A PONTOON BRIDGE.
Some People Think 1t Good Structure
for Augusta.

for Augusta.
From the Augtsstd (Gd) Chronicle
Some people think a pontoon bridge
would be just the thing for Augusta in the
present emergency.
When Mr.. Corbett's suggestion was read
in the Chronicle the chcapness and expedi-
tiousness with which such a structure could
be built impressed themselves upon all. 1t
was suggested then only as temporary
expedient. II could be built so much sooner
than an ordinary bridge, and would be so
much superior to a ferry. But since the
matter has been bruited, the question is
asked: Why not build a pontoon bridge to
| serve as "a permanently
The last issue of Hdrper's Weekly con-
tains cut and description of the pontoon
bridge across the Missouri river, connecting
Nebraska City with East Nebraska City
The bridge is now over !, 200 feet long and
contains large draw, which requires one
man to operate 1t. The beauty or the pom
toon bridge is that it rises and falls with
the water In the river, and always floats
above the high tide When the Missouri
river freezes and bridges are In danger Of
being crushed by the ice, the pontoon bridge
is simply taken out of the river and
anchored on the bank until danger is past
The same course could be pursued in Au-
gusta in the case of q dangerous rise. In the
opinion of some. people pontoon bridge
would be the very thing needed.

A FORGER WITH NERVE.
Capture of Man who Tried to Work
Second Game.
From the Cincinnati 7Ymes-Star.

From the Cincinnati Tines-S Star.
When s. G. r ce, the box factory man,
stood at tho counter in the Fourth National
bank last Saturday and drew his check for
sum Of money, another man stood over
him and watched him as he signed his name
to the check.
He also looked at the check intently.
After Rice had got bis money and walked
out the stranger made out a check similar
to the one he had seen Mr. Rice make out
and signed the name Of G. Rice to it in ex-
actly the same style of writing that gentle
man employed. He then stepped up to
Paying Teller J. NJ. Anderson and pre-
sented the forged check, and received $3.50
Mr.. Anderson at first objected to paying
the money, but the stranger claimed that
he had just got the check from Rice, aud
that Rice bad gone too far up the street to
be called back Without suspecting that
anything was wrong, Anderson gave him
the IN ney. This morning the fellow again
called and presented a check for $40,
signed by the same party In the mean
time Mr.. Anderson had made an investiga-
ton, and found that the check was forged.
1t was, therefore, with a great deal of
satisfaction that he saw the fellow come into
the bank, in the hope of working the same
game once more. Mr.. Andel son called
Officer Stenger in, and ordered the arrest
Of the Stranger At the police station he
gave his name as l.. II. German. The bold
ness of the fellow i'll trying to work the
same racket twice in the same place is what
stagsers tue police authorities.

A VETERAN OF THE THRoTTLs d.
A Sketch of Henry C. Raworth, the
Oldest Living Engineer.

The Oldest living locomotive engineer is
now enjoying ripe old age in Augusta,
Ga.
a hale and genial old gentleman, well
past the allotted three score and
ten years, is enjoying the evening
of an honorable and useful life among rela-
tives and friends. This gentleman is Henry
G. Raworth, and he enjoys the proud dis
tinction OF having pulled the lever on the
first locomotive ever used on the South
Carolina railroad. He adds to this the re-
markable record of more than half CEN
fury of continuous service on the same road.
He has held the throttle on every style of
locomotive, from the crudest engine to the
finest mogul, and has witnessed tIe evolu-
ton from twelve miles an hour, over a
rickety track, to sixty miles over steel rails
and a rock ballasted roadbed. He has kept
pace with the improved machines, and
when, at the age of IS, he stepped from the
engineers cab for the last time, it was from
failing eyesight, and not because of any
lack of ability to discharge the duties OF the
position.
During twenty-eight years of Mr.. Ra-
worth's career he had but one fireman.
negro-of whose faithful services he speaks
in terms of unstinted praise. When first
employed and for many years afterwards
this man was slave, his owner having con-
tracted his services TO the railway company
for an average consideration of a dollar
day. When he bee lme a free man he still
continued to work as fireman, receiving
the same wages paid others, and contin-
uing at his post until four years ago,
when he died. During his long service
on the South Carolina road (he
was never employed on any other Mr..
Raworth only had one accident, which oc-
Cured in 1852, and was the result of the
washing away of a culvert. He claims to
have killed less stock than did any other
engineer on the road. When the BEST
Friend" which was the first locomotive
built in this country, was received at Char
lesion, Mr.. Rawortn was an apprentice in
the shops Of the s nth Carolina road, and
he heloed 10 put 1t up for service. He
attributes his good health, which has
always been perfect, TO his habits OF life,
not a drop of Intoxicating liquor ever hay
ING passed his lips.

