A Bridge of Pure Agate.

The most valuable natural bridge in
the world is to be found in Arizona,
lying across a deep chasm 40 feet in
width. 1t is petrified tree about four
feet in diameter and about 100 feet in
length. 1t is pure agate all through,
and therefore is much more valuable
as regards material than any bridge of
marble or granite would be.

MR. HUDSON RESI6NR.
Assistant Santa Fe Freight Agent
Gets A Better Place.

- Charles r. Hudson has resigned az
assistant general freight agent of the
Santa Fe with headquarters in Tope-
ka, says the State journal. He will
take the position of general freight
agent of another line, but at present re-
himself with. His new position will
be much better from a financial stand
point than his present one.
Mr.. Hudson will probably not leave
the service of the Santa Fe before Oc-
tober !. -
1t is known that the appointment of
Mr.. Hudson as general freight agent of
the Mexican Central railway has been
under consideration by the officials of
the road. and 1t may be that the Cen.
trail is, the line that has secured Mr..
Hudson's services.
Mr.. Hudson had been assistant gen.
eral freight agent of the Santa Fee
since 1890, and during that time has
had charge of the tariffs of the entire
Santa Fe system. He is one of the most
able freight men in the west, and is
recognized as such.
Mr.. Hudson started with the Santa
Fe railway as stenogrspher. Prior to
his appointment as assistant freight
agent be held the positions of general
freight agent of the New Mexico s.
Arizona and Sonora railways with
headquarters at Quaymas, Mexico, and
vice president and division freight
agent OF the Rio Grande & Ell Paso
railroad with headquarters at Ell Paso.
A Mexico City dispatch dated Aug
ust27 says: The recent visit to this city
of Mr.. G. r. Hudson, of Topeka, assist
ant general freight and passenger
agent of the Santa Fee, is considered to
have been very significant Mr.. Adam
Huffman, general freight and passen-
ger agent of the Mexican Central, went
to New York several weeks ago in a
very serious state of health. His COL
lapse resulted from the strain of his Of
fetal duties, and advices from New
York indicate that little hope is enter
tanned of his ever recovering sufficient
ly to resume his railroad work. There
is good reason to believe that Mr.. Hud-
son is slated for his position, and that
he came here to look over the situa-
tion and consider the advissbility of
accepting it. Both President Robin
son and Vice President and General
Manager Nickerson, of the Central,
were formerly Santa Fe men, and 1t
has been their policy to secure Santa
Fe men for the Central when possible.
