TURKEYS FOR employees.

-
The windmill factory of Mr.. A. j. Cor
coran, at Jersey avenue and Thirteenth
sire It, was the scene of a merry gathering
Sat rday night. The assembly room was
brilliantly Illuminated and decorated with
nays and bunting. A string orchestra en-
livened the occasion by the rendition OF
many popular airs. Mr.. Corcoran had called
his employees together, first to permit them
to enjoy a pleasant afternoon and evenings
entertainment, and to conclude the whole BY
presenting to each married employee a twenty
pound turkey and to some of the single men
a box of cigars each, and others an envelope
containing a small sum of money. No one
was forgotten. In accepting the gifts of
employer the men did not fail to express
themselves as being truly grateful to Mr..
Corcoran, not only because of his gift, but to
the manner in which he has treated them
during the present hard times. The work
ing force has not been reduced nor has a
mans wages been changed. There were
two hundred and eighty pounds of turkey
distributed, and the largest fowl of all was
sent to the sick i'll st. Francis Hospital.
During the evening addresses were made
by A. J. Corcoran, Fl. A. Corcoran, L. H.
Du Bots, foreman of the pattern makers de
partment; Charles Boni, foreman of the

BRIDGE OVER THE PENNsY CUT.
Will Have a Single Span of237 Feet
Largest in the State.

One of the greatest features of the Hud-
son County Boulevard will be the bridge to
cross the Pennsylvania Railroad cut west of
Summit avenue. The Board of Freeholders,
having authorized the erection of such a
structure the construction will begin almost
Immediately.
Engineer Edlow W. Harrison is now at
work preparing the specifications of the
general plan, a verbal sketch of which the
News presents for the first time to the pub
lie. According to Mr.. Harrison, who, by
the way, knows what he is talking about.
The bridge will be the largest road bridge in
the State.
There were two plans for such a bridge
presented to the F~reeholders. One was a
three span iron structure and three truss
span of 800 feet between the four piers. The
two central piers would rest on the island
between the cuts. The other plan was a
bridge of three arch girders, with
a forty-feet carriage way and a ten-feet
sidewalks, and consisting of a single span of
237 feet, clearing the island.
The difficulty about the first plan was
that about eighteen lots of land lying at the
end of Pavonia and Van Reypen avenues,
belonged to the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company. The company said that if
the ~Freeholders adopted the first plan
and placed two piers on the island
between the cuts, the F1eeholders must con-
denim the land and pay for the encroachment.
Besides the county would have, if they put
piers on the island, to pay for the perpetual
right of so doing, when the island was re-
moved, it being the intention, which the
company is now putting into effect, of re-
moving that island and making a big yard
of the space between the banks. On the
other hand the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany offered this proposition to the Free
holders
'If you will clear the cut and island by a
single span we will deed to the county for
nothing the sixteen lots at the end of Pavonia
and Van Reypen venues" The clear span
bridge, it is true, would. at present prices cost
$4,000 more tLan the three span structure,
but the land cost of condemning the
islands on which to place the piers, to say
nothing about the litigation involved, would
run the ultimate cost far ahead of the first
sum. Consequently the Board of Freeholders
have accepted the Pennsylvania Company's
offer, and viii build the clear span
bridge. It will be, as stated, of 231 feet
span, Il the arch will be ,of
steel held up by braces. On top the 40-foot
roadway is to be laid with asphalt pavement,
and from al inspection of the plans the
bridge will be an exceedingly graceful adj
dition to the appearance of the road. 1t will
be lighted by electric lights and from the top
of the now existing island will be 250 feet
clear OF the centre of the span.
