BEGGAR HAS BANK

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

Construction work was started thi*
week on the now $300,000 bridge over
the Wateree "River on U, S. 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.
