10 BE FINISHED
THIS EVENING
The big bridge spanning the Ne
nana river at the Crossing <43-mi]e),
which was recently damaged by the
ice movement and has been under
going repairs for the past week or
so, is expected to be completed this
evening.
Piling to replace the five bents
taken out by the ice have been
driven, and the necessary super
structure to carry the rails across
will, it is expected, be in position
when the work for the day ends.
The laying of steel will take but i
a short time, and through traffic
will be made possible.
According to the present plans of
the A. E. C., through traffic to the
coal mines will not be resumed un
til after the section of the road
lying between the Russell cut at
35-mile and the Crossing has been
surfaced and put in shape to make
through heavy traffic perfectly safe.
A large gang of men is working
toward this end now and making
good progress.
A great many empty coal cars
now on the spur near the Burns
mine will be hauled to town as soon
as the bridge is completed, and
these will be fixed to carry the
gravel for surfacing and other pur- j
poses on various sections of the
government railroad.
In the meantime, train service
will be maintained up to 35-mile
and freight and passengers destined
for points beyond will be hauled on
the speeder, until such time as the
roadbed has been rendered fit for
the heavy locomotives.

DOUGLAS, Ariz.—Jobnny Mine
medicine man of the Kickapoos
friend of numerous officials a1
Washington and canny negotiatoi
at Washington for his tribe, is dead
but his funeral will not be held
till six months, perhaps six years
hence, when the money from his
estate is available to buy present;
for all the tribe. Then a dance
will be held all night and the pres
ents wrill be distributed at day
break.
M. J. Bentley .business agent
for the tribe, says Johnny Mine’s
real name was Mah-Me-Qua-Che
which means “Leaning Tree.’’ He
represented the Kickapoos in al
negotiations with the government
Mine had often proved more thai:
a match for crafty whites who had
designs on the Kickapoos. He hac
been to Washington a number oi
times and on such trips always wort
a Prince Albert coat and a high silt
hat.
A peck of corn will be buriec
at his head to sustain him unti
he reaches the happy hunting
grounds. There, say the Indians
will be much food awaiting Johnny
for during his long life he has
killed a dog each -spring and senl
him along ahead to forage for game
against the day his master arrived
Mine was unmarried and leave;
no immediate relatives. He hac
an 80-acre tract of alfafa in Okla
homa said to be worth $10,000.
