BIG BRIDGE WILL Be
COMPLETED MARCH |.
This Will Complete First Big
Loop of the System Out
Through Polk County.
BIG LIFT IS NEARLY DONE
Train Service Not Yet Arranged, But
1t VIII Be First-Class and Trains
VIII BE Numerous.
BIG LIFT is NEARLY DONE

BY the first Of next month, provid-
ing there are no accidents or unexpect-
ed delays, the new steel railroad
bridge being constructed over the Will
lamette river at the foot Of Union
street will be completed, and traffic
operations from the main line of the
Southern Pacific through Salem to
branch lines in Polk county will be in
augurated.
The final work is now being done on
the ponderous lift, and that section
is speedily being harnessed to some
powerful machinery which will raise
the span for the passing steamers
The lifting apparatus is on the ground
and will be installed just as soon as
the tall, steel structure supporting the
great sheaves are riveted together
Men were busy yesterday stringing the
steel ropes which are to lift the span
and the power station building is be-
ing erected in the center and top Of
the lift. The trestle connecting the
west shore with the steel bridge is
now completed, and the remaining
block Of railroad to be constructed
connecting up the Union street line
with the Salem end Of the bridge will
be in shape for traffic within the next
few days.
Forms Big Loop.
The Portland, Eugene & Eastern Co.
will soon have in operation one large
loop of its railroad, 1t has connected
its Union street line with the main
line of the Southern Pacific on 10Th
street. The line then crosses the riv-
er and makes a wide circuit In Polk
county to Corvallis, where 1t again
crosses the river to Albany and con-
meets with the S. p. Main line at that
place.
Just what service will be started out
with over the new bridge has not been
definitely ascertained as yet but It is
understood that the people of West sa-
lem will soon have an adequate rail-
road communication with this CITY,
while the entire West Side will soon
be provided with a complete freight
and passenger service directly to Port
land via Salem to the main line Of the
Southern Pacific.

H0LIDAYING IN
THE WINTER
AN IMMENSE AMOUNT OF MONEY
SPENT BY WESTERN CANADi-
ANS IN WINTER SEASON.

"An unusually large number Of
Western Canada people are leaving
Or preparing to leave to spend the
Winter in California"
The above item OF news was clip
ped from a Western Canada paper
early in December. In the same paper
were items Of news conveying the in
~telligence that hundreds of Western
Canadians were also taking a trip
abroad, spending the Christmas sea-
son at home" as they yet term the
old land. The scandinavian element
participated largely in the holiday
business of the railroads and the
steamships, but they all had return
tickets. Early in December the east
bound trains and boats were loaded,
and an estimate furnished by the rail
road people gave upwards of twelve
thousand as the number who would
make the Christmas holiday visit
abroad. This does not mean that these
people are leaving to avoid the cold
ness of the winter, nor for any eli
matte conditions whatever. They
rave come out to Canada and nave
done so well that they can afford the
hundred and fifty or two hundred dol
lars or more that It takes to carry
them across and back, When they
came to Canada they did not have
that much money ali told, but now
they are wealthy and on their return
will bring some of their friends with
them.
Then there are those, too, who on
their wheat farms have made sufIi-
cient money that they can afford to
take a holiday. and what better winter
h~olidaying ground could they have
than California? How many in other
farming districts of the continent
could afford the money and the time
that these people can?-Advertise'

RADIUM WILL SOFTEN THE

retain their alertness and sprightli-

of ST. Bartholomew's hospital, Lon

In young children the blood pres
sure is very low and the arteries are
elastic. The pressure gradually in
creases until in the young, healthy
adult it is one-third greater than in
the child. To meet this increase o.
pressure the arteries become stron

power for a variable period.

and men who have devoted themselves
immoderately to athletics are likely to
shorten their lives in this way.
A sedentary life and over eating
also produces arterial decay and limit

Smoking or the free consumption of
alcohol will wear out the vessels and
bring on old age. The elixir of youth
should be something that would res

was asserted by DR.. Saubermann of
Berlin in a lecture before the Roent-

physician said that a minute speck of
radium placed in an earthenware re-
