MAKE BIG lMPROvEMiN :
ALONG THE RIVER FRONT
Dyke To Be Built and the River Banks
Walled Up to Keep Channel In

Probably the most extensive Inn
provements will occur directly In the
neighborhood OF the railroad bridge.
The changes wrought in the river
channel at this point last week was
astonishing. When the work Of re-
pair was started on the bridge 1t was
found that where rs feet OF piling
had been suficient previously It was
necessary to put in 100 additional
feet. the river which formerly flowed
under the bridge proper now being
directed under this new piling. With
this change in the river course . bar
was formed just west Of the bridge.
and in order to direct It back TO the
old course q channel will have to be
cut through this bar which. when
completed. will be strongly walled ON
each side. the present channel In the
meantime being filled In whith mater
ial also from excavation. after which
the new plling put in will be removed.
The improvements will probably
