NEW RAILROAD BRIDGE
Soon to BE Built Across the Missouri
River.

River.
Great Falls, Dec. 15-As soon as the
material arrives on the ground, and 1t
IS now on the way, work will be begun
on the building Of a new railroad
bridge across the river at this point.
The new structure will be a wooden
one, as is the present bridge, and will
be laid on the piers on which the old
bridge now rests. One span at time
will be put in so that traffic may not be
delayed and but little stoppage to the
regular railroad travel will result. The
present bridge has stood since the rail-
road first came to Great Falls and has
given good service. 1t has been expect
ed that a. steel bridge would be put in
at some point On the river, but for sew
eral reasons will not be at the present
time. One of the reasons is that the
bridge is needed as quickly as possible
and contracts cannot be made with the
manufacturers to furnish steel for any
bridge work anywhere in the United
States at date nearer than from 8
to IL months. The furnishing Of steel
for battleship and railroad work in
this country and abroad have so crowd
ed the manufactures that they are all
crowded with orders ahead for the time
stated. In order to get steel for the
long bridge on the New Verona cut
off below Benton the Great Northern
had to dig down and pay q fancy fig
ure over the regular prices in order to
get the material furnished at once.
How much extra was paid is not stated,
put It was good round sum, and
would not have been advanced had it
not been absolutely necessary In the
matter of the Great Falls bridge it is
dlferent, as abutments are already in
for wooden bridge and all that will be
necessary will be to fit the wooden
spans to replace the old ones removed,
and the expense will not be so great as
to cause the company to pay the extra
bonus for steel bridge material for i'm
mediate use. Another reason is that
matters are not entirely settled as to
what the Great Northern will finally
decide upon in the location of it's var
ious depots, etc. A rumor was cur
rent several months ago that the pres
ent passenger depot would be removed
to the west side of the river near the
location of the present shops. This has
not been decided on, although it prob
ably was spoken Of at the time During
the winter corps of Great Northern
surveyors will work in the immediate
vicinity of the city in the laying out Of
numerous sidetracks and several short
branch lines which are in contempla-
tons, and before spring everything per-
tanning to the Great Northern in the
vicinity of Great Falls will have been
definitely settled for keeps
The workmen for the bridge work
have been in the city several days
awaiting the arrival of material.

Snyder the Aggressor

Great Falls, Dec. 15.-On Monday af-
ternoon the prosecution presented" the
evidence of all the eye witnesses to the
shooting of Hopkins by Eugene Sny-
der at HaVre on Oct. ", says the Ben
ton River Press Their stories agreed
in every material particular and show
ed Snyder to have been the aggressor
in the lamentable shooting ARRAY
which resulted in the death Of oliver
Foster and the almost fatal wounding
juries John w. Tattan for the de-
Tense adopted the theory that Snyder
went into Dutch Ems to get Foster,
that after some words with Hopkins
he stopped to pick up package he
had laid down on the floor and was
about to go home when, on rising, he
found that Hopkins had a bead on him
with a revolver; that he then drew his
own weapon in self-defcnse and that
1t was accidentally discharged during
a scuff1e in which Hopkins sought to
get possession of it. Judge Tattan's
explanation of why Hopkins, if he had
the drop, did not shoot Snyder before
he could draw his weapon, was that
Foster and Hopkins had just before
this traded guns sight unseen" and
that rather than depend upon weap-
on he did not even know was loaded,
Hopkins took a long chance by grab
bling at Snyders pistol wrist. The fact
of the ensuing scuffle and Fosters
death We're not part of this case. The
defense also laid great weight upon
Snyder's good character and had sew
eral really good witnesses on this
point. Judge Tattan took the ground
that Dutch En- and the two irrater
of the house testified against defend
ant in an endeavor to shield Hopkins

defendants word as against that Of

TOO MUCH.

Ruffalo is somewhat excited over Christian Science" and the Health Commissioner of the city has made queer move. He has drawn up and in- troduced in the board of aldermen an ordinance which provides that any minister, church member or other per son" who, in the absence of a duly qualified practitioner of medicine, min isters in any manner to the sick or in- iured must within six hours report to the Health department full details of the case and the treatment given. A regulation so extremely comprehensive naturally invited attack by the Chris tian Scientists" and one of them was ingenious enough to use ridicule instead of argument at the public hearing at which the foes and friends of the ordi- nance met to discuss it. Suppose" said this defender of Eddyisnl, suppose that one of you aldermen attended ban quet; suppose you indulged a little too freely, and when you reached home with an aching head. your good wife should fix up little soda, or lemonade, or cracked ice for you Wouldn't 1t be a pleasant thing for her to be obliged to report to the Board of Health, stating name and address of the patient the na- ture of his aff1iction, and so forth?"
 It Is not at all probable that this pro- posed ordinance will pass The discus sion it has raised shows how hard it Is to draw the line sensibly and justly in some medical matters.
