ST. LOUIS THIRD BRIDGE.
Special Boards Requirement That the
Main Span Be 700 Feet Is Caus-
ing Trouble.

WASHINGTON, July 10.-Secretary AL
| ger to-day ordered the appointment of a
| new board of army officers to pass upon
the plans for the proposed third bridge
across the Mississippi river at st. Louis,
Mo-, between the two other bridges now
| spanning that waterway. This action was
decided upon after a hearing which the
secretary gave to the parties who are in
terested in the construction OF the bridge
and who oppose the recommendation OF
the existing board that the principal span
of the structure should be 100 feet III
length. The board twice reported in favor
of the 700 feet main span, and the second
hearing at st. Louis was granted because
the bridge promoters Were unwilling to un-
dertake its construction on the lines pro-
posed by the engineer officers. The per-
sons interested insisted that to require the
main span to be 700 feet was practically
prohibitive, because the great expense in
volved would compel excessive tolls to be
charged and make the enterprise CONNER
cially Improbable. Furthermore, they
claimed there was no necessity for such
an extended span. They believed authority
should be granted to construct the bridge
and Were willing to make the main spar
about the same as those of the two other
bridges across the river, which are from
$50 to 200 feet less than the span favored
by the board.
The whole matter was again gone over
before the secretary at the hearing to-
day, and, in view of the great interests
involved, he decided to appoint an entirely
new board, thoroughly familiar with the
river and the requirements of the locality,
to pass upon the question.
President Clark's last words to the dele
gates We're as follows:
Take this convention home with you.
New responsibilities are yours. You have
now more to account for before the throne
of God. Unless you Endeavorers who came
ITO this convention are more faithful, more
loyal to your church, better supporters of
your pastors. more inspired with mission
ary enthusiasm, you have lost your oppor-
tunity, and God will hold you responsible.

guiltless. Take it to your church, your

DOES DRINKING IRRITATE YOU?
Physicians Claim That Drinking
Causes Rad yTemner.


Many men who do not consider them
selves drunkards, but who imbibe more or
less liquor during the day cannot account
for their increasing irritability and the
fact that they are not as cool headed and
their judgment is not as good in business
matters as it has been. This is con-
dition that invariably accompanies drink
ing. whether it be excessive or moderate,
and generally interferes with business sue
cess and domestic happiness.
