Springs Below at New York Street. For the past three months the road de j p&rtment of the Manhattan derated railway has been carrying on a very. difnoTut piece of engineering- work at Bowery and Bayard street. At that point the cable company is building a plant, and the operation makes it neces-' sary for the elevated . company to sink three pillars forty-five feet below the street level in order to get below tne cable company's obstruction. These pillars are built of brick and their form- j dations are forty feet below grade. They are 8 feet at the base and 4 feet at the top. . - - . Many persons are not aware' that sparkling springs of water flow beneath the surface of this busy city, but run ning water was -found at a depth of thirty-five feet where the excavation was made. There was a bubbling spring where each pillar was built. ' ' One of the springs spouted 500 gallons a minute, and it required a 4-inch centrifugal pump to keep the hole clear until the mason work could be finished. Roadmaster Black has a large bottle filled with the water, which is as clear as crystal and of fine quality. The sand about the spring is as fine and white as beach sand. New York Telegram. - - A Bride and a Widow in One Day. Pretty seventeen-year-old Conception Sylva, a Portuguese maiden of Contra Costa county, was a bride at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon in West Berkeley, and three hours later she was a widow. She was married to Frank Bispo, a young Portuguese, dairyman, and after the ceremony and reception the wedding guests repaired to the station, where the young couple were to take the train Cor San Francisco. While waiting for the train Bispo took a little nephew in his arms and trotted up the track, while several others walked along the railroad. -Suddenly the shriek of the overland flier was heard,- and a moment after it swept around a curve. It disappeared in an instant. On . one side of the track was Bispo, dead. In his arms lay his little nephew, alive, but badly wounded. On the other side of the .track lay the . body of Mrs. Sylva All three had been struck by the train. The grief of the bride was heartrending. The mourning party went to the house, where the wedding supper was cold oh the table. San Francisco Cor. Chicago ueraia. Brain Holds the Orchard. """The Hon.
