BUSY AT THE LIGHTHOUSES.
Getting the Small Craft Ready for
Service on the River.

The fine weather of the past day or
two put the power boat owners in the
notion of taking a cruise on the river
today, and if the weather is good a large
majority Of the pleasure craft that are
in condition for service will be out for a
run. At the lighthouses yesterday after
noon busy scenes wer1 being enacted, as
the launch owners overhauled their craft
that had been lying idle since last fall, to
get them in condition to go out today.
IF the pleasant weather continues the
launches and other pleasure craft that
were taken from the water last fall, or
had their pipes disconnected and were
left overheard, will be put in condition
for service and the boating season Will
open early. 1t is stated that within the
next few days several power boats that
have been building during the winter will
be brought TO the wharf and put over
board. to be made ready for summer
service There is no dimnution in the
interest taken in boating, and the COM
ing season is expected to he one OF the
most enthusiastic ever seen, and n large
increase in the numhc;. of pleasure craft
owned here is looked for.
