Mr. Ketchum,
Henry 0. 0. Ketchum wan born at Fred
orlckton,N.n.,nnd win wlucated ntKliiK'n
coIIoko, In hid native city. Ills first ciikI
neerliiK etiKiiKemcnt was with A. L. Light
in tho construction of tho railroad between
St. John ami Shedlac. In 18(10 ho went to
llrnzll nml worked on tho great Snn Paulo
railway, Ilettirulug to Canada In 18U.1 bo
took part in tliontirvcy of thu Intercolonial,
between Moncton and Truro, and after
ward built tho Now Hrunswlck (,ctIon of
that road. Since then ho Iiiih Ikii ii con
attltlng engineer. Mr. Ketchum was en
gaged In building the Intercolonial rail
way in 187!l, when tho dllllcultleH of con
Btructlng tho Halo Vert canal woro prom
inently lieforo tho public. Sir .Tameallrun
lies wan tho originator of tho ahlp railway
Idea. Cant. Eadu took it up and tirged its
construction al Tohnuntopcc, Moxlco. Hut
with these great englneerH a ohtp railway
won only a drtMim. Mr. Ketchum hiiw that
a ship railway was the only nltcruatlvo to
a cannl nt Chlgnecto, and ha is. tho first
man practically to apply tho ideic
In 1875 ho wrote a series of letters to
the St. John newspapers describing n ship
railway in its application to tho Isthmus.
Tho Idea was warmly Indorsed by certain
parties. Mr. Ketchum prepared and ex-
-irr- jf. .V.
VIKW OK COKKKIl HAM ASD MOt.ES.
hlblted plans of tho proposed railway. Tho
plans were burned in tho great flro of 1877,
and for ten years tho scheme was burled.
It was resurrected by Sir Charles Tuppor.
Mr. Ketchum made mirveys at his own ex
pense, and applied Ui parliament for n char
ter and a subsidy. The application waa re
ferred to Chief Engineer Schrleber, and ho
reported i '
1. The project Is ono qiilto pructlealilo of execu
tion. 2. Tin ship railway aa pruiosvd would ho a
good substitute for tlio canal originally coiitotn
platil. S. Tlio advantage, lu rtioet to cost as coinpanl
with that of a canal would bo tcrentlyln favor of
tlio ship rnllwny, the cost of a half tido canal be
ing calculated by the government engliucrs at
from $5,050,000 to $8,Sir,M9, whereas tho subsidy
asked for by tho eoniiany, namely of SlSO.000 for
twenty-five years, If capitalized at -I er cent.,
would Ih eiual to tho sum of S-J.3l3.3ia only.
Whllo on a visit to tho Canadian prov
inces recently I was desirous of scelnK tho
murine railway works for myself, and so
proceeded to the Hay of Fnmly terminus
at Port LaWrence, which In passing I may
say is famous in Acadian history as tlio
sceno of the 11 ret permanent settlement of
Europeans, made, by the French in tlio
early part of ItKK). There I found several
hundred men lalsiring upon the excava
tions nml preliminary works. Sir Heuja
mln Baker estimates thutstoamer passing
from tho St, Ltwrenco to St.Jotin, N. H
via tho straits of Causo, will savo alwut COO
miles, and from 300 miles upward to Port
laud, Boston, etc., so that in many cases
steamers should bo able to make two trips
where now only ono can lw made. Largo
salltug vessels which are unable to pass
through the straits of Causo without wait
ing for favorable winds, nml which have
inconsequence to pass nrouud Capo Tiro
ton, will savo 700 miles.
Such a saving is of Bpecial imHrtnnco to
vessels with perishable cargoes, such as
vegetables, fresh fish, etc., and It naturally
follows that there will le a saving in ma-'
rino insurance premiums, rates from Hos
ton to jiorU in the Gulf of St. Lawrence
being about double thoso to the Hay of
Fundy, owing to increased risk of uaviga
tjgnjiround Nj)va j Scotia and Capo Hrctou;
a longer ifavigatlon season by some three
weeks, owing to .paving tle nnjsagejof, jio
Straits of Ciiiiro, and less demand for
strength, so that vessels which are adapt
ed only for inland waters will be ablo to
continue their course with safety from tho
St, Iawrenco and even tho western lakes
to St, John, N. B., Portland and Hoston or
vice yerua, thus opening a new channel of
ffude, .
This marine railway company obtained
Incorporation from parliament in 18S3, and
tho same year was granted a subsidy of
1150.000 for twenty-five years in aid of tho
work. Nothing was done until 18S5, when
an order in council was imssed authorizing
entry luto agreement with the company,
subject to the npprqval of parliament, and
such approval Was obtained in March, 1880.
Under its terms tho subsidy was to bo
tl70,000 a year for twenty years, or such
portion of It as would bring the net earn
ings up to 7 per cent, on the authorized
Mmro and bond capital or tlio company.
Should tho earnings exceed 7 per cent,
one-half of such surplus is to bo paid the
government until the repayment of tho
subsidy is made. Surely this was tempt
ing enough to any capitalist 7 per cent,
guaranteed upon an ostensible capital of
15,500,000, though up to this date no one
has been able to learn the exact or even
probable cost of the undertaking.
'The novel part of the scheme, of course,
is sot tho mere lifting out of water and
moving for a short distance of ships, but
the transporting of them fornilles at some

