JFHE XAO ASTER DAXLY INTBIiMGENCER SATURDAY, NOYEIMBEll 3, 1S88." 3'. RAISING THE ATLAS. DIVERS WILL BRING TO THE SURFACE THE STEAMER RECENTLY SUNK. Berne Acfoent of tha Methods Employed In Raising Ship from the Bettem of the Water Tim Diving Dells of Earlier Days. Passengers en tlie New Jersey ferries entering New Yerk, down town, pass the sunken Btcatncr Atlas, lying near the feet of Barclay street In the North river. Beats entering the Barclay street slip are obliged te go around the sunken vessel, THK SUNKEN ATLAS. whose masts nloncare visible, suggest! ve of casualty by water, and bringing home te the traveler a sudden appreciation of what n thin shell lies between liim und destruction. The Atlas it will be remembered was run ini j by a ferryboat net long age and sunk in a few minutes. She is n con ttnnt menace te vessels where she lies, and it is desirable that she be speedily raised. This will net require the long time taken te ralse the steamer Wells City, sunk in the North river about a year age, and some two miles nbove where the Atlas lies, for the former was leaded with tin and it was necessary te roinevo her cargo befere removing the vessel. As the Atlas is laden wltli ceffee anj fruits, the case is quite diflcrcnt. The method usual in raising sunken vessels, is te first get chains under her keel fere and nft, and indeed at as many .points as necessary. Floats nre then ar ranged en either sule te which the ends of the chains are attached. These floats nre sunken by being filled with water, the chains being made taut when they nre at the lowest. The water is then pumped out, and n3 the pumping gees en, the floats rlse bringing the vessel te the surface with them. "When she is raised te a sufllcient height te float readily she is towed away from the place of disaster te a point where 6he can be worked upon mera readily. DIVER AT WOItK. This is the method that was used in the case of the Wells Qjty, and doubtless it will be repeated in the case of the Atlas. The first and most difficult matter is the J)lacing of the chains. Fer this purpese livers are employed, who go down and work the chains under the vessel. The diver's occupation is certainly a hazard ous ene. IIe wears a curious sort of nrmer en his 6ubmarine trips, and the nir he breathes is pumped down te him. Of course, any failure of the nir current mean3 death, unless the diver is removed immediately. 'x'liere is it strong repe tied around his waist, which he holds with ene hand while descending, and by jerking en this he may readily give a signal. In the helmet are thick glass windows, through which he may leek. The helmet is of copper, the suit of rub ber. When the water is clear the diver may readily see objects horizontally, though overhead there is a glare. In the North river the water is be muddy that it is net prebable the diver can see se far. The electric light is new used, which makes things very light near by, nud the diver can beu much further with it, but it makes the surrounding darkucss darker. A diver in a river flowing by a large .city sees some singular eights. The lot let lot tem of tlie North river is covered with mud and slime into which the diver sinks bemctimes te his knees, or his waibt, or even ever his head. There are telegraph and telephene cables, many of them broken; pipes for conducting oil, lest anchors nnu parts of vessels and beats. Tlie electric light usually attracts fish which examine- tlie diver in evident curiosity. Divers in the Nertli river have reported stumbling en tlie holes which were made some four years age by the caving in of the tunnel which engineers attempted te iiSJ35-W TI1E DIVINO BELL. construct. It will lx) rememliered that this tunnel was intended te carry trains from New Jersey under the Hudsen river te New Yerk. One day tlie reef caved in and all the men at work except ' few near the entrance, were lest. Bince then the tunnel has broken at ether Iieints, for the divers report a number of ieIcs. Divers say that the most disagreeable fcature of their work is stumbling across a dead Ixxly. Tliese Ixxlies usually float n few days after death, but there nre ceses where they lccome entangled, or, as in the case of suicides, ure sometimes leaded with weights. It is diurnal enough tn lu lit tlm lmttnm nf lllllllllv river. without finding one's 6elf face te face with the swollen body of a fellow being. Divers have a superstition that it is bad luck te touch