from a human habitation. In fact
there are two bridges, and one OF
them is nearly 100 feet long. As
no one lives a dozen miles east,
north OF south of the bridge there
is . very pertinent inquiry as to
why il is being built, who petition
ed for it and who ordered il. There
is not = scratch Of q pen in the

bridge, and when we asked T.
Godding for information he denied
having any knowledge Of it Com
missioner Kirkpatri,k K says that he
only knows Of one man who has

that the kick has been . strenuous

STANDARD RIVER GAUGE
One VIII Be Put on the NIeIan
Bridge

At the next meeting of the city
council the United States government
will ask. and probably receive, per-
mission to put on the Melan bridge a
government water gauge
The government recently put a
gauge on the Rock Island bridge, but
it was not one of the elaborate affairs
known as the government standard.
The standard gauge is equipped with
float, weight, chain. pulley, and a
lot of machinery which has to be
wound UP before the exact depth of
the water can be determined. The
gauge will be in charge of the United
States weather bureau
This morning Assistant City Engf-
neer King established a bench mark
for the government on the coping of
the Nelan bridge. for the purpose of
showing the relation between city
datum and the gauge to be used by
the government The government
gauge will be set at the deepest point
in the river. which is about the mid
die of the first arch of the bridge. The
bench mark on the bridge is 1876 feet
above the bottom of the river and
1874 above the existing city datum.

Mr. F. Phillips Oppenheim is the

ed interviews made the same blunder.
that Anna sang her sisters songs on
the stage and deceived her audiences,
and, in short. that she managed with

ceive every one. And this despite the
extraordinary difference in the charac-
tiers of the women.
Then. when the naughty sister makes
UP her mind to marry Sir John, she

CAT THE BIG HOUSE"
Book of Quaint Animal Stories by
Anne Virginia CuIbertson.

DUN "a QUAINT animal Stories by
Anne Virginia CuIbertson.
AT the Big House." by Anne Vir-
glnla Culbertson, just published by The
Bobbs-Merrin company of Indianapolis
IS a collection of animal folk-tales of
the south-the sort that Uncle Remus
would have been glad to tell if they
had been ketched in de cornders uf
his 'memb ance." They are in no sense
an imitation or a reproduction of his de-
Hghtful years, but a. supplement [ O them,
the completion of the southern lore.
Mr.. Joel Chandler Harris says that
Miss CulbertsOn has got all the stories.
They are told in an inimitable negro
dialect, impregnated with quaint turns,
with hOmely wisdom and with rich and
racy humor. Some are narrated by
Aunt Nancy, a typical 'foh-de-w -
nanny Others. gathered from the
southern Indians, are put into the
mouth of Aunt 'PhrOny, who has Greek
blood in her veins. The picture of the
old plantation mouse, the songs, half
weird and half comical, crooned by
the old mammies. the natural history
mingled with the unnatural, the tales
which make the animal-folk almost
human creatures with more than hui
man intelligence-all this means many
a happy half-nour for children and
grOWn-upS alike
E. Warde Blaisdell has made thirty
two most ludicrous illustrations for
the book of which sixteen are in color.
The story. why Crabs Walk Back
ward, is the masterpiece of the col
lection, a bit of primitive humor about
the creation that is irresistible.
