PROGRESS OF WORK
 IN MARION COUNTY.

Naturally enough the greatest interest is taken in all that per- tains to the railroad now building in Marion county. The first ques- tion asked is always in regard to the progress made.
 The bridge is progressing at a satisfactory rate. It will not be many weeks before the bridge men are brought in for the pur- pose of putting up the steel. The piers are well on toward comple- tion and before the end of the year the bridge gang will take charge.
 The tunnel, which is one of the great undertakings, and expen- sive as well, is we'll under way and should be turned over to the company by February at the very latest. Day and night the work proceeds and there is but little distance left to connect the two ends. The work of dressing up this great hole in the ground will be but short in regard to time.
 The grading is practically com- pleted as far as George creek, with stretches of it done beyond that point. There is some little dressing up to be done, but this will take only days instead of weeks. MT. Reynolds has con- solidated his camps at Georges creek, and is now working men on every unfinished rod of the ground to be passed over.
 The timbers are being hauled for the various trestles, so there will be no delay in this respect. The bridge gang will precede the track layers, and when the time comes the steel will be laid with out interruption.
 It may now be safely pre- dicted that the cars will be run into Melville before the first of March. This will be greatly to the comfort and profit of all visit ors and land owners. Yellville Republican.
