PILES BEING DRIVEN FOR NEW S00 BRIDGE Will Take Eight Days to Complete the Work—River Bottom Covered With Old Logs. Work was started on the Soo bridge across the Mississipp1 Mon- day and today the piles had been driven to the middle of the chan- nel. The work is being superin- tended by Assistant Burns and ke says that it will take about eight days to put in all the piling neces- sary to carry the superstructure of the bridge. The bridge is being built but a foot or two fromthe M. & L so that a scow and donkey engine could not be used to drive the piling. Instead, the bridge builders have erected a pile driver and the weight is hauled up by horse power. The weight weighs 2800 pounds and is solid irons Some difficulty has been found in getting the timbers into the river bed as the bridge is located on the site of the old saw mills. The bot- tom of the river at this point is covered with old logs and pieces of timbers. Four men spent four hours this morning on the river bottom taking out the water soaked logs. ‘T'he river bed is solid sand and it takes quite a force to drive in the piles. George M. Huss, the division engineer is in Duluth on a court case and has taken Harry Funston, his assistant, with him. Resident Engin- eer Birdsell is in Cohasset so that the Soo offices here are temporarily closed. No Plans for Governor. No arrangements have been made for a reception for the governor and his party when they arrive here Saturday afternoon. The Commer- cial club met this afternoon and it was suggested that all be taken to Buena Vista for supper but no action was taken because some thought that as election time is approaching, the governor might want to stay in the city and meet the people. BSeveral of the local politicans will go down to Cass Lake on the noon train and meet the governor. | BIRTHS AND DEATHS I Ford McGregor, the nine year old son of Mr, and Mrs. E. C.