these bodies, and they never de se if they can avoid it. Tlie diving bell was the first contriv ance usk1 te esplore places covered by water. Any ene can see the working of a diving bell by taking a glass tumbler inverted nnd pressing it down in a bowl of water. It will be seen that the water does net enter the tumbler, for the rea son tliat two substances cannot be in the pame place at the same time. Se in the diving bell the water does net enter tha vessel, though it presses upon the nir contained in the bell, compressing it c.rwi.flief lmf rnmtrt fill tlie ltell. If the vessel were let down te a depth of thirty-three feet this compression would be be great as te half fill the bell. With in the bell, at a sufficient distance above where the water comes, supports are pi v"i nn wlitnh fin n'rer s" nia-inst Hi 7' -3a. Bella are Mill lised when Ihey can Bele! down directly ever a place where work is te be done, but for moving about et prying into dark corners the armor li nlone effective, and has largely sup planted the bell. In order te keen as much water as pos pes pos eibleoutof the diving bell compressed air la used. This afreets seme people very disagreeably. Usually there is a pain en the drum of tlie car, which comes from the prossure without the cat being greater than that within, and then net being; a perfect equilibrium. There lias been no special improve ment in diving apparatus for nnmubet of years. Tlie diving bell was known in the time of Aristotle, and diving anuet lias new been in use many years. The ! methods of raising vessels have doubtless been Improved upon considerably during the past half century. A VERY HIGH, CHIMNEY. Only One Structure In Atncrlra of Create! Altitude. Tlie Washington monument is the only structure en this continent which is tallet than the great chimney lately built at Kearney, N. J., te serve the twenty big boilers of n thread manufacturing com pany. It is a king among chimneys, at there are but thrce taller ones in the world, and nene of theso wcre built fei boiler furnaces, but for carrying off the products of chemical processes, nnd dis tributing the gases thus produced. The Kearney clilmuey eesides being a triumph of the builder's art as regards stability and height, is a very handsome shaft. It is circular, and rises with a perfectly uniform batter from the bottom te the neck below the cap. Its diemctc at the base is 8 feet 0 inches, and at the neck is 14 feet. This gives a batter of 1 feet 8 inches, or 8.83 Inches for every ten feet. Its total height is 833 feet. Its in tcrnal diameter is 11 feet, giving ene circular flue. At the summit It expaudi into a well proportioned capital sur mounted by a cast iron cepmg. The latter weighs six tens, andis composed of thirty-two sections. Tlie foundation en which this great mass of brick-3 rests is 40 feet square mid 5 feet deep, and weighs 1,000,000 pounds. As it starts from tlie base the chimney is double. The outer wall is 0 feet 2 inches iu thickness, and inside of this is a second wall 20 inches thick and spaced off about 20 inches from main wall, nnd, of ceurse, concentric with it. Frem the interior surfuce of tlie main wall elcht buttresses are carried, ncarlv touch. ing this inner or main flue wall, in order te Keep it in line should it sag. The interior wall, starting with the thickness described, is gradually re duced until n height of about ninety feet is reached, when it is diminished te 8 inuhes. At 105 feet it ceases, THE IliaUEST CHIMNEY IN AMEIUCA. and the rest of the chimney is without lining; no fire bricks ure used in tlie lining. Tlie chimney receives two horizontal flues, in which it is proposed te place feed water heaters for the boilers. About ene thousand pipes will be included in them. It is believed that much mero of the waste heat can thus be economized than is usual, as, owing te the great height of the chimney a comparatively slight heat in the products of combustion will generate ample draught. The ad vantage in an engineering sense of se large a chimney will be derived from this factor of economy. A remnrkuble fcature of this piece of work is that it was built in 1G0 days of nine hours each. In the erection of the thrce taller chimneys much mero time was spent. Tewnscnd's chimneys nt Glasgow, Scotland, is 454 feet high, and was mero than three years building; Tennant & Ce.'s chimney, Glasgow, Scotland, is 485 feet 0 inches high, and was built in a year, as was