A HARD NUT TO CRACK.
Drinking Of Beer Does Not Tend &c
Discourage Use Of Distilled and
Other Strong Liquors.

A professional English statistician.
Mr. j. Holt Schooling. who has bad 20
years experience tabulating the reports
OF governments. has furnished a hard
nut for the advocates OF beer drinking
TO crack These latter are wont To de-
clare that the drinking OF beer tends TO
discourage the use OF distilled and other
strong liquors. We quote from an ex-
change a summary OF strong article

A Painless BRIDGE.
II Ia an Odd Construction Across the
River hersey Between Widnss
and Runcorn.

An odd bridge has recently been
completed across the River Mersey
connecting the towns Of widnes and
Runcorn.
Its PECULIARLY lies In the fact tina.
the bridge possesses neither footpath
nor roadway for yehicular traffic. In.
stead the bridge Is provided with a
car accommodating four wagons and
900 passengers al one time. and this
car makes trips across the river "a
often as the trafic requires.
From steel towers 100 feet In height
stretches a track held up on the sus-
pension principle. and the car maacs
the passage some 80 feet above the
surface OF the river.
This peculiar form is used TO over
come the necessity for building
lengthy approaches on either side II
the river In order that the shipping
may not be obsiructed. and the passen-
gers are taken on at the waters edg3
the car being lowered TO landing stS-
ton.
A bridge adjoining requires a trip a
quarter OF a mile inland In order that
the grade of the incline may not b.
made too heavy. and this newer bri0g0
IL designed 10 avoid that delay.

ARREST THE TUBA PLAYER
Gotham Police Mistook One Of
Thomas Musicians for a
Practical Joker.

Louis. A. Julien was the first con-
ductor who played a large orchestra
In New York. One of his pieces was
"Fireman's Quadrille," during the
performance Of which an alarm OF FIRE
was regularly sounded and a brigade
OF firemen appeared In the hall. Theo-
dore Thomas was one OF Jullien's vio-
linists for q time. and this may help
to explain why he himself, In 1867.
when he gave his Terrace garden con
certs In New York, once created a
sensation by making the piccolo play
ers climb up into the trees before the
piece began.
On another occasion Ia the same
place the tuba player had been sent
behind the audience into the shrub
berry. When be began to play the
police mistook him for a practical
joker who was disturbing the music,
and tried to arrest him.
II shall never forget the oomical
scene" Thomas writes In his Auto
biography, las the poor man fed to-
ward the stage. pursued by the irate
policeman, and trying to get in a note