The Best Time to Buy valuables.

This is the dull season of the year. This
information is not exclusive OF from inspi-
ration. Trade is pretty well as far as it
goes-but it doesn't go far. The purchasing
power of dollar now is something surpris-
ing, simply because thereare more dollars
than trade. In word, we are now inclined
to give a very large dollars worth for 100
cents just to keep things moving. Within
tue past few months we have added to our
stock III various ways, new ideas, new con-
ceits new tricks and quips in jewelry, and
so on. We've got to keep up, you know,
with the strides of inventive and artistic
excellence. Our stock is worth looking
over, and, as intimated, we a0iH sell verp
close to move some of it. This is q good
time to renew houschold articles Solid
Silver table ware, superb plated ware,
ornamental goods. For personal use or
adornment we offer line par excellence c.
Ladies' fne Gold, Silver and Diamond
Jewelry, Ladies' Watches, Chains and
Charms, Gents Watches and Jeweiry, etc.
All of these articles can be bought cheaper
now than when trade gets brisker. Some
body will get married next fall--buy the
presents you intend TO give noic. They
will keep, and you will save money

The peer girl, who was only IS years old,
was stripped of her clothing, tied to stake,
and n slow fire built under her. For two
hours she fingered in awful agony, and
while her death screams filed the air, the
braves danced about the fire and the medi-
cire men performed incantations. When
morning came nothing but the whitened
bones Of the girl and the black embers of
the fire remained about the stake. The dis
ease from which 30 many of the Mojave
braves have died is believed to be malig-
nant typhoid fever. The details of this
strange story were brought to Los Angeles
by ranchers who had been attracted to the
camp of the Indians by the noises which at
tended the terrible death of the girl.

THE OPERA GLASS SCHEME
You Drop 10 Cents in the Slot and
Get o Pair OF Good Classes.
From the Ne,o Yorl: World.

From the Neto Yorl; World
Mechanical ingenuity has made 1t possible
to rent opera glasses at the theater ON the
drop Of nickel in tho slot automatic prin-
ciple. A company has been duly incorpo-
rated under the name of the Manhattan
Opera Glass Supply Company. with capt.
tai stock OF 100000. Tie president is Conrad
Jordan, and associated with him are Ed Gil
more, Eugene Tompkins, Judge Fullerton
and Alex. Comstock. The scheme is a novel
one. II is proposed to place on the back of
every alternate chair in the theaters
small box, plush lined about inches
square, with beveled glass door. In this
box will rest the opera glasses. A small
slot just large enough to admit l0-cent
piece will be punctured at TIE top, and
when the theater-goer wants to get pair
of glasses he can drop In his l0-cent piece,
the glass door will open and there are his
opera glasses.
The incorporators have already ordered
l 400 glasses from Lamartine, the famous
French maker, and the consignment will be
here in few days. The opera glasses will
not be chained to the seat and the company
will trust to the honesty of the lessee to re-
turn them. The glasses will be of first-class
make as far as the lenses GO, but the rest
will be Of bright scarlet and have the name
VI Jue UuedUef III suuReH leLUSTS on Un6 SIDE.
| They will be tried first at the
Academy of Music some time this
month, and then, as soon as the glasses
can be made, they will be put into
the Holiday Street Theater, Baltimore;
Whites Theater, Detroit; Columbia Theater
Chicago, and the Broadway Theater here.
The theaters all over the country are wait
ing to find out about the scheme. 1t is
claimed that If 25 per cent of the glasses
are stolen and only so per cent. of the re-
mainder are used every night the company
will be able to declare handsome dividend
II the scheme becomes universal, it will kill
the opera-glass trade, for it is cheaper to
pay 10 cents for the use of a pair for an
evening than to pay $40 for a pair and lose
them in a street car going homs.

STORY OF THE FINDING.

Mrs. C. l. N. L. Stafford, noe Miss
Charlton, sister to the late Dr. Charlton,
was at the falls at the time that the body
was found about dark at tho lower end OF
the pool, just beneath the lodge Of rock
above Tempesta. The gentlemen present
not being able to get it out that night
bound it to piece Of plank with their sus-
penders and pieces OF cord, rope, etc, max
ing it fast to pole or sapling. That night
the waters rose, caused by rains, the body
fioated up and the friction of the bindings
against the rocks cut them loose and the
body floated over Tempesta falls, SO
feet, and then down the river. A search
was made, and about the fourth or fifth day
it was discovered near the next fall. 1t was
hard task to get it up from the chasm, nearly
800 feet high, and almo perpendicular.
Mr. Alley, then quite lad, made the hook
with which they brought the body out. The
ages of tho,e who are buried here seem to
run among the seventies and eighties.
