PONTOON PROPOSED
A Valuable Suggestion as to the
Wagon Bridges.
PHIL MITCHELL GIVES HIS VIEWS.

An Economical and Practical Method of
Providing the Connecting Link With tho
Lower End OF the County-A Means Of
Securing 1t ut Once.
at seems to me that if that wagon
bridge across the mouth of Rock
river is to materialize." said Phil
Mitchell this morning, 1.-The sooner
we get about it. the better. Now, it
has appeared to me that if the peo-
pie are DESTROYS of taking hold of
this matter, and certainly all should
be particularly the merchants
they can do it at once, at least as
soon as the ice goes out in the
spring. A pontoon bridge will an
swer the purpose fully for the pres
ent. and that can he supplied on
very short notice, and at very rea-
sonable cost. In a locality where
varying stages Of water occur. a pom
noon bridge is as good as any other.
The only trouble would be with the
approaches in times of unusually
high water, but that does not occur
more than once in 10 wears, or say
once in five years, and the Interrupt
ton would not be such as to entail
great hardship or loss. When such
emergencies arise as cannot be pro-
vided against they would naturally
cause Inconvenience to any pro ect,
so that cannot be considered as cut
ting much figure.
Would Serve Nine Months In the Year.
"a pontoon bridge across Rock
river would serve a good purpose
nine months in the year, the only
time it could not be of utility Icing
when the river is frozen over and
then the trouble would not be as 20
the usefulness of the bridge. but the
risk of leaving it there and taking
the chances that would naturally
arise when the river breaks up in
the spring. All things considered,
though, il could be reasonably pre-
sumed that pontoon bridge would
be of service three-fourths if not two
thirds of the seasons round.
There is the question also of get
ting a bridg re over the canal. That
is the most serious matter to be con-
sidered in connection with the new
highway to the lower end. 1t would
be necessary to undergo certain
formalities with the government be-
fore this could be accomplished, but
| have no doubts that draw bridge
could be arranged for at not very
great expense. The pontoon bridge
near the mouth OF Rock river. which
is not navigable, would require
no provision for opening to admit
the passage Of steamers, and could
be made solid clear across. All boats
will go up the canal that have occa-
sion to so inland at that point, any
way.
1.-The pontoon bridge would for
the present at least. supply the miss
ing link at Rock river, | believe"

SHOULD BE SUPPRESSED,
A Scoundrel Who Insults Decency and
Little Children.

A scoundrel Who Insults Decency and
Little Children.
In little hut on the river bank
between the viaduct and the Rock
Island bridge lives a beast in human
form who delights his baser and
what appears to be his ma
tural instincts by insulting lit
tie children who pass his lonely
abode on their way to skate. This
scoundre! is n man who in the sum-
mer time works about the saw mills
and during the winter lives hermit
like in the way stated. He for
merly dwelt in a similar manner
in the lower end of the city, but this
season he has preempted the ground
for his hut, where people will be
more apt to be brought in contact
with him in going to and from the
skating surfaces on the river.
Brutality Toward Children.
Yesterday afternoon a bevy of lit
tie children were coming down the
slough when this fiend appeared at
his hut wearing no clothes except a
flannel shirt, and as the little ones
came up made an outrageously in
decent exposure. The little ones
were greatly frightened and on
reaching home related their exper-
fence to their parents. The result
was that complaints were made to
Chief Etzel this morning and the
probability is that the brute will be
arrested before he is more violently
dealt with by justly indignant peo-
pie who have learned of his es-
capade.
