Prisoners for Hours on Draw of New
Highway Bridge.

Stranded on the draw of the new Highway
bridge for several hours yesterday, with no
means of getting ashore and nearly frozen
by the raw northwest winds, was the pre-
dicament the officers OF the harbor patrol
boat Visilant found five ironworkers IN. The
Vigilant was out on her regular rounds
about the harbor and in the channels In
the vicinity of the city yesterday evening.
and when near the bridge heard calls for
help. Running over to the bridge, the five
men were found on the draw and were
taken aboard the tug.
They were blue with cold, and after be-
ing thawed out gave their names as Robert
Kelly, James Robinson, Oliver Hoover and
NJ. H. Smith OF Harrisburg and George
Rodgers of Philadelphia. They had gone
TO the draw in the morning to finish up
some work, crossing from the bridge in a
small boat, which they tied to a pile. When
the heavy wind sprang up the men found
it impossible to work and determined 10
go ashore, but discovered that their boat
had gone adrift.
The draw was open and they could not
close It. and they were therefore stranded
as surely as II they were hundred miles
from shore. Being Sunday, no boats were
passing, and though they tried several times
to attract the attention of people on the
railway bridge they were not successful.

A Telephone Meeting.

A meeting of the citizens of
Broken Bow was held in the city
Monday to consider the plan of
organizing cooperative tele-
phone company for the county.
The present franchise OF the Cen
trail Telephone Co., having about
expired by limitation the question
as to whether a plan could not be
inaugurated to furnish everybody
in the county with telephone
service at Il minimum price.
The plan contemplates cousoli-
dating all lines and giving every
owner of phone the free use Of
the lines anywhere on the system.
1t was believed if this consolidate
ion could be effected that every
town as we'll as every individual
would receive equal benefit. None
but owners of phones could own
stock and their stock would be
limited by the number of phones
they use. There would be no in
ducement for anyone to want more
stock than he has phones as the
object of the consolidation is to
charge no more per month for
the use of the phones than is
necessary for operating expenses.
Where the scheme has been in
operation the necessary expense
to the members has not been
more than from IS to so cents per
month,
The vote of the sense of the
meeting was more than two to
Que were in favor of the plan.
The meeting was presided over
by l.. H. Jewett and Emerson
Purcell was its secretary. The
chair was authorized to appoint
committee of FIVE of which he
was to be one to investigate the
plan and secure estimates and
report at a subsequent meeting.
