FRIDAY, FEBRaARYlsTTsGeT
WORLD'S EXPENSIVE BRIDGES.
The Structure I'niting New York and
Brooklyn Heads the List.
The very latest official computation
puts the total cost of the Brooklyn
bridge at $17,489,855. The bridge when
contracted for was to cost 110,800,000.
At least, such was the original estimate
of John A. Roabling, who iu 18G7 put
the cost of the bridge at $7,000,000 and
of the approaches to it $3,800,000. Ac
tually, the bridge cost $15,000,000,
which was not much of an increase
over the original figures when the dif
ficulties of the undertaking came into
account, the bridge not being opened
until sixteen years after the original
estimate was made. Subsequent ex
penditures, which have brought the
total cost up to the present figure, are
due to the acquisition of new ap
proaches and to improvements upon the
structure which were not and could
not have been calculated upon when it
was opened twelve yee rs ago.
The Brooklyn bridge is the most ex
pensive work of the kind iu the world,
exceeding in cost any other bridge of
which authentic figures are available.
The bridge over the Forth, in Scot
land, cost $14,000,000, the Victoria
bridge in Canada cost $12,000,000, the
bridge across the Volga at Caratov, in
Russia, cost $4,000,000. The cost of
London bridge was $10,000,000, of Water
loo bridge $5,500,000, and of tho West
minster bridge $3,500,000.
With the enormous increase of via
duct wprk for railroad purposes in the
United States the profession of "bridge
builder" has become a very important
one, steel and iron work having largely
superseded masonry, since by improved
processes in their manufacture struc
tural iron and steel have materially de
creased in cost.
GOOD AS GOLD.
How Unused Railway Tickets May Be Re
deemed at Blight Cost.
Some men with valuable unused rail
way tickets on their hands sell them to
scalpers, while others go to the railway
company that issued them and obtain
their value in money. Most men, how
ever, do neither, and accept tho loss
when the ticket is worth less than one
dollar. Indeed, many men do not real
ize that railway companies stand ready
to redeem unused tickets, even of small
value, so that the companies must be
richer by many thousands of dollars per
year by reason of this neglect or igno
rance. Every railway ticket bears the name
of tho general passenger agent
of the road issuing tho sumo. It is a
simple matter to inclose tho ticket with
aletter directed to the general passen
ger agent, asking him to refund the
money paid, and explaining the reason
why the ticket is left unused in the
hands of the pnrchflscr. It iucourtaoua
to Inclose a ktumpvd envelope iu which
the money may bo returned.
When nil theso things have been
done, says tho New York Sun, the
oompuny usually ncknoivlcdgoa tho re
ceipt of tho ticket holder's communica
tion and promise to investigate tho
matter. The Investigation consist in
the proper identification of tho ticket
ana u Uttu bookkeeping to set all right
in the aeeouuU. Tl. tl10 nr,.lmM.r
receives from tho company a eiievW
tho amount due, along with a letter
miiieatliiir acknowledgment on the part
of the recipient. That close the truna
action, and there is no material lowi on
either aide.

a royal favorite. The story spread, and
the queen conld take no more prom
enades with convenience, for she was
certain to encounter every day several
peasants who tried to sell her decrepit
and half-starved donkeys. She bought
none of them.
During her xate visit the queen drove
through Acquisgrana with Jocko, and
his former owner, the peasant, saw the
equipage go by. The donkey was fat,
glossy and glittering with buckles of
fcilver and gold.
"Alas!" exclaimed the peasant.
When I sold the donkey, why didn't I
throw myself in?"
A DEADLY DISEASE OF TO-DAY.
The Great Increase In the Number of
Cases of Tareala.
In connection with tho cock-sure
statement of Mr. Ilowells that tho
present race was never so healthy and
strong as now it is interesting to read
the following paragraph, written by
Dr. T. S. Clouston, superintendent of
the Morningside asylum, Scotland,
says the Medical Record. He says:
"One terrible form of brain disease,
with mental symptoms, is certainly in
creasing. That malady may
be described as a breakdown of the
great center of mind and motion in tho
brain; it always goes on from bad to
worse till it renders its victim utterly
helpless in mind and body and kills
him in a few years. No cure and
scarcely any mitigation of this latter
day curse has yet been devised. It is a
disease of cities, of restless lives, of ac
tive brains in their prime; sometimes
of dissipation und debauchery, of life
at high pressure commonly."
During the past year the asylums of
Scotland received 150 new cases, those
of England 1,400 and those of Ireland
53. The asylum statistics of this coun
try show an even greater number.
In a single asylum of this state, for
example that at Ogdensburg there
were among the 65U admissions 81 cases
of general paresis. This would make
the proportion of general paresis over
4 per cent.
Among seven state asylums, to which
1.94'J patients were admitted in 1800,
there were 60 cases of gsnural pureaia,
or a little omr a ijr cent. If per cent,
bo the general ratio for this disease in
the state of New York then the total
number of paretics among the 10,000 In
sane would Lo about 810. Aaa matter
of fact, tho number is much greater,
because thd roxirt ion of thisdiseaae
U larger in tho New York and King
county asylums than In those of the
state at large. But even If there were
but 4.000 case of general puresl
among the 100,000 insane of thlscouu
try It would be an extraordinary evi
dence ot U development of a disease
which in the lunt cent Ui y wN certainly
not known, even If It did exist.

of Oneiadds, Oneides, Oneids, Oneya
dors, Oneyders, Oneydes, Oneyedas,
Onneydes, Onueydoes, Onyades, Onye
dauns and Oneida. From time imme
mortal it has always been their custom
to regard with great solemnity a cer-i
tain huge bowlder which went with
them from one place to another when
ever they changed their habitations.
Tho Oueidas were referred to- by the
other Indians as the people with th
stone, and they called it onia, oinott
meaning a man who had sprung from
a stone. It was used by those red men
as a kind of sacrificial altar, and in
front of it the sachems held their coun
cil fires, celebrated the feasts of the
dead, and worked themselves into a
frenzy of excitement with their war
dances.
The stone stood on the summit of a
foothill overlooking the valley of the
Oneida creek, and there it remained
unmolested after the Oneidas joined,
the federation and long after the
last bold warrior had gone to his happy
hunting ground in the unknown world
beyond this mundane sphere. The
stone was readily identified, for the
legends of the tribe made known ita
history, and Dr. M. M. Bagg, the li
brarian of the Oneida Historical soci
ety, had it removed many years ago to
the Forest Hill cemetery, where it can
yet be seen. ..
RATHER ABSENT MINDED.
The I'rofeasor Thought the Under Pie

A certain one of our sclentlfie men
man whom you can't help knowing if
you have had much business with the
Smithsonian institution has the repu
tation of being extremely absent-minded,
says the Washington Star. I don't
believe most of the stories they tell
about him, but here is one on whose
truth I am willing to stake my beat
bonnet. He's a married man, this scien
tific person, and his wife is a good
housekeeper. She is an excellent cook,
too, but she prefers to buy most of her
pastry ready made. She bought a pie
the other day. a juicy pie, a blueberry
pie, in fact. All day long it lay on the
pantry shelf In one of those thin paste-

the lower crust you know how blue
berry pies do and when the lady of
the house that la to say, the cook
put it on the dinner table, the paste
board plate went with it. The acton
tiliit mini wife cut the pie, and to
make tho handling of it easier, cut the
pasteboard plate, too. The scientific
man took bis slice of pie and ate it med
itatively. His wife kept silence. He
ate the top crust aud the bluuberrlea
