RECLAMATION OF FLATS.
Progress Noted in the Work on Ana
costa Marshes.

Sanford & Brooks of Baltimore. the con-
tractors for the Anacostia river improve
ments, are pushing the preliminary work
along rapidly, two grapple or clam shell
diggers being employed in the work. An
embankment about 800 or 1000 feet long
has been thrown up by the dredges around
the outer edge of the area it is proposed to
reclaim and the embankment Is showing
about a foot above the surface of the river
at an ordinary tide.
The improvements in contemplation not
only embrace the reclamation of the flats
on the southern side of the Anacostia river,
but a channel twenty feet deep and from
300 to 400 feet wide is to be dredged from
the junction of the navy yard and Potomac
river channels to. the upper limits of the
navy yard. All the crooks and sharp turns
which now make 1t so very difficult for
vessels to go to the navy yard are to be
done away with, and the new channel is
to be a broad straight waterway through
which any naval vessel that visits this city
can reach the navy yard without trouble or
danger of going aground.
The sum of $15O.O00 has been appropriated
for the work. and the contract calls for it's
completion by June 30, 1904.

Year after year, her tender steps pursuing,
Behold her grown more fair.

A CADDY'S GRATITUDE.
But His Expression of it Might Have
 Been Happier.

A certain Liverpool insurance man. ager went as usual to play golf the other afternoon. The caddy was very ragged, and it appealed to the tender heart of the insurance man.
 Presently he found by delft qu2s- tioning that the boy was hungry, too. SC he gave the lad m inevitable some thing, and bade him go at once and get food.
 When the game was over he asked the lad to come with him to his house and take orc of the insurance man ager's old suits, and this the boy gratefully did.
 Bit by bit the kindly manager worm cd from him the story of his dependent mother. and before the lad had finish ed it was decided to send a load of coal and a round of beef to the mother.
