One Cut on tli Plan of a Cork
irren. Others Straight and Long
On tliu St. Uuthurd railway, not
far from the f unous lmg tunnel,
there is a remarkable tunnei on the
plan nfn corkscrew. In the descent
t! the mountain it was found im
ps9iiie iw lay out a sale incline on
a straight line or ordinary curve,
and the engineer got over the
difficulty Ijy driving a tunnel which
enters the mountain h'vh on t!:e
aide, constantly describing a circle
through the solid rock, constantly
descending as :t aoas so, reappears
under itself oa the mountain sid;
somedi.nnce below, then dives in
to the rock, sain circles and sinks
as it circles until it again emerges
into daylight under itself, when the
line resumes it3 course down hill in
a more familiar wav. The making
f a tunnel like this is as striking
an example of engineering skill as
the world can show, and many very
skillful things have been done by
our railway makers. The art et'
tunneling is an old ne, but it never
attained such pertection as dis
tinguishes it fo day. There is a
wsndeit'u! tunnel at Ciiicay driven
in 1852, two miles out under the
bottom o' the loks, so that tht city
may obtain a water supply free
from the refuse of the city. Thi
tunnel, which has now been dou
bled, has two shafts, one on land
and one in the bed of the lake,
rising through a crib, which crib is
defended by a breakwater, and
serves as the foundation of a light
house. Ttis was a difficult work
to manage, owing to its being
through clay ::nd ijuicka ind, but
it is a mere nothing ns to ieugth.
This is; for instance, the Croton
aqueduct from Crottn down to
New York, which is driven through
solid rock for thirty-three and one
iburth miles. The IIosic tunnel
is four nnd tures-touth miies in
length, and m twen.j-six feet wide
and twenty-one and one-hail feet
high. In Peru, c;i the Lima &
Oroyo r.iilroaJ, there are tr.tj
tunnels in a hundred miles, the
longest oeing oa the summit of the
pass througli the And.-s. This
tunnel is two rni'e? higher above
.ea level tii::n either the .t. Goth
anl or Mont Cenis, and all the tools
and stores had to be carried up Vuc
mountains on mule back.
Chinese cheap labor is lnaknig it J
sclt lolt even in Lurofie. Swedish
matciunalvcrs have uatit iceently
controlled t!io principal markets of
the world, tnd immense quantities
f their product have been exported
ia every direction. The Chinese
have gone into the business, how
ever. and. in accordance with their
usui! custm. have commeaccd by
cutting down prices to a limit
which" CR'innt be reached even by
the cheapest f Kurojiean cheep

Freucli women seem to cling to

novelty has been brought out, viz., a
purse inserted in the palm of the

made in the palm, to which is then
attached a metal rim: th:s onen.
showing a white kid lining ferming
a complete white purse. A better
purse could hardly be invented.

A HANDSOME IJI'ILT.
It Will Contain Autograuli.s of the
President and All iJovernors.
Spokane Falls Review
j Mrs. Biin kerliofF, the secretary
j of tlie ladies's society of the First
i congregational Church, was very
I much delighted a few davs ao
! over the receipt of a letter from
! President Harrison inclo:.irg a very
handsome piece of white silk,
:;cross which were the autographs
wi iiiu i ilk iinu 1113 n iit uaiuu
: November 1st.
J The piece of lilk is destined to
; form the center s(ji!ire Ot the cen
; tenuial ijuiit, upon w hich the ladies
i ol tie First Congregational Church
i are hard at wrk. There will be
'squares" from .every state and
j territory in the Union, with auto
graphs of the Governors and their
f wives, if married, on each. The
ladies have also secured a square
frm each member of the l'resi
dent's Cabinet, and in the arrange
j tnent of the quilt these will im
mediately surround the President's
square, ttie "joveruor s squares in
tarn sui rounding them.
A square has been secured from
the lodian d purtiuent ot the Fish
University ot NBhyilie, Tenn.,
anil is of particular interest, from
the fact that the First Congrega
tional Church of Spokane had its
origin in the old Indian mission.
It is expected to have the quilt
for sale by December 1st, the pro
ceeds to be devoted to the building
lundofthe church. It will be a
very clegint ufl'air when completed
as it is to be sold to the highest
bidder. A good round sum ought
to be realized for it. The quilt
sheuid never be allowed to ieaye
Spi!;ane.

A
Clever Invenlivu Displayed
at
the I'aris Kxiiosition.
Saeilusliorn News.
Oueofthf. most uotable inven
tion, displayed at the Paris Exhi
bition is an apparatus fcr trans
forming the heat of the sun iuto
motive power for pumping water
and other mechanical uses. It is
the device of a French inventor
named Charles Tillier.
The apparatus is of great interest
as forethadjwing the time when
solar heat, in combination with
electric transmission of force, will
be made to furnish motive power
for all engines and take the place
of coal and steam, a change which
will vastly cheapen manufactures
and travel aud greatly enhance
human comlort the world over.
The heat which comes to the
earth in thesuu's beams is, as has
long been known, the equivalent of
Irani one to live or more horse
power lr every square yard et the
earth's surface, according to the
latitude aud the season or the year.
The utilization of this wase
heat, its conversion iutu unable j
power, has wen the study of in
venters, an 1 much time and great
sums of moiu'3 have been spent
upon it. M. Yci.ier's cor.tiivai.ee
