County Judge O. P. Terrell and Julge

at the Clreen's Ferry bridge on the
Hantlam, two miles above Jefferson,
yesterday morning, for the purpose of

of the prhable cost of needed repairs.
It Is proposed to secure a metal cylin

and by means of this make thelthreat

The bridge, was construct twenty
two years ago. and the cribbing, which
Itaa now outlived Its Usefulness, was

and are now being put In position. The
nre escapes are a decided departure
from the old style ladder used on most
buildings, and are so constructed as to
make them the Ideal contrivance for

claimed that, with the four fire escapes
of this pattern, how being constructed,
the entire building can be vacated by
the patients- in less than five minutes.
These Are escapes, sold to the author
ities by the Northwest General Electric
Co., of Portland, are being erected un
der the supervision of A. H. PomtnAr
of this city.
In addition to the spiral fire escapes,
the use of the old style iron ladders,
some of which have heretofore been
provided at the asylum, will be kept in
use, and others, of similar stvi nt
