THE CASSELMAN BRIDGE
Century-Oid GarrettCOunty StruC-
ture, Once the Largest of It's
Kind in the World.

The Baltimore News of Monday last
contained the following concerning the
old stone bridge near Grantsville:
One of the show places on the old
National pike is the stone bridge at the
Little Crossing, near Grantsville, Gar
rett county, II miles west of Frost
burg. The centennial of the compile
ton of this Structure, which at the
time was the largest single-arch bridge
in the world, has just been passed. The
span is SO feet wide and the segment
of the arch takes in 12O degrees. The
contract for the erection of the struc
ture was made September 4, 1913, be-
tween Abraham Keens, John Bryson
and David Shrlver, the latter on the
part of the United States. David
Shriyer was a noted engineer Of his
day. was an uncle of Joseph Shriver.
the grandfather Of Henry Shriver,
president of the First National Bank,
Cumberland, and Robert S. Shriver, of
Baltimore and Westminster. It was
thought at the time the bridge was com
pleted that the arch would not hold,
and it was predicted that it would col
lapse when the false work was remov-
ed. Mr.. Shriver, to escape humiliation
Should the structure fall, with a few
friends knocked out the key holding
the falsework at midnight The arch
remained, and to This day there has not
been the least sign of deterioration.
The arch is unusually high. Il is the
wonder Of the many tourists who
traverse the National pike. The hump
in the middle of the bridge conceaIs
the approach OF automobiles on either
side, which gives the bridge an ele-
ment of danger. In passing over the
hump the occupant of an automobile
experiences q sensation similar to that
of taking a sudden dig on a roller
coaster. 1t was said that the arch was
made extremely high to permit boats to
pass under when the Chesapeake ard
Ohio canal was cut to the Ohio river.

the extreme cold caused both the inlet
and outlet to freeze. With the fire well
under way steam became generated and
pressure sufficient to blow the metal and
stove to pieces resulted, the explosion
being of such intensity that the noise
was heard at considerable distance from
the home. Fire from the stove was
scattered in many directions in the
kitchen and the floor was on fire in a
number Of places but was extingushed
without doing any serious damage.
Jus. as the explosion took place Mrs.
helbig was approaching the stove and
large piece of the metal passed close
to her face which had it struck her

West VIRGINIA Must Paw.

In the Supreme Court Of the United
States Monday the request OF Attorney
General Pollard of Virginia for permis-
sion to file mandamus seeking to COM
pei the State of West Virginia to pay 10
Virginia $l4 600, 600, the former State 5
share of commonwealth bonds issued
when the two states were one, was
granted. Judgment for the amount in
controversy was given in favor of the
cid State by the Supreme Court two or
more years ago, but West Virginia has
taken no steps to pay it. The writ of
mandamus is brought against the West
Virginia Legislature and would compel
that body to take action at the present
session to pay the money. A rule was
returned bringing the case before the
Court March 9th.

WORST BLIZZARD
IN MANY YEARS
Swept Over This Section of Coun-
try Sunday and Monday.

Beginning on last Friday, when a
storm from the northwest struck over
this section of the country, bringing
with it zero and below weather. Garrett
county has experienced within the past
week one of the worst billiards in many
years.
Friday was bleak, cold day, with
the wind blowing a hurricane, followed
on Saturday by weather of a more Sc
we're nature with the thermometer at
and below the zero mark. Sunday
brought some relief, the mercury
mounting as high as "a degrees at
O'Clock in the afternoon. About seven
O'Clock snow storm accompanied by
probably the highest wind experienced
here in the winter time, swept down
over the country binding those who
were compelled to be out. The wind
was so strong and the snow being swept
before it obliterated objects from view
half way across the street. The storm
kept up the entire night and on Mon
day various thermometers registered
from 10 to IS degrees below zero. Mon
day the mercury failed to climb above
the zero mark until about nine o'clock
in the evening when it showed a rise to
two degrees above. With the cessation
Of the wind toward daylight Tuesday
the weather moderated very percept-
IDLY. Tuesday afternoon the reading
Of the thermometer showed twenty
five above and the blizzard of 1917 be-
came matter of history.
During the storm period from Friday
until Tuesday morning plumbers had all
they possibly could do in the way of
making repairs to frozen and bursted
water pipes, some househoIders eX-
periencing considerable monetary loss
as result of the freeze. Fortunately
the gas pressure during all the days
was good, although not up to normal,
and this of itself prevented many from
suffering with the intense cold.

WRECK ON CRELLIN R. z.
Engineer Fulk Had Narrow Is
cape When Cab Was
Ripped Off.

Sunday evening about 100 o'clock
when the storm which struck this sec
tion earlier in the day was raging
furiously, an engine on the Crellin rail-
road to which was attached two carr of
coal for use at Shaffer, the southern
terminus of the road, colided with a
box car which had been blown from a
siding near Silver Knob so that ror-
tion Of the car projected over on the
man track. The locomotive was yum
ing backward at the time. The storm
being OF SUCH intensity that it was i'm
possible to see, the collision came with
out warning. The cab of the engine
was torn off and the engineer, Mr..
George Fulk was painfully injured about
the legs and suffered some minor
bruises about his body. His fireman,
Mr. Irving Nine, escaped unhurt. The
injured man was taken from the point
OF the collision to his farm, distance
of about two miles, where he was at
tended by DR.. McComas.
After the accident occurred another
engine and crew was sent out from
CrellIn which took the damaged loco
motive and the cars on to Shaffer the
same night.
