THOSE BRIDGES
Contracted for by the c. K. & Nj. Yes
terday-W0nderful Structures in
Strength and Workmanship-Th
Approximate Price.

The new bridges contracted for by
the Cincinnati, Richmond 4 Muncie
railroad yesterday, with the Wabash
company, are to be wonders OF
strength and workmanship. The
bridges are being built especially for
this purpose, and will be unusually
heavy and solid as street crossing.
They will be so constructed that
a freight train with double
header can cross at high
rate of speed without even shak-
ing them. There will be no occa-
sion for slowing up ON the bridges
and trains will not be delayed there
byk1n the least The 120 foot bridge
viii be as rigid as the shortest over
head crossing, and speed will not
have to be slackened in the least to
cross them. The contract calls for
bridges that will bear $50 ton live
load. The contract price is, approx
imately, $4,000 This amount, with
the money required to purchase
rights of way, ETC., will use up within
the city limits the full amount of the
subsidy voted in this township, and
perhaps more. The work will be
pushed with vigor, though the work
men are at present temporarily de-
layed by the rains.
The bridges over the streets will
have solid steel floor, so there will
be absolutely no danger from mate
rial dropping through, ETC.

STILL ANOTHER
Claim Presented BY a Supposed Brother
of the Late d. S. Dibble.

Thomas NJ. Jones of Raleigh, Mo-,
is in the city today representing a
man of the above named town, who
claims to be brother of the late d.
S. Dibble. Mr. Jones is an attor-
ney and did not know of the discov-
cry of Mr.. Dibble's wife and chill
dren until he arrived today. He
says that if it can be proven that the
New York parties are properly re-
lated, the supposed brother, whom
he is representing, will of course
have no claim on the property. The
man who is said to be a brother of
the late Mr.. Dibble, says that he had
a brother by the name of Daniel who
disappeared many years ago and has
never been heard from until the ac-
count of his death came to his notice
few weeks ago.
Mr.. Chambers, who has charge of
the estate, said today that a certain
woman, who claims to be a relative
of Mr.. Dibble, has written him sew
eral times asking him why the money
had not been sent to her; that she
was relative and would not claim
the money unless it belonged to her.
Mr.. Chambers has had many other
similar requests" from relatives in
all parts of the country.

WATER CRESS.
Story of An Enterprising Local Com
pany That Failed, But Not
Through ANY Lack
of Industry.

This story is old in time, but it is
nevertheless new, and the public has
: right to know all about it. Industry
should have some sort of reward, and
in this instance if the young men en-
gagged in the enterprise get some
credit it will be all they ever expect
out of the deal
About two years ago Elmer Egge-
never, Paul Wilson, Robert Charles
and Waldo Kaufman, who had seen
water cress quoted in market re-
ports at a fair price per bunch, de-
cided that,a there is eoodly supply
of that condiment about the streams
of Wayne county, they would
gather some for the Gin
einnati market and thereby be-
come wealthy. The plans were well
laid. and Messrs. Wilson and Charles
drove over to the vicinity of Milton
TO gather the precious vegetation.
They worked hard all day in the mud
and wet, gathering the crop They
cot two barrels of it and brought il
home, placing it in a conveniently
located ware room near fourth and

ist says that Henry u. johnson is
active in forming an Indiana anti
imperialistic league, and that he is
furnishing the national league with
the names of men to be written to
on the subject.
The statement that General Lew
Wallace was considered for the chair
manship of the national league meet
ing here was a mistake and arose
from the fact that he was talked OF
for the permanent presidency of the
Indiana league. The suggestion was
dropped when he protested. John

Returned From NewSOme.

George H. Lake returned Yesterday
from trip to Newsome, where he is in
terested in mining properties and states
that there is general activity in business
and every one is greatly encouraged in
that section over the outlook. He visited
most of the mining properties in that
section and speaks very highly of the
showings thus far obtained. At the Iron
Crown, he says, there is unusual good
feeling over the property's being perm
anent paying mine. This comes from the
TACT that they have just recently demon
strated its true value, derived from the
vast amount of development work which
mas been prosecuted.
