Chapter 12– Closing Scenes
13. The steam fire-engine, one of the
greatest safeguards of modern times.
14. The Brooklyn Bridge, showing what
strides have been made in engineering skill in
these days. This is probably soon to be
surpassed by a similar and much larger
structure, over the Hudson, connecting New
York with Jersey City.
15. The Washington monument, the highest
solid monument in the world (555 ft., 5½
inches).
16. The bicycle, working a revolution in
suburban personal travel. The manufacturers’
estimate for the output in 1896, in the United
States alone, is three quarters of a million
machines. This, and trolley street-car
propulsion, are rendering horses a drug on the
market.
