Covered Bridge to Yield
to Progress on Highways
ZumbrOta Structure, SO Years Old,
Last of Type in State, Is Sound
But Obsolete

Minnesota's only covered bridge,
located at Zumbrota, will give way
to the march of progress this sum-
mer when new structure is erect
ed in connection with the grading
and relocation of trunk highway
No. SO, between that city and Red
Wing. Bids on tht new bridge over
the Zumbro river, seven other new
bridges, and seven bridge widening
jobs, will be opened April 5, Com
missioner c. M. Babeock announces.
The wooden covered bridge at
Zumbrota was built in 1869. It was
built of selected white oak timbers
on a good foundation, doweled with
oak pins, and was well maintained
by the municipality until the state
took it over as part of temporary
trunk highway No. So in 1921. Since
then it has had regular mainen-
ance by the state. The bridge is as
sound as when new, but it is wide
enough for only one lane of traf-
fic, and loads have been restricted
to six tons. The new bridge, a
steel truss $50 feet long, will be
wide enough for three lanes of
traffic.
The list of proposed bridges fol-
lows:
T. H. No. Sat Wabasha, bridge
No. $3.50, three spans, total length
22O feet, railroad overhead.
T. H. No. 6-North of Beltrami,
bridge No. 1856, length 20 feet, and
bridge No. 1857, length 16 feet,
widening jobs.

recognized as the work of the
composer of Faust" and
Romeo and Juliet"
Saint-Saens wrote: when,
in the far distant future, the
operas of Gounod shall have
been received into the dusty
sanctuaries of the Libraries, the
Redemption" and "Morset
Vita" will still endure.
The broad phrases of these
works reach such heights, in
some passages. as to give an
impression of veritable grand
eur. But although these two
works are solidly powerful,
Gounod's innate sense of mel
ody is so strong that an inim-
liable grace and lightness of
texture pervades them, which
reminds us that throughout his
life the composer of "Redemp-
ton" was a profound admirer
of Mozart.
Gounod's first thought on
writing a musical work on the
subject of Redemption occurred
to him in 1867, while at Rome.
He wrote the words that year
and two fragments of the mus
is, the impressive March to
Calvary and the instrumental
introduction to the third part
of the oratorio. Twelve years
afterwards, while in England
during the France-Prussian
war, he finished the work for
presentation at the Birmingham
festival.
AS the composer himself
states in a preface to the score,
this work undertakes to set
forth and enlarge upon the
three great facts upon which
depends the existence of the
Christian church: CD The Pas
sion and Death of the Saviour
co His life on earth from His
Resurrection to His Ascension,
and 90 The spread of Chris
tianity in the world through
the mission of the Apostles. An
ambitious program, surely, and
one which for sheer magnitude
of conception, might tax the
resources of the greatest of the
masters.
That Gounod has succeeded
in providing music for so gi-
gantic a program of the requir-
ed almost unimaginable pro-
fundity and power may be
doubted; but that he has left
us a work of imposing grandeur
unfailing melodic interest, and
utter sincerity of conception,
no one can doubt who has once
heard the tremendous March
to Calvary" episode, the NOV
ing From Thy Love as a Faith
err" the vigorous scene of "The
Two Thieves" the majestic
unfold Ye Portals" and the
stirring final chorus. -@

Director of the Division of

Conservation of the State Of
Minnesota.
There appears to be some misun-
relative to spearing of
[sh and the use of artificial lights
or this purpose. Under date OF
darch 7 the Game and Fish de-
'artment sent the following letter
o all wardens which should clean
ID the situation in the minds of the
shermen:
st. Paul, March Z, 1882
To All Game Wardens:
We have received a number
of inquiries recently in regard
to the use of artificial lights
in spearing fish. Apparently
there has been considerable
misunderstanding of the law,
due to the fact that while
Mason's Minnesota statutes OF
1927, Section 5499, was amend
ed by Laws 1929, Chapter AIT,
so as to absolutely prohibit
the use of artificial lights in
taking fish of any kind in any
manner, at the same time the
already existing provisions OF
sections 556S and 5574, permit
ting the use of artificial lights
in spearing fish in certain
cases, were left on the statute
books.
The recent legislature has
now remedied the difficulty by
Chapter 1923, Laws 1881, approx
ed April "a, 1881. In this con-
nection it should be noted that
the 1881 amendment limits the
spearing of fish to spearing
through the ice between De-
cember 1st and February LIST,
following, both inclusive.
Except as to bullheads in
certain waters in Cass and Itas-
ca Counties. governed by Laws
1927, Chapter 322, as amended
by Laws 1929, Chapter 315, the
spearing of fish at any other
time is now unlawful and it is
also unlawful to spear fish at
any time in open water, even
during the time when spearing
through the ice is permitted.
All game wardens are here
by notified to issue instructions
in accordance with the forego-
ing so that there may be no
further confusion in regard to
the operation of the law in
question.
Very truly yours,
Louis Enstrom,
Deputy Director,
Division of Game and Fish.

smelling Of the bizarre sorts Of food that the
Chinese seem to enjoy.
Ahead Of them in the alleyway they heard
the soft pit-pat of slippered feet. Suddenly the
sound ceased.
Kent, uncertain, halted. His companion was
breathless; practically painting. Above the
sound he heard the muffled noise from within
the club. 1t was about time for the cops to
arrive, and Kent judged that the lady was not
the sort to enjoy scandal. Kent had sus-
picion that she was princess or something
incognito. At any rate, by right Of appearance.
They hadn't proceeded far in the exit enter
prise when they had proof of the malfeasant
trend in the individual of the Chinese race.
There was simply mufhed Oriental COM
mand, and the prod Of something into Kent's
short-ribs. Kent suspected that it might be a
rather well-sharpened knife. In that, he sus-
pected correctly.
Mr.. Nicholson was buoyed by the thought
that he had by his side extremely personable
young lady. young lady whose friendship
and esteem he found highly desirable; a young
lady before whose liquid eyes valor was the
thing. All this of course, flashed through his
brain at one fell swoop.
It was with the second fell swoop that he
aimed at the point of the Chinese chin with a
brief, sharp right. The blow was eloquent with
zeal and the Chinaman apparently was unac-
customed to Occidental fists, for he dropped
with gurgle and hit his head a resounding
thump on the pathway. The latter was largely
responsible for his lack of further participation
in the affairs of the evening.
Kent was not sure that there were not
Oriental accomplices lurking about, but he
Immediately decided to take chance and flee.
Tarrying might incite a permanent residence
in some of those spidery dungeons that he had
heard were plentifuly scattered about beneath
Chinatown.
1t may be mentioned here that young Mr..
Nicholson had not, up to this point, heard the
voice of Melissa, save in a whispered mono
syllable. Hence it was with something of
start that he heard her speak, when the perils

Kent, being a superior young man, realized
that in this instance brain was the thing.

guns in darkened rooms. He had been close
