Now Let Business Boom.

1t is true that every national cleo
tton is preceded by lull in trade, a
certain instability that comes from the
uncertainty of the election. This year
has not been attended by this falling
off of business to such a marked ex.
tent as has been the case at some other
elections, but nevertheless the election
pressure has been felt aud now that
the election is over general business

Anxiety Over Bridge rlatter.

The question as to whether the new
river bridge could be used even if COM
pleted this winter is causing some
speculation because of the fact that
patent block flooring is to be used and
could not be laid in cold weather. 1t
is understood, however. that there
will be no trouble along this line, for
if the regular flooring can not be put
in place as soon as the bridge is COM
pleted a temporary plank floor will
serve during the cold weather.
Everybody is hoping more than ever
now for the speedy completion of the
bridge, since travel on the ferry is al
ready becoming very unpleasant be-
cause of the cold The river is low
and will De shallow most of the time
during the winter, except in times of
occasional freshets. AS "a result Of
the low water the ferry can not get
near the south shore and teams have to
ford a quite long distance. This is
especially hard on horses. The
progress of the Households Construc-
tion Company in erecting the super
structure Of the bridge will be watch
ed with great interest, not to say an
Xiety

Moving to DanVilIe.

Tie uncertainty of the river situa-
tion Is causing several South Danville
families to move to this city in the
fear that If they were to remain at
Riverside this winter they might be-
come cut off from this city just as
they were for month or so last spring
after the food
Some of the men are employed here
In the mills and if they were unable
30 reach the places of their work it
would mean a loss of employment. The
ferry might not be able to operate at
any time within the course of a few
weeks if there happened to be hard
freeze.up.

weapon. She implored the man to seek
some other means Of amusement for her
son. and he replied by shooting an
other time in the air. Then Mrs Bo-
nick went up to him and attempted to
prevent him from shooting by taking
hold Of his arm and pulling 1t down
toward her. Stalnack resisted her In a
friendly manner, but in the scuffie the
revolver was discharged, the bullet en-
tering Mrs. Bonick's head on the left
side. She dropped to the turf and Stall
mack placing the child on the ground
dashed out of the back yard on a BIZ
cycle and brought doctor to the
place. Mrs. Bonick was very weak and
after an attempt was made to check
the flow of blood caused by the bullet
she was taken to the Bridgeport hos
pital where she died late this afternoon.
Deputy Sheriff Charles 2. Stagg OF this
place arrested Stalnack and he is now
held without bail for hearing to-mor-
row morning before, Judge Peck. 1t is
thought he will be charged with man
slaughter. Sheriff Stagg said tonight:
Il am satisfied that the shooting was
entirely accidental, as the two families
had been the best of friends. They vis-
tied each other frequently, and 1t was
only Stalnack's carelessness that kill
ed Mrs. Bonick." Stalnack works in
Bridgeport, is married and has four
children. An inquest will be held to-
morrow by Coroner Doten.
