Few people recognize that Chicago
to-day possesses more bridges in NUM-
Der than any other city in America.
Collectively they constitute a greater
total length in miles than any other
system The extent of single span

sian that of any other bridge. Modern
bridge construction is embodied - and
Illustrated with a greater variety Of
perfected mechanical devices in Cllica-
go than is the case in any other city
In the world.
Standing out like monuments erected
to engineering skill, to a peoples enter
prise and to mechanical perfection.
these bridges present a greater variety
of admirable features, and are evil
dences of better workmanship than
can be found iii the best of all the
cities in either the Old or the New
World. q
Chicago has siXty-eigh bridges SPAN
ming thessriYer and its branches at
every point where commerce and traf-

thirty-eight systems of viaducts, which

transportation Represented among
these sixty-eight bridges is to be found
every description of swing or draw
bridge which the world possesses to-
day that is of practical value. They
constitute, within radius of a few

Accident" SwindIers.

The extension Of electric traction has
brought upon the scene particularly
dangerous and offensive swarm, Of ras.
calls who prey upon the street railroad
companies by bogus claims for personal
injuries received in real or imaginary
accidents. They are fostered by a tribe
Of disreputable attorneys, who make a
practice Of communicating with all
persons whom they can identity as
concerned in any street railway mis-
hap, and often without instructions,
issue process against the companies.
Some of these legal sharks have regu-
lar staff Of detectives, who prowl about
the depots and termini Of the lines
on the lookout for cases. False wit
nesses are easily procured, and juries
are usually liberal in the matter Of
damages, the greater portion Of which
are swallowed up in the attorney's
costs" The evil has become SO great
that the street railway press is suggest
ing the formation Of mutual protec.
ton society Of some kind. It Is pro
posed to keep a register of the names Of
claimants, and interchange information
as to persons who, it is more than sus-
pected, make a trade of the business
and travel from city to city for the
purpose. s

An Indianian, being Tilted, ate three
bars of soap. Don't set him down at
once as a would-be suicide. He may
be a philosopher. He was sick with
love. He wanted to be cured Of it.
The condition of the stomach has much
to do with the degree Of love, in very
many cases. The Indiana man perhaps
knew that the divine emotion would
not trouble a man who had three bars
Of soap in his stomach. The man may
have trouble with his soap, but he'll
hardly be able, in the future, to think
of the girl without that strong, soapy
taste in his mouth. In short, he's
cured. And at three bars Of soap, it's
a dirt cheap cure, too.
