laid across South River, near Waynesboro,
and has been accepted by the commission
ers-Capt. c. R. Mason, the noted bridge
builder, and J. G. Slower, ESQ.,, the Coun-

Court. The work was executed by Mr.. j.
W. Austin, at cost of 1925, and was we'll
and conscientiously performed. This Is
the first of this patent that has been con-
structed, and the right was given to erect
it free of cost to the county. Three
wagons can cross it at time, and the
apron to it, over which the water passes,
is 100 feet wide The public, who have
used it, are delighted with it, and such an
experlenced builder as C. e. Mason is of
the opinion that even a food as great as
that OF 1870 cannot tear 1t from its moor

"A BooM.-Maj. Pete Woodward made q
big start last week with his restaurant at.
the American Hotel. All during the fair
he was crowded, the main question being
where could another ledger find place to
lay his head and where hungry man. sit
.ting-room at the table. It doesn't take
long for Woodward to get any thing
like hotel in shape. And if this estab-
lishment of P. II. Woodward Il Co., is not
a first class hotel it is certainly very much
like it. Anything in the way of oysters,
beef steak, mutton chop, or anything else
that is good is ready in 10 MINUTES and
there's where the first class restaurant
comes in. A comfortable room and good
bed is ready on demand, and there's where
the first class hotel comes in. Everything
is nice and neat and handy, and there's
where the Woodward comes IN. The es-
Establishment is keps on the European style
and as to having everything OIL fat in the
housekeeping department it is sufficient
guarantee that Mrs. John H. Woodward
NJ esides there and ladies will receive every
attention and consideration. ga
