another narrow escape from a disastrous
confiagration. Fire broke out at about
2 o'clock in the restaurant of Searts &
Cannon, and but for the prompt action
of the fire department would have laid
two solid blocks of the best business

This is the second narrow escape the
town has had in less than a week, and
some of the citizens are becoming sus-
picious.

The Electric Light Company's Artesian well.
The above cut was engraved from a photograph taken few
hours after the well was completed. 1t conveys a good idea ohe
original, and also of the other great well which supplies Yankta
with an abundance of the best water for all purposes.
It is believed that in these wells, which can be easily secured at
comparatively light cost, Yankton has a resource that will build up
here a great Manufacturing centre. Already are there indications d
growth in her Manufacturing interests, and the signs are poptou
for the future.
1t is further believed that the location of Yankton in the mda
of the most fertile and most healthful section of the great Northwest.
must build up here some of the leading Educational Institutions d
and Yankton College is rapidly going to the front. Our pubicschod
are among the very best and are attracting wide spread interest h
the growth of Manufacturing and increase of educational institution
Yankton is bound to make a prosperous and healthful growth.

between both cities. The benefit of this
communication will be almost incalcu-
liable to both cities. A more beautiful
day could not have been desired for the oc-
casion, and the vast crowds that thronged
the streets were enabled to enjoy the oc-
casion with proper appreciation. The
ceremonies We're on an elaborate scale.
The formal opening of the bridge by
Cows, Thsyer of Nebraska and Larrabee
of Iowa, Mayors Broatch and Rohrer and
their wives and Bishop Newman, took
proclaimed its end. Following it came
the parade, which was fully
Eve miles long, brilliant with mill,
tary, uniformed societies and firemen,
and gorgeous with trades display.
Fifteen bands we're IN the procession.
Business is suspended in both cities and
the streets are filed with people. This
evening the final event of the celebration,
the prize drill by the military companies
of Omaha and Council Bluffs, will take
place on Capitol avenue, between Four
teenth and Sixteenth streets, under cleo
trio light.
The bridge Itself is an iron structure,
and, with the approaches, is about seven
eighths of a mile In length, with q
uniform width of thirty-three feet. Com
mencing at the intersection Of Ninth and
Douglas streets, In Omaha, an iron via
duct stretches 1900 feet eastward, clear
ing the Burlington and Union Pacific
tracks and resting on Pier No. / at the
river bank. Here the main span of the
bridge commences and extends 400 feet
across the channel of the river to pier
No. 2, at n height Of sixty feet above the
average water line, or ffty-four feet above
the high water mark, which allows ample
room for the passage of steamers beneath
it. Two spans of ITO feet each, and
four of $50 feet on thu Iowa side,
connect 1t with q trestle work of
500 feet, and that, in turn, leads
to IN earthen embankment of i, ZOO feet,
which forms the Iowa approach to the
main Structure. This crosses a low
ground and necessitates the erection of
two other bridges of about 300 feet in
length, The north one is for the motor
line only and is about twenty feet in
width, while the other is for a highway
and is thirty. three feet wide. Both are
trestle bridges, and rest upon piles.
