These Structures.
Uncle Sam Is the father Of the tres
a. bridge. When a census was taken
4uenty years ago 1t was found that
mere we're 10000 wooden trestle
edges, extending in the aggregate
100 miles, for single line railways.
The longest. over Lake Pontchartrain.
measured twenty-five miles. One Of
mo highest wooden trestle bridges
measured 211 feet in height and 75l
int in length. Steel Is now displacing
timber because the latter, although
les costly at first, requires frequent
examination and renewal
The first Of the large metal trestle
aructures was built over thirty years
,eo, and some Of these have a height
a over 300 feet above river level and
are made to carry on one span the
concentrated load of two locomotives,
nch Of 100 tons weight. The factor
d safety is less than in the wooden
aructure, but it suf1ces. The trestIe
design is among the Oldest and sim
pest Of engineering structures and has
developed to great proportions in its
simplest form.
The germ idea was trestle with
two end supports Of inverted shape
and a connecting bar on the top. As
the distance to be spanned increased
vertical posts were put between the
BY a cross timber or cap. In the de-
yelopment of new countries where tim
Der abounded bridges were thus easily
and quickly built up of wood Spans
Of fifty feet could be erected in a few
days, but where the height as in deep
gOrges or canyons, was great the logs
became immense spider webs Of verti-
cal, transverse and diagonal posts,
frames and bars.

Brussels, BY Cable.-King Leopold
died at 2:35 o'clock Friday morning,
his aged and wasted body being Il
able to stand the strain put upon 1t.
The collapse occurred suddenly and
at a moment when the doctors SEEM
ingly had had the greatest hopes for
his recovery.
It appears that the doctors were
totally unprepared for a fatal term
ination. 1t was a nun, acting as a
nurse, who first noticed the heavy
breathing of the king. She called Or.

resorted to injections Of morphine:
hut these had no effect.

council have adjourned and flags are

Under the constitution the affairs

conception of negro education in the
South; methods Of educational CAM
paiens; the service Of the state uni
versity; present status Of college ed
ucation; higher education of women;
the movement for the education of
adults; the supervision OF. rural
schools; the Improvement of teachers;
Southern summer schools; develop
ment of rural high schools; second
airy agricultural education in the
South; secondary education in Eu-
rope; European and American trade
schools, etc..
The most progressive Southern uni
versity, colleges and normal schools
will make exhibits of their equip
ments, special facilities, etc., bear
ing especially upon the professional
preparation of teachers in secondary
and elementary schools. Some of the
leading Southern industrial high and
elementary schools, also several kin
dergarten schools, will exhibit the
work they have done.
The railroads have granted half
rates and hotels will also give special
rates. Charlotte is a large COM
mercial and industrial center, and an
excellent place for meeting.

King Leopold lay in state in the roy

who had patiently waited their turn

the mortuary chamber, while priests
chanted the Miserere and a process
