SUSPENSION BRIDGE AFFORDS
TOURISTS VIEW OF CANYON
The only bridge which spans the
mighty Yukon river from its source
«
to its mouth, a distance of more
than 2,500 miles, as the river runs,
was recently constructed across the
famous Miles canyon, just south of
the town of Whitehorse, and has
been namedi “Lowe Suspension
Bridge” in honor of Robert Lowe,
for many years a prominent resi
1 dent of Whitehorse and many times
member of the Yukon council, to
which position he was but lately re
elected.
j . The bridge, which is swung on
, heavy cable, is 120 feet in length,
( four feet wide and 55 feet above
the roaring waters of the canyon
, where many stampeders lost their
lives during the rush to the Klondike
' more than a score of years ago. i!
has a test strength of 75 tons bui
i is intended only for foot passengers.
! The White Pass & Yukon Routt
financed the construction of . tht
: bridge, it being in close proximitj
‘ to the railroad and a valuable assei
' to it as a scenic attraction. Tht
: idea originated with Mr. Lowe i
", number of years ago.

TRANSPORT tfAVIS TO WINTER
ON NEW WAYS AT NENANA
Lieut. H. D. Stetson. of the quart-!
ermaster's department, reports the
1 receipt of instructions to bring the
army transport General Davis, now
i on the ways at Fort Gibbon, to
: Xenana, presumably for use next
spring in connection with the Alas
ka Railroad, and preparations are
now being made to carry out the
instructions.
Similar instructions were received
from Washington several weeks ago
: and the work of launching the Davis j
had almost been ,completed when
j orders came to leave the boat at'
! the army town. The ways were
moved to Xenana shortly afterward ;
1 for use in hauling the General
| Jacobs from the water, and the
timbers must now be taken back to :
Gibbon for the launching of the
Davis, and then brought back to
Xenana. for permanent installation.
Lieu:. Stetson will leave for the
army town late today, on the Gen
I eral Jacobs, to superintend the work
and w'ill be away probably about two
i weeks.
It is the intention to bring the
Davis up river under her own S:eam
1 with a portion of the crew of the
! Jacobs, the two boats traveling
close together.
Miss Constance Petersen, of the
| A. E. C. shop office, went to Fair
