The bridge builders are at work on the Parker bridge. One of the abut- ments on the Arizona side has already been put in place and as soon as the compressor plant is ready for work the abutments in the river will be com menced on. The caisson work will take many months to complete, as aprons will have to run out from the bottoms of all the abutments, giving them large surface. No bottom has been found in the river at the point where the bridge is to be built, but there is cement strata covering a secondary sand and it is proposed to cover this strata as fully as possible, so that there will be no sinking of the massive concrete abutments when they have been put in place. The aprons will cover practically the entire bot tom of the river from one shore to the other. The bridge is to be one of the cantalever type, but much shorter than that at Topock, on the main line of the Santa Fe.

Last Thurday morning Jeff Woods, an insane patient from thls county, made a murderous assault on Or. Ray Ferguson, superintendent of the in- sane asy lum at Phenix, striking him on the head with an axe, inficting a wound over the temple. As the doc tor was swung around by the blow the insane man struck him again in the back of the head. The doctor fell to the ground and was again struck in the back with the axe. A guard fired both barrels of shotgun at the man. iac, the shot striking him in the back and diverting his attention from Fer guson, otherwise it is thought he would have been killed. Before the man recovered from the effects of the shot he was overpowered by attend. ants and locked up in a padded cell It took thirty-fve stitches to close the wound in Dr. Ferguson's head. Woods was sent from this county about eigh, months ago, having been brought 1T from Goldroad. He was miner an( was aged about thirty-eight years.

One of the greatest disappointments experienced by the children of this county was the failure of the Norris x Rowe circus to give an entertainment here last Wednesday. But the fault was not theirs. The train bearing the show was stalled in Wallapai valley many hours and when it arrived at Kingman it was after sundown. The engine of the train was unable to switch it out and when it was at last placed on the sidetrack where it could be reached it was long after dark and the management concluded that it would be out of the question to give a performance. Hundreds of people were here from the outside and the little ones were not any more disap- pointed than the older ones.

Dr. J. R. Whiteside, who was in Kingman from Chloride Wedesday last, has proposition to make to the board of supervisors and the people who have the interest of the county in general at heart. The proposition is to build and maintain ferries at the mouth of the Virgin river and at FL dorado Canyon. At present it is i'm possible to cross the Colorado river at either place, teams and men having to go around to Needles or Scanlon Ferry to cross to the Arizona side, or vice versa. The maintenance of those ferries would amount to little, the ferryage paying practically all the ex- pense. 1t would be a good plan to try the experiment and thus aid in the opening up of the north part of the | cOupty.

Yavapai county supervisors have ar rived at Nelson with their county sur veyor for the purpose of checking up the initial point from which the sur vey of the dividing line is to run. Surveyor Friel has taken as his initial or checking point the geological sur vey at Mount Flood and Pecacho Peak, where the longitude 1l3 west from Greenwich is established. The surveyors will also take observations a Nelson for the purpose of getting at the meridian 1I3. degrees 20 minutes, which is the meridian established by law dividing the two counties on the west part of the territory from those on the east. On this line will be esta- blished the partition of Yuma an6 Maricopa and Yavapai counties ant Mohave and Yavapai and CoconinC counties. That it is permanently es tablished is of vital interest to tn, people Tn all these counties is ap parent, as on it depends the tax on ; large amount of property situated along the line of all the counties.

LIVE STOCK
Prices Have Advanced Rapidly
Within the Year.

The prices of live stock has advanced
greatly this year and has affected
mules and horses more than other stock.
The advance on mules has been $40 a
head over last years prices, and the
extra quality well fatted mules are
bringing almost any price, as the mar
ket in this city and many other cities is
short, although poorer grade of mules
can be had in any number from $1OO
up. Another advance in the price of
mules is expected to occur in March and
April, as the farmers in Indiana, Mis-
souri,, Illinois and Kentucky are short
on stock and good mules will be in
great demand. The rise is expected to
be at least $40 per head, if not more.
Good work horses have increased in
price over last year, and are in great
demand in the East, Ohio, New York,
New Jersey, Maryland and other East
ern States using no mules, and good
sound work horses are an ever present
necessity to the farmers of that section.
The price of horses has increased SIS to
$40 per head, and another jump in price
is expected this spring Courier Journ-

MORE ABOUT
THE PIKE.
From Columbia to Greensbure....
One Man Wants $1,000
Worth Of Stock.

In last weeks issue we called atten-
ton to the Importance of building a
pike from Columbia to Greensboro or
from Columbia to Greensburg. From
several parties we have received very
encouraging endorsementfor the Green's
burg end of it. AS mentioned in last
weeks issue, this is a business propo-
sition that should interest the people of
both towns and all between them.
Greensburg has bridge and an effort is
now being made to secure the building
of a bridge over Russell's creek which,
if it is done, will leave the proposition
in much better shape as there would
not be single stream to span. We do
not know what it would cost to build a
frst-class road but figure that $25, 900
would do it. If this estimate or guess
is within the neighborhood of correct
ness it does seem that some few good
active men would soon secure that
amount. Already one man has offered
to take 81, ZOO of the stock on this end
of the line. Wake up dear people,
wake up.

Steel BRIDGE
To Be Erected Across Green River
Within Ninety Days.

1t will be gratifying to the people of
this section to learn that Green River
will be spanned with bridge at an
early date. Mr.. John F. Triplett, of
this city, director in the Campbells-
vile, Muldraugh's Hill and Columbia
Turnpike Company. informed us that
at meeting of the above company held
Saturday, January 18th, 1907, at Green
River, it was decided to replace the
old modern bridge with modern up TO-
date steel structure and the contrac-
tors, who were bidding on the work,
agreed to have it completed in sixty
days. The directors, however, decided
to give the contracting firm ninety
days. ~
When the bridge is completed Adair
county will again be in touch with the
outside world, and all the petty annoy
ances and additional expense of both
passenger traffic and freight will be
forgotten in the enjoyment of this
much missed necessity.
The party whose hand started the
blaze, if such be the case and we do
not doubt it, was an enemy to Column
bia.

CONCERNING THE BIRDS SCHOOL.

Your correspondent closed his school
at the Bird district, Friday Jan. A 1907.
He takes this method of thanking both
patrons and pupils for the kindness
shown him during his long stay with
them, this being his third term at that
place. He certainly appreciated the
compliment paid him through the col
umns of the News by Miss Helena
Hundley, and desires to say in the be-
half of Miss Hundley that during the
seventeen months which she was his
pupil she was absent only fourteen days,
always tried to know her lessons and
was never known to be disobedient to
school discipline. He does not mean to
boast, but believes that it would be hard
to find another school in the rural dis
tricts of Kentucky where for twelve
consecutive months the department
would average 100 per cent, without
corporal inducements on the part of
the teacher, where the teacher had
only to make his desires known to be
readily obeyed by his pupils.