Dobsen & Barlew's chimney nt Bolten, England, which is 807 feet 0 inches high. The total weight of the new chimney is 10,001,809 iKHinds; the total numberef bricks in the stack is 1,097,231, and its cost was 30,000. Ne way te ascend the shaft, after the clovater used in its construction was taken nway, has been provided. If it should be necessary te de se, a balloon will be sent up the central llue mid al lowed te leso its gas and descend on'the outside, providing means for drawing up a line of sufllcient size for a man te climb. It is estimated that during a high wind tlie chimucy will sway about si inches. Russia's New rtulluny Reute. The Siberian Pacific railroad has net yet been commenced, and already u new Siberian railway is projected. It will be called after the river Obi. Its connection with the bed of that stream and with a suitable pert te the west of Walgntz island will open a deuble new read te Si beria by land and by water. It Is pro posed te 'circumvent" tlie mouth of tlie river Obi, the cnliisula of Yalmal, and the Kara sea, which are dillicultef access, owing te the masses of drifting Ice. The new reute will only be 400 versts long, taking a northwesterly direction from the mouth of the river Obi te the Walgatz sea, in a bay of which a harbor is te be built. The slte chosen for this harbor Is sheltered from the wind by the I'ae-Chel mountains. The country being lovel and well stud ded with forests, the construction of the llue will offer llttle difficulty. The cntlre cost, including the harbor, is estimated at 20,000,000 rubles. Under existing con ditions the transport of merchandise te Barnaul, via Tlumen, Venn and St. Pe tersburg te Londen takes three months, whereas by the new line two mouths will be saved. Western Siberia produces annually 80,000,000 Ilussian poeds of wheat. The epcnlDg of the Obi line will materially increase commercial Inter course with the west, and be the means of supplying the European market with wheat at a considerably lower price than that produced at home.

Something- About the Man Who Has Managed te Put Ufa Feet In It Se Nicely Ills Recerd and Ills Interesting Family of Daughter. Lord Sackvillc, erstwhile the Hen. Sir Lionel S. Sackville West, K. C. M. O., envoy extraordinary nnd minister pleni potentiary of Great Britain te the United States, is certainly a wiser man than he was a month nge if he is capabloef learning. Net euly has he violated a long established rule of diplomatic usage that an accredited envoy te any country should net interfere in politics oft that country but he has, with rare stupidity, walked open eyed into a trap that would net have caught n fourth rate American politician. A letter Is received by him purporting te come from nn Englishman naturalized in America, nnd asking hew that Angle-American ought te vete nt this election, and the minister answers it in n letter of fecble platitudes that can only lw understood by reference te the letter of inquiry. LORD SACKVILLE. FLOEA SACKVILLE. The Scripture tells us that the net Is spread in vain in tlie bight of tiny bird, but this is an exception. And Lord Sack vileo is a very "old bird" indeed, for ha has been in tlie diplomatic and ether pub lic service for forty-eno years, mid much of (hat (ime a man of much social prom inence. His heuse nt Washington wai the social capitol of the national capital; his annual balls te the diplomatic corps, officials of the state department nnd ether dignitaries were the great events of tha season, and his three lovely daugh ters were admired and courted by all the young diplomats. The inarringe last June of his daughter, Miss Flera, te Monsieur Gabriel Salansen, of the French legation, was .thought te be nn affair of international interest, mid many columns of description were tele graphed from Paris. Ills heuse iu Wash ington was the standard for nil that is elegant, and though the British govern, ruent allowed 1dm $50,000 n year for en tertaining, his expenses went far, beyond that. It may safely Xxs said that the belles and beaux of Washington will mourn his departure) for go he must as much as the politicians will, presum ably, rejoice. Lord Sackville is n son of the fifth' Earl of Wnrr, nud wan born July 10, 1827. He was bred te diplomacy and ether public business, and at the age of 20 was made nttnche te the British legatien'at Lisben. In 1853 he was made llrtt nttaclie at Berlin; in 1839 secretary of legation at Turin, then