Boats Will Run. 4
It is expected that boats will be able
to pass through the locks of the gov
eminent dam that is being constructed
at Meeker island, next summer. The
east side of the dam is rapidly nearing
completion, and the lower, and upper
locks will be put in place before cold
weather interferes. IS.
Preliminary work has been COM
menced on second Golfer dam, which
is about 100 yards from the west shore,
and next season this will be the prin-
cipal scene of activity. From the
outer wall of the lock there will be
built dam, which will have an apron,
over which the water will run. This
dam will be 100 feet wide, made of
criss-cross sections, into which loose
rocks will be placed. Over this will
be the apron. 1t is estimated that
foot of water will be kept running
over this continually. /.

Mississippi river, opposite the North

indicated by the verdict of the coron-
er's jury. The county attorney de-
clined to accept that view of the mat
ter and took the case before the grand
jury, which voted true bill.
