JJoMon Transcript. Miss Levenia Victoria Smith, a voting ladv residing on Iving street, has , Just completed a panel for a door. Shu took the panel out of the door and painted a long-legirod crane standing upon it. During the progress of the 1 work the draught coming through the hole where the panel should have been : caused her three sisters to catch the pneumonia. Une is already deau, and the others hope to be. On putting the panel back she discovered that it was painted on the wrong side.

The thoui sands of business men and women who i work all day in its stores and offices 1 must he able to reach their homes in j Harlem, Brooklyn, or Jersey City in , thirty minutes from Broadway." To j meet tho wunt of the upper part of , Now York the elevated roads were eon- : sfructcd. They are the perfection of railway traveling for tho passenger : smooth, free front noise and dust, besides their wonderful rapidity of transit. . Within a year it is expected tho East Kivor bridge will he ojien to the passage of tho" great, army of people who spend their days in New York and their nights in Brooklyn. The latter city has been fitly called " a lodging-house for New York." Four hundred men are at work on tho approaches to this bridge. They are massive granite arches, supporting the road-bed, rising gradually, till it crosses at a dizzy height the riverbelow; the bridge is so high that most slnjis may pass under it ; with top-gallant masts standing. It j would not do that the finest harbor in the world should ho obstructed ly a I bridge at the water level. Governor i Cornell has signed a bill appropriating two million live numireu mniisaim noil:tr.s to finish the most wonderful suspension bridge tho world has yet soon. The third means of communication now being pushed rapidly forward is a tunnel for trains under the Hudson River to Jersey City. There tiro two tunnels for that jart which lies under tho river's bed, and they unite in one at each end. This double tunnel is lined with iron plates, and faced with brick three feet thick. Tho clay excavated from thu tunnel is used to make the bricks to line it, of which more than two thousand are required for each running foot of wall. Tho interior will ho painted whito, and lighted with cas. Phe estimated expense of this work is ten million of dollars. The work goes on day ami night; three gangs of men being onijiloyed eight hours each, thus accomplishing three days work every twenty-four hours. All thu work is done by the electric light, and thus one great invention helps another. The total length of the work will be two and a half miles, including the approaches, though only about a mile of this distance is under 11hj bud of the river. When it Ss done four hundred trains jer day can pass safely, delivering jasengera and freight in the very heart of New York. Youth's Companion,
