NEW FOOTBR|DGE IS NEARING FINISH
 OVER CREEK
FOOTwAY BUILT BY RAILROAD TO BE PUT IN coMMIs-
 SION SUNDAY

The new footbridge across Pinal creek at the Gila Valley depot, which has been under construction for some weeks, is practically completed.
 Not only have the heavy cables which will support the bridge been strung, but the timhers which will support the floor have been put in place. This work was completed yesterday and the approaches put in place. Everything is now in read mess for laying the floor.
 This work will probably be completed today, putting the bridge in commission by Sunday.
 The construction of this bridge comes as the result of an exchange made some time ago between the city council and the Gila Valley railroad. By this ac- ton, portion of Newton street was vacated and the ground turned over to the railroad company. In return, the company agreed to construct the bridge, which is now nearing compile ton.
 The new bridge will be decided ad- vantage to residents living south of Kinney Park, as it will give very convenient means of ingress into this part of the city.
