Work on San Pedro Harbor.

Work is progressing more rapidly on
the improvements in San Pedro har-
Dor. which will be turned into a more
splendid port than ever shortly after
the San Pedro. Los Angeles & Salt
Lake road is completed. More than
40. coo tons of rock were dumped into
the harbor for the breakwater during
the month of September. In all $780,
600 tons are to be used for the con-
struction of the breakwater, and of
this amount $4,000 tons is already in
place, the contractors having been at
work since Sept. 1, 1900. The progress
will be more rapid next year and
thenceforth. and it is expected that the
entire work will be completed by Jan.

of the finest harbors on the Pacific
coast and will put the San Pedro road

nounced alike or nearly so. One day my
teacher gave me this sentences 60 trans

Burlington to Experiment-Possibil-

Following the announcement that the
Great Northern purposes the installa-
ton of electric power for its Cascade
division comes the announcement that
the Burlington is considering trying the
experiment on the old DeadwOod Cen
trail narrow gauge line in the Black
Hills. This road runs between Dead
wood and Lead over tremendous
grades, and the operating expenses are
immense considering the length of the
road. 1t is thought that a heavy saw
ing can be made by applying electricity
The are many railroad men who
believe that in time ali the railroads
will be operated by electricity. 1t is
suggested. for example, that if great
oil fields were discovered in Utah, pow
err plants could be put up at various
places and the cheap fuel used and the
power transmitted at less expense than
at present.

Some Easter Reflections.

To the Editor: 1t was my good fortune
to attend service at one of the city
churches yesterday. The floral decora-
tons were beautiful. The service was
impressive. The deep toned organ, under
the touch of fair hand, accompanied by
cultured voices, seemed to eaten
the inspiration of the holy anniversary,
and thrilled the hearer like far off mel
ody in dream of paradise. The au-
dience was far above the average in all
that goes to make up a metropolitan peo-
pie. The preacher was simple and natu-
raj, and yet eloquent. But something
was lacking. What was it? Could it be
explained in the words of gentleman,
the audience was delightfully."- entertain
ed today?" Is it not possible in our city
churches that this idea of entertainment
may crowd out that other, that infinitely
more important idea and object, the spirit
Of true worship? Let us hope not.
In the afternoon strolled through
that beautiful city of the dead. lakewood
| saw the graves of the young and the
old the obscure and the famous, the rich
and the poor. / saw on some a pro-
fusion of costly flowers; on others the
