TORCH
BRIDGES ALONG COPPER
RANGE ARE COMPLETED
| MP RTANT IMPROVEMENTS
BROUGHT ABOUT THIS YEAR.
Old Wooden Bridges are Replaced by
More Durable Structures.

Following the policy adopted some
time ago of replacing the wooden
bridges along the route of the Copper
Range with concrete culverts and fills
or steel spans, a number of important
improvements have been brought about
this year. A new steel span, 46 feet,
3 inches long supported in the center
by 40 foot concrete pier and at the
north and south ends by concrete piers
25 and 10 feet long respectively, has
been placed over the ravine just north
of the Copper Range depot and over
the tracks of the Houghton County
Traction company and in the spring a
20-foot reinforced pier will be placed
at the north end of the bridge.
over the Hungarian creek, another
steel bridge has been installed, about
the same length as the one at Lake
Linden, but supported by three piers,
one i'm the center being 60 feet high.
About two miles north of Lake Lin
den, third bridge has been installed.
The bridges are provided with guard
rails and are up-to-date i'm every de-
tail, and the Improvement is the most
important one that has been accom-
.plished in copper country railroad cir
cles for some time and leaves the Cop
per Range roadbed in almost perfect
condition.

should like to devote much OF it TO
eliminating the "tonsorial artists"
from the field of barberdom; sepa.
rating the tares from the wheat as It
were.
The average "tonsorial artist af-
fects the most atrocious neckwear; (;
dons millionalres vest with a mill
wright's trousers, and puts popular
ideas of garb all at points. He talks
glibly of scandal, horse races and hair
restorer and eventually drives many
a man to whiskers who Is perfectly

Official notice was taken Of il until
the regular meeting of the Houghton

brandt declared that the practice was
not only dangerous. but had come to be
looked upon as somewhat of a nui-
sance.
While other trustees agreed as to the
danger of the practice, 1t is hardly be-

too, of this pleasure II is probable
that at the next meeting, certain hills

signated for coasting and steps will be
taken to prevent accidents. a similar
policy has been tried in Duluth and
found satisfactory and it is thought
that the same will be the case here.
