BRIDGE FOUND IN
UNSAFE CONDITION
Members of the City Council
Examine the OCOnOmO-
woo Bridge.

The committee on streets and
bridges of the Common Council exam
ined what is known as the Oconomo-
woo bridge yesterday and found it in
an unsafe condition and in great need
of repairs at an early day for the ac-
commodation and safety of the travel
ing public. One thing can be said in
praise of the authorities having the
matter in charge. that the bridges,
and there are number of them, are
kept in good repair. The expense is
quite an item in the tax budget an
nually, but that makes no difference
and the bridges are not permitted to
remain unsafe for very long period
of time.
