SUSITNA RIVER BRIDGE
IS NOW COMPLETED
The 530 foot suspension bridge
crossing the Susitna river at Curry,
directly to the rear of the Curry ho
tel, has been completed, says the
Fairbanks News-Miner. Many tour
ists and passengers on the trains are
taking advantage of the short stop
over, crossing to the opposite side.
The bridge was constructed by C.
H. Holmes of the engineering depart
ment of the Alaska Railroad and
serves the purpose of opening up a
scenic point, on top of a hill approx
imately 2000 feet in height, afford
ing a clear and unobstructed parora
ma view of the majestic Mt. McKin
ley and other beauty attractions.
The long span was made on the
spot and is constructed of selected
timber covered with decking, the
whole being suspended from two
heavy cables, reaching from shore to
shore. Heavy wiring, to a heightof
six feet on both sides, form an ad

SEWARD. ALASKA
mirable safeguard for the pedestrian
and pack horses- Guide lines run
from various points on the swaying
bridge, to both banks on shore, elim
inate to a great extent, precarious
walking, on the light structure which
swings quite dizzily at times as one
passes over.
The completion of this bridge
marks the forerunner of many other
innovations which the management
of the Alaska railroad is contemplat
ing for the benefit of tourist traffic, j
which has already been largely dem- ;
onstrated, by the amount of travel I
this season ,and which for next sum
mer, promises to show a gratifying
increase.
BEAK ATTACKS MAN
After escaping from drowning in
the rapids below the Big Bounder j
dam in the wilds of inland Alaska, I
47 miles from Haines, the nearest
town, Lawrence McConnell, surveyor,
climbed the steep banks of the creek
and on pulling himself over the last
edge to the top was pawed on the
back of the neck by a brown bear. A
fractured skull and minor scratches
about the head and shoulders were
the result of the encounter. After ■
the bear had struck him down he
remembered stories of old hunters
who had said that a bear would not
further attack a man who appears
dead, so Mr. McConnell remained
quiet and Mr. Bruin, who was really
not of the ferocious type, and had
only come to the stream to catch
salmon, walked away. Mr. McCon
nell’s comrades, members of his sur
veying party .dressed his wounds as
best they could. After two weeks’
recuperating he was moved to Ju
neau ,from where he sailed for Seat
