The former bridge was too low, judging from the high water mark of the past, and hence extra cost was necessitated in the placing of another one here, in order that the county might not again suffer thel same land of ioss. The one which will be placed across the river soon will be eight feet higher than the one heretoforejputting it out of danger during the high water times and besides this bridge can be approached at any timehereafter. v V k ' The contjract was made today (Thursday by Chairman Allison, who was given the power for final actipn, in the case.., The " bridge will -be erected, by the King Iron Bridge Co. at a, con tract of ;$1,4 oThis;wU also include an approach of 128 feet on this side of the bridge.: The iron part of the bridge will have two spans and will measure 172.67 feeiu xcTlierej.(FiU . be " one pier under the bridge, and the roadway will be twelve fept wide. Work will be commenced soon and the contract states that it will -be finished by . the first of December. In h regard to the - old bridge Trhich-has, -recently heen taken out of the river, nothing' will "be done at present, . as the county has now assumed a . considerable cost in this line of county needs. The smaller parts will be put away for- safe -keeping and the other will remain there until latter. THE DEATH ANGEL COMES. Xittle John Eddleman Relieved of Pain.
