R. R. Mcintyre Offers Culverts of Former Railroad For Proposed
 Highway in Grant County.

Sheridan, July 19.-R. R. Mcintyre, in Pine Bluff, who purchased the Pine Bluff, Sheridan and Southerin railroad in this county some months ago, and then sold the steel to a Louisiana man, who shipped it away, has expressed willingness to donate free>of charge, to the proposed Road District from Sheridan to Saline rlv- CT, south, all bridges and culverts on the cid road-bed as we'll as free right-of-way for the new road.
 The proposed Road District is pc titioned for by Wm. R. Rhodes and others, of Erin, and the petition will be acted upon by County Judge Wad- dell, on July 25.
 The route of the proposed road runs from Sheridan to Erin (Millers- ville) over the present road, but from Millersville to Saline river it will fol- low the road-bed of the old Pine Bluff, Sheridan and Southern rail- road. This fact will make it possible to use the old railroad bridges and culverts, which are said to be in fair conditi>n, and to need but little re- pair to make them first-class. If the District should be organized, and should Mir. McIntyre's offer be accept. ed, it is estimated that it will save the District at least twenty thousand dollars.
