providing that the necessary height, 2l
feet or over, is guaranteed in all cases.
or course no final decision can be reached
until finished plans Of the proposed struc-
ture have been submitted for approval
but. in a general way, we would require
the full road bed OF the track leading to
the new Scranton depot. and the roadbed
Of our main line to be bridged by one sin
gle span in each case IL has been sug-
gested in connection with this work that
pier might be placed on the division line
between the Delaware, Lackawauna and
Western Diamond branch and the Delawa-
ware and Hudson spur to the new station,
also one between the new depot tracks and
our main line, then just west Of our right of
way along the Lockawanna river thus
spanning the Delaware and Hudson prop
erty from the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western to the westerly boundary line Of
the main line with two clear spans Of
about 100 feet each, which would be an
economical design for the structure con-
templated, Yours truly

WAS IT ENOUGH

A young rufiian. too full OF liquor,
raised dangerous disturbance at
Miners Eighth Avenue Theatre during
yesterdays matinee. He jumped to his
feet In the front row of the gallery Just
after the performance commenced. ut
tered IA volley OF oaths and expressed a
desire to whip any one in the house.
When an officer endeavored TO remove
him. he proved a tough customer and
nearly succeeded In throwing the police
man over the railing into the orchestra.
OF course there was almost n panic in
the theatre. and II took two officers to
remove the offender. He was taken to
jefferson Market Police Court and fined
SO or ten days Imprisonment
The punishment Is not enough for the

death, or at least serious injury. II the
