BY THE WAYSIDE

The interest in the State and Ma
tional elections this year. rose TO the
highest pitch. This was indicated by
the size Of the two parades on Satur-
day night. which consumed over an
hour in moving past a given point.
Even the tots on the streets. seem
TO have caught the general wave of en-
thusiasm. If you meet them on their
way TO school you win find the absorb
ing topic OF conversation TO be the oft
reiterated statement that Taft or
Bryan will be the next President. And
they are just as serious and earnest
about II, as their fathers and big
brothers
The feverish eagerness on the part OF
partisans of different candidates IS ex-
pected to cause the largest crowd in
Wilmington's history. to gather tonight
on the streets. and especially in front
.of the newspaper offices.
Although the Christmas season 4,

REMOVING TRAINSHED.
Hoe Structure at Grand Central
Station Is Being Displaced.

The thousands of commuters, not mention the
urnunbered long distance travellers, who the
Grand Central Station every day have been aware
for many months now that something Icing
done by way Of tearing down the trainshed: but
the work has been going smoothly and
there have been such slight evidences of anything
out Of the ordinary that probably nnety-nine
out of hundred have correct idea as to just
VrEat the New York Central is doing. This is be-
cause most persons are in hurry both going and
coming at q railroad station.
II announced at the offices Of the road on
Saturday. however. that one-half of the work of
destruction had been completed. and that there
fore the prospect of a new and larger station was
just much nearer realization. And while the
work has been going on methodicaly the doing
OF 1t required interesting feats in the gentle
of demolition To remove trainshed that is
go feet long and S. feet high. to mention 200
feet and : inch in diameter, is a Job that would
puzzle even those East Side 'Toft thieves" who
are reputed be able TO take anything except
red hot stove.
In getting away with the trainshed the New
York Central engineers constructed traveller,
which is great structure of wood that fits under
the trainshed The traveller" Is a support that
holds up the iron and glass arch and prevents X
from falling when sections cut out of II. The
traveller may be in the photograph re-
produced herewith and while it looks fiulsy in
comparison with the ironwCrk behind it there
are sxty-fve tons Of bolts used IN holding this
wooden structure together. The traveller lives
up its name by reason OF five great iron wheels
that bear It many tracks. Thus. the tray
cler' started three hundred feet from its present
site and as the transhed Topped off IN slices
ten feet deep the traveller edged back ten
feet at a time by means OF Jacks
II connection with the old trainshed there are
some interesting statistics. 1t was built in 1870
ana all the ironwork came from England There
were in II ! $50 tons Of wrought iron and $50
Of cast iron. The roofing required $1,000 square
feet Of corrugated iron and approximately two
acres of glass. Besides, in the construction were
80 90 bricks IN taking down all this material
the worknen perched the semicrcle Of the
..travellers' MAKE eight cuts the huge ribs OF
the shed and each slice comes down separately.
And meanwhile said J. c. Hammond. of the
COMPANY remember that there 1,027 trains
running in and OF this station every day So
far as the running time goes the tearing down has
no effect"
