OF the world. 1t was opened for traffic IN
1855, and continued in service for over
forty years, with.such changes as became
necessary from time to time. The origi-
nal bridge had wooden trusses suspended
on stone towers, and in 1880 the suspend
ed structure was changed to steel. the
stone towers re- placed by steel six years
later. Between the two towers the dis
tance was S32 feet and the height of the
railway tracks above the water was 258
feet.
The removal of the old structure and
the construction of the single arch bridge
was daring feat, when it is considered
that the entire work was accomplished
without the suspension of traffic for a
day. Six million pounds of steel were
used in the rebuilding, which was done
by sections.
The Grand Trunk is not anxious to
adopt the new Interchangeable mileage
ticket through the Michigan section of its
road. 1t is one of the roads affected by
the Michigan two cent law, and is not
permitted to charge three cents under any
circumstances. The new book is to be
sold at thirty dollars, which Is three
cents per mile, and if, when the mileage
has all been used, it is found that 1t has
been done'in accordance with the agree
ment made between the purchaser and
the road, there will be rebate of nine
| teen dollars paid to the passenger, max
| ing the rate two cents per mile. This is
the rate the Grand Trunk must charge,
no matter what sort OF ticket is used,
aud the passenger offices think there will
be trouble in case it becomes necessary to
refuse some man his rebate.

Mr.. LUNT'S 5000.
Firemen Arrived just In the Nick of Time
to Save It.

The alarm of fire rung in about four
O'Clock yesterday afternoon from Box 81,
was oecasioned by lively and enterpris-
ing though small blaze in the three story
house No. 226 York street. The tenants
in this house are James McCullum, who
lives on the first floor, James W. Queen
on the second floor, and James B. Lunt
on the third floor. The fire was on Mr..
Lunt's floor, and in the bed room off the
dining room Mrs. Lunt had been in the
room lying on the bed short time before
the fire was discovered. The flames broke
out near the bureau, but the f1remen were
in doubt as to whether the origin was in
the bureau or in the ceiling near the
chimney. Mrs. Lunt is confident that
there were no matches about the bureau
where they could have caused the fire.
In the bureau besides Mr.. Lunt's In
surance papers, was wallet containing
5000. The flames were just reaching this
wallet whom the fremen also came. They
got the stream just in time to save the
bureau and the money.
The damage done to the house and fur
nituresswas not great and the loss will
probably not exceed $50.
There was an insurance Of $1,000 on the
building in the New York Underwriters,
Mr.. Allen, Jr., agent.
