Ice Surrounding
the Illinois Central
Bridge Dynamited

The explosions that startled the people
Of Omaha Wednesday night was not. a
bombardment by the Germans OF allies,
but instead the dynamiting OF Ice on the
Missouri river.
For years II has been the annual spring
custom of the Illinois Central to dyna-
mite and break up the ice above and
below the bridge that spans the river at
East Omaha This is done as a precaution
to prevent any possibilities of gorge.
A few sticks of dynamite distributed
above and below the bridge and then
exploded break the ice into small pieces
and II floats away long before the general
breakup occurs.
The Union Pacific, Burlington, Mis-
souri, Pacific and Northwestern are or
ganizing their dynamiting gangs and
quantities OF dynamite are being sent out
along the lines to be used within the next
few days in breaking up the ice in the
streams which the bridges span.
While the ice in the streams out in the
state has not yet broken II begins to
show signs OF weakening and IL the warm
weather continues, II is expected that the
rivers and creeks will be cleared much
earlier than usual.
