WHY EADs BRIDGE WAS SAVED
Its Builders Warned by a Former Tor

Its Builders Warned by a Former Tor
nado to Make 1t Stronger.
Senator Teller tells an interesting
story apropos of the partial destruction
of the great Eads bridge. He says that
while the plans were being drawn, and
only the preliminary foundation work
had been done, he had a talk with Capt.
Eads and learned how it was that he
changed the original plan. The incident
is of peculiar interest in connection
with the late storm. The great inventor
said:
Some time ago, after 1 had made all
the plans for the bridge and had pro-
vided for every strain which seemed
possible to be put upon it, there was
one of those cyclones or tornadoes for
which the southwest is famous. During
the storm I saw a locomotive which had
been blown from the track. That gave
me an idea as to the terrific energy de-
veloped by rotary winds, and at once
began to consider what the effect would
be on the bridge, which hoped to make
nv professional monument
..After a long series of calculations
] became thoroughly convinced that
the structure on which was about to
pride myself was much too weak to

STARTED AN "ENDLESS CHAIN"
Seda1ia (AIO) Man in T1onble for Trying
to Raise $500, 500, 100000.

sensation was caused at Sedali;.,
Mo-, the other day by the arrest of E. L.
Mason, a prominent business man, on
a charge of using the United States
mails for fraudulent purposes. \ few
days ago Post Office Inspector J. Z.
Johnston went there from ST. Louis and
inquired into the cause of Mason's send
ing out SO many letters. Mason had
Just laailed $500 letters to Methods
minis ters and deacons all over the coun-
try, requesting them 70 each send him Il
dime to relieve disa bled minister who
had spent his life in preaching and
teaching, and to make an endless
chain to the goth link. The amount
would aggregate S3.s00, 600, DOC. 900. The
disabled preacher for whom the money
was wanted is Gen. j. L. Van Patten, a
teacher in Clavarac college, near Hud-
son, n. y, brother-in-law of Mason
and a prominent grand army man.
Mason is superintendent of agencies
for the Midland Savings and Loan asso-
citation, and is supreme scribe of the
Royal Tribe of st. Joseph. His mail
was stopped pending investigation, but
his arrest was great surprise. Mason

WANT TO SELL THEIR BODIES.
After Three Weeks of Welded Life a
Missouri Couple Are Ready to Die.


do you want to buy the bodies of
myself and wife?" asked a well-dressed
young man at the office of the Central
Medical college at st. Joseph, Mo. He
was accompanied by pretty, young
woman and said they had decided to sell
their bodies for dissection.
Dr. Thompson K. Potter, preside Mt of
the college, said that it was the first
cffer of the kind that had ever been
made to HIM. He asked the young man
and mis- wife when they would deliver
the bodies, and they said they could
Lave them ready at any time. The
Young woman was pale, but firm, and
had evidently made up her mind tn fol-
low her husband in any undertaking.
The college officials informed them that
they did not desire to encourage sui
eide. and refused to make the purchase.
1t was learned later that the young
man was Allen Martin, of Gentry coun-
ty, and that he had been married to the
girl who accompanied him only three
weeks. Nc reason was given for their
desire to sell their bodies to a medical
college before they were dead. At the
time the offer was made they were both

withstand the force of these devastat-
ing storms. The overturned locomo-
tive taught me a lesson which l at once
applied to the bridge. 1 increased the
strength of the structure in every par
ticular. The result was an addition to
the cost of something like S1.O0O,O00,
but l am convinced the time will come
when one of these storms will demon
strate the wisdom of the changes I
made in the PLAN
The time to which Capt. Eads re-
ferred evidently did come the other day,
and the overturned locomotive is prob
ably responsible for the fact that the

of ST. Louis was not altogether de-
stroyed end swallowed up in the Father
