despairing tones:
Mr.. Birdsong, has my poor

sympathetic jailCr.
Mrs. Gray said nothing more,
and then SIT down on the front
steps of the Jail and cried bitterly
for a few moments. Suddenly she
took knife out of her pocket aud
made two fearful rqkes across her
breast cutting her dress into shreds,
and was in the act of plunging the
knife into her bosom, when Jailor
Bircsong sprang forward and
snatched the knife from her before
serious injury was done. 1t was

Among other matters for which money
is needed is the decoration of the capitol
and grounds for the reception of the con-

convicts have been doing good work in the
way ofimproving the grounds, but there is
lack of teams to do that which cannot be
done by men. A group of gentlemen dis

A Pontoon Bridge for Bismarck.

That there is a probability of the con-
struction of a pontoon bridge over the
Missouri river at this point, those who
conversed with Mr.. H. G. Rorapaugh, of
Deadwood, duling his recent visit in the
city are convinced. Mr.. Rorapaugh looked
over the ground carefully and informed
the TRIBUNE that if the city would give
proper encouragement he knew that the
bridge would be constructed. If the en-
terprise should take satisfactory shape
under his preseut plans the bridge would
be for teams and foot passengers, and
would be constructed on the most modern
plan. He believes that the bridge should
be similar to the one at Sioux City, which
cost $4,000, and is proving of greater ben
eft to the people than any improvement
made in or about the city. 1t is as solid
and safe as paved street, with walks on
either side of the wagon road, and at
night is well lighted by lamps.
A bridge of this character between Bis
marck and Mandan would be of great
benefit to both places, especially to the
capital city. The people of both sides of
the river would be accommodated beyond
comprehension, and the first great step in
fixing Bismarck as the commercial center
of the entire Missouri river valley would
be taken. Mr.. Rorapaugh and his associ-
ates are sanguine on the subject, md will
proceed with the work provided even
small encouragement is given by the city.
A pontoon bridge would be worth thou
sands yearly, would be as good as new
railroad, and the authorities and citizens
generally should take immediate steps to-
ward encouraging its construction.
Mr.. Rorapaugh or one of his associates
will visit Bismarck in the near future, to
see what can be done.
