ONE HOUR ENOUGH TO REPLACE BRIDGE
Old Structure Across Missouri River to Be Succeeded by Modern
 Span on Same Piers.

Omaha, Dec. 23.-The old Union Pacific railroad bridge which spans the Missouri river between Omaha and Council Bluffs, Ta., is to be re- placed by a new one today and the engineers of the company expect to complete the work in about one hour.
 The old bridge will be moved to a false structure just north of it's pres ent location and the new one, which was built on afalSe work of the South will replace it on the old pier.
 The bridges to be moved are 1,722 feet long notincluding the approaches. The old bridge weighs 5,600,000 pounds and the new one is just twice as heavy. Work on the new bridge was begun last May and it's estimated cost is $1, 100000.

And Then Showed His Appreciation by Naming His Heir Kcnesaw Mountain Landis Rubenstein.

Chicago, Dec. 23.-Abra Ru- benstein, an attorney who recently has been involved in difficulties with Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis in the federal court considers today that he had atoned.

Rubenstein erred again The judge cited him for contempt of court and ordered him to jail. The lawyer pleaded for mercy, saying he wished to be home as he was expecting an heir.
 "Rubenstein,' said Judge Landis. 3 i've let people off on all kinds of excuses. They have taken advantage of my synpathies. Now you make good on this excuse"
 Yesterday breathless Rubenstein rushed into the court room and at tempted to push by several bailiffs.
 "There's no reason for all this conlmotion" said a bailiff. "Yes there is," shouted Rubenstein, I've named him, Kenesaw Mountain Ian dis Rubenstein.'
 Say that name again. ordered the judge.
 Rubcnstein did. Judge I.andis called for his hat and coat and ad- journed court.

GETS OPTION AT S9,000
City Will Have Right to Buy National Spring Bed Property to Insure Wid- ening of Lake Street.

Corporation Counsel J. E. Cooper, after consulting with City Engineer Hall, today drew up a formal agree ment which, when signed by the off cials of the National Spring Bed com pany, will give the city six months option to purchase enough of their Lake street property at 5000 to in sure the widening of that thorough fare. The option will probably be ready by Tuesday.
 Pursuant to the action of the com mon council last Wednesday evening, Mayor Quigley conferred with Presi- dent Miner of the Spring Bed com pany about securing an option on this land and the latter stated that his previous offer to accept damages of $9,0OO fixed by the board of compen- satlon and assessment several years ago still holds good.
 At the council meeting several members expressed some doubt as to whether or not the Spring Bed com pany would now be willing to sacri- tlce It's land for this price, since values have increased during the past few years. This question has been dispelled by MT. Miners reneweI of the offer. City officials consider the action of the Spring Bed company in offering this land to the city as q very public spirited act MT. Miner has stated to the mayor that his firm has had an opportunity to sell this land but he declined the offer as he did not want to embarass the cit1 in case it was decided to straighter Lake street.
