ENGINEER WOULD

some projects, even in ihis age of engineering achievements. may fairly be called audacious. says the valdez Miner. and or these none is more startling shan the suggested building of a railway from the United states to Europe by way Of bridge across Boring sral
 The width of the strait from the extremity of the East Cape. on the Asiatic si6e, to the Point Prince of Wales Cape. on the American side, Is not more than forU-tive miles wide. and within this distance. placed sl- most in straight line, as fl to sup ply the foundation for the abutments ot a bridge. are the three Diomede Islands
 Moreover the waters ot the straR are shallow aad it is claimed that caissons for the foundation of a great bridge could be sunk to a con siderable depth
 The two continents, are. in fact, joined by submarine banks, and 1t ls known that at former time that animals and species of plants crossed from one continent Co the other The natives ot the region stnl preserve the tradition Of this joining Of the land.
 The Chukchis. who greatly resem- ble the Eskhnos and live on the As iauc side. relate that the land thnt made the former isthmus sank into the water during terrible combat between a varrier and a great white bear.
 More than one engineer has held that it would be practicable to con struct a bridge across this strip of water seperating America from Asia and the old World from the New. Bus a railway journey from New Yorl to Paris. even f the engineering genius or the future should make it possible, would take a much longer time. on the fastest trains. than a voyage across the Atlantic on aswifi liner. and would probably cost very much more. 1t would be a luxury Co he enjoyed only by wealthy persons who strongly dislike ocean travel

CHESTERS SHAME.

Other counties in our Northeln
States may be as. guilty, but no other
perhaps so frankly confesses it's shame
as does Chester County, Pa, within
whose borders, at Coatesville, an un-
tried prisoner waA burnt alive by
mob. Hundreds know who did the
horrid deed. and the officers Of the law
have tried to convict several charged
with the murder, but no jury will
convict. There are too many citizens
who approve of murder and do not
wish it punished. The officers Of the
law, judge and prosecuting attorney do
their duty, but the citizens are at
fault. SO now the Supreme Court Of
the State is asked for a change venue.
in order that the trial may be moved
from county where conviction is
| impossible, whatever the evidence. OF
course there are worthy citizens who
depore the condition; and the presbY-
terry of Chester County has by unali-
; nous vote Of it's ministers and laymcn
adopted a resolution which says:
THAT such crime could be com
mitted in our midst is bumiliatinG
enough. but that such crime should
go unpuunshed and that an Attorney
General should feel it necessary to
ask for change Of venue in order tc
secure a conviction, owing to the al.

not found wanting.
