Michigan railroad managers are
somewhat exercised over "A decision by
an Iowa court that il is not forgery for
anyone Ia sign anothers name TO "a
mileage ticket. In the case in point "a
man named Beck had purchased II
mileage ticket, and while travelling on
IL, the book and overcoat were stolen.
The thief sold the book TO scalper,
who, i'm turn, sold il To man who pre-
scented it for fare signing the name of
the original holder of the book. The
conductor of the train took up the book
and compelled the passenger To pay
fare. The decision of the court was
that the signing of mans name to
"A railway mileage book by another
party is not forgery, and the plea SO
presented was overruled. The decision
is victory for ticket scalpers and il is
believed the case will be appealed. In
the meantime the scalpers contemplate
pushing their advantage and large
number of suits against railroads for
taking up books under similar circum-
stances are threatened. This should
be cut out and pasted in every travel
ing mans hat.
The Kalamazoo Telegraph says that
the report circulated in the state that

Those who are posted say that although
several days of warm weather were
experienced, the peach buds did not
mature and expand sufficiently to be
seriously damaged by the sudden
change In the temperature. The sec
ton of country near Saugatuck has
had favorable winds, and the damp of
the lake has not penetrated the buds
A gentleman who has recently return
ed from that section reports that the
buds are in very good condition. He
says that the buds are so plentiful that
even though one half of them should
be injured there would yet be sufficient
to yield large crop.

will be on masonry, arched viaducts and
entertainments Of earth. Suspension ca
bles Of steel will pass over two granite
towers. each about 210 feet high. pierced
with arched openings for roadways, and
be anchored into masses of masonrv'o

grades on the central span will be 3 ieet
per 100; on the shore spans, 3.5 feet per
100, and on the approacheJ, feet per
100 The extreme width of the bridge
will be about "a feet, with roadway for
vehicles "a feet wide in the clear, and
two sidewalks for pedestrians s feet
each in width.
Lateral vibration is to be prevented
by system of ties extending out from
the sides of the towers. and vertical vi
bration by means of the four trusses
The live load that such "a bridge could
sustain would be 20 pounds TO the square
foot. The clear height Of 105 feet above
water level will allow the largest four
masted schooners TO reach Georgetown
by lowering their topmasts. 1t is at
rare intervals that a vessel of this class
appears in this harbor, and the great
majority of vessels that sail these waters
can pass under the bridge without in
convenience. The span of 1,100 feet
practically leaves the full width of the
river unobstructed both TO navigation
and to the free flow of the waters of the
Potomac. -Harpers Weekly.

Eight years ago George Virgins, son
of w. B. Virgins, who is "A prominent
citizen of Graham county, went from
Robbinsville to the west. For two years
he wrote regularly to his folks. In his
last letter he wrote that he was going to
Montana. This was the last they ever
heard Of him until recently.
Not long ago r. l.. Davis, of Robbins
vile, went TO Montana and settled there.
He now writes back that he believes he
has found the long lost man. About the
time George Virgins wrote his last let
ter home young man arrived in Mon
tana and went to work in saw mill.
His employer remembers that he gave
the name of Virgins This was all that
was learned concerning him.
Soon after he commenced work in the
mill he was struck on the side of the
head by flying timber which knocked
him senseless. For a long time his life
was despaired of, but he finally recov-
cred. Memory of all previous life was
gone. If he had just been born into the
world he could not have been more of a
child than he was when he recovered
from that terrible blow. All that he
now knows he has had to learn anew
