HAssAYAMPA TO BE
BRIDGED AT oNCI

a
Constructing Engineer II. NJ. Lewis
arrived from the end Of the territor
ial highway near Maxton yesterday.
and perfected arrangements for Tn,
building Of the new wooden bridge
across the IIassayampa east Of the
county highway, awarding the con
tract TO Branncn & Sauer, Of this
city. Mr.. Sauer will leave today to
begin the work, and IL is expected
that the structure will be ready for
traffic inside Of two weeks.
The span will be over so feet long,
with width OF 10 feet, and will be
used temporarily, or until weather
conditions permit the building OF the
concrete bridge, which is called for
in the original plans. Mr.. Lewis
stated that with the new bridge in
commission the trouble experienced
for some time in traffic being com.
PEELED TO follow a declivitous route
will he eliminated. He welcomes this
improvement more than any one, but
the heavy rock work along the old
county grade has made IL impractic.

With the completion Of the new
grade splendid roadway will be
available from Prescott 20 Lutte vii.
sons place in Crook Canyon, and in
few weeks more the vcnezia mine
can be reached.
In speaking Of general conditions
on the highway, he stated that the
long duration Of cold weather has
necessitated the abandoning Of work
where dirt only is TO be handled as
the ground is frozen solid three feet
deep. Rock work only is being per.
formed over about two and one. half
miles Of the grade from Lutte vii.
sons TO beyond the venezia, and that
section should he open to traffic by
the first Of next month.
Contractor Trenberth has moved all
his Verde valley outfits to Silver
Mountain, with which are combined
those which have been working In
the Maxton country for several weeks.
Altogether the road situation is fay.
orable and considering the cold wealth.
cr Of the past month, satisfactory
progress has been made on the high.
way. Prescott and Phoenix will be
connected up by summer so that the
people Of the two cities as well as all
comers may enjoy n scenic highway
that has few superiors for utility and
beauty.

iieved the intensity Of the situation
by informing the firemen that he

his mother.
In his precoeious antics he dug away
NJ the combination until an opening
was effected, and In his curiosity
took good grip on the lever, when

He stated afterward that the glass
covering, he believed, was intended to
give the mail carrier a chance to see
IL there were any letters TO be taken
out. while the lever was to give due
warning that the carrier was wanted

DANES FRIENDLY TO
THE UNITED STATES

COPENHAGEN. Den. Jan. 2. CO.,
That the Danes have q warm SPOT II
their hearts for the United States wa
proved during the recent lccturin,
trip which the American Minister. DIR
Maurice Egan, made 10 several pro

At Odense, on the Island Of Funen.
where he lectured on American litcra.

and the members Of the municipality.
The lecture was closed by the audi.
encc singing the Danish national an.
them and the "star Spangled Ban.

Tor the United States. The lecture
was followed by banquet in the
ministers honor, at which 300 guests
drink toast to President Taft.
a repetition Of this reception was
given Mt svenborg, where DR.. Egan
was received by Mayor Schmidt.
The tour Of the American minister
has done much 10 remove the feeling
OF distrust entertained In some provin.
cial cities because of rumors Of Amer.
lean aggressions in the Danish West
Indian Islands. Although there il
much opposition 20 the proposed sale
OF the islands, which several journals
have suggested, there Is no feeling of
bitterness against tho United States.
The opposition Is almost entirely econ.
omic, Ms IL is believed that the open.

Life Of the Bicycle.

The bicycle craze as craze is his
tory printed and put away upon the
dusty shelves. But bicycle popular
ity is still a very lively thing, a long
way from the time when the services
Of the obituary writer are suggested.
There are not SO many factories as
there were in the nineties, when bicy-
cles were masters Of the road, but the
factories which have survived turn
out more wheels in given time than
any did in the nineties, turn them out
better, their managers declare, and
market them at one-fourth the old
price. improvements have been made
and by the standardizing Of parts
costs have been cut down amazingly.
The best thing about the bicycle today
Is that 1T is owned by those who need
1t most-the wage-earner, the messen-
ger boy, the schoolboy and the school
teacher. AS an engine Of peril 1t has
been utterly eclipsed, but as a cheap
and an exceedingly handy vehicle the
motor car can never hope to rival it.
1t will always have a place strictly
utilitarian with adults and pleasure
for youngsters. If aeroplanes become
as easy to run as sewing machines,
the same thing cannot be said for the
utomobile.-Toledo Blade.
