A larfre amount of bridge building Is
buiny carried on at present by Burke
Brothers, the well-known local contrac
tors and builders, and over six hundred
men, the majority of whom are Scran
lonlans, are in their employ, busily en
wiKCd In the construction of railroad
bridges for the Delaware, Lackawanna
nnd Western, New York, Ontario and
Western and Central Hallroad of Now
Jersey companies.
A bridge nt Ualdwinsvlllo, N. V., Is
now belntr Riven the Mulshing touches.
It was built for the Iaiickuwanna, nnd
fxtends across the Seneca river. It con
sists of five piers over which is a bridge
for a single track railroad.
The Willow Point bridge, located u
.short distance above Ulnghruntoit, N.
V., is another splendid pieco of work
recontly completed. Klght piers wore
.sunk, about 680 yards of masonry being
used In the construction of each. Over
the piers, tho company Itself Is build
ing an iron bridge. Tho, structure ex
tunds over tho Susquehanna river nnd
is one of the finest railroad bridges in
New York state. )urkn Brothers start
ed work on it in Stay, and accom
plished excellent results in very milrle
time. It is six hundred feet in length.
Three weeks ugo work mi a bridge
was started, for the New York, Ontario
and Western railroad, at Liberty Falls,
N. Y. An old woodon bridge is at the
point at present, but this is to bo torn
down as soon as tho now strueturo Is
I'omploted. Work on the foundations is
going along briskly and In some eases
tho excavating has gono down seven
teen or eighteen feet. The Iron work
on this bridge will bo eighty feet high.
An order was received last week by
tho snmo firm for tho construction nt
iv new bridge for tho Central Itallnmd
of Now Jersey at Welssport, bflow
Mnueh Chunk. Two or tluvij piers will
bo built and about one thousand yards
of masonry. In all, usad.
Among the other places wheio tho

Ja., wheio considerable excavating and
grading is being donu for tho Jersey
Central, and at South Orange, Jlilbuni
und jUorrlstown, N, J whero tho work
of reducing grades and straightening
out lines is being conducted for tho

New Schedule's Workings.
The new schedule of tho Central Rall
raod of New Jersey went Into effect
Hunday, and so far everything has
moved along easily and with the pre
cision of clockwork. Tho changes in
volved affected only three trains.
These are No. i, New York-Philadelphia
bound, which will now leave
The manufacturers of Royal
Baking Powder have always
declined to produce a cheap
baking powder at the sacrifice
of quality.
The Royal is made from
pure grape cream of tartar, and
is the embodiment of all the
excellence possible to be attained
in the highest class baking
powder.
Royal Baking Powder costs
only a fair price, and is cheaper
at its price than any similar
article.
Samples of mixtures made in imitation of bafcinjj
powders, but containing alum, are frequently dis
tributed from door to door, or given away in
grocery stores. Such mixtures are dangerous
to use in food, and in many cities their sale is
prohibited by law. Alum is a corrosive poison, and
all physicians condemn baking powders containing it.

of at 4 o'clock, and No. 1, which for
merly arrived at 11.20 o'clock, will now
make its dally appearance promptly at
noon.
Orders for Trainmen.
Lackawanna enginemen have been
notified that whereas some enginemen
are careless about not having the head
lights on their engines lighted when
running after sunset or when obscured
by fog or other cause, they will now
be held responsible for failure to com
ply with this rule.
Yardmasters and conductors of the
Lackawanna arc asked to see to it that
the doors of all empty box cars are
kept closed while in transit. They are
also notified that some trainmen are
getting careless about sealing the cars
and are liandling in their trains mer
chandise cais not properly sealed.
These are loft at tho end of the run In
this condition, and a bulletin order now
announces that the conductors are to
strictly see to it that all cars which
permit of sealing are properly sealed.
Damage by the Storm.
Yesterday's heavy rain storm did not
affect tralllc on any of the railroad
divisions in these regions to any ox
tent, but in New York state consider
able havoc was wrought. Between
Owogo and Ithaca, on the Ithaca
branch of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western railroad, the tracks were
partially submerged by the rain.
The land is low in that locality and
trouble has been experienced there on
previous occasions as thu result of a
heavy downfall.
