last night by Sheriff Mcdonald and

Bridge Destroyed bv Flood

AS climax to three or four
weeks of damage by rain and food
water, last Sunday came the col
lapse of the new reinforced con-
crete bridge across the San Pedro
river about mile from town, on
the Benson-Dragoon road.
The bridge is a complete wreck
falling to the bed of the stream
and breaking up beyond repair.
The flood water. washing into
the east bank, undermined the
abutment pier on that side, and
resulted in the whole structure
falling.
The bridge could have been saved
by the spending of a small pro
portion of the amount of its cost
had the proper steps been taken in
time. The stream cuts into the
bank on the east side, matter that
an attempt was made to remedy
when construction was going on,
but the work was not carried to a
point where the trouble was rem
edied.
Strong representations to the
county authorities that the bridge
was in danger were passed unheed-
ed and nothing effective done to
protect it. Citizens of the COM
munity notified the Board of Sup
ervisors and the County Engineer
that it was in danger, and that by
prompt action it could be saved.
An expenditure of not over five
hundred dollars would have been
sufficient to safeguard the bridge.
by Strengthening the channel and
protecting the piers.
The bridge was big double
arched reinforced concrete struc-
ture. completed about year ago
at cost of $27,8OO.0O, replacing
substantial iron bridge which
the widening river banks made in
adequate. The Tokeka Bridge &
Iron Co., Of Topeka. Kansas. did
the construction.
The destruction of this bridge is
serious handicap to the people of
Pomerene, who are dependent on
Benson as local market and sup
ply point, and also to travellers over
the main county road (Which used
this bridge as a crossing) between
Benson and the state line.

Government Exhibits in France

Three of the four sets of agricu1-
tural exhibits that were sent to
France by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture and exhibited at
American army camps, have been
returned to this country or are en-
route here. One set was left in
France, at the request of Gen. Per-
shing, for further exhibition among
the soldiers.
Department of Agriculture rep
resentatives report that the exhi-
bits excited much interest among
the American soldiers, despite the
dominating interest in the arrival
of sailing orders, and that many
of them probably received new
conception of the possibilities of
American agriculture, as we'll as of
its problems and of how the Fed
eral and State agricultural agen-
cies can aid in their solution, and
that hundreds of veteran, have
thus been able to approach farm
ing with better idea of what they
will have to combat and of how to
do it.
Great interest was manifested in
the exhibit by the French public.
The French attendance became SO
large at one point it was thought
necessary to duplicate the labels in
the French language. French,
British and Belgian agricultural
representatives who visited the ex
hibits asked that they be sent to
their countries for display to civ
i1ians.
There was a continual crowd
Throughout, says a report from
Bordeaux. Hundreds of Ameri-
cans and thousands of French at
tended. The exhibit also was
looked over by many others, in
cluding men from Tunis and AL
geria. While the exhibit was of
much interest to Our soldiers, the
greater interest was evidenced by
the French and English. A NUM-
Der of. American soldiers and two
Frenchmen serving as Interpreters,
the Frenchmen being kept espec-
tally busy with the poultry-section
models, it seemingly being a hard
matter for the French to compre'
the trap nest. However it was fin

ings and measurements were made
to a fare-you-weIl - A number
of Frenchmen expressed the hope
that the French government would
have the United States send over
an exhibit designed to show the
latest kinks in our agricultural
practices. -
At the same place of exhibit the
French visitors were so much in
teresting in the display of the great
American crop, Indian corn, that
they began to pick grains from the
cobs, with the intention of planting

bridge matter is taken from the

county road commission, returned
yesterday from the Douglas district
and also from a trip to the new $50

washed out Sunday by the San

structed the bridge while he, was

was a total loss and reiterated his
charge that an expenditure of $500

when the food threatened would
have saved the structure.

For the first time in the varied
history of the Comstock lode, dia-
mond-drilling is to be utilized as a
modern prospecting device to ex-
plore an enormous area of potential
ore odibes. lying beneath the sntro
tunnel, which level is 1910 feet
re~tically downward from the SUI
face.
In association with a group of big
eastern capitalists, H. l.. Slosson,
Jr., president of the Middle Mines
association, will supervise this gi-
gantic undertaking, which has been
entrusted-as far as the actual
drilling is concerned Ito the same
company which recently completed
exploratory drill holes in the South
African gold mines to depth OF
1000 feet, and successfully brought
up the core intact from tnat great
depth. Actual drilling on The om-
stock will begin during the second
week in October, so President Slos-
SON said yesterday. In an interview
he said:
II am firmly of the belief that
the Comstock has tremendous pos
sibilities in depth, but they mus
be demonstrated at a reasonable
cost, hence this plan.
Strong people in the east have
taken control of the Savage, Chol-
lar and Gould & Curry mines which
mines have prodaced above the
Sutro tunnel (1640 leyeD over $780,
100000. The Best & Belcher is to
cooperate with them in the plan
and the Potosi company has agreed
to exploration proposed.
THE plan will consist of using
the diamond core drill in prospect
ing below the Sutro tunnel, the
drill holes being sunk at an angle
to cut across this entire formation.
No work of any character has been
done between the Sutro tunnel level
and the 2300-foot level, and what
little work was done at the last
named level showed great i'm
provement in the character of the
vein in depth.
