iiS ioui NociCS WCiSil osCOo,OOO lbs. The natural life" of the bridge is 10000 years.
 The volume of traffic across this bridge is something wonder ful. Iwalked across to Brooklyn between $ and 9 o'clock in the morning, just at the time the traffic is very great. In going over I counted about 100 cars, every one being crowded.
 The Egyptian Obelisk
 was to me one of the most in. teresting things in Central Park. It is a single stone, 699 feet high, : feet 9 inches by : feet St in at the base and weighs 44S,000 lbs. The monument was erected at Heliopalis, Egypt, in the 18th century by Thothmes III, one of the Pharos, who reigned from 1891 to 1865 B. c. In 12 B. C., when Rome became mistress of the world, Augustus Caesar caused the Obelisk to beremoved to Alexandria, Egypt, and erect ed before the temple of the Caesars. In 1877 the Khedie of Egypt presented this Obelisk to the United States. ItwaS brought over by Fl. H. Garringe, U. $. N. and erected in Central Park, N. Y. in 1881. The total cost of re- moving the monument was S102, 376, which was contributed by William H. Vanderbilt.
 The monument was old when Moses read the inscription of the Pharos on it. Today it has be- hind it B centuries, during which tune it has stood as an imperish- able memorial of the PharoS. It has seen kings and empires rise, flourish and pass away. How the Egyptians quarried it, transport ed it 1000 miles from Syene to Heliopolis and erected it there is one of the unsolved mysteries of antiquity.
 Many other interesting things were seen, such as the Stock EX- change, the Cotton Exchange, Eden Musee Museum of Art and Natural History, China Town, and the slums of the city. My visit of one week in New York has been of great educational value to me.
 We sailed up the historic Hud- son river to Albany on the new steamer, Hendrick Hudson. There were 5000 people on board when we left New York. We passed many places of historic interest on the way. Washington Irwin's home, Tarryton, Helen Gould's home, John D. Rocke- feller's home, West Point, Cats kill mountains etc, were some of the places passed. The scenery is beautiful. There is nothing much of interest at Albany ex- cept the new state capitol which cost $26, 100000,
 The climax of our trip was reached perhaps when we looked for the first time upon Niagara Falls. 1 have no words that will begin to describe it's grandeur.
 Our stay in Chicago was short. We visited Marshall Field store, the largest in the world, Lincoln park and a few other places of interest and left for home, reach ing there Aug ,, thankful for our sightseeing journey and our safe arrival home.

NO HOPE FOR SAFETY
Several Hundred Men Entombed

Fhis Circumstance Together With the
Fact That the coIIiery Entrance Is

Connellsville, Pa, Dec 20.-Between
Hhree and four hundred miners are
Entombed in the Darr mines of the
Rittsburg Coal company at Jacobs
Greek, on the Youghiogheny river,
eighteen miles west of here. OF these
ully 100 are Americans, the rest be-
ing principally Hungarians.
A terrific explosion shook the vicin-
bty of the mine and shortly after

Enputh Of the mine was wrecked and

The building of the Federal Supply

PitifuI Scenes at Mouth of Pit.
Within a few minutes after the ex-

rounded by the relatives mad friends
of the entombed men. The scenes
were most pitiful. The smoke and
DANES issuing from the slope made it
impossible to enter and the wives and
children were frantic.
Every effort is being made to sub

This is the third big mine catas-
Itrophe which has occurred in this
vicinity during the past three weeks.
The first occurred at the Naomi mine
'of the United Coal company and thirty
.four men sacrificed their lives. Two
weeks ago the explosion of dust at

Lives of $50 more.
The latest report from the Darr

'ened miners is fully $50.
Usually 400 men are employed, but
the Russian contingent did not go to
work for the reason that it was one
of their holidays and they stayed out
side.
So far all efforts at rescue have
been vain. Every time any one at
tempts to enter the mine he is driven
back by the smoke and flames.

EXPRESS BEST WISHES
Leading Japs Discuss Voyage Of
American BattIeship Fleet.
HOPE 1T WILL VISIT FAR EAST

Anxious for an Opportunity to Show
Their Friendship for Officers and
Men of Uncle Sans Navy.
Toxic Dec 20-The following inter-
views have been granted exclusively
to the Associated Press:
Japan will heartily welcome the
American feet of battleships to the
Pacific and to the ports of this coun-
try if it be decided to extend the trip
in this direction.
'The fact that the feet is sailing
towards the Pacific creates no excite
ment here and as / have said before
to the Associated Press Japan views
in the friendliest manner any action
America may, within the scope of wis.
dom, see fit to take in the disposition
of its naval forces, because the Japa-
nese people have absolute confidence
in the friendly attitude of the states
men and the great mass of the peo
pie We hope that the fleet may have
a successful and safe voyage and
Americans everywhere may rest as
sured that should the fleet decide to
visit the Far East at no place will it
receive a heartier welcome than in
Japan"
Foreign Minister Viscount Hayashi,
in giving the above statement to the
Associated Press representative voiced
the sentiment of the whole Japanese
people Admiral Count Togo said:
Togo Extends Warm Welcome.
Il am very glad that the feet has
started for the Pacific. If I am cor
rectly informed it is expected on this
side in April or May next If it should
ultimately touch on our shores we
will greet them as friends and give
them the Warmest reception.
we entertain nothing but the kind
iiest feelings towards American sail
ors.'
The minister OF the navy, Admiral
S2lJO, Sat0,
"The American feet will be heartily
welcomed should it visit Japan. I
know Admiral Evans we'll. He is a
delightful gentleman and splendid
sailor and l certainly hope that he
will bring his ships on this side and
give us a chance to show our apprecia-
tion of his good qualities"
Prince Ito. resident general of Ko-
rea. said:
"America has always been a help
full friend to Japan and the japanese
are staunch admirers of President
Roosevelt We have never had any
other idea than that it was quite the
intention Of America to dispatch a
fleet where it was desired and it will
be especially welcomed should it come
to. Japan. I have always maintained
that talk of war between Japan and
America is unspeakable and unthink-
able and the attitude of the people
towards the feet will ultimately prove
the sincerity of our words, which have
been consistently friendly"
