A Novel Bridge Bt Koaen.
This novel engineering work is called
a “pout transbordenr" and is designed
to fulfill all the purposes of a bridge,
while it will offer no obstruction to the
passago of ships with towering masts.
On each side of the river will be erected
a small Eiffel tower, about 170 feet in
height, and these towers will be joined
at the top by a latticework bridge upon
which lines of rails will be laid. On
these rails will run a skeleton platform,
whioh can bo pulled from side to side
by the agency of steam or eleotrioity.
From this platform, which will be 160
feet above the quays, will depend steel
wire ropes, which will support at the
level of the river banks a slung carriage
large enough to acoommodate a tram oar
full of passengers, besides other vehioles.
It is intended that this novel form of
bridge shall be in connection with the
tram system at both sides of the river,
so that passengers oan be carried across
the river without leaving their seats in
the cars. The work of building the tow
ers has already been oommenced, and it
is expeoted that the bridge will be open
for traffic in 18 months’ tima It is said
that the only contrivance bearing any
resemblance to this “pont transbor-
denr” is in operation at Bilbao.—Cham

J*It ilriK Professor Scbroeder of Louis-
ville,” volunteered a surgeon to a re-
porter, "Who first ventured the opinion
that the negro never sneezes. The state-
ment was made in reply to a question by
Professor Gross, the famous Philadel-
phia surgeon. A smile passed aronnd
the listeners, and Professor 8chroeder,
observing that there was some doubt
about his statement, reiterated it with
some force.
‘He then explained that while there
were no structural arrangements about
the breathing apparatus of the oolored
raoe that has been discovered which pre-
vented it from sneezing it was a fact
that the colored man did not sneeze,
though he could be made to sneeze by the
use of snuffs, pepper and other irritants.
He had, he said, never made any experi-
ments in that connection. He also snid
bis observation had been confined to
oolored people in the southern states.
Atmosphexio or other conditions might
exist elsewhere which might cause him
to sneeze, but none existed naturally in
the south.
‘The debate on the subject occupied
nearly an hour at a meeting of the In-
ternational Surgical association, which
held a convention in the old Lincoln
hall some years ago. Since then I have
often spoken of it and asked my friends
to notice, and, though I have direoted
the attention of hundreds to the subject,
I have yot to hear the first one to say
that he ever heard a negro man or wom-
an sneeze. By negro I mean a black
man or woman. I believe tbat mulat-
toes sneeze occasionally, and the nearer
they aro to white the moro frequently
they sneeze, but even they are less sen-
sitive to influences which produce sneez-
ing than the people of tho white race.
It has been observed also that Indians
sneeze very seldom, while Chinese
sneeze ten times as much even as the
white race. ”—Washington Star.
Rough on Brahms.
Brahms was a hearty eater and par-
ticularly fond of Italian cookery. One
day ho and Dr. Billroth, the eminent
Anstrian surgeon, visited Herr Wich-
maun in Rome and were invited to a
breakfast alia romana. The host’s cook,
Mora, did her prettiest, and the wine
supplemented her efforts. "That’s the
wiuothat Horaco drank, ” said Dr. Bill-
roth enthusiastically. Brahms’ thoughts
were on the viands he had just enjoyed.
In jovial humor he raised the question
whether it was not his duty to take
back with him to Germany a wife who
could provide so admirable a meal as
Mora. Finally Wichuiann, with mock
seriousness, presented himself to Mora
as a suitor for her hand in behalf of a
great German artist. "Moreover, he is
a musician,” he explained, "and you
snrely are fond of musio, for you sing
about the house all day. What say you?”
Mora’s answer was classic. She looked
at Wichmann, then at Brahms from top
to toe, and, with an energetic gesture,
replied, "Sono romana, nata al Ponte
Rotto, dovo sta il tempio di Vesta, non
sposero mai un barbaro. ” ("I am a
Roman, born near the Ponte Rotto,
where the temple of Vesta stands. 1
never will marry a barbarian.”)—San
Francisco Argonaut.
Account* on a Stick.
Two centuries ago it wasn’t as easy a
matter to keep accounts as it is now.
Not only were many people ignorant of
writing and arithmetic, but paper and
account books were scarce and rare. For
this reason merchants, doctors, lawyers
and even the government of Great Brit-
ain kept their accounts by making
notches on willow sticks, very much as
a boy would tally runs in a game of
ball.
Small notches represented pence,
larger ones shillings and still larger
ones pounds sterling. When the account
was all notched out, the stick was split
down its length so that the notches
would show on both pieces. One half
was given to the buyer and one half was
retained by the seller. When the ac-
count was paid, these tally stioks were
joined together and laid away. One can
imagine how much work and trouble
such a system would make in these days
of great business enterprises.—Chicago
Record.
Gesture, and Traits.
Dr. Norman Moore, whose enormous
experience in the post mortem room
gives weight to his words, expressed in
a reoent address the general desire of
pathologists to find some law of correla-
tion between defects of different parts
of tbe body, but ho had abandoned the
hope, for it was only exceptionally that
abnormalities of one organ were associ-
ated with those of others. Movements
of an nnusual character, odd gestures
or antics may certainly be accompanied
by mental qualities of a very high order
—an example of which may be noted in
Dr. Johnson. So, again, large ears are
not necessary signs of mental defect, for
they may be observed in individuals of
great mental capacity, and the repeated
series of movements on which snch
stress has been laid should be regarded
merely as habits.—London Letter in
New York Medical Record.
Another Matter.
Striot devotion to the truth is com
mendable, but it sometimes leads to
curious situations.
A young man who was paying court
to a young lady was thus addressed by
her mother, who was perhaps not the
most agreeable person in the world:
"And so you want me for a mother-
in-law?”
"Ah-ah, it’s n-n-ot exactly that,’
stammered the young man, "but I don’t
see how I can marry your daughter
without your being my mother-in-law.
—Youth's Companion.
A Saver.
First Lady—-There goes young Mrs.
Pedigree. I suppose she bores people to
death telling tbe bright things her lit-
tle boy says.
Second Lady—Oh, no. Fortunately ho
says such dreadful things they can't re-
peat them—Pearson’s Weekly.
