way but I pose he was not accountable for all he It costs more to keep a woman than three dogs and a shotgun But she pays you back interest given you a houseful of children to keep you awake all night and smear molasses candy over your Sunday coat Besides a wife is a very convenient ar tide to have around the house She is handy to swear at whenever you cut yourself with a razor and don't feel like blaming yourself Woman is the superior being ir Massachusetts There are about more of her sex than males in that state This accounts for the terrified expression of the single man who has emigrated from the east Woman is not created perfect She has her as false complexion and so on But she is a great deal better than her neighbor and she knows it Eve was a woman She must have been a model wife too for it cost Adam nothing to keep her in clothes Still I think she was happy She couldn't go to sewing circles air her information about everybody she knew nor excite envy of other ladies by wearing her winter net to church Neither could she hang over the back fence and talk with her near neighbor All these blessed privileges were de- nied her Poor Eve I she's dead THE shooting season has commenced in Ireland and landlords stem o be the favorite game A couple of smart young men were on the train from Chicago last evening and tackled Judge McAllister on tics They were scon glad to change the subject A dispatch from New Mexico states chat the notorious John H Morgan the guerrilla reported killed during the war is actually alive and practising ing in southern New Mexico Now that liis whereabouts are known it will be in order for the republican tration to send for him give him n good fat Mosby should not have a monopoly of the good things BRIDGES I filver rely the Brooklyn i The immense height of the foi tho support of the Forth bridge created some and no wonder when it is taken into account that completed they will be the building of 0117 kind in the world Science will therefore wait with gone anxiety their completion The height of the towers on the island of Inch Game midway between Sooth and North will be 060 feet to support a bridge 150 foet above water but the rew for great altitude is that in the generality of suspension bridges towen are built on the land on either Bide of the span and were this the case in the Forth bridge towers of 150 feet lew height or 110 feet would be sufficient but this is impossible from the great length of the bridge It seems that by natural laws there a limit to everything on this that is that man can go to a certain length end no further as for instance in telescopes nothing larger than Lord having perfected for many years In reference to buildings a cor- respondent the other day quoted Bt stalk 430 foet high St Paul's Cathedral is about 460 foet to top of the dome St Peter's at Home 460 feet the pyramids of Egypt at least the great pyramid is 180 feet at present in its imperfect state but by calculation would reach 500 feet in height when finished When it is remembered that this structure only reaches this height with a base of about 26 acres it will be a very difficult matter to raise the Forth bridge towers to 560 feet with a small base These towers are to be formed ol solid masonry to a certain height and then by groups of iron pillars girded together in layers upward The Niagara suspension bridge has one large span of 821 feet the railway track above the water is 245 feet or 95 foet higher than the Forth bridge the towers are only 60 feet high being built on either side of the shore The bridge has two large spans of 344 feet each and the towers are 45 feet high The and Cincinnati a span of feet ita height above low water ia 103 feet and the towers 230 feet high The bridge to give the best proportion to the Forth bridge which is feet for two spans 150 high and towers of 660 feet Those we have mentioned are ished and in working order and Te may also the East Biver bridge connecting New York to Brooklyn The towers of this bridge are also built upon the land and are 278 feet high The single span is feet long 01 only feet less than the Forth bridge while the total length is feet There is therefore no doubt that the Forth bridge when completed will be engineering triumph The Evening Wisconsin SM'S in its bombastic style that election lius settled it swindling in anv form not bo encouraged bv the voice of this election has settled any one thing more than another it is that swindling suall bo encouraged hy the well the this mighty pious Republican party Cabinet under any ad- ministration ever made such an out- right partisan stumping lour as Uie one from which Cabinet and Hayes himself have returned to ton THE republicans of Madison carried a labeled Hancock in their procession one evening last week A brave union soldier is not exempt from the contemptible insults of a beardless republican rabble the of whom never smelt gnu powder except on the Fourth of July General E S of Wisconsin has the laugh of his would-be tor attorney asked a dis- continuance of the declaring that they were com- for a political purpose and was one of the dirtiest tricks ol the GEN ARTHUR gave a great part of the strength to the ticket in this State He had been a satisfactory and lar collector of the port and everybody knew him to be a gentleman N Y Sun Yet in spite of his popularity and the satisfaction he had given this same and Sherman to get out in order that the office might bu honestly and efficiently administered The Sun seems to be in a hurry to curry favor with the winners k is erroneously said some papers that if Ger Sherman should go on die retired list Sheridan would succeed him and Gen Hancock would succeed Under the provisions of the existing laws the office of General of the Army ceases gether upon being vacated by the ent and the same is true of the office of The charge that the national cratic ticket was bartered for Republican votes for local candidates seems to be substantiated by the vote for men in the Sixth District of New York Hancock ran 512 votes behind the ed Democratic vole for Assemblymen Independent Democrats assert that the trade was made in the interest of the Tammany candidate THE rumor of Gen Sherman's nation is an old story revamped mans rarely die and never resign ingly The General loves power and plumage He has told many people many times over that he intended to retire but he never got nearer ment with seventy-five per cent of his actual pay than this cheap mode of in print It is now certain that all of
