WORKING UNDERWATER.
Tti, Pressure Mon Have to Bear In Digging
Tunnels.
Laboring on the firm earth, with “nil
out of doors” to breathe, prcspirlng,
end, mayhap, grumbling at one's hard
luck, ft person seldom, if ever, stops to
(hink that men work day after day
deep down In the water or the mud,
with none but ortiticlal.light to guide
their movements, and only the air that
is pumped in to breathe.
People who work in tho open air
would have only to work for a short
time in a diver’s suit, a caisson or un
sirlock, getting a taste of what it is
like and how it feels, to be cured for
ever of grumbling at their lot and to
thank their lucky stars that it has been
ordained that they work on top of tlie
earth. The work of a diver, his sensa
tions while under water and his exper
iences have often been written about,
but those of the airlock and caisson
worker have not. While ho does not
fce tho danger of funding pipes and
lines, as does the diver, be stays down
longer, gels warmer, and his great
danger lies in thd'attijrnrttion of blood
nail paralysis, resulting from tlie
changes of the atmosphere.
While a man working on the surface
of the earth bears np ah atmospheric
pressure of fifteen pounds to the inch,
men in the locks bear n pressure of
from fifteen to fifty pounds of com
pressed air, according to the depth.
The heaviest prossnroMvef worked un
der was liorno by five divers on the
Swedish coast -psixly-flv* pounds. Four

While, as 4 general thing, ("he diver
stands not nearly t liljl amount of pres
sure arfdoaßlbnostnys down mpft- limn
two hours, the ihen in the Hudson
rlvg- tunnel.stood a inessure of from
forty-live to forty-six ami a half pounds
amfvvorkcd in four-hour shifts. Some
men stayed down twenty hours at a
stretch, but did not work nil the time,
and Superintendent Haskins once
stayed down twenty-four hours. Tito
sensations experienced nee jiisulUir.
When a man first steps In there is a
tingling in the onr, and n pnfn in tho
head, and when he talks it Is Apparent
ly through tlie nose. This is caused
by the pressure, and tlie remedy Is to i
hold the nose, close Hie iriouih and
blow against the cars, This relieves
the pain find stop* the sensation.
Another peculiar tiling about the ac
tion of the pressure in that u man may
linvc liquor enough aboard When out
aide to just make him feel jolly, but
when he steps into the lock he is as
drunk as a loon. The danger lies in
reining’ out of the pressure into the
open air. It is then that a man is apt
to suffer from stagnation of the blood
ami paralysis, caused by the change of
atmosphere, besides this a man may
hr attacked in the head or stomach
with severe pains. Throe out of five
oases where the head and stomach arc
attacked result fatally.
Another severe malady resulting
from the change is what is called the
•‘bonds.’* This is the air getting in
between the flesh and the bone. It is
extremely painful, and so severe that a
(mart of whisky administered iu half
an hour would not intoxicate the pa
tient. The stagnation and paralysis
arc the worst dangers, and do the work
quickly. Many men have been keeled
over by these causes, and not a few die.
old timers at the business sometimes
get caught. Mr. llapicr himself was
twice attacked. The remedy for this
paralysis is a quick return to the air
lock. The effect of the pressure varies
on animals, as is shown by the mules
used in the Hudson river tunnel. Some
of lliesc animals are kept at work
down below for a year, and on being
brought up are worth more than when
they were taken down. Others that
bud only been in the works four months
hud to bo hilled.
'lhe men, as u general tiling, do not
remnlti a great many years at the busi
ness, and a man should never work at
it after he Is forty years of age. Cut
bag a hole and building a tunnel
through water is an extremely diflleult
bung, and by many was thought to bo
ioj possible. Still it was done in the
case of the Hudson riverdmnnol. and
'he method, us told by Mr. itapier. is
v, ‘ r .V interesting. The work on the
tunnel had progressed until a body of
"’•ter was struck. How to tunnel
through this hole of water was a puz
zling Cjuestkm, It was done in this
"'•}’: A so-called balloon was con
structed by making a netting of wire
fope and covering this netting with
• anvas. The interior of the balloon
was then filled with blue clay and salt
“•y. When filled the balloon, thirty
Jeet in diameter, weighed one him
'lred and forty tons. The hole of water
"as then located, and. with the aid of
a huge, steam derrick, the balloon was
dropped into the hole. Then several
** ow loads of dirt were dumped down
°n to the lialloou, and the whole thing
was left to settle.
At the end of ten days the work of
rutting through the balloon was he
gun. This was a very difficult Job. An

After long experience In domestic up
holstery, denim, in its rich assortment
of colors, is found to lie superior to all
other materials. It combines artistic
beauty with astonishing durability,
and is heartily recommended to the
amateur cabinet-maker.
The,tops of tho boxes should bo cov
ered first and tufted. This may lie ac
complished by spreading curled hair on
the wood nnd tacking the material over
It and at regular distances apart catch
n button to form a tuft. This Is done
by boring two small holes through the
wood side hy side, anil, having thread
ed the eye of the button with a bit of
twine, pass the siring through the
holes and tie the lightly together
at the uuilor side of the lid.
The material Is to bo tacked all
around to tho outer edge of the tops
with ordinary carpet faults driven close
together.
Next upholster tho back, placfog
some curled buir behind tho material
nnd give it n cushioned appearance and
In turn drape tho sides of the boxes.
To do It nicely, shir several yards of
the material on a cord and then tack
the string fast all around the upper
edges of the I loxeii.
Around tho top odge of each box nnd
to hide tho joint where the covering
meets tip) draping material, fasten a
piece of wldo'gimp with large oval*
headed upholsterer's tacks driven an
even distance apart. This will lend a
good finish to complete achnrmlng and
useful piece of furniture.
The very attractive hanging cabinet
shown here is also made of a couple of
packing cases.

