Rival Gangs Of Workmen on Bridge
Building Working for Prize Money

NEW YORK, Feb. 14.-A mid-air
race for a cash prize Of $4,000 is now
in progress in New York. The con-
testants are rival gangs of men at
work on what is known as Blackwells
Island bridge which is to connect
New York with Long Island City.
The bridge is on the cantilever style
with one pier on Blackwells Island.
The company constructing the bridge
has offered the prize to the workmen
who first connect with the Blackwells
Island pier. One gang is working
from the New York side, the other
from the Long Island side. The first
gang to couple onto the middle struc-
ture will receive the prize. AS there
are about $50 men in each gang the
cash prize to each member of the
gang first reaching the island pier
with the far reaching iron beams
which are slowly creeping out over
the two channels of the east river
will be about $40.

THE cHATAUQUA.

We shall be infinitely glad to see
the Chatauqua grounds located in
this neighborhood, and everybody is
hoping no impediment may be raised
to deter nor battle the acquisition. II
is an advantageous element to have
at hand, in any community; aside
from the fact that it brings in thou
sands OF people, season after season,
to the certain profit of local COM
merce in all lines.
The moral influence of the associa-
ton is OF the highest type and re-
fleets to the credit of any community
engaging it; and it is always a
source of interest and entertainment.
Anyway one looks at such an attain
ment, it is of pronounced value. Re-
course should be had to all possible
agencies to make the winning OF it
here, or hereabouts and to its main
tenance ever afterward.

ARTILLERY cuRloslrlEs.


Old Time Cannon That Wsrs Made of
Leather Wood and Rock.
Among the curiosities OF artillery
odd inventions have great place.
Cannon have been made Of the most
unlikely materials, Leather was used
as early as Henry Wills day at the
siege OF Boulogne, The very articles
were stored in the tower once, and
Evelyn saw them there. Inscribed
"Non Marti opus est cui non deficit
Mercurius." Are they still lying In
some corner Of forgotten lumber
rooml The Scotch employed leather
guns In 1910 to batter Lord Conway's
Notifications at Newbourne, and they
did the work well. Describing the fe'
verish alarm In Paris In 1702, Carlyle
says: zone citizen has wrought out the
scheme of wooden cannon. which
France shall exclusively profit BY In
the first instance. It is to be made Of
slaves by the coopers. Of almost bound
less caliber, but uncertain as to
strength"
Two small pieces brought to France
by the Siamese ambassadors as pres
ents from their king to Louis XIV,
were the only artillery procurable for
the attack on the Bastille-of eccentric
model no doubt, adorned with dragons
and golden inscriptions. but efficient
workmanship. We read OF gold cannon
in India. There were two so de.
scribed at Baroda In Burton's time
''to which regular alteration was Of.
fered." In fact. the tubes were OF
steel. but the massive gold casing cost
100000.
For the defense Of Malta In the old
days the knights invented a kind Of
ordnance of their own, unknown to all
the world beside" says Brydone, an
eyewitness. They followed out the nat
ural rock here and there In such fash.
ion that the cavity was like mortar,
put barrel Of gunpowder into the
hole, plugged 1t with wooden disk
exactly fitting and heaped miscellane-
GUS projectiles thereupon. About fifty
Of these singular cannon defended
creeks and landing places. Some Of
them were six feet In diameter and
threw 10000 pounds weight Of iron or
stone Into the air. Doubtless II al
went well they would do tremendous
execution upon an enemy trying to
disembark.
But there are eccentricities still mure
curious on record. In tomb on the
island of Chinal, near Usumacinta,
Mexico, was found cannon four feet
eleven inches long Of terra Gotta, with
terra Gotta bullets. II Is suggested
that when Cortes retired after bis
great fight at Ceutla. Tabasco, the M.
tlves copied the Spanish guns In clay,
hoping to produce the same results

MORE HOMES NEEDED.

Astoria is peculiarly city of homes
and homes that are occupied by their
owners. The tenant-element here has
to make the most of the old and worn
out homes (that have been abandon
ed for newer ones), and of the fats
and suites and second-story utilities
from which all honey" elements
are excluded. What is needed in As
toria is line of four, FIVE and six
room cottages Cor even larger ones)
that are separate and give one a
chance to live without someone etern
ally at the elbow. There is de-
mand for this kind of service and
any number of lots, vacant and un
profitable, waiting for such an enter
prise; and that the city is notorious
for the old and ramshackle tenements
that dis6gure it, is another reason for
the substitution of the better class
buildings. People are not going to
put up with these "discards" always,
and their perpetuation is a menace to
the up-building of the city.

A l2,ooo-MILE CUT OFF.

A little 700-ton steamer out of De-
troit, and bound for San Francisco,
via Cape Horn, is now at New York,
fitting out for the long-leg OF the voy-
age. She is headed for a port that IS
distant from her point of departure,
1000 miles as the "crow flies," but she
will travel 1900, before she casts
her mooring lines on the docks at
San Francisco.
If the Panama canal were finished
and in working order, she would save
1900 miles of that huge traverse.
This is another object lesson in
which the potentialities of that mag
nihcent project are emphasized and
which indicate the enormous savings
Of distances, jeopardy and cost that
will accrue with its completion.
One of the wisest things President
Roosevelt ever did was to take the
management of that great enterprise
out OF the hands of men easily subsi-
died by the antagonistic transporta-
ton concerns, and put it in the hands
of the brainy, order -obeying, and
equally competent officers Of the
United States army.

lieve until conviction became impera'
tive for salvation: it went its happy
prosperous, busy way, until the signs
and warnings became so thick and
pertinent, it had to halt and note the
trend of danger it was following,
We are convinced there should be
no let-up on the reveltions that are
to make the people wise to their own
laches and their own jeopardy. Such
lessons are essential to the purg-
ing of the public mind of its inertia
and worse, and can but contribute i'm
mensely to the clearing away OF the
false and vicious standards and to the
accentuating OF the lines that must be
adhered to in the campaign OF re

THE TRUTH SINKING IN.

Day by day the people Of America
are being told a series of home
truths about the conditions of the
country, that are sinking into the
inner consciousness of the masses
and awakening sense of interest and
solicitude that means much for re-
demption later on. These tales come
from men who are in the high places
of the nation and bear the weight
and stamp Of authority that admits OF
no gainsaying. The President, Secre-
tary Taft, Secretary Garfield, and
other notables, all clean, knowledg-
able, trusted servants of the people,
are responsible for the indictments
and those who hear and read and
think are beginning to realize the
extremity to which the commercial

day have gone.

ST. VALENTINE.

AS Santa Claus stands the patron
saint OF the children, so stands ST.
Valentine for the youngsters OF larg
er growth, yet in the bloom and blush
of youth; and fastival that engages
these heirs of ours in an open express
sion of their JOY, that brings them
distinctive pleasure, is to be cherished
and made the most OF. There is
nothing too good for the young; they
are entitled to the fulness of happi-
ness in the years when all the world
is sweet and clean and before they
have taken over the wearing and
warning experiences that are wrought
of the cares and hazards of life.
A happy youth fortifes against the
sterner things that follow and makes
for kindlier and gentler views, and
reviews; the cheer and light and
wholesome joy of our younger days
have their play and influence at re-
moter seasons when they are needed
and most welcome. Laughter and
smiles and all the rapturous elements
that go to garnish the life of the
young are just so much tribute to
the peace and beauty of old age, and
it were we'll that none of these shall
be abridged in the hours of childhood
and youth. The memory of early de-
lights, simple and pure and unalloyed,
lives longest, marks deepest and
serves best, for all mankind.
