Built Saratoga's Iron Bridge

George f. King, accompanied
by his wife and daughter. passed
through Saratoga Sunday on their
way home after visiting his daugh-
ter, Mrs. Bell of Encampment.
Mr.. King is the president of the
King Iron Bridge company of
Des Moines, Iowa, and constructed
the large iron bridge across the
North Platte river at this place
during 1885, twenty years ago.
MIR. King took great interest in
looking the structure over to
see how it had stood the wear and
tear of travel, and was very much
pleased to see that there was not
the least sign of weakness in any
part of the structure.
Saratoga was a very small
specimen of "A town at that time"

expected it would amount to
much. To come here after twenty
years and see the wonderful i'm

but in the surrounding country.

you have sidewalks, graded streets
and electric lights. Twenty years

THE improvement find in this

like a different country than it

the company expects to put on at

are able TO demonstrate that the
scheme is a success.
"The distance between Walcott
and Encampment is practically A.
miles, and the auto is expected to
make the round trip in a day, al
lowing at the start about four
hours each way. The machine
will generate about forty-five
horse power and is expected TO
make fifteen miles an hour. The
difference in opinion regarding
the feasibility of the project is
very wide, but the promoters have
been studying on the plan for
some months and believe they
have a winning proposition. Any
way the machine is in no doubt
on the way by this time and is
bound to have a fair trial.
"If thoroughly successful, the
company has extensive plans, en-
bracing several routes which will
be carried out. They will plan to
go around the worst stretches of
the road and some of the worst
grades, and if the business war
rants it, will put on an auto truck
for baggage and express"

Saratoga Entertainment Club

1t would appear that there is a
misunderstanding on the part of
some of the members of the Sara
toga Entertainment Club, and the
general pablo, in regard to the
rules governing admittance to the
club meetings. Concerning this.
the bylaws provide as follows:
"Only members of the club
shall be allowed to attend club
dances; Provided:
"That, should a member wish to
invite a friend to attend, he shall
be responsible for said friend. and
pay the required admission fee"
This bylaw is not intended to
prohibit members from bringing
ladies who are not members, but
the club meetings are not public
balls: the membership is large
and the hall is small, and specta-
tors occupy space which should
belong to the dancers. Therefore,
it is requested that non-members
refrain from attending the club
meetings, except when specially
invited and vouched for by a
member.
