Couid'a Famous Trained Animal Clr ens' to Give Two Performances. There is no other entertainment so universally popular with little folks as an exhibition of educated dogs, ponies, monkeys nnd goats. These clever lit tle animal actors have always proven a source of Infinite amusement, en tertainment nnd Instruction to child ren, so the Juveniles will surely hall with delight and satisfaction the an nouncement of the coming appearnnce of Coziid's California Dog nnd Pony circus. Over three hundred miniature an imal actors will take part In the exhi bitions nnd it will demonstrate whnt kindness, gentleness and patience can accomplish with dumb animals. When they exhibit here tomorrow they will show nearly 100 pretty prancing ponies In marches, counter marching, drills and all the difficult evolutions of k completely drilled or ganization.

Contracts are being rap Idly let for grading, and the Iron for th? hiidges aim tracks already on the way to Van- ,-ver. I' If xnld that within two years the railroad anil bridges will be completed and In op eration. Contract !. Contracts have been let to Teter Slmnis. of St. Paul and to Porter Bros, of Chicago. It Is said Peter Slmms has secured the larger part i.f the contracts for grading. Porter Bros, i have gangs of graders already nt work at Holland's landing, and In the vicin ity of Cape Horn preparations are un der way for the beginning of heavy blasting to remove obstructions In the nature of basaltic rocks ekise to the river bank. Large quantities of giant powder are being received nt Vancou ver and taken by boat to the scene of operations. The announcement made officially today removes the last doubt of the i.ames of the real purchasers of the Columbia Railroad & Navigation com pany, which Is the Goldendale rail road ami the Regulator line of steam boats. The boats of the Regulator line are being freely used to transport supplies, equipment and men from Vancouver to the points where con struction work has been commenced along the north bank. Right of Way Scviin-d. It Is now believed the ' Northern Pacific has secured much more right of way along the north bank than It was generally credited with owning. So far as rival railroad lines could ascertain but little right of way be tween Kennewlck und Vancouver was owned by any railroad company a month ago and today It is said the 20-mile stretch from Vancouver to Washougal Is still In the hands of original owners. It is believed the larger part of the route has been secured by agents of the Northern Pacific, but that the transfers are not yet placed on record. Efforts made three months ago by speculators to secure large tracts of ground on the lower peninsula with I a view to transferring them to the Northern Pacific at advanced prices proved futile. It was found that the Northern Pacific people had been be forehand and that the company had all the rights of way and terminal grounds It needed. Columbia River Bridge. The new bridge over the Columbia river at Shaw's island will be one of the most modern design steel bridges, double tracked, and probably double decked, for street car and wagon travel. Construction will he com menced from the pier now standing close to the north shore, nt the west limits of the town of Vancouver. The route from the Columbia river bridge will cross the sloughs and low lands over a trestle a mile long to reach the ridge that rises toward St. Johns, and will skirt this ridge at a 1 per cent grade to the site purchased for the Weyerhauser sawmill, a mile below St. Johns. Here the Northern Pacific will build a high bridge over the Willumette river. On the west side of that stream the new line will hug the front of the hills and descend along the river to a connection with the present main line. This route is said to have been se lected as the most feasible after many surveys had been made. Surveyors Iong at Work. Practically every yard of the avail able ground for right of way has been surveyed by the Northern Pacific's men. They have been constantly at work for the last six months. Many of them have operated under the guise of "geological survey" parties. They have surveyed five routes to approach the proposed high ARMY BLANKETS $2.00.
