CITY TO DRAW NEW PLANS
FOR ARROYO SEC0 BRIDGE
Residents Object to Truss Via
duct at Avenue 43

Proceedings for the construction of
q bridge over the Arroyo Seco at Ave-
nue. Forty-three were abandoned by
the council yesterday and new plans
are to be drawn.
1t was intended to use a part of the
old Main street bridge in the construc-
tion of this new bridge, but the peo-
pie in the assessment district, who will
have to pay for it, have made up their
minds that they do not want a truss
bridge, SO another kind will be pro-
vided. This will leave the material
in the old Main street bridge to use
somewhere else.
In the meantime the old bridge will
be repaired from the bridge fund, for
It is likely to be some time before the
new one will be constructed.

reads as follows:
without intent the office has devel-
oped a continuous performance in pro-
viding wedding ceremonies. A few
years ago several young ladies were
taken into the composing room and
their services have been very satisfac-
tory; In fact, their steady effort has
attracted attention from the sensible
young men who are looking for help
mates and women capable of making
happy homes for good men. Miss Iva
Rogers, Miss Virginia Dickerson and
Miss Laura Murphy have all retired
from the payroll to accept better posi-
lions in charge of the homes of hus-
Ting young men. Commencing with
this week another force of ladies will
gradually be installed in the compos-
ing-room, and we serve notice now,
that a declaration of purposes must
be made by the young men who may
make the next raid on the office for
wives, or We shall enter suits for dam
ages, and using undue influence to in
jure the business of the proprietor.
We are not sure but what 1t would be
we'll to give the old maids a chance by
teaching them the trade Of type
setting, but the young healthy girls
are a pleasure to look upon as well as
to have on the payroll, and there is a
chance for a quick, intelligent girl
not only to learn a trade, but almost a
certainty of getting an industrious
husband by holding down a job in the
office. Come, girls. we will do our
part, and the future is up to you"
The notice has caused all the young
marriageable girls in town to take no.
tice and it is said that there are more
applicants than could fill fifty places.
Many of the applications have been
strictly private, but the proprietor will
have no trouble in finding girls to take
the places of the married ones.