Two shelves should be arranged In

ABOUT BLACK SILK.
flow to nuttiißulah > (load Artlrl* from
Interior unutn.
Tliero urn really very few women
who can distinguish lictween a good
black Milt and an Inferior one, anil a
few hints given by an export and re*
ported in the Delineator will doubtless
bo acceptable to many shoppers:
In the first place never l>o beguiled
Into buying cheap silk. Very often a
pretext of its cheapness suggests a
genuine bargain, but the wise woman,
unless site knows of good reason for the
reduction, will choose some other ma
terial if she cannot afford to purchase
silk at an adequate price. Costliness
is of course no guarantee of real value,
to llio shopper Is advised to purchase
an eighth of a yard of an admired
fabric and test ii, at leisure when she
readies home. This may seem like a
waste to the over-economical mind, bat
It will prove a good Investment If It
prevents a bod bargain in the end.
In testing u piece of silk first try to
tear it. both lengthwise and crosswise.
If it gives way readily In either direc
tion yon may lie sure either that the
dye has destroyed the fillers or that the
t hread Is made up of what Is known as
“waste silk.’’ Pure silk properly dyed
Is the strongest textile known, but
nearly all the cheaper dyes, and par
ticularly the dark colors and black,arc
made with such n bosls that they oat
into and weaken the fabric.
The firmness of the weave may lie
proved by scraping diagonally across
the silk with the thumb nail. If the
material 1 strong rind pure, any
amount of manipulation will not make
the threads slip, and if the nail makes
a space as wide ns itsown thickness be
tween the threads the silk is certainly
of inferior quality. The next, test is ap
plied by raveling a bit of the silk and
carefully examining both warp and
woof. Often a pure silk warp has a
heavily loaded woof, and in other
cases, especially In satin weaves, the
woof has an inferior backing, the sur
face being of good silk. Pure silk has
a good luster and is very soft, but, if
the gloss is artificial the fabric will be
hard and brittle. When a pure silk has
been dyed improperly it looks very
much like cotton, but It is somewhat
softer.
Another excellent test consists In
pulling out the threads both ways and
trying their strength. Catch them with
both hands an inch apart, give a quick
Jerk and note the force needed U break
them. If they part easily the si I iris
not good. Tear the silk along th
lines from which the threads have been
taken, and If there arc puckers along
the tear they may bo regarded as Indi
cating a strong texture. A method of
testing that is considered conclusive 1
to burn u fragment of the silk and also
some of the ravellngs. If the silk Is
pure and well dyed It will take fire
slowly, oven when held directly In the
(lame, and the tiro will go out almost
as soon as the silk Is withdrawn, leav
ing ashes that arc nearly Jet hlnelf.
Weighted and Improperly dyed silk Is
highly inflammable. It quickly takes
fire, and the flro it difficult to extin
guish, smoldering after the sUk- is re
moved from the flame and leaving
ashes that keep the shape of the cloth
and are of u light yellowish rod tint.
Cotton in the fabric cun lie readily de
tected by the odor of the smoke, liv
ery woman should remember that th
requisite qualities of good silk are
strength, smoothness, luster, richness
and lightness, no matter how thick the
material.

vantage, or one's taste and Ingenuity

A WATERMELON THEORY

A solitary individual ivu the only
occupant of a Itult Line ear the other
morning, which was tinkling north
ward niong Tenth avenue. Being deep
ly engrossed in the morning paper, lie
had hardly notieed an aged darky, car
rying a watermelon, who boarded the
ear os it passed Washington market.
As the solitary individual, who had u
genial smile, started in on the foreign
nows, he had a dim recollection of the
son of ham having placed the melon
aolicltiously on the floor of the ear be
tween ids feet, parting hia coat-tails,
and heaving a sigh ns he sal down.
The sigh was the inost prominent of
three, for it spoke of an Inward con
tentment few in this world are privil
eged to enjoy. Home minutes passed
in silence. Then the presence of
another was brought to the genial
man’s attention by his carefully lifting
the melon to the seal beside him. Be
fore the ear bad traveled a block the
location was again changed, and the
melon surreptitiously placed In the
darky’s lap. Ail these munoeuvers were
accompanied by many a stealthy look.
His next move was to pull out the plug,
but alas, somebody bud removed all
the eatable portion. Bidding the rind

tiic fruit which had mitigated the sor

clearing of hIA parched throat, head
dressed the genial man behind his pa

“Hay. boss, you habn’t n long-bladed
knife, has you?”
’I he genial man produced a large
pocket knife, and with a wink at the
conductor, who had become an inter
ested spectator of tile little comedy,
handed it to his dusky friend opposite.
He eagerly grasped it, and with a skill
born of long practice, cut out a wedge
which certainly was more than his
share if there were live in Ids family,
l-’or about two minutes he was hurled
to the ears in the luscious fruit. His
mouth was sealed, hot his eyes s|ioke
a gratitude that Words could not have
expressed. After the section had boon
finished, the rind replaced and the
knife wiped off, lie said:
, “Boss, you’ve done me a powerful

man laughingly Inquired.
“Wat’s hit. sab. Dis fruit exercises s

Now it doesn’t take a
very wise woman to decide
whether this was an honest
grocer. And a woman wise
enough for that, would be
likely to insist upon having nothing but Pearline. There is
nothing "as good as” or ‘‘the same as” Pearline, the origi
