While nremen worked this afternoon to

was attracted by the blaze to leave wick

ness.
IF you people were where you should
be-in church, she said earnestly but
with no trace of anger, you would not
be here idly looking at a fire. II you

Commerce of Washington.

The principal articles of commerce are
sand and gravel, coal, lumber, ice, cord wood,
stone, Oils. oysters, bricks, coke and gen.
eral merchandise. The receipts and ship
ments during 1909 amounted to about
7O1,907 short tons, and were estimated
to be worth about Sill. 165,319. Gen. Blk
by says the benefits to navigation from
the improvement made have been marked
Vessels of much deeper draft than those
formerly used are now engaged in this
trade. and 1t is understood that freight
rates have been materially reduced.
Gen. Bixby says that the amount re-
quired to complete the existing project,
exclusive of the unexpended balance is
$457, 7S2, and that $4,000 is required for
works of improvement and for main
tenance during the next fiscal year. It
is proposed to apply the appropriation
recommended toward extension and re-
pairs of the training dixie for the Vir-
ginia channel, dredging in the Virginia
channel, and prosecution of the project.
The additional work proposed is for the
purpose OF extension of benefits and for
the maintenance of the improvement in
serviceable condition.
Gen. Bixby says that the project for
the Improvement of the Potomac river
below Washington has been completed
and that no further appropriation is re-
quired. 1t Is estimated that $56, 900 is
required for the completion of the project
for the Improvement Of the river at
Alexandria, Va.

LET YOUR STOMACH HAVE
ITS OWN WAY.
Do Not Try to Drive and Force

Able or You Will Suffer
All the More. '

You cannot treat your stomach as some men

stomach is a patient and faithful servant and
will stand much abuse and Ill treatment before
it "balks." but when 1t does you had better go
slow with IT and not attempt to make 1t work
Some people have the mistaken idea that they
can make their stomachs work by starving them
selves. They might cure the stomach that way.
but It would take so long that they would have
no use for a stomach when they got through
The sensible way out Of the difficulty Is to let
the stomach rest IL 1t wants to and employ
substitute to do its work. F..
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will do the work Of
your stomach for you and digest your food just
as your stomach used to when it was well. You
can prove this by putting your food in q glass
jar with one Of the tablets and sufficient water
and you will see the food digested In just the
same time as the digestive fluids OF the stomach
would do 1t. That will satisfy your mind. Now.
to satisfy both your mind and body take one OF
Stusrts Dyspepsia Tablets after eating-eat all
and what you want-and you will feel in your
mind that your food is being digested because
you will feel no disturbance or weight In your
stomach in fact you will forget all about hav-
ing a stomach. Just as you did when you were
healthy boy or girl.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets act in natural
way because they contain only the natural ele-
ments Of the gastric juices and other digestive
fluids of the stomach. 1t makes no difference
what condition the stomach is in. they go right
ahead Of their accord and do their work.
They know their business and surrounding condi-
tions do not influence them in the least. They
thus relieve the weak stomach OF all its burdens
and give 1t its much needed rest and permit 1t
to become strong and healthy.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale by all
druggists at so cents box. They. are so we'll
known and their popularity is 80 great that a
druggist would think Of being out Of

Gen. Bixby's Estimates.

Liberal appropriations for public works
in the District of Columbia are advocated
by Gen. Bixby, chief Of engineers, in his
annual report to the Secretary of War,
made public today.
The existing project for the improve
ment Of the Potomac river at Washing
ton. he says, was adopted August .. 1882,
and has for its object the Improvement
of the navigation of the river by widening
and deepening it's channels, the reclama-
ton of the flats by depositing on them
the material dredged from the channels;
the freeing of the Washington channel
of sewage and the establishment Of har-
Dor lines. The estimated cost of the i'm
provement as revised in 1897 is $2,953, 900.
June 3d. 1910. was s2s14, 69975, of which
SOL ,235. 40 has been applied to main

Improvement of Potomac.
The expenditure resulted in obtaining
the following dimensioned channels by
dredging: Virginia channel, miles long.
about 500 feet wide and 90 feet deep;
Washington channel, 2N miles long, a
4OO-foot width to depth of 20 feet and
II feet, in dredging the tidal reservoir
to q depth of feet over it's entire area
Oil acres; in fully retaining the upper
and partially retaining the lower half
OF Potomac Park with the dredged mate
rial; in completing the inlet and outlet
gates: in constructing 1854 linear feet Of
sea wall around the reclaimed area and
rebuilding 14,198 linear. feet thereof; in
building 1896 linear feet of training dixie
containing about 21,21S cubic yards of
riprap). and in removing dangerous rocks
from the GEORGETOWN harbor.
The entire project is now about 90 per
cent completed. The area of land re-
claimed and partially reclaimed by these
operations is 62S acres Including reser-
Vor 739 acres). which by act of March
3, 1897. was declared to be a public park,
under the name of Potomac Park. The
upper part of this park having been
completed was turned over to the Office
of public buildings and grounds, and
was developed by that Of
flee, says Gen. Bixby, into one of the
most beautiful parks Of this country.
The work on the project during the
year consisted in making additions to
sea walls and in completing the con-
struction of the combined inlet gates
and bridge for the reservoir.
The maximum draft that could be
carried June 30 1910, at mean low water
over the shoalest part of the Washing
ton channel was 81 feet and Of the Vir-
GINA channel, ID feet.

Gen. Bixby refers to the gradual de-

the Potomac and says that while the re-
pairs made to the piers may prolong
their life to a certain extent, it is believ-
ed to be only question of time when
they will reach a stage beyond repair.

Water Supply System.

lamentations are asked for the MAIN
tenance and operation of the Washington
auueduct and its auxiliaries, including
the filtration plant. Gen. Bixby says the
filtration plant has been in continuous
operation throughout the year and the
entire water supply Of the city has been
filtered The bacteria have been reduced
from an average of $50 per cubic cent?
meter in the Mcmillan Park reservoir
water reservoir. The average turbidity
has been similarly reduced from Is to 1
parts per m1llon
The actual number of bacteria In the
city water varied from $500 to 3 per
cubic centimeter, while the number In
the river water ran from 10000 to 81.
The actual average reduction by months
varied between 39+ and o. per cent.
The total quantity of water pumped
to the filters during the year was d.
50. 10 million gallons per day.
