THE SANTEE BRIDGE
WILL BE BUILT

1t now looks as if the Santee bridge
at Pinckneys landing is almost an
assured fact. In talking to Senator
Wideman and Representative Sprott
they tell us that they have introduced
a bill to bond the county for 100000
for road and bridge work. The idea
is tc spend $150,000 On the Santee
bridge, Sumter county will put up
100000 and Orangeburg county $780,
900, making a total of 100000 that
the bridge and approachments will
cost. 1t will be a toll bridge and each
county will receive their pro-rata
share Of receipts. Clarendon will have
$250,0 900 left to put on other roads
and bridges, which will be Of great
benefit. From what we gather this
bridge will be under the supervision
of bridge commission, just as the
court house was built. In our opin-
ion, this is the most progressive move
ever made for Clarendon county.
When the work is completed we will
then be in close touch with part Of
the State that we know nothing about
and at the same time. have always
lived in close proximity with This
bridge will be Il paying investment,
and in few years the toll will pay
off the bonds. and there should be
nearly enough revenue then from this
source to finance the county. Sena-
tor Dennis of Berkeley has bill
new to float $1,000,O0O bend issue to
build bridge at Murray's landing in
williamsburg county over the Santee,
but it matters not whether he gets
his bill through or not, we can not
afford to let the opportunity of Clar-
cndon having bridge across this
river go by. And too. Pinckney's
landing is the most logical place, and
would benefit more people. even if
there were no great revenue to anti
cipatc from the project.

ROBBER WORKS,
AND WORKS FAST
Doings Keep Police on Jump
for Hours.

A hoIdup man worked and worked fast
early this morning, keeping on the jump
FOR hours, and finally escaped.
The man Is believed TO be the per
son who operated IN the north part OF
the city a few nights ago.
Two holdups had occurred IN rapid
succession and the police were on their
way to investigate the second when they
saw a man run out Of an alley into Il
linois street between Pratt and st. Clair.
The police automobile was brought
10 sudden stoV, but the car had passed
him By 100 feet.
They ran back but the man made no
effort to esca0e and was glad TO see
them.

explained. "A man covered me with an
automatic pistol and forced me into the
eiley. where he searched me and thon
ordered me to walk ont Of the alley
and not look back"
SAW sHADOWY
FORM IN FLIGHT.
The police looked east through the
alley and saw a shadowy form run
south on Superior street.
They searched but the man had disap-

The man robbed was Louis J. Arata.

He said the man searched him and
took a small sum of money and a money
order from his pocket, but returned the
money order.
The robber described by Arata is be
lieved to be the same who committed
two other holdups Just before robbing
the attorney.
The first of these robberies occurred at
o'clock when the thief, who was not
masked at that time, halted J. c. Fisher
40 North Pennsylvania street. IN the
rear Of the Second Presbyterian church
Fisher was covered with an automatic
pistol and ordered to walk on to the
lawn of the house just north Of the
church, where the robber kept him COW
