Louise Tooker, long a well Health by exercise is one of the sanest of modern fads. It is really a recognition of one of the necessary laws of health from which we, in modern life, are always prone to drift away.

When each man provided for his own individual needs, he had to till the ground, to hunt, to earn his bread literally by "the sweat of his brow, and all this exercise made for health. Now a davs, when there is specializa Ruland, contralto; A. P. Rodenbeck. baritone, and George C.

For this reason there is sound sense in the attempt to supply artificially the exercise which cannot be obtained naturally to toughen the muscles, and expand the chest.

It is never to be forgotten, however, that gymnastics or calisthenics are artificial, and while they will promote health can rarely be counted on to produce it. If the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, or stomach, are "weak," it can hardly be expected that exercise will strengthen them. But once cure diseases which weaken the body, and then exercise will do much to preserve the restored health. One chief obstacle to the. use of physical exercises for the promotion of health is that the people who most need exercise cannot be persuaded to practice it, or persist in it regularly.

They are weak, run down, nervous, arid the very effort which exercise calls for discourages them. Then, also, the physical enervation they feel has its corresponding mental enervation and there is almost a total lack of ambition. It is to people such as these that Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery comes as a means to the re establishment of health. It heals the diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition, purifies and enriches the blood, and enables the building up of a sound, muscular body from the nutrition derived from food perfectly digested and assimilated.

"I feel it my duty to let you a31 know that I have recently advised a young gentleman, who was suffering badly with, kidney and bladder disease, to try your Golden Medical Discovery, writes Frank Startz, M. of' Flatonia, Fayette Texas. "He bought four bottles from our druggist here, and after he had used the fiist bottle he began to improve. Sometimes he was unable to walk ten steps, now lie can ride a horse without any pain in his back, and looks as well and sound as a young boy. His age is only 28.

He has suffered for nearly three years, and several other doctors called the case incurable, but I had confidence in Dr. R. V. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and now I have been offered one hundred dollars several times for my kind advice, but I would not accept it because I want everyooay to know what JJr. fierce '3 famous medicine can do.

"This testimony is absolntety true, and tie reason I havent mentioned the young man's name is because he does not wont to have his name published." The cure of this young man by the use of "Golden Medical Discovery" serves to enforce the proposition made in the beginning of this article, that health by exercise is impossible when certain diseases exist. A man who can "hardly take ten steps "is certainly incapable of active exercise. More common, perhaps, than Mdney disease, and often associated with it, is some disease or disorder of the liver. The following letter exhibits a specimen of the cures of "liver complaint" which have resulted from the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.

I sent you a letter about a year ago," writes Mrs. J. Ellis Hamilton, of Farmington, Marion W. Va. "I stated my case as plainly as I could, and received a letter from you in a few days telling me to use Dr.

Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and Favorite PrescriptionJ a bottle xf each. I used three of each, and feel like a new woman. Don't buffer any pain or misery any more. Before using your medicines I suffered all the time had jaundice, caused from food not digesting properly. I would "have sick headache three and four times in a week, aid jaundice every four or five weeks.

Could not do the work myself. I cornruenced using your medicines as recommended for liver complaint, and I am cured now. I asked our doctor if he' couldn't cure me, and he said he could give me medicine to help me, but the trouble might retunr anytime. I doctored three years. without any relief, only far a short time, and then I was as bad as ever.

Haven't had! sick headache since I took the first bottle of medicine." It is often the case that "weak" heart, torpid liver, kidney trouble," and other diseases have their cause and origin in the diseased stomach. When the stomach is cured by the use of "Discovery," the other diseases are cured with it. When the cause of disease is removed, tie effect stops. If the dealer offers a substitute for Golden Medical Discovery," remember that the sole motive of substitution is to enable him to make the little more profit paid by the sale of less meritorious preparations. i There will be two unusual and important concerts in Brooklyn next week.

On Tuesday evening, the first performance of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony heard here for seventeen years will be given at the Academy oX Music. Od Wednesday evening, at Association Hall, the Choral Art Society will sing Palestine's Short Mass and some rare modern music. On the same night the Caecelia Woman's Chorus will give its closing concert at the Knapp Mansion and there will be minor events of interest. The performance of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony has become so unusual anywhere that the concert of Tuesday night is of interest for outside Brooklyn. The other eight Beethoven symphonies are given by the Boston Symphony and other great orchestras at least often enough so that habitual concert goers are familiar with them.