the capital of Victer Em manuel, who subsequently united Italy in ene kingdom. He wns seen promoted te cliarge d'affaires, nnd served in that capacity till 1803, when he was trans ferred te Mndrid; in 1807 he was nro nre nro metcd te be secretary of embassy at Ber lin, nnd finally reached the top rank ns minister plenipotentiary at Puris In 1003 and 1809. After n brief interval iu a lower jjest he again served ns minister at Paris in 1871 nnd 1872. In September of the latter year he was made minister te the Aigentine Bcpubllc; wns transferred te Spain in 1878 nud te the United States in 1881. One would naturally suppese that such nn cxjicricuce would have dcvelejied his bump of caution till It stuck out like n deer knob, especially his work in Paris in tlie days of intrigue in 1871; and new, te be tukcu in by nn unknown American, is certainly humiliating te him nnd exas pcrnting te his government. The name of Sir Lionel's father N better known in America as Delaware, the "De la" mean ing "of the," se it is given nbove in the old peerage style ns "Warr." IIe Ls a descendant of that Sir Themas West who was governor general of Virginia early in the Seventeenth century, and from whom the Delaware river is named. Early in life he married the Lady Elizabeth, daughter of the Duke of Dorset, of u family ennobled by William the Con queror, and as the ladic3 of both families have long been noted for their beauty, it is net n matter of burprise that the thrce daughters of Minister West are umeng the noted lieauties of the nge. Lady Elizabeth Sackville West was quite noted in her time, betli for beauty and social VICTORIA. AMELIA. grace. As she died befere he came te America, his eldebt daughter, Victeria, has nlwnys been the presiding lady of the legation. As all the daughters were bem nnd reared in France, French is their mother tongue; se they learned English by the same lingual gymnastics und mental wrestle wiin orthographical unemalies nnd conjugational intricacies ns bother ether feicigucrs. Tlie second daughter, iu fact, learned the language in tne united Mates aim spcaus it with a piquant French accent. JUbS Victeria, still unmarried and owning te twenty four years, is a lady of muny accom plishments and nprime favorite in Wash ington. Miss Flera, new Mine. Salansen, married in Pnris en the 10th of June last, Is tall and classical looking, with a line Grecian profile. Miss Amalie, the youngest, is mero pctite and u demure beauty. Tlie British minister's heuse at Wash ington is owned by the British govern ment, nnd luxuriously furnished through out; it is nmeng tlie largest residences in the city, has as much interior Hpace and mero social conveniences than tlie presi dential mansion. Fer many years tlie British legation at Washington has been noted for the lauty pf ijs ladies, and nmeng the wives of attaches are several noted beauties. Tlie BritMi nobility is ee connected by marriage that it is no surprise te learn that Minister West's bister was the (sec ond wife of the late Marquis of Salis bury, and therefore stepmother te the present Lord Salisbury, premier of Eng land, and ex-ofllcie chief of the depart ment of foreign affairs. Since the death of the marquis bhe has married the earl of Derby. It is net te uncommon a thing te dismiss foreign ministers as might le Mippnscd, from the fact that it lias net happened for many years in this coun try. Washington requested the recnll of the Trench Genet; Tuyler ixrcrapto ixrcrapte rily ordered Peussln, also I-rcnch, te withdraw from Washington, nnd Grant refused recognition te t'utacazy, the Itus siaii minister, wliole government re called him.

He net only carried en a farm and practical law and delved into politics, but he was president of a bank, president of a mnnufneturing company, (he proprietor of the hand somest lielel in western Maryland, nnd the leading spirit in most of the publie enterprises in Hagcrstewn. Then, tee, he was the richest man in his county, his wealth being about $1,000,000. He was 08 years old. He was born in Mary laud. In 1843 he ,wns admitted te (he bar. Three years nfterward he wns elected te the Maryland legislature. In 1818 he was au elector en the Cass presi dential ticket. In 1840, although almost boyish in npjwarance, he defeated a noted general for congress, and he was twice re-elected.

"IIe used te slug, net only in ills shop, imt also, in a lower veire, when he was walkiug along the street.