tolerably high speed, say teti miles per

The possibility of Midi feat being success
fully accomplished has lieeii much dis

twactlcal test. Work bus lieen irogrcs

Tho vessels to lw transported will be

to give details of tho features of tho proj

murine railway Is tho first oxiierlment of
tlm kind In the world, yet thu newness
consists rather In the combination of old
and well known methods rather than In
tho invention of any new and Btartllng
principle of mechanism. There are many
much larger plants of tlio kind already I u
successful operation for dry docking pur
poses In America and Europe.
Thu roadbed Itself will consist of two par
allel tracks, 18 feet lictwccu centers, and
laid to the usunl 4 feet 8J inch iriuge, Tho
rail will lw the extra heivy 110 11h. section.
It Is said to bo tho heaviest rail section
ever rolled, being a shade heavier than tho
Sandberg "Gotham'' rail, and for that rea
son has a)ccullar interest. Tho rail has n
very heavy base, vertical sides to hold and
web, and a rather shallow he id In propor
tion to depth. It has 11 very 'short top
radius and a very long comer r.idlus, how
ever, and In that respect some engineering
authorities think It IkiiI. Tho linn of rail
way from dock to dock Is an unbroken
tangent, though this admirable feature
was not secured Iwcauso tho country was a
flat plain over which a straight lino could
lw laid down nnywhero. On tho contrary
thu ground Is quite rolling and broken, nud
nstralght lino was only secured after many
trials and illfllcultleH.
The llrst definite location Hindu over tho
route was for tho old Halo Verto canal
project In 18711, and tho lino was very crook
ed Indeed. Tho first dellnlto location for
the ship railway was much stralghter,
having but one long compound curve In It.
This lino was also somewhat shorter, and
had a Iwttcr profile than the straight Hue

finally adopted. Hut Mr. Ketchum deter
mined that it was bettor to simplify the
first exwrlmcnt of tho kind npd conclliato
the doubters by adopting tho air line,' oven
though nt the expense of a slightly heavier
profile, the principal loss lelng tho heavy
Cut at tho north end of the canal. Tlio
maximum grade Is now O.'J per cent., or
10.5(1 feet per mile, and this occurs on eight
different planes, nil Bhort, which are con
nected to the adjacent levels by vertical
curves.
The tarilT for lifting and hauling vessels
over the railroad, it is tho "(lit, will bo
fifty cents per ton for cargj nd twenty
five cents per ton for hull, so wilt a vessel
of 1,000 tons would pay $750 for transpor
tation. There is ono thing manifest to tho most
casual investigator, uamely, that the pro
motors, engineers, contractors and other
actively engaged in the work are de id in
earnest. They are filled with enthusiasm
and confidence, backed with ample funds,
a combination rare enough but well calcu
lated to insure success. Notwithstanding
thebe facts, however, their earlier hopes
will not be realized of running a ship
over the railway before the close of this
season. The contract dato for completion
of tho road was September, 1800, just two
years after tho beginning of the contract,
and it was fully exacted to comply with
tho requirement, but recently such hopes
have been entirely given up. Hut in spite
of nil tcmiornry setbacks the work will
no doubt lw completed, and that, too, at a
much earlier date than the scoffers ever
believed possible wheji first the energetic
engineer, Mr. II. G, C. Ketchum, lnuuchod
his propositions upon the world.

