the early part Of 1887 gives the following in

"'The Grant Memorial Bridge

the early part of 1887 gives the following in
teresting account Of the proposed bridge:
THE Grant Memorial Bridge
at Washington.
"a project for commemorating the memory
and fame of the late Gen. Grant and adding
another god attraction to the National Capital
has taken the form of an appeal to Congress
for money enough to build a memorial bridge
across the Potomac, spanning the river from
Observatory Hill to Arlington. Preliminary
steps in this direction were taken by ex-Gov.
Curtin, who introduced a bill into the House
providing for $500 900 with which to begin the
work. Since then Capt. T. W. Symons Of the
Engineer Corps has devoted him1elf to the
project and with the assistance of Messrs.
Smithmeyer and Pelz, architects, has prepared
a plan for consideration. Capt. Symons' plan
provides for a bridge, the towers and abut-
ments of which are to be built entirely Of
granite resting on a foundation Of solid rock.
All the arches and draws are to be of steel.
The total length Of the bridge will be 1850
feet; the central bascule span 160 feet clear
width; main arch spans 240 feet clear width,
and small spans 120 feet; carriage-way 40 feet
wide; sidewalks, 10 feet wide each.
The bridge is to start from about the level
Of the streets on the Washington side from
point near the termination Of New York
avenue, across Analostan Island in the Potomac,
and on the Arlington side connect with the
roads leading off into Virginia. The formation
of the land is such on both sides that the ap-
proaches to the bridge will be perfectly level.
and not up a steep embanknent, as is often the
case. The draw will be IS feet above the level
Of the water, allowing the passage of steam
boats and small sailing vessels without OPEN
ing and when opened the two sections will fit
in between the hanking towers on each side,
so as to be concealed from view and at the
same time be shielded from injury by the
spars of passing vessels. The towers will af-
ford ample room for several large halls over
the arches, which can be appropriately utilized
places of desposit for the Grant memorials.
The two valves Of the draw, which is to be con-
structed on the bascule plan, are designed to
be raised by hydraulic pressure the machinery

for which can either be located on shore or in
one of the towers. The cost OF the memorial
bridge, according to the plans, will be
900 900, and it is proposed to have it finished
in time for dedication on the occasion Of the
400th anniversary Of the discovery of America.
in 1892"
AS stated the cost of the bridge was to be
more than 81 600 900, and when We compare
the cost of labor and material at that date with
the present scale of wages we can easily see
this was to be very fine structure; at least
the design is a very pleasing one and probably
more attractive than the bridge as finally built.
DACK in 1902 the matter Of placing a me-
Z = mortal bridge on the Potomac was discussed
at one of the meetings of the Association of
Oldest Inhabitants. At that time James Crog
gon, for many years connected with The Star,
said that the matter had been agitated for al
most a century 1T is known" he said, that
President Thomas Jefferson favored the project
and that one Of the earliest speeches Of Henry
Clay in Congress was in behalf Of an appro-
priation for that purpose. In the memoirs Of
Col. w. w. Seaton," continued Mr. CrOggon,
"is to be found letter of Col. G. w. P. Custis
asking Mr.. Seaton to favor in the Daily Intel
Ggencer the project of building bridge on the
lines suggested by Mr.. Jefferson and stating
that it would touch the Arlington tract and
that the land necessary for the abutments and
approaches would cost nothing

Capitol Bills Red Headed Woman with Jean
 Harlow Soon

Red Headed Woman" comes to the screen with Jean Harlow, her famous platinum blonde h air changed to a flaming red, in the title role.
 Adapted by Anita Loos from Katherine Brush's novel of the same name, the photoplay, to be seen in the near future at the Capitol theatre is a study in, sel- fishness, in the havoc a woman can bring on herself and those around her by making her per sonal desires her only law and goal. Tn bringing the novel to the screen Miss Loos, as adapter, saw fit to end the story in her peculiar comedy strain and the film gains in entertainment value through this sacrifice of grim reality.
 Besides Miss Harlow, the cast includes Chester Morris, who has the male lead. Lewis Stone, Leila HyaHs, Una Merkel, Henry Ste- phenson, May Robson, Charles Boyer and Harvey Clark.

complete cure in marriage. Now they are bored
