The new rate from Los Angeles to Salt Lake City is $28.05 instead of $41.39 as formerly. Major E. Tf. Ardery. district United States engineer, today gave notice at Los Angeles that next nesday is the last day upon which may be filed protests against the government granting the county of Orange the right to construct a bridge across the upper arm of Newport bay as a part of the coast boulevard.

Objections must be filed in triplicate and must be based on navigation interests, the notice advises. Plans for the bridge provide for a removable span with a clear height of twenty feet at mean low water and a clear span of sixty feet. Orading work on the route of the coast highway is in progress from Newport Beach toward Huntington Beach. According to information received from the office of J. L.

McBride, superintendent of county highways, detailed plans and specifications for the bridge ill he completed immediately following approval by the war department of the application for permission to span the channel. The county will have two bridges to construct, one across the Santa Ana river and other across the arm of the bay. Newport Reach also will construct a bridge across the river, connecting the west end of Bay avenue with the coast boulevard and offering a direct route into Newport Beach. Bay avenue Is paved to the edge of the old river channel. While the river has 'been diverted from the bay, it was shown that it will be necessary to build a bridge across the old channel in order to keep the channel open for tide waters.

PROTEST GRADE OF NEW COAST HIGHWAY TOO LOW. That, an asserted serious situation confronts the future stability of the state coast highway, was vealed Thursday night at the meeting of the Orange County Harbor Chamber of Commerce, when it was brought to the attention of the directors that the new road, according to statements made by members, is being cut four feet below the dam fill of the Santa Ana river, which means that the road will be menaced with water when the river is flooded, it was learned here today. Notice of this asserted condition was sent yesterday to the state highway commission. It developed from statements made that when the survey was made last year for the highway that the stakes were set to conform with a low spot in the sandspit and the road was set out at the point, which is below the dam fill about four feet. It was maintained at the meeting that the dam was of insufficient height to prevent the river breaking through when it went on a rampage, and that when it did the concrete roadbed would be buried under several feet of water.

It was also brought out at the meeting that a fill rather than a concrete bridge would be more acceptable at the west arm of Newport bay, to connect with the Newport Beach coast boulevard, and that the government engineers would look with favor on such a recommendation. That all the dirt available for such a fill can be secured without difficulty from the lands of the Interstate Oil company, was the statement made by Mr. Strobridge, manager of the concern. The matter will be presented to the Newport Beach board of trustees Monday for consideration, as the change would result in the saving of several thousand dollars to the city. W.

F. Beal, contractor for the coast highway, is pushing work on the Job in his usual energetic manner and has stated, that barring labor troubles and weather hindrances, he will be through with the concrete work by the first of August and the road open to the public by September 1.

Snyder started to excavate for an underground gasoline tank in his garage at Grass Valley he struck gold- bearing ore a few feet below the surface, according to Potter Bowles, of the Bowles Motor company, local Studebaker distributor. had the ore assayed and found that it contained a considerable quantity of said Bowles.

In a few weeks, as the shaft sunk deeper, his garage was full, of dirt from the excavation. miners were bringing up so much ore that the Snyder service department was getting too crowded for comfort. By that time, however. he had taken enough money out of the mine to pay for the garage.

He deliberated on the problem for a short time and decided to close up his gold mine and stick to his Studebakers. closed up the shaft leading into the garage and sold the underground rights to a gold mining company which is now working underneath the surface of the garage. Snyder stipulated In his contract that the mining operations were not to interfere with his garage business. When asked if he have difficulty making up his mind to abandon the gold mine, Snyder said: 'Not much. bother with a gold mine when such a substantial business as the contract for Studebaker? A gold mine is a fickle thing, uncertain at best, liable to quit on you at any time.

But selling Studebakers is a sure thing. keep my And he HE; SUIT CEOUDED Because she admitted that she misrepresented her age when she married Raleigh Taylor at Riverside a few months ago, Marjorie Brown Taylor, 17. of Anaheim, today was being held in suspense regarding the annulment of her marriage.
