YAQUINA HARBOR IMPROVEMENTS.

The following extract is taken from
the annual report of the chief of engi-
neers to the secretary of war, in nele-
ton to the Improvement of Yaquina
Bay. The report was made about
three months ago but has just been
issued:
The usual prevailing depths over
the bar at low water, before improve
ment, were from to feet. Three
distinct channels existed. known as
the north, middle and south channels
The south channel was the one most
ly used, but was rendered dangerous
by the presence Of rocks. The mid
die channel, though free from rocks,
ives usually the shoalest of the three,
and so was little used. The north
channel besides being long and tor
tuous, was so studded with rocks as
to be considered unnavigable. Owing
to the shifting nature of the bar these
channels were constantly changing,
both in position and debth. The
mean rise Of tide was IL feet. The
project adopted in 1881 was to run
out II dixie or jetty on the south side
OF the entrance. so as to cause the
south channel to shoal up and the
flow to be detected northward with a
view to opening and maintaining the
central channel with least depth of
II feet at high water.
AS ORIGINALLY nroiootaI tho fliJyo
was to start from near low water line
and run out into the sea distance of
$500 feet, and was to rise to two feet
above mean low water The beach
on the line of the jetty from high
water level, WAS to be protected by
sinking gablons in the beach with
sand heaped over them and by cover
ing the surfaces with a layer Of mat
tresses and stone:
The stane for the jetty was to be
deposited in place from barges, and
cribs were to be used if practicable.
1t was found, however, that cribs
could not be used on account Of the
strong current and high seas, and that
the ocean swell, even in quiet weather
was too great to permit of stone
barges. Accordingly the jetty had to
be built from the shore end, by carry
ing the stone out over a tramway,
and was begun at high-tide line in
stead of low-tide line, thus making
the total projected length of the jetty
in 1881, 300 feet.
In 1884 the jetty was extended
shoreward a distance of 316 feet to
close up gap that had been washed
out by the sea, making the total pro-
jected length of the jetty at that time
about 1000.
The present project, adapted in
1888, is to raise the south jetty to full
high water without extending it sea-
ward, thus making it's total length
374S feet, and to construct mid-tide
jetty on the north side Of the entrance,
about 23O0 feet in length, extending
from the north head along and be-
hind the reef. putting out from the
head to a point opposite the end of
the south jetty and distant from it
about 1000 feet
Amount expended to June 80, was
1882 ,631 25.
At that date the south jetty had
been completed to its entire length, as
projected by the board of engineers,
and the north jetty to a length of 800
feet, and work was being actively car
ried on. Amount expended during
the year ending June 30, 1890, was
$50,S67 -. Appropriations have been
made for this Improvement amounting
to $55O,000.

AT JOBS THEATRE.-Under tho
auspices of the G. A. r., r. o. Bates
related the story Of the experience of
himself and comrade and their capture
and escape from the southern pris-
ons during the war, last Tuesday
ana Wednesday evenings at job
Theatre. The audience was not large,
but the manner in which he related his
story held their entire attention
both evenings. There was nothing in
the lecture to stir anyone with feelings
other than those OF the deepest sympa-
thy. He told in most simple manner
of their capture, che treatment while
i'll the various prisons, their plans and
escape, the exciting chase of their
captors, their arrival in the Union line,
their trip to Washington, their recep-
ton by the president, then home, etc.
It can safely be said that all who at
tended were we'll pleased with the
story.

AsBEsTos.-An agent is now in Port
land who has been. sent here in the in
terest of an English syndicate for the
purpose of gathering information con
cerning the extensive beds of asbestos
that exist in the Willamette valley. It
L. stated that the syndicate propose to
engage in preparation and manufac-
tuae Of asbestos in Oregon on large
scale. 1t has been reported for some
time that al1 extensive bed of asbestos
exists IN Benton county, about twenty
miles west Of Corvallis near the Ore
gon Pacific railroad, aud we have had
several requests from parties engaged
in the manufacture of this mineral to
procure specimens of this mineral for
them, which we have endeavored to
do, but SO far failed. Hence we have
about come to the conclusion that the
parties who own the find either do not
care to have it developed or they have
not got as extensive a bed of the
mineral as represented.
