'Ferry Will Replace Bridge at Detillion ‘

DAVENPORT, Wash., May 7. (Special.)—The reclamation bureau has taken over maintenance of the Detillion bridge on state road No. 22, north of Davenport, and will keep it open until it is flooded by the lake behind Grand Coulee dam.

A ferry will be put into operation across the Spokane river at the Narrows, near Miles, where a new bridge is being constructed. Detillion bridge was closed for several months last year due to the high water.
