BEGGAR HAS BANK DEPOSITS OVER $25,000 Ni-w York. Februar) 1.?From tho Bowery slums, a weary, woe-begnne old bdggar was haled before Magistrate Anthony F. Burke on a charga of soliciting alms Henry Thomas hv name, Go in age, he clutched a greasy cap in a hand minus its index finger and shifted uneasily in filthy clothes topped by a ragged, iilfitting overcoat. So touched was Magistrate Burke that he ordered the man held while his case was investigated, expressing a hop.- something could he done to help .him The frail, maciated mendicant appeared yesterday as order od. So did the investigator, to report that Thomas had bank deposits totaiitig $2.VJ17 ?>: . He lives in a Bowery hotel t>K#rn that costs him 2" cents a day. "I don't know what to do with you," tiie magistrate said "You probably have more money than any body in this courtroom -I don't know. "You never knew how to get pleasure out of your life, so I'll tell you. I'll fine you $2.'? or sentence you to 2 days in Jail If I had that money, or a quarter of it. i d he down in Falm Beach enjoying myself."

Highway i No. 1 at Camden, according to C. R. McMillan, State Highway Engineer This handsome new reinforced con crote and structural steel bridge will replace the narrow winding wooden structure which has been in service at this crossing for a number of years. It will be remembered that the present wooden I)ridge was operated as a toll bridge by Kershaw County until it was purchased by the State Highway Department in 1034 under an Act of the General Assembly. Since 1034 the bridge has been free. The new bridge is to be straight and on a location about 1.000 feet downstream from Lite present structure. It will bo several feet higher than the present bridge and high enough to i pass any flood waters on record with a safe margin. The new main river bridge wiii be reinforced concrete and structural steel and will ho 870 feet \n length. The reinforced concrete trestles on either end of the river bridge will total 1.0S1 feet in length, making the length of the entire structure 1 1 feet. The structure will have a 2G foot wide roadway with two 2 1-2 feet sidewalks for pedestrians. The handrails on the trestle and bridge will be all alike?steel handrails with concrete posts. The effect of the whole bridge will be light and Jt will have a general modernistic appearance. I*. S. Highway No. 1 is one of the heaviest traveled north and 8J)Uth tourist routes on the eastern Seaboard and between Columbia and Camden it forma an important local road. The old Camden bridge has long been outmoded by heavy and fast traffic. Heavy military equipment in passing over U. S. Highway No. 1 through South CaroTlna has been having to detour over other roads to avoid the old Camden Bridge, which is not strong enough to support the loads. The new bridge, however, will meet all requirements of the War I>epartmeut. The construction of a modern bridge over the'Watoree River at this crossing is welcomed as one of the most urgently needed highway projects in the State, both from the standpoint of j pleasure and commercial travel ondt national defense operations of the War Department. The earth road approaches to the! new bridge location have already been J built and it is expected that the new bridge will be completed sometime in the spring of 1942.
