River has been started by Colonel S.!

the government had some difficulty In
taking care of the rock shipments as
rapidly as they were hauled from the"

Car tracks are being overhauled and

The plant is said to be in fairly good
condition, and in the next month will
be in the finest kind of shape. The

If all goes welrj
more work will be done to the Jetty
this coming season than during any
previous year.
For two months an effort has been
made to take soundings of the depth of
water on the bar, but the frequent
storms interfered. Very soon, it Is be

The engineers are anxious to know
what effect the jetty has had during the
past few months of scouring out the
bar. When the last soundings were ,
taken the shoalest spots on the bar j
were covered by about 24 feet of wa

Bishop, president of the Aero Club of
America, received a message last night
from the president of the Aero club
of Italy, that a challenge for the in
ternatiorial balloon cup had been Is
sued by ihat organization. It is
doubtful if the challenge can be ac
cepted for the entry limit expired on
February 1. However, if a challenge
was mailed on that date by the Ital
ian club, it is believed it can yet be
accepted. President Bishop has asked