THE STORY OF LITTLE DICK.
NhuwhiK Him l.lttle It Tnk-d to Mnko a
Child Happy,
"It takes mo llttlo to mako 11 child
happy that it is n pity, in n world full of
Rtmshlno and pleasant things, tlmt thuro
should bo any wistful faces, empty hands
or lonely yonng hearts."
I found thoso words in un old news
paper tho otlior day. Thoy wcro headed
"A Sermon in Fivo Lines" and thoy caino
homo to 1110 with all tho forco of n per
sonal utiDcal.
"It bikes so llttlo to mnko u child
happy." How tunny Limes I hud seen
tho most trivial incident lift my own
llttlo Iwy into tho very ocntney of happl
hush. How often would some simple
gift or n song or u story ohaso the tears
irom niHpycsnnti bring thu bright smiles
to his faco. And yet, I thought with a
pang of rogrot, how many times I had
chilled him needlessly; how many times
I had refused to oxort myself at all for
his Nike. That very night ho had gono
to bed with n heavy heart bocuuso I
would not romp with him. I was too
tired, I said.
I stepped into tho boy's room before I
went to bed that night, and, passing my
hand over his llnxon hair as ho lay asleep,
I resolved that in tho f aturo I would bo
it better fathor to him.
"It ii a pity that there should bo any
wistful faces, empty liands or lonelv
yourg hearts," I thought as I dropped
asleep. I Tumembor tlmt later in tho
night I wiih dreaming of visiting a great
factory and itlsiwctlnj? tho machinery.
"Bo cnrefull" I heard so:no one say, and
then to my horror I tww that I had ni
proached too near to some bolting, ily
beard hal lioon cnught and I was fran
tically trying to oxtrtaito myself when I
awoke.
"Hello, pap'U" said i voice beside my
bed in the darkness.
"Let go of papa's whiskers!" I cried.
"What on earth nro you doing in here,
anyway, Dick?" I continued, sitting up.
"Dick wnnts Dick's animals," was tlio
answer.
"Dick wants to go back to bed," said
I, "and quick, too;" nml I carried him
into his littlo room and placed him on
tho bed.
"Dick wants Dick's u-ti-unlmals."
"You don't want"
"It takes so llttlo to make n child
happy." Tho words camo to my mind
and dispelled all my nnnoyanco nt once.
I lighted tho gas, turned it down quito
low, fished out Noah's ark from under
tho bod and placed it besido tho boy.
"All right," I said cheerfully; "you may
Lllko them, but bo verv nnlnt. nml 1nn'f-
wako your baby brother." Then I kissed
him and went back to my own "bed
again.
I was almost nsleep when I heard n
pattering of foot and n subdued voico
saying:
"Dick want pupa to find tlio elephant."
"I wouldn't mind ubout tho elephant
now," said I.
"Dick wants"
I arose and found tho elephant.
"Now, Dick," I said, "you must keep
quiet and let papa sleep."
"Want papa to mako Prancer stand
up."
Ho was trying to mako a threo legged
liorao stand alono on tho counterpane.
"Will you go to sleep if I make bim
stand up for your" I asked.
"Yes, papa."
"Right away?"
"Yes, papa."
I made Prancer stand erect by bracing
Nonh ngainst his off hind quarter.
"Theio," said I, "now Ho down, Dick,"
"Want papa to muko all the animals
etnnd up?" 1
"Dick." said I, impressively, "it is
night. Tho animals nro asleep and don't
want to stand up. You must Ho down
and let papa go to bed."
"Dick wants to see tho moon."
"Mr. Dickie," I said conxingly, "if
you will stop talking und not wako your
littlo baby brother"
"Dick want3 littlo baby buzzer to get
up and shave."
Not a word was sjioken after that
Quietly, but firmly, I laid him down ami
drew the blanket over him. I turned out
tho gas, and, taking a long step tof clear
tho stray animals, I mado my way
back to my own room. Three minutes
later I know, from his regular breathing,
that Dick was nsleo;, and, if I remem
ber rightly, I didn't caro much nt the
tinio whether ho had it wistful faco and
empty hands and n lonely young heart or
not. Detroit Free Press.