But the Ninth, requiring the co operation of a chorus in its "Hymn to Joy," is a different matter. This chorus music runs so high that few sopranos or tenors care to cope Otto "Wissner. with it and few conductors have time or enthusiasm to train a special body of singers for the work. That accounts for its not having been heard here since the days when Theodore Thomas had both an orchestra and a chorus in Brooklyn and for the failure of conductors in Manhattan to revive it for a period about as long. Its revival at this time in Brooklyn is due to the fortunate circumstance which sent Otto Wissner and Arthur Claasseu abroad last summer together as delegates, to thank the German Emperor for the prize which he had sent to the Brooklyn Saengerfest.

On their return on the Kaiser AVilhelm der Grosse the two men often discussed music in Brooklyn and music in Germany, and regretted that the Ninth Symphony was not heard here. From that came the decision to give a performance of the work as soon as practicable in Brooklyn. On their return the two men co operated in the proj'ect, Mr. Claassen taking charge of the musical details and Mr. Wissner lending the enterprise the necessary financial support.

The result will be the performance on Tuesday night, which will be an event in the musical annals of New York for years to come. Tbe forces engaged in the symphony will be a large orchestra under Mr. Claassen, the Arion Society and its affiliated women's chorus, and a solo quartet, composed of Miss Louise B. Voigt. soprano; Mrs.

Carl Alvss, contralto; Mr. E. C. Towne. tenor, and Mr.

R. B. Overstreet, bass. The symphony will be preceded by the prelude to "Die Meistersinger," by the orchestra; "Dicb Theure Holle," from "Tannhauser." sung by Miss Voigt, and the Beethoven piano concerto in major, played by Leopold Winkler, who has made a strong impression by his several appearances this winter as a soloist. Brooklyn musical amateurs who have learned how fine the concerts of the Choral Art Society are and what an opportunity they give to hear music not to be found in" other programmes, will not miss its closing concert of the season on Wednesday night.

It will be given for the Brooklyn Institute concert and the fourth in its Spring Festival Series. It will take place at Association Hall on Wednesday evening under the direction of James H. Downs, conductor, assisted by Leo Schultz. the well known 'cellist. The occasion will be the second in which the society has sung under Institute auspices and the third of its third season as a society.

Its present leader, also its organizer, is the organist at St. Augustine's R. C. Church of which the Rev. Dr.

Edward W. McCarty is the rector. While the avowed purpose of the society is the singing of Cappella church music, yet this programme contains much that is of a lighter variety and that is appropriate to the season, a number of the selections being old English madrigals. Herbert S. Sammond will preside at the piano.

In detail the programme will be: Palestl lna "MIsmi Brcvis." Kyrle Eleison Credo. Sanctus and Benedicts. Agnus net. Filli et Flliae. Alleluia: Moliquc Concert Andante.

Tirzah Hamlen SUBWAYS IN MANHATTAN. Instructive Lecture on an Unfamiliar Subject by Two Speakers. "Telephone and Telegraph Subways of the Borough of Manhattan" formed the subject of a lecture before the Department of Engineering, Brooklyn Institute, at 502 Fulton street, last evening. The president of the department. Othnial F.

Nichols, C. presided, and before introducing the speakers of the evening said that the annual meeting of the department had. been held and decided that the same officers should serve next season as this, he being president; Charles C. Martin. C.

the vice president, and Louis Duvinage. C. the secretary. Although previous announcement had been made of but one lecturer, William J. Baldwin, member of the department and consulting engineer for ventilation of various subway companies, yet two men gave the lecture, for Mr.

Baldwin said it would be impossible for him to explain methods of ventilation unless the average layman present first know what a subway is and how constructed, so he had induced Clement J. Walker, the present chief engineer of construction for the Empire City Subway, and connected with the work for twelve years as assistant and chief, to come to Brooklyn and give a detailed description of their construction. The first two pictures thrown upon the screen gave sufficient evidence of the value of the subway system, for the first showed Broadway and John street in 1S00 with a network of overhead and side wires, and the second was a view of the same corner wires had been put underground. Mr. Walker said that ii was early in the SOs that the disgraceful condition of the entangloment of wires overhead in Now York City resulted in a popular clamor being raised for their removal.

