Everybody in my State is busy with
the maple sugar season." said William o.
Scott, of st. Adams, Vt. at Wizards
last night. Vermont turns out more
sugar and syrup than all the rest of the
country combined though many other
States make maple sap products, espe-
cially New York. There is a great deal
of fraud in the maple sugar business. and
the fresh pure maple sign is not always
what it reads. The sugar is too often
made of cane sugar and placed on the
market with little dash Of the genuine
to give it taste. In some States. in this
way, you can get maple sugar all the year
around, but very few people know what the
genuine article tastes like. The maple sap
is source of great wealth to Vermont. as
we ship all over the country in large guam
titles"

A Register reporter yesterday inter-
viewed several of the promoters of the
new bridge acoss. the river between
Benwood and Bellaire, known as the
Benwood and Wheeling Bridge Co.
This bridge has been talked of for
some time, and for the last few months
has almost ceased to be topic of dis
custom Now the promoters are show
inN by their actions that all of this
talk has not been without cause, and
that they propose to build a bridge.
The plans for this new structure have
been made and the company is about
ready to commence to build.
The contracts for the bridge structure
will be let about May list, and the
bridge is to be completed in eighteen
months from January 1st, 1901, which
would make the completion in June,
1902 At meeting of the promoters,
plans for this bridge were decided on
that will involve an expenditure of
about a half million dollars. The
bridge will be of the most modern
plan, and the promoters say it will be
the finest one between Pittsburg and
Cincinnati.
The stockholders of this company
claim that the litigation regarding the
new ferry across the river has held
them back several months. The loca-
ton of the bridge, Of course, will be
made by the government, but the COM
pany feel that the site they have Sc
lected will be agreeagle to the govrn-
ment The present location as to ap-
proaches will be on Seventh street in
Benwood, and about a block above
Thirty-fourth street in Bellire.
The company already has purchased
over $4,000 worth Of real estate on
the two sides of the river, and this
alone is evidence sufficient that they
mean business. A number of the pro-
motors are stockholders in the present
ferry in operation between Bellaire
and Benwood. This new bridge will
be of much advantage to this city, as it
will almost make Bellaire and Benwood
one city.
While in the publie's mind there is
much doubt as to the building of this
bridge, as it has been talked of so
long, at present it is backed by a
number of the best business men in
the Ohio valley, and the company
formed is one that means business and
will hustle the construction from now
on.
The location selected by this COM
