How the Work is Progressing
on This Mammoth Work.
COMPLETE POWER PLANT
Construction of Piers Begun
and Rock Conveyed Over
River on Cable--Army of
Workmen Employed.

The work of building the Southern
Railway bridge near Oates Island is
now practically begun. A great deal
Of work has already been done but it
has largely been of preparatory ma
ture, such as installing power, getting
quarry in shape for getting out'rock,
erecting derricks and cranes and span
ming the river with cable over which
traveller runs to carry rock to the
various places needed.
The work is largely confined to this,
the western, side of the river, all the
machinery and power being on this
side of the stream. Midway across
preparations are being made to sink a
caison and build centre pier, while
on the two banks piers will be built,
work being more advanced in this par
ticular on the east side than the west.
The power is furnished by massi We
2O0-horse power boiler, with immense
fittings conveying the steam to engines
located at various points. The drum
operating the traveller ON the cable
crossing the river is controlled by two
engines, another operates the rock
crusher and mixer. The drills in the
quarry are operated by steam power,
and number of smaller engines oper.
ating derricks about the site of the
western pier are run by steam from
the same boiler. Two upright engines
on board barges do the work necessary
in mid-stream.

The symphony of the Coat.

The skirt is an effective affair and is
gathered under a cord which begins be-
low the waist line on each side Of the
front and slants upward, completing
itself at the waist line around the back.
From this cord the skirt hangs IN ample
folds upon the floor In front and IN a
slight train in the back. II is made with
deep hem.
A suitable coat 20 wear with a prin-
cess gown is shown in figure B. This
is long and cut into a sort of modified
mandarin, with a fitted yoke in the
back and seam in the center. Stopping
sharply outward TO the bottom. The
fronts of the coat are fitted TO the
shoulders under the narrow folds, which
are stitched so as 10 give something
of a bolero effect. These folds continue
in the irregular line which heads the
top of the coat where ii is attached
TO the yoke The coat fronts fasten
over with large buttons, and there Is d
slanting line at the opening. No seams
or stirchings are apparent, the rough
edges of the cloth all being held under
the satin lining.
One of the most distinctive features
in the coat Is the sleeve. which is quite
| different front any made on mandarin
| coats. and is shirred 20 the armhole and
gathered to the fur cuff. A pleat across
| the front of the sleeve makes II full and
| loose back of the elbow, where a loop
and knot of velvet are placed The col
lar is of fur.

the bodice the problem naturally takes
on an entirely new aspect
The charm Of a princess gown lies
in It's perfect lines. It's unwrinkled lit
from bust to hip and the way in which
the fullness of the skirt is worked in
so that ii does not appear to be an
effort, and falls in just the right folds
and with Just the right fullness at the
bottom OF the skirt. There is nothing
more difficult than the princess, and
one must almost have all the under

Every woman who can have n princess
will have one, and those who cannot
afford this beautiful and expensive dress
will find themselves equally smart in

only wrinkles upon IL must be those OF

be the plan of nature that women
