BRIDGE IS WANTED.
People on the South Hill Feci That
They Xml Bridge Across High
Stm Gulch.
Since the destruction of the Rel.
man Home by fire last week the
people on the south hill have been
agitating the matter of securing a
bridge across the High street gulch
and it Is probable that some definite
action will be taken on the subject.
It is contended by residents of the
south hill that If there had been a
bridge across the gulch by which
teams with fire apparatus might have
reached the hill more quickly that
the Reiman house could have been
saved and the residents all feel that
they are left practically without fire
protection because of the absence of
a bridge over this deep gulch.
The matter was agitated some time
ago and steps were taken to secure
the help of the city council In build
ing a bridge and It is probable that
It will be taken up again at once.

Xew Pumping Plant Installed.
The new electrically operated pump
at the city pump house was put In op
eration yesterday, says the La
Grande Observer. It Is considered to
be a gnat success. A pressure of
125 pounds to the square inch was
maintained anil the pump throws a
stream which is equivalent to 1400
gallons of water per minute. The old
pump could not stand a pressure
above 100 pounds. The electric pow
er will now be used regularly and for
the present will be operated eight
hours a day This is the minimum
time under the contract with the
Grand Ronde Electric company. In
case of necessity the machinery can be
run on longer time, but the cost per
day Is higher.

sell.

Thrown from his seat during a run
away this afternoon, J. C. McConnell,
the transfer man, was painfully In
jured though not seriously. About 3
o'clock he was on one of his drays

Difficulties of River Travel.
Sidney Noble returned to North
Yakima Saturday from a trip across
the Columbia river at Priest Rapids,
says the Yakima Republic. He went
away two weeks ago Intending to re
main a week, but he put In an extra
week on the banks of the river wait
ing for the wind to go down, so that
he could cross over. ' Saturday morn
ing he got a clear day but when al
most across the wind hit the scow
and the shorter end of the Journey
was by far the longer. A big scow
broke loose from the Milwaukee
bridge and with several hundred dol
lars worth of cable on deck went
down over the rapids. It was sal
vaged by a rancher and tied up in an
eddy. The railroad people will at
tempt to warp It back up the river
and over the falls. There are rings
Ir. the rocks where the government
took a steamer up several years ago
and as the scow cost about $700 It
Is figured to be economy to haul It
back.