There are six of these plants which discharge considerably over one million cubic feet of air per hour into the subways of the streets of Manhattan and incidentally into the streets themselves. The lecturer said that he desired to say that while the plants were not put in for philanthropic purposes, yet, incidentally, they co operate in the general sanitary improvement of the Borough of Manhattan. WEBER NEWELL. One of the prettiest afternoon weddings of the season, of especial interest to the Stuyvesant Heights section, took place on Tuesday evening, at 5 o'clock, at the Embury Memorial M. B.

Church, Decatur street and Lewis avenue, when Miss Hattie Newell was united to Ernest M. Weber. The ceremony was performed by the groom's father, the Rev. Jacob Weber of Holyoke, assisted by the pastor of the church, the Rev. Bertrand M.

Tipple. The church was handsomely decorated and was crowded with the friends of the young couple. The wedding party entered the church to the strains of a wedding march, played by Edwin Sheffield Marsh. The bride was given away by her uncle, Theodore Blachley of East Orange and was preceded to the altar by the ushers, Messrs. Harry X.

Blachley, Sidney P. Lewis, Charles R. Blachley, cousins of the bride, and the Rev. II. C.

INSTITUTE CALENDAR. This is ihe calendar of the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences for to day: Fourth ire ure In the course on "Marine Animal o'e. bv Alfred G. Mayer. Ph.

D. sub.leet. "The Read! ns of Animal Cells to Stimuli; the Simplest To Be Let Next Thursday for Steel Suspended Structure. RIVER SPAN BETWEEN TOWERS Includes All the Beams. Trusses, "Upon Which the Many Roadways Are to Rest.

The New East River Bridge Commissioners will open bids next Thursday afternoon lor the last of tbe big structural contracts required for the completion the work in their charge. This final contract is for the construction of the steel suspended structure, complete except the flooring and track laying, and eight months will be allowed for performance. The cost will, it is estimated, be upward of $600,000 and tbe successful bidder urill be required to give a Dond in the sum of. $300,000 for the faithful performance of the contract. he specifications and plans for the information of bidders for this contract fill a book of considerable size and are so exactly drawn that the contractor will be rigidly bound as to the slightest details.

The Commissioners, as in all former contracts let by them, have placed such restrictions as will most certainly insure the best and most approved work. They have felt that in building a structure of such vast importance to the city and the people who will use it no chances whatever should tie taken as to inferior workmanship or materials. Animated by this feeling they have inserted in their call for bidders, as usual, the fallowing clause, which has bee.n held by the courts to be proper and valid: "As by far the greater part of this work can be executed nly by bridge establishments of the first class, bids will be received only from such parties as have the requisite plant and facilities. The bidders must be, in the opinion of the Commissioners, fully qualified both by experience and in appliances to execute work of this character and importance according to the highest standard bridge work at the present time." It is to be noted that the above clause does not contain, as some in the past have done, provision that prospective bidders should have been in actual business for a specified term and be able to point to similar work satisfactorily performed. Such requirements have been frowned down by the courts.

The quality of the steel and the workman Bhip are properly within the commission's or its engineer's control, and the specifications make very strict provisions relative to both. The requirements as to steel are that all steel shall be made in an open hearth furnace lined with silica; that the stock from which it is made shall consist entirely of pig iron, or of washed pig, or of a combination of both; that washed pig shall not be decarbonized below XVz per cent, during washing, and an analysis for carbon, phosphorus and sulphur shall be made from each cast; and that during the reduction of steel in the open hearth furnace a complete decarbonization will not be allowed. It is further provided that acid open hearth 6Crap resulting from previous heats for this work may be used in subsequent furnace charges in quantities not exceeding 25 per cent, when permitted by the engineer, but such permission may be withdrawn at anytime; that no stock used in the open hearth or in the washing furnace shall contain more than .10 of 1 per cent, of phosphorus or more than .05 of 1 per cent, of sulphur; that the use of iron ore for the reduction of carbon in the furnace charge will be permitted according to usual and good practice, and that the finished steel shall not contain more than the following proportions of the elements named: Phosphorus, .05 of 1 per sulphur. .04 of 1 per manganese, .50 of 1 per silicon, .10 of 1 per copper, .02 of 1 per cent Any material condemned by the engineer must be removed by the contractor without compensation, and he must employ only competent, skillful men to do the work, and whenever the engineer shall inform him in writing that any man on work is, in the engineer's opinion, incompetent, unfaithful, disorderly or in any manner detrimental to the work, such man must be discharged forthwith and not again employed. The complications due to the recent Court of Appeals decisions invalidating part of the.

