N. j. Coleman, OF San Francisco,
has gone into Elk to take the
management Of the Alamance Co.,
vice S. K. Bradford, resigned. Mr..
Coleman was accompanied by w.
r. Harrison who will act as assay
er for the company.
Gov. Hunt states that Idaho has
10000 acres of land coming to it
from the federal government under
the several land grant acts, and it
is the policy of the state land
board to select timDe lands here
after, for the reason that they are
valuable only in large tracts, and
their selection by the state will
prove valuable asset, while the
agricultural lands will remain
open to actual settlers.
The Idaho County Teachers In
stitute will be held in the high
school building next week, begin
ming Monday morning, August 26.
While the primary object of this
institution is the instruction of
teachers, many of the sessions will
be of interest to the general public.
An excellent corp of instructors
has been engaged and it is believed
that this institute will be the
most instructive and enthusiastic
ever held in the county. A cor
dial invitation is extended to all.
Do not be gulled out of your
money by getting special bargains
on penitentiary or factory made
harness, but come to the Big Buff
alo Cash Store and see the harness
maker cut them out of the very
best leather and Make them up by
hand. You always save money by
buying the best. Do not patronize
eastern factories ana trusts, but
patronize home industry, as we are
the people who help pay the taxes
of Idaho county. w. F. s., Prop.
j. J. Bennett returned Saturday
from trip through the mining
camps Of Elk City, Dixie and
Buffalo Hump. The new mill on
the Jumbo is running day and
night and the results are even bet
ter than expected. They are saw
ing $40 a ton on the plates and the
concentrates show values away up
in the hundreds. Mr.. Brown has
had to overcome a great many OBJ
stacles in getting the mine in oper-
alton and his success will not only
be gratifying to himself but to his
many friends as well.
Marshal Eames and Fred Corliss

weighing over twelve tons, and not
thread or hight line as was used in the
Brooklyn and other suspension bridges.
Here is how the connection was made.
The end of the wire rope, two and quar-
ter inches in diameter, and three thous-
and feet in length was attached firmly
to the anchorage on the Manhattan side.
The other end was then passed over the
tower on the Manhattan side and down 10
a fiat boat at the edge of the water.
on this fat boat the free end of the cable
was fixed, and tugboat started slowly
on the trip across the river, the cable
being carefully reeled Off so as to sink
toward the bottom of the stream, be-
tween the flat boat and the side OF the
river on which it was attached, that 1t
might not impede navigation during the
time that the cable was being pulled
across the stream. When the cable had
been stretched across the river the un-
attached end was passed up over the
Brooklyn tower, and the line hauled from
the bed of the river and drawn taut till
the loose end reached the anchorage on
the Brooklyn side.
With the completion of the temporary

Indeed, the latter is the only suspension
bridge in the world to be compared with
st. and to give some idea of the magnl-
4ude and ambition of the new bridge some
comparative figures between ii and the
old will form the best illustration.
The greatest contrast between the two
lies in their relative strength. Roughly.
the New East River bridge will be four
times as strong as the Brooklyn bridge;
each of its four cables will be about
twice as stout as those which support the
span of the older structure, and in other
respects it's superiority in strength will
be maintained.
Each of the four cables will consist
of 81 strands and each strand will have
2S2 single wires, total of 10,434 wires
in each cable. The normal pull on each
cable will be about 5000 tons, and as
each will be capable of supporting 100000
pounds to the square inch, and will have
222 square inches, net. the engineers cal
culate that the suspension power of the
bridge will be four times greater than the
maximum demand upon it.
The width of the new structure will be

the Brooklyn Bridge, and the character

the river.

the river. @
It has been so arranged that two
strands of each cable or eight strands in
all can be simultaneously made, and a
practically unlimited number of men can
work on them simultaneously by means
of the foot bridges which form the work
ing platform under each cable for its full
length. For this operation four sets OF
machinery will be required, and these Will
so expedite the work on the four cables
that they will be built more rapidly than
ever before thought practicable.
The weather will play an important
part in the making of these cables. In
calm weather the work can be carried
on without interruption, but it will al
most entirely cease during high winds
The cables at each anchorage will be
attached to the forty steel eye bars, four
teen feet long. which are built in solid
masonry. These will be walled in with
granite blocks of the same size as those
used in building the anchorage, after the
cables have been attached.
This new bridge will, indeed, be in
every way a remarkable structure, and
striking monument to American engin-
eering genius. There is no space here to
speak of its commercial value as an in
vestment by the city of New York. but
it will be worth many times the eighteen
millions to be spent upon it.
