Old Structure Over Elk
Gives Way to New. !.
THE AMERICAN RIVER GRADE
Road Builders Reached Elk
City Last Saturday.

The crew Of road builders under Con-
tractor Meeker and Surveyor Erskine
Saturday moved out to American liver.
on the Elk City-Dixie road. AS has
been their custom in the past, camp
was made on Sunday. Monday morn
ing the crew, which consists of about
Is men, began work on the new Ameri-
can river grade. The new road will
cross the river about 600 feet up stream
from the present bridge, and the grade,
which is now the heaviest and most
difficult to travel on the Dixie. road,
will be reduced about one-half,
New Bridge Over Elk Creek.
If the amount of money on hand is
sufficient, new bridge will replace the
one that now spans Elk creek at this
place. Commissioners Meeker and
Erskine must feel assured there will be
enough money for the bridge, because
men and teams are now assembling the
material that will be necessary. The
improvement is really a necessary one
and for that reason it is thought that
any sum lacking could be provided by
popular subscription from the people of
Elk City and vicinity.
The present bridge is about ten years
old. 1t is very much worn and is con-
sidered unsafe.
The new bridge will be about 300 feet
in length,
Work Accomplished.
Commissioner Meeker stated that for
seven weeks in the beginning of the
work not day was lost on account of
bad weather. The crew has numbered
as high as 80 men, but when snow was
encountered on the summit last week
a number of the men cashed in and
quit
Good reports on the condition of the
road come from persons who have trav-
eled over it. In addition to the road
grading culverts have been put in, a
bridge was built over Newsome creek
and dam was put in that stream to
turn the water at high stages.
1t appears, judging from reports, that
the money appropriated contributed
and donated for the road has been used
to the best advantage.

To the presence of mind as we'll as
the GOODNESS of Motorman Taylor is due
the escape of Grant Smith, aged 3 years,
from horrible death. Two cars were
on the track near Wellman & Cos on
Texas avenue, one going down, the
other coming UP, when the child ran
across the street 1t was within a few
feet of Taylor's car Death seemed to
be inevitable, but with heroic effort he
checked the car, which struck the child
Slightly and rolled it off the track on the
brick pavement. The child suffered but
slight bruises. Motorman TAYLOR should
be commended very highly. Parents

MISS SALLIE NELSON.


The long, long days of suffering are
ended, and the freed spirit is now in
the realm of eternal sunshine
The death of Miss Sallie Nelson was
not unexpected. but was nevertheless a
shock and deep sorrow to her relatives
and friends. Hers has been brave,
even heroic fight. For several years not
knowing what a we'll day meant she
went her way uncomplainingly, doing
the duty that lay nearest her, Sorely
bereaved in the death of her sister, the
accomplished and lamented Miss Kate
Page Nelson, she lifted herself bravely
from the enveloping sorrow, took up her
sisters consecrated vocation of teach
ing, and did her work well, until worn
with i'll health she closed her school, and
devoted herself to the duties of her
home.
A gentle. modest woman, loyal and
devoted to those of her family and inner
circle of friends-for she went not out
to seek new ones-she will be missed.
She leaves sorely bereaved brother,
Mr. w. A. Nelson, and other relatives
to mourn her loss
Funeral services were held ii her
home on Grand avenue at 80 Friday
morning, DIR. Spearing reading the bur-
ial service of the Episcopal church. In
terment in Oakland cemetery.
