na~s nonr and sIopssc to 10.

About three years ago the Alexander
and Pulaski Plank road company opened
,,, rond between Cairo and Mound City,
and built substantial bridge, on the line
across Cache river, the whole costingabout
eleven thousand dollars.
The construction of the embankmch' Oh
the Cairo and Vinccnnes railroad mas ere,
ated n necessity not only for the rcmo'ai
of the bridge, but for partial relocation
of the road.
From report prepared by the President
Of the Alexander and Pnlaski RANK Road
COMPANY. for the consideration of the
county court of Alexander county, VIC are
permittcd to make the following extract
II attach hereto a report and profile of
a survey of the proposed location of. the
new road, as far as Cache river, and Of the
new bridge across that stream, and an es-
innate ofthc cost Of preparing the road to
Cache river for use at all times when any
other of our country roads can be used,
and Of the removal of the bridge. This cs-
innate includes the cost Of an embankment
and small bridge across Goose pond.
Upon an examination Of the estimate it
will be observed that the whole cohtcn-
plated cost of the preparation of the road
to Cache river and of the removal
of the bridge, will be about
four thousand dollars. TO prepare the
roads beyond Cache river so as to connec,
with the present road to Mound City and
other roads in Pulaski county and the
northern portions of Alexander county
would require an additional expenditure
Of, say, $500 for the Mound City road and
! 500 for the other roads making an en-
tire amount Of about $4,000 which II l.
desirable and necessary TO cxpcnd ut one,
TO give proper communication between
Mound City and the country beyont
Cache river and our CITY,"
"A similar application has been made I,
the court of Pulaski county, and ",
hope to have liberal share Of the expens
incurred in the removal Of the bridge, an,
the preparation of tho road to Noun,
City, appropriated by that county
1t will scarcely be necessary to press tn
Importance Of opening this thoroughfar
upon the attention Of either the people o
the proper authorities Of either county
The necessity for tb, communication
understood by everybody and must
provided, in some manner, cost what
may.

ACCIDENT AT THE TACOMA Mills
We learn from persons just arrived by the

it was not boiler which exploded at tho

that the steam.drun,, underneath the Lol-

We were unable to ascertain his name.