so called labor law are avoided by the insertion of this clause: "That the contractor will comply with the provisions of chapter 415 of the laws of as amended, known as 'The Labor so far as it is constitutional and applicable to this contract." The length of the main span of the bridge between the towers will be 1,600 feet. This Is consequently the length of the suspension structure to be built under this contract. The width over all is to be 118 feet. On it are to be two carriage ways, four trolley tracks, two elevated railroad tracks, two footwalks and two bicycle paths. The specifications provide for the building under the contract to be let of two continuous stiffening trusses running parallel and sixty seven feet apart from the Brooklyn to the Manhattan tower.

These trusses will be supported by rocker arms on the main towers and on the main floor beams, and at their cantilever ends will support the river ends of tbe connecting spans. The main floor beams will be supported from the suspender bolts, which will be placed in position by the contractor for the cables. The erection of these floor beams, the specifications provide, must proceed simultaneously from both ends of the main span and from as many intermediate points as may be necessary to secure the uniform loading of the cables. When the middle sections of the main floor beams with the intermediate stringers and the bottom chord of the stiffening trusses have been placed in position, the material for the remainder of the Work must be distributed over the entire floor thus formed, and after this has been done and the preliminary adjustment of the suspender bolts has been made the stiffening trusses and the remainder of the work may be erected, including the stringers for the elevated railway and the foot, walks and cycle paths with the requisite supports therefor. A heavy lattice raiiing will be built on the outer ends of the main floor beams and around the main towers, and a lighter lattice railing will be built along the outside of the cycle paths over the entire length of the suspended structure and the end spans, from anchorage to anchorage.

Pipe railings will also be built along the inside of the foot walks and along the inside of the roadway over the entire length of the suspended structure and the end spans, from anchorage to anchorage. APPELLATE COURT DECISIONS. Sanford Murray. appellant and respondf nt. s.

and years of litigation with the owners of the wires that it was finally decided to a system of subways or conduits where all these wires could be placed. With this Mr. Baldwin took up the thread of the narrative and told of the process of ventilation. Since it has been adopted there are some accidents, but not in the telegraph, telephone, fire and police systems. Ventilation is maintained at a considerable cost to the subway company.

"Primarily." said the lecturer, "the air admitted was to produce ventilation and lessen the chance of injury by explosion, but it has accomplished a great deal more than was at first anticipated as it prolongs Ihe life of the plant and as it has been the means of drying out almost the entire system of underground manholes and conduits to such a degree that the slimy condition of Ihe pipes and walls of the manholes that existed before the installation of systematic ventilation, have entirely disappeared even in low parts of the city that are practically down to ihe tide level." After various systems of ventilation had been tried it was found that nothing but a condition of pressure within the manholes and conduits could accomplish the work. The difficulty is with the gas in the the ground coming from leaky service pipes. These are made of common gas pipe. In some ground they will last perhaps twenty years, in others where there is free lime or debris from building, they rust very rapidly. "The conditions." said Mr.

Baldwin, "previous to the installation of the blowing plant, were such that if a crow bar was driven into the ground at any point (in Broadway and the larger of the city) a lighted match applied to the hole when tne matcn was witnarawn. would produce a gas flame that in many cases would burn continuously; the gas supply from leakage was so constant." Tbe first blowing plant was established in the Telephone Exchange. 10 Cortlandt street. It consists of a horizontal engine and a Root, blower with a sixteen inch discharge pipe running Into the street. In the street ii branches into two pipes, one running east and one west, each twelve inches it.
