Covered Bridges
Still Remain
in State
Indiana Historical Bulletin
Discusses Old Wooden
Structures.

''In spite OF the fact that many
of the old covered bridges in In
diana are being replaced by modern
steel concrete structures. more than
100 of them remain in use," it is
pointed out in the January bulletin
Of the Indiana historical bureau.
Although the covered bridge was
not peculiar to Indiana, it is believed
that more Of them were erected in
Indiana than in any other States of
the union. because Of the plentiful
supply of timber here in the
preceding century.
First In 1884
1t is belieyed that the States first
covered bridge was one built at Dub
lin in 1884. which was razed several
years ago and replaced by a modern
steel structure. The abutment stone
in the old Dublin bridge was Of Bed
ford limestone. the supposition being
that it was hauled overland $50 miles
by oxen, since there were no rail-
roads at that time.
Two OF the best preserved wooden
covered bridges in, the State happen
to be located in two of the most
thriving smaller cities. Connersville
and Rushville.
Paths for Pedestrians
The Rushville bridge is Of a Pc
culiar type. having fenced-in path
ways on each side for pedestrians.
One of the longest covered bridges
in the State is at Metamora, a small
town in the same section of the
State.
Two years ago a modern structure
was erected at Patoka, on the Evans
ville-Vincennes road, to replace a
wooden bridge that had stood for
more than seventy years. From time
to time other structures that have
stood as landmarks will give way to
the lighter =. and stronger steel
bridges, until the covered bridge win
be thing Of the past.

.SWEETSER MEETS
SIMPSON TODAY
FOR The TITLE
(By Dispatch A. P. wire)

MUIRFIELD, Scotland, May 28.-Jess
Sweetser of New York, former Ameri-
can fnter- collegiate and amateur
champion, and A. F. Simpson of Scott
land, meet tomorrow in the finals Of
the BRITISH amateur golf champion,
ship.
When the semi-finals of the tour
nament started today expectation was
here that Bobby Jones, American
champion, after his magnificent vic
tory Thursday over Robert Harriss,
present British title-holder most like
ly would make Americas bid tomor-
row in the classic final tilt, with the
possibility of an ll-American clash
if Sweetser also survived.
Bobby passed out of the picture in
the mornings sixth round play. He
was defeated 4 and by A. Jameson,
Jr,, youthful Scotch novice in interna-
tinal golf Sweetser former Yale
university star, won in the morning
two lip, from Robert Scott, Jr., and
played sterling golf in the, afternoon
against his Irish opponent, W. CT
Brownlow, winning thrilling 21-hole
saruggle. q
Sweetser accomplished this by steado
mess ons the extra holes after falter-
ing somewhat at the close Of the. reg
uIation period.
Meanwhile, the setting for the finals
had been rounded out by Brownlow's
victory of w A. Murry of West Hull
and the success of A. F. Simpson, sterl-
ing highland youth, over G. c. Killey
Of Luddingston in the morning round.'
This brought Simpson against jamie
son in purely British half of the
semi finals. Jameson, likely youth,
but not sufficiently seasoned to stand
thq strain Of long championship
tournament, went down 2 and |.
Jones' defeat not only was hard
blow to his American followers, but
was regretted. Last night Bobby
caught cold and this morning mas
seur worked for an hour to remove
a slight stiffness in his neck. When
he started the round he said that he
felt fine, but the phenomenal strokes
of Thursday simply would not come.
