MassiIlon Bridge Works.

We clip the following from the In
dianapolis Daily Sentinel of Nov. 22d:
Mr.. Joseph Davenport, President Of
the Massillon Iron Bridge Works, at
Massillon, Ohio, accompanied by his SON.
in-law, Mr.. Charles A. Rotart, has been
here several days, looking after the in
terests of the company. This company,
which is represented here by Mr.. 81. B.
Wellman, is, as our readers are aware,
constructing the new iron bridge across
the White river, at the end of Washing
ton street, the work being under the su-
pervision of Mr.. L. S. Hardy. Yester-
day, in the presence of the County Com
missioners and others, and under direc-
ton of Mr.. George Merritt, test was
made of the capacity of the sidewalk
beams used in this bridge. These beams
are constructed of iron, three and half
by half an inch, and made of the
principal of Davenport's Straight How
Truss. The test was made in Chandler
& Taylor's Foundry. Two beams were
placed in position such as they will oc-
cupy when put in the bridge, that is, ex-
tending seven feet clear, beyond the
chords of the bridge. Pig iron was
then piled upon the unsupported ends of
the beams to the enormous weight of
IL, ,08 pounds. Mr.. Hardy then noun
ted upon his weight, and standing upon
the outer edge, calling for more iron to
be placed upon the beams. But the
committee was satisfied with this test of
their capacity, and agreeably disap-
pointed in their estimate of the strength
of the How Truss. If the Straight How
Truss, of such small dimensions, will
carry such enormous weight, the capaci-
ty of the main structure would seem to
be almost without limit.

Thanksgiring Sumner.

On Tuesday the Both ult. twenty o
our citizens made arrangements for {
grand supper to be given at the Butlel
House, on Thanksgiving eve. They Sc.
lected two of their number, Mr.. JOSEPH
Butler and Mr.. Stewart Nelson, te
choose sides and ego for" game. 1t be-
ing agreed by the respective parties thai
the squad bringing in the least amount
of game would bear the expense of in
cidentals, uide cigars, &C., during the
day. They started, some early in the
morning, and others near noon, and the
way they "went for" game was "cau-
tion." Upon returning in the evening
it was found that Nelson's party were
the victors-it producing III counts,
consisting mostly of rabbits and pheas-
ants. All the members cf the Millers-
burg Silver Cornet Band and quite a
number of other citizens of the place
were invited to attend, and partake of
the feast. Supper was served at
precisely o'clock. After each and
every one had done justice to themselves
the Sports were highly entertained
by the delightful music of the Band.
The affair was undoubtedly a very
pleasant one, and all present seemed to
enjoy themselves exceedingly well. The
manner in which the affair was conduc-
ted from beginning to end surely re-
flected great credit upon Mr.. and Mrs.
Butler the hospitable host and hostess,
of the Butler House.

Wednesday afternoon, the popular
book-keeper at Camp & Cookies Sewer
Pipe Works,-Mr. Geo. C. Germain,- =
passed through the shops of the COM
pany and with an air of exceeding
"glumness" notified every employe to
report in person at the office, precisely
at 6, p. NJ. Visions of a discharge and
general shutting down of the works
fitted through the brains of the work
men, and their countenaRces assumed
an expression not the most cheerful to
be imagined. Promptly at the hour
named they appeared in a body at the
office, prepared to receive the unwel-
come "notice to quit" with ill-concealed
chagrin, when 10! each man was pre-
sented with document which upon in
spection was found to be not the dread
ed "walking paper" but an order on one

tracing any praise and honor from
any of the roads running west from
Chicago to Omaha, we believe the

and owing to its close connections
with the P, F. W. & C. R. R., at
Chicago, and Union Pacific, at Oma-
ha, it naturally makes it the most
desirable road, saying nothing of the

At1O.3O P. NJ. we left Chicago for
Davenport, on the c., r. 1. & P. R.
R., and arrived there the next morn
ing, Thanksgiving and found the
city very quiet; all, or nearly all the
stores being closed. Rock Island
being right across the river, and the
Government buildings, &c, on the
Island, makes this point a very at
tractive one. 1t is well worth, the
while to stop and spend a day or two
to visit the different places of inter
est. The Burtis Hotel and r. r.
Eating House is kept in excellent
style by J. j. Burtis, who located at
that point some twenty years ago,
and some fourteen years since built
a large brick building which he is
now occupying.
In our next, we will speak of our
trip to Omaha, scenes, incidents, etc.
along the line, and such items at
Rock Island as we may deem of
sufficient interest to our readers.

answer is, simply because it does every

THANKSGIVING.

Our town seemed as quiet as Sunday
on Thanksgiving. The business houses
were all closed. The day being pleas
ant, the attendance at church was good
Union services were held in the Presby-
terian church. The exercises were OPEN
ed by the choir giving stirring Thanks
giving anthem. Rev. W. j. Sharpe OF
the Disciple church, read the 9th Psalm
and led in prayer, after which Rev. G.
A. Hughes pastor of the Methodist
church, preached a fine sermon from the
text-Psalm 67 Is 6-"Let the people
praise thee o God; let all the people
praise thee. Then shall the earth yield
her increase; and God, even our own
God, shall bless u.s.. His discourse was
very good, setting forth the principal
blessings for whichwe should be thank
full both as nation and as individuals
At the close of the sermon Rev. W. NJ
Gibson of the United Presbyterian
church led in prayer. A collection was
then taken up for the benefit of the suf-
ferers in the Northwest. How much
was obtained we did not learn. A COM
mittee was, also appointed from each
congregation in town, to make arrang-
ment for still further aid by canvassing
the town and vicinity. We hope they
will meet with ready response as win
ter is now upon them and they in need.