He answered te the uame of Bep Wah, "but I always called him Hep for short. 60METUIN0 OV A JOE1C11. "By degrees, and when I had satisfied Hep that I had no Intention of patroniz ing his rival across the street, for whom he entertained a profound yet pitying contempt, he told me seme of his history. IIe had been ten years In America, and about six years In Brooklyn. I asked him ene day If his parents were alive. He re plied that he believed his mother was, nnd added, 'Old mau dead leug time.' Thru he laughed quite merrily, ns if the eldor Hep's uccease wns a geed dcnl of a loke.

Happening ene afternoon te notlce a 'Ged Bless Our Heme' motto of the regulation pattern fastened te the wall alongslde of a Chlnese almanac. I asked him If he was a Christian. IIe shook his head very emphatically, aud then laughed se that I thought he would fall off his high steel. When I said that it seemed queer te find n Christian motto In a heathen place of business, he winked at me with great deliberation and re marked, Jerking his thumb iu the direc tion of the card, 'Catch trade; evurythlug gees.' Certainly there were no files ou Hep, and his knowlcdge of current slang was both profound anil aptly applied. By aud by he get mera mottoes, and lu a short time the shop inside looked llke a mission school. "One very cold afternoon last winter he was about half frozeu when he called ateny room with the week's washing. As he laid down the bundle he made seme remark about the temperature which sounded vastly llke an expression used by unrcgeiicrate Christians aud proceeded te rub his hands vigorously. Noticing that he looked affectionately upon a glass of het whisky and water which I had just brewed for myself, I asked him If he would have one. Hep 'didn't mind if he did,' and by the manner in which he get away with the steaming beverage I was led te bellore that It was net by any means his first attempt. After this I get Inte the way of offering him a heru when ever he happened te find me lu, and I can't recollect that he ever refused. Oue of his weekly visits was made the day be fere last Christmas.

At the reference te mar rlage he stuck his thumb among my ribs and chuckled after the fashion of Asiatics. When he arose te go I saw plainly that In addition te his large bag of clothes he would have te carry home with him a very well developed Jag. IIe waved Ids hat at ma as he left the room, aud I heard him trying te whlstle as he went down the first night of stairs. At the head of the secend flight he lest his balance and fell headlong, striking the street deer as If he had been shot out of a catapult. He was net hurt, at least he did net appear te be, for, picking himself and his bag up, he let hlmself out, aud from the window I next saw him tacking rather unsteadily down the street In the direction et his home. He made no reference te his mishap when he called again, nor did I Fay anything, but Hep get no mere whisky. "Early lu the new year he called oue morning befere I was up, carrying with him a bettle of rice brandy, '8am tin,' as It is called iu China, and seme Chinese sandwiches.

There Is, howevor, a dLfference between their respective qualities of beauty. I have elsewhere sufficiently portrayed the ewqbt and coy beauty of our American girls net te tell them the wliole truth en tliLs occasion.

Our American "rose "reso "rese buds," en the contrary, have n very trying cllmate te contend with; they take tee llttle oxcrclse and tee much iced water. The result is that English girls are able te bring a mero rotcate bloom te their checks, te walk longer distances and te stand much mero fatlgue; they are, In fact, mero robust ami have hotter devel oped figures; and although there are, no doubt, lu New Yerk, or In any ether large city of the United States, a dozen women as perfectly beautiful in form und face as any chiseled by the greatest artists, our American girls are lu the main less bright iu color, mero delicate aud nalethau would othcrwlse tte the case if they mero stead fastly resorted te the invigorating means of health, outdoor oxcrcise, long since adopted by thelr English sisters, and te which, doubtless, the latter ewo their ex quisite forms and also the fact that they remain youthful lu appearance much longer than our compatriots; lu fact, an English woman of -10 leeks younger than en American woman of 80 years; of course I de uet new refcr te wewen of the work' Jpg clm.Frank, Lejc, t IIU ifltpsH An Important Announcement' AbOIlt RtZ weekM AMV.
