and this tendency to form 3
channel is, the report states, o.
the greatest importance.
Mr.. Reed declares that the
deep channel would naturally
be continued to the gulf but
for Point au Fer Rect which
forms a dam and forces the wa
ter of the river to spread out
and divide among the small
channels formed between mud
banks.
Continuing, the report says;
"Upon examination OF the
Government chart it will be
seen that on the east side of the
bay there is no outlet and on
the west side there are only two
channels Zone in the Morgan
Cut and the other in the Mar
rows), with a very shoal clay
bank in between, forming prac
tically levee on the west side.
Between the two sides there
were six toSeven feet of water,
with several feet OF soft mud
under, extending almost to the
reef near the White Shell Keys.
"Upon examination of the
reef at this point it was found
that there are several tortuous
but deep channels, through
which the water from the inner
bay runs with great velocity to
the guilt. 1t is my opinion that
if channel some 400 feet in
width by 20 to IS in depth were
cut there the waters from the
river would seek this outlet of
their own accord and scour a
channel all the way from the
present mouth to the reef, and
as deep down as the hard clay
underlying the soft mud. This
soft mud is of varying depth,
but from measurements | have
taken | do not think there is
any doubt the obtainging OF a
Io-toot channel, on an average,
without the necessity of dredg-
ing.
"This same conclusion also
applies to the channel that will
be formed beyond the reef and
into the guilt by the natural
securing of the water. In other
words, the flow of this water
should cut the same CLASS of
channel at the new mouth, on
the outside of the reef, as it has
at its present mouth, and in
time will doubtless extend some
three miles into the gulf.
"Another point which becomes
very evident lsthe permanance of
The channel when once formed.
This is seen in the case of tn.
Did Morgan steamship passage,
instead of filling up, has
been gradually wldened and
leepened.
"1he salient point is to open
he rect and let the river do all |
t will, and then to dredge the
emainder, knowing that the
lredged channel in the clay will
emaln permanently open and
leepen rather than fill up.
s'l am confident insioe the
'ay there will be no other
york necessary.
On the outside it may be nee
ssaryto form a jetty on one side
0 protect the channel against
ne gulf currents, but would not
dvlse doing SO until the neces-
lty is demonstrated.

"Bloomer Boys" ". Versailles.

Tuesday the base bail season opened
In this city amid a hurricane Of dust, in.
termingled with mostly "Bloomer Boys
who unprecedented the fair sex with poor
success--there being but three girls in
tile game, aud they were simply figure
heads and didn't wear bloomer either.
However, the aggregation with switches
and side combs were good ball players
and held the home team down TO their
knitting for several innings, owing to
the fact that it was the first time this
season the Versailles boys had played
together, or even practiced. Dan Bowen
the old-tinie pitcher twirled the ball for
the home team and Padgett was behind
the bat. A large crowd witnessed the
game, the gate receipts being $5o.55.
Twenty. seven Eldon and Barnett fans
over on the afternoon train and
took pointers on the game. The wealth
er was chilly and good ball playing was
impossible. In the latter part Of the
game Versailles warmed up and in the
eighth inning cribbed ~ scores, with
three more to their credit in former in.
nings. The score at the close stood IS
to 4 in favor Of the home team. The
crowd was good natured, and even in
the face Of dust, wind and u chilly at.
mosphere most of the people watched
the game to the end.
The "Bloomer Girls we're evidently
Irish Boys, judging from the roster
of names on the score sheet, which
caused our spring poet to awake from
his dreams to say
The "Bloomers" we're Irish, if you care
to inquire;
There were Murphy and Casey and like
wise Mcclure,
There were Maloney and Cassidy and
then came Sullivan
And also McI'addcn, O'lIearn and
