 pR0JECT REVIVE
Rock Island Bridge at NJ mp&'s M8y Also Bring Highway From Mem-
 phis to Little Rock.

Forrest City, Ark, Jan. 2o.-As d result of the proposed Rock Island bridge at Memphis and the outlook of it being made wagon, foot and gen. eral traffic as well as a ra lroad bridge intere st is revived in the old military road project, which WIS agitated lasr summer and fall. This road recently was made possible in good weather, and the feasibility of it's being made a permanent Ink in a highway from Memphis to Little Rock was clearly shown. However, the cold weather stopped the work on the road.
 'Crittenden county people are mak- ing tremendous efforts to push through the bridge proposition. They ars aided by Congressman Bruce M:,- con, of this district, who with MT. Me- Kellsr, the Tennessee congressman, has charge of the bill in Congre ss. T-,e new bridge will furn' sh an easy way of crossing the river, and will do much toward developing this section of Arkansas. It seems to be up to St. Francis county to do her share to- wards this developms mt by building her part of this highway.

THAT SAFE.

He was an ancient mariner Who'd sailed o'er many a sea; By thy grey beard and glittering eye ''Wlhyfore stopp'st Thou me-" "There was safe," he made reply And madly bent his breast;
 stood, enchanted by his words, I need must hear the rest. "On Walnut street, near to Second It's lain for many a. year That they may yet remove 1t I fear! fear! I fear! Full forty years I've sailed the sAs An outcast and walf. Still all my thoughts have been Or
 it--
 The safe, the safe, the safe. NIethinks it one time held The fundf For cleaning streets and such;' And as they gleaned the taxes In It crowded over much, Did burst the hole within the top' Tue funds did then "lose out, The City Beautiful will kno" The safe I rave about"
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1912-01-21

Then laughed l loud, "Oh, Mariner, Sail on for forty more. And visit ancient Egypt, Then Africa's torrid shore; Nor let your heart be torn with grief Tn which We cannot share Sail on! and know when you return The safe will still be there. We've plead with City Fathers To have it hauled away. The City Eng .neet did say "Tbe first real rainy day
 I'll take my cams and wagon, No longer shall tt stay!" Then Nature, ill her kindness, To make it good and wet, Has sent the rain for 20 days The safe remainafh yet! And like a lonely sentinel (EmbelItsbed by tin cans) It seems to guard the classic ruins That to the westward stands. Now when I gaze upon these ruins It thrills me through and through, To tfink the good, the burning good A little match might do" The mariner seemed more composed Not to make hard his task, But just to find the length of time These question I did ask. How many years has it been there Now tell me if you can.'' He only gazed in wild-eyed grief, Quoth be, How old is Ann?" Stay, stay" I said, ".How long Las
