A PULASKI BRIDGE GOES DOWN.

An Iron bridge (50 or 70 feet long, spanning the Monon ditch half way between Francessville and Medaryville, went down Saturday with Howard Miller’s engine pulling Fred Kopka’s threshing machine. Miller was on the engine but was not hurt, and it so happened that the engine fell so it was easy to take out right away and was but slightly damaged. The separator fared worse, being considerably wrecked, and so situated that it was not gotten out till Monday. It is fortunate that no one was killed or injured. The bridge is said to have been new a year ago.—Pulaski County Democrat.
