Valentine Republican : In company
I with Jos. H. Yeast , the reporter of
this paper visited the railway camps
east of town last Sunday morning.
Camps are being established at va
rious points where the work In con-
noctlon with building the mammoth
new steel bridge are necessary and
to the visitor they appear more llko
mining camps than those of railway
constructors , especially is this true of
the camp at the head of the Prod
Miller canyon , whore n largo culvert
is being built. A spur has been run
out from the main line along the base
of a big hill and from there trestle
work has been erected down the can
yon and track laid on top to operate
small cars carrying the cement used
In the walls of the culvert which , when
completed , will be 300 feet long. One
steam shovel is working on the fill
Just east of the river and one will
start on this side soon. The starting
of this work seems slow to one not
familiar with what has to bo done in
the constructlbn of-such a mammoth
ploco of work , but when the full force
gets to working each week will show
big gains In the way of bringing the
work to a close. It Is Interesting to
visit the camp at the present time , but
will bo of greater interest In a few
weeks from now , when the forces will
bo working at full capacity.

Boy Bandits to Reform School.
Five of the Norfolk boy bandits , who
had fled from the city and who were
captured at Chadron , 400 miles west
of here , where they had broken into a
Northwestern merchandise car Satur
day evening were sentenced to the
state industrial school at Kearney un
til they become 21 years old. They
pleaded guilty at Chadron. The boys
stole high cowboy boots from the mer
cantile' car , and , wearing these on the
streets of Chadron , were easily appre

have broken into a car at Gordon ,

school are : Vic Little , 15 , whoso
mother operates a boarding house ;
two sons , 14 and 15 , of W. A. Emery ,

district court , when he may be sent
to the penitentiary. This makes eight
boys now on their way'to prison. The

the cowboy boots. As a result they
discarded their own phoes and tucked
their trousers into the western boots.

their undoing.
Mr. Emery of this city was the first
to be notified by the Chadron author-
