THE EVANSVILLE BRIDGE.

The completion of the Evansville bridge
does away with an annoyance that travel
ers will not regret-the ferry transfer be-
tween Evansville, Ind, and Henderson.
Ky. There were numerous difficulties to
overcome in bridging the Ohio at that
point, but the bridge is there, and has, over
channel, the longest truss span in the
world, and miles Of trestIe over the low bot
toms on the Indiana side. The result is that
travellers can get aboard Chicago 81 East
ern Illinois train at Chicago and go over an
unbroken line to Nashville, Chattanooga,
Florida, and other southern points. The
train leaves Chicago Mt 3:45 D. IN. and ar
rive ct Nashville at 7:4j a m. next day,
and carries seepng-cars

September, and rose to 81. 30 during Novem-
her and December of the same year, falling
