Tutwiler in 1SB in which the chair of Natural Philosophy. which lt was expected that Mir. Rogers would resign at the end of that sesEion. was offered to the Alabamian. Dr. Har- rison was then Chairman of the Faculty and wrote with the knowledge and sane ton of members of the Board. He de- clined the invitation.
 Professor Tutwtler's remarkable labor in Alabama, first, as Professor in the State University and afterwards as prin- cipaI of the Greene Spring School made him widely and favorably known. Ths memory of his excellence yet abides in that region. He was a reverent and gen- uine scholar a precious possession for any community. He is no longer among siss but to have seen and known him is count@ ed privilege by great numbers of ouE Southern people.
 Yours very truly.

Third and last installment of Professor McMorriss interesting Commonplace

Third and last installment of Professor
 McMorris's interesting Commonplace
 Incidents.
 I now come to rleate an important, but most remarkable co-inctdent of my whole life. The last night of our stay card party was given at Miss Little's. and 1t was largely attended, mostly by young girls and young men. We played the usual games until a late hour, when we changed to telling fortunes" with cards. The lass (about 16 with whom had mostly played, after telling or foretellinG when I would marry. the color of the eyes and hair of my wife-to-be, etc, asked me if would like to have another furlough. replied, ''Yes. run these cards and tell me how long before I shall get another furlough." She dealt off the cards, and after consulting the cards fin this way, declared l should get another furlough in very short time. replied that l didn't believe it. because I was return ing from home on furlough; that was going east to head off Sherman in tho Carolinas. and that an early furlough for me was absurd. You have consulted the wrong cards, I replied; try that again with the cards.' She did so. and at the conclusion threw up her hands and shouted: "Oh. it will be no time hardly before you have another furlough." She went through all this with the most af- fected sincerity and gravity. 'Impossi- bles said. you are failure. knoWs as a fortune-teller. Run these cards again." A third time she ran tho cards in reference to my getting a furIough, the last time going into ecstasies of joy, and affirming with still more earnestness that 1t be almost no time before re- ceived another furlough. The next morn ing Ardis and myself took leave of our kind friends, and set out on foot for Au- gusta. We had to pass down through the business part of the city, and here met an officer of my regiment returning on furlough to Alabama. The officer had been sen. back on a special detail, with orders and authority to detail two non-commissioned ofilcers to assist him In h duties. He had already detailed one, he lacked an- other. and immediately detailed me. This would give another furlough of ten days

Illustrations of the masterly use of en- gineering principles by. living structures were pointed out by a recent address in Philadelphia by MT Henry Leffmann. Numerous bones represent the hollow column. with it's greatest strength for the least material; the articulation of the bones gives joints, which have lubri- eating membranes, and tough interme- diate structure in the case of the knee joint. The elbow exhibits several forms of motions with an apparent defect in the exposed position of the nerve-trunk-the '.crazy bone where it is likely to receive a blow Hydraulic engineering Is demon stratea in the circulatory system, the heart being a pair of double pumps, with it's system of chambers and valves. and an action very similar to that of the pistonless pumps of tho pulsometer.

 The tree, sapindus utilis which is to be cultivated in Algeria as a source of natural soap, has fruit about as large as a chestnut with a dark-colored oily kernel A cutting from the tree reaches a height of six feet in two years, and attains maturity in six years, when 1t bears from 50 to 200 pounds of fruit. Water Or alcohol Is used to extract the Soap, which is claimed to be very su- perior.

 Catarrh, bronchitis and various ear and nervous troubles are already recognized as effects of automobiling.
 A good sense of smell in snails has been recorded by Moquin- -Tandon, and he concluded that the organ is the terminal button at the end of the large feelers The interesting discovery is now announc- ed by M. Emile Yung that the sense of smell is located not only in the feeling organs, but over the entire body. A camel's hair brush dipped in odorous es- sence proved that every part of the body not covered by shell perceived odors, and when the four feelers were ampu- tated the snail could still smell food, while it fled from disagreeable odors.
