The contract does not call for completion of the bridge until Jan. 1, 1919, but it is about 30 per cent. complete now. The bridge will be 1500 feet in length, consisting of four spans and a lift. The two west spans, each 327 feet in length, are now complete and the false work and floor system of the east span is in place. With the completion of the spans will follow the installation of the huge lift and then come the finishing details. The lift span is 212 feet and when in’ place the 1,000 ton device will be easily operated by electricity. It is the latest, up-to-the-minate devi roliing on pins ang differing in many respects from other jobs on which the American Bridge company engineers have been employed.

Chelsea Parade Grass Cut. The selectmen had the grass on the Chelsea parade cut on Saturday and pretty spot look Mond: making thi: neat, tidy and inviting. largest in the United States. For all raiiroad purposes, it will answer for a century of travel, in the opinion of the engineers, and will bear six times the weight of the bridze which it supersedes. The new bridge is so de- signed that it will bear the weight of the largest engines that have so far been constructed, and on the double tracks two of these big engines can stand or run side by side, each bearing §0,000 to every five feet. The present force of labor at the bridge numbers 85 men, exclusive of the supervisors, and the entire force is employed 83 hours per week. Be- capse of the number of hours put in at hard, and, in some parts, dangerous labor, there is some complaint, but the employes of the American Bridge company have always been classed as loyal to the courteous supervisors, and the latter say that is one of the prin- cipal factors on big jobs. The masonry part of the structure was complete a little over a vear ago, §0 when the American Bridge com- pany engineers started in on the con- tract about May 1 the only delay to be encountered was in the shipment of material. In all about 6,000 tons of steel is required in the job. in addi- tion to thousands of tons of bolts. 1d 1d to HAS DELUSION HE IS TO BE HUNG by Sergeant Nicholas Spellman.

During the next two weeks the lov- ers of light harness racing in this vicinity will be counting the days un- til the call for the first race on Labar day, the opening day of the New Lon- don’ county fair at Norwich, Conn. Charlie Chapman has been hard at work getting the track at its best, with the result that the track, which has always been considereq fast, is better and faster than it *has ever been. With the filling of the early closing races, the 2.20 pace and the 2.18 trot, and the fact that Dr. L. J. Kiernan of Goshen, the home of the light har- ness racing game, is to e the starter interest is being shown by the horse lovers. Radiant. owned by H. L. Handy of Springfield, Mass., entered in the 2.18 trot, won first money at Worcester, Mass., Aug. 1st, in the 2.19 trot, best time 1-4, ang it took six heats to decide the race. Oscar Watts, own- ed by D. E. Burnham of New York city, another entry in the same race, won_first money Aug. 2, at Monroe, N. Y. This horse was trained and driven by Fred Hyde of Hartford, who is well known in Norwich. Oscar Watts is rated as a 210 and better mile track trotter by those who best know him. He won first money, $1,000 purse, at Springfield, July 10, and aiso first money July 17th -t Northampton in the 2.20 trot. His owner deserves every honor, as he has always in- structed Trainer Hyde to take his own time and race him only when he was ready, and so he is a finished trotter, having had a thorough training at the hands of a master trainer. Princess Bingen is another entry in the 2.18 trot, owned by C. W. Lasell, ‘Whitinsville, Mass., that will make the affair more interesting. She won fourth money at Monroe, N. Y., July 31, in the 2.24 class. This horse is a new one and made a splendid showing at Monree. She attracted great atten- tion by her looks, speed and style, and is spoken of very highly by the racing experts at the Monroe meeting. Plucky Chap, owned by M. L. Proulx of Hartford and driven by W. E. Crozier, js another horse that will make eome stepping in the 2,18 trot before the winner is picked. Atlanta Peter, owned by the Clay Cotton sta- Dbles, is another entry in the same class and was second to Oscar Watts in the 2.20 trot at Northampton on July 17th. Purses amounting to $4,800 will be distributed to the lucky winners in the horse races, and the increased purses have been the means of bringing some of the fastest talent in New England to the county fair. A few novelties will be rung in this year which shouM be the means of much enjoyment to the spectators. There will be a muie race, an ox race and a peg race. In the latter race the contestants drive in before the judges’ stand, unhitch and hang the harness on a peg. At the word they must get the harness, put it on the horse, hitch to carriage and drive once around the track. Any person who has ever seen @ peg race is sure to see this one.
