HIS LIFE FOR A HAND
An English Legend OF the Time
of the Crusaders.

In little town or village in Glou-
cestershire there is church which
contains the mortal remains of one of
the old crusaders. In moldering effigy
he is depicted on the tomb, while by
his side in cold eloquence is imaged
the form of his wife. 1t will be notic-
ed by even the casual observer that the
female image is bereft of one of the
hands, and the story runs that the cru
sader while fighting in the east was
made a prisoner of war and brought
before Saladin, who, before executing
judgement upon him, asked him if
there was any reason why he should not
be put to death. To this the knight
replied that he was but young and
would leave newly welded wife,
who would bitterly mourn his loss.
1.-The love of woman is as a fieeting
BREATH" retorted the sultan. Your
wife will forget that you have ever
lived; she will love again and marry
another. To this the sad knight
could only reply that on her fidelity he
could rest his soul. well, then, " re-
piled Saladin, Il will promise on my
oath as soldier that if this man s
wife will cut off one of her hands and
send it tome | will set him free to go
to her" By tedious and slow journey
ings the message came, and she, in all
piteousness for him VINO was her lover
and her lord, caused her hand to be
cut off and sent it to the sultan, who
kept his word and set the crusader
free. London Notes and Queries.

The dredging plant consists of two

installed for furnishing lights for
work at night and for the require

one 6-inch Heron pump, two 10-inch
Sanil-Sheel pumps, four 10-inch cen
/
trifugal pumps, one 3-inch Emerson

service. Efforts are being made by the

been satisfactory.
The method of constructing the dam
is asfollows: The foundation is laid
/ continuous in consecutive blocks up tC
! about three feet above the level of low
water mark. On this foundation are
constructed alternating blocks thirty
feet long and up to the the full height
of the dam-about twenty feet. This
gives a series of piers built upon sol.

the process is then to be repeated until
the whole space between the piers il

will be divided and the difficulty OF
controlling the river will be minimiz
ed. This method, too, allows the usC
of low cofferdams, which will have tC
be removed to the level of low water
to hold the level at its minimum

esy of Ellis H, Baillie, of the contract
ing firm of Baillie & Dumary, who are
building the plant, an inspection of
the whole work was made.
When will the lock and dam be COM
pleted2
1t is impossible to state the exact
date, but unless unforeseen obstacles
are met with, power from the plant
will be delivered in Ct attanooga by
July 1, of this year. 1t is probable
that the full amount of the power will
be developed by the middle of October

plant will be virtually complete by the
lst of January, 1910.
There are from $50 to 400 laborers at
present engaged on the work, and this
number will be increased in the spring
to 200. With this number properly di-

may be done within the course of a
