To cover the hole made by the latest Washout he has added 65 feer. making a total of 2S5 feet added in re pairing the two latest washouts. The bridge and/trestle is now 31o0 feet lo1s. almost as far as from the Doris thea ter to venth street. and ought to sat isfy the demands of that watercous SC for some time to come. He will add still five bents more to the bridge in the near future. however, just to show that he wants to deal liberally with the river and keep on the good side of it. The grade will then be filled in som : what and rip-rapped on the upper side. along the north bank of the stream. where the current now runs.
