The city authorities should find out
why there are not street lights kept burn

CITIES IN WEDLOCK.
TheOpenlngof tho New Iron Biidge
Uniting Council BlufTs and
Omaha Enthusiastically
Celebrated.
Motive Power From Electricity.
About a year ago contracts were let
and operations begun for the erection of
a bridge over the Missouri river lctwecn
Omaha, Nebraska, and Couucil Bluffs,
Iowa, to accommodate the growing pass-
A. - A
enger and commercial irauic net ween
those two cities; the bridge to be built
for motor cars propelled ly electricity,
wit'i wagon and foot ways to either side j
of the bridge.
During the full and winter months deep
casions were sunk and piers erected, and
as the fpringand summer months of this
year advanced, the piers of iron and solid
masonry, which rested on solid rock be
neath, were made to bear up the tresscl
work for an iron bridge, the bud of en
thusiasm started by the announcement
oftbebridg eproject burst into aflame of
excitement. Heal estate rec ived the
first impetus, and building and general
business improvement followed.
Yesterday was the day set apart for the
opening of the bridge to the public
characterized as a wedding day of cities
(united for good or bad. prosperity or
depression of business). Jt was a day of
jubilee for all tho rival spirit of years
past was suddenly changed to a feeling
of brotherly loye and "good in common"
view.
The tireet in Couwcil BlufTs leading to
the bridge was paved completely -J one
can travel from the biidge into Iowa
four miles and a half over cedar Mock
and s'one pavement without materially
changing bis liirevtio.). Jn Omaha the
bridge opens on Douglas street. The
double track for the electric motor cars
extends from Omaha to the M. E. church
on upper Broadway in Council Bluffs, a
distance of about iu.n- tu'iK'S- T,,e l'ieC"
tricity is generated at the electric house
about one mile east of the bridge nnd is
transmitted to a large copper wire which
is suspended over the tracks and from
which the powe fcr running the cars is
supplied. The cars were rail by this
means on Monday, and several trips were
made yesterday, but they merely served
as test trips as there is some "pathehing
up" t) do before the cars can be run
regularly and systematically. A speed
of ten miles pr hour with Pftr every
six minutes is the regularity sought for.
Tiie bridgo U 3 foil bridge, owned and
operated by capitalists in Omaha and
Council Bluffs. The hour of opening
was 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The
plan of ee-ej.rgtion was for the trades
display of Council Blurts, and re com
panies, civic societies, etc., of other
western Iowa cities, headed by Gov.
Larrahec and the bridge owners, to start
at 12:00 o'clock ioi UlS 1 'ridge, there
meet the Omaha procession of the same
class, return to the Bluffs, parade and
have speaking, tlen go to Omaha, where
the day would be finished. When the
two processions met the shop, mill, and
factory whistles of Omaha and .Council
Bluffs were started at full blast, and
kept at it for about five minutes. This
sent a thrill of patriotism, of new kind
through the hcpts of every soul in hear
ing distance. One thing in the proces
sion worthy of mention was the mock
wedding, by little children. A pyramid
of children was arranged on a wagon.
They were dressed in red white nnd blue
laud kept things lively with their shouts
of laughter and merry songs. At the top
of the pyramid was a platform on which
was the mock marriage performance. A
little girl was attired as a bride, with her
brides-made, and a little boy acted a3
groom, having also a groomsman;
another youug lad stood before them at
tired as a priest prepared to perform a
marriage ceremony. The procession was
about four miles long.
The biidge ceremonies were the most
impressive proceedings of the day. The
leading carriage of the BlufTs procession,
drawn by four white horses, was occupied
by Gov. and Mrs. Larrabee, of Iown, and
Mayor and Mrs. Rohrer, of Council Bluffs.
Tiie leading carriage of the Omaha pro-
cession, drawn also iy iour wnue norsus
carried Governon and Mrs. Thsvyer, of
Nebraska, and Mayor and Mrs. Broatch,
of Omaha.
Swung from the eastern end of the
bridge was the motto, " Omaha Welcomes
Council Bluffs;'' from the west end of
the bridge hung the motto, "Council
Bluffs Welcomes Omaha." Suspended
from the trusses of the center span of the
bridge was au immencse ring, covered
with bunting and flags, bearing the in
scription. "Truly Wed." Under this
ring the carriages of Governors Larrabee
and Thayer were driven beside each other.
Mr. Thomas Baldwin, as master of cere
monies, now stepped forward and
requested the reverened Bishop Newman
to pronounce an invocation, which he
diJ, invocing God's blessing npon the
two cities . so auspiciously brought
together. John T. Stewart was intro
duced, and made a short address.
At this junction the scene ontfTie bridge
was a grand and magnificent sight. Here
stood the governors of two great states,
eurrounded by their staff ofieers. These (

officers, in their rich and magnificent
uniforms, mixed with the civilians, made
a most impicssive and gorgeous picture
one that will not soon be forgotten by
those who were fortunate enough to be
present.
Governor Thayer made an address on
behalf of the people of Nebraska, but the
screeching of steam whistles, cheers of
the people and sharp crack of firearms,
made it impossible to hear much of what
w&3 said.
Governor Larrabee, made a response
on behalf of the people of Iowa. At the
conclusion of his speech the noise was so
great that further addresses were dis
pcused with.
At this juncture Mrs. Rohrer and Mrs.
Broatch each broke a bottle of wine upon
the bridge, and Bishop Newman pro
nounced the words that firmly bound the
two cities togetiier.
The procession then returned to Coun
cil Bluffsparaded and Omaha returned
home. Driving to Bayliss park in Coun
cil BlufTs, the ceremonial party alighted
from their carriages and the bridge com
pany leading Governors Thayer and Lar
rabee, who walked arm-in-arm, proceeded
to the park s'and where speeches were
made by Mayor Rhorer, of Council
Bluffs, Mayor Broatch, of Omaha, Mr.
C. R. Givins, of Chicago, and Colonel C.
S. Chase of Omaha.
The last exercise of the day was the
competitive millitary drill, held in
Omaha last night. The cash prizes were
awarded as follows: Company E. (Ball
