Some permanent improvements are be-

concrete piers are being built on which
will be erected two steel bridge spans
sixty feet long between the piers. The
few past winters the heavy ice has broken
many pilings from under the wharf and
made frequent repairs expensive. By
having concrete piers wide enough apart
to allow the ice to pass under the wharf
it is hoped to have a more permanent
wharf and less expensive repairs. The
steel bridge spans will be sixteen feet
wide for a driveway.

Schooner Capsized.

The boat Rambler, Capt. d. A. Eng
lish, rescued Capt. Roy Slaughter and
Willard Jones from drowning in the Del
aware river below Deep Water Point on
Thursday OF last week. Their schooner
Taylor was struck by a puff OF wind,
capsized and sank at the edge of the
western channel with only stone ballast
aboard. they were on their way to
Leipsic, Del, after discharging a load of
oyste RS in Wilmington.
Capt. English landed them at Pedrick-
own and they went to Wilmington.
The schooner was raised OF Monday
by a dredging machine and taken ashore
off Pigeon Point.
The diver at work on the schooner
found that the boat rested upon a barge
that had but eight feet of water over it
and it is supposed that the barge is one
of several lost during the storm, while
the channel was being dredged, about
three years ago. 1t was torn apart and
removed by the dredge.

SUFFRAGET FIGHT
is ON IN FRISCO
Campaign Has Been a Hot
One and Both Sides
Are Confident

san Francisco, Cal. Oct 9.-After a
WnlrlWtnd campaign. conducted with an
orderly effectiveness that rivals the
most successful political campaign Of
mere man" within the history Of Cali
rornia, the Equal Suffrage associa ton
is predicting victory today at the poles,
while the anti-Suffragists are no less
certain that the voters viii turn down
the proposed amendment to the state
constitution allowing women to vote.
The campaign has been the hardest
Fought political contest this state has
ever seen The territory has been ap-
pOruoned among the women ma king
the fight; throw-aWays. posters and
banners have been displayed every
where, and for the past week san FRAN
cisco has been the scene of speeches
rallies and parades; while prominent
women from all quarters of the Duirel
states have sought to clinch the pre-
dicted victory with eleventh hour ora
tory.
In other parts of the state the excite
ment has been no less intense. The Los
Angeles suffragists riYalled in zeal
their sisters in san Francisco. A gi-
gantlc mass meeting closed the cam
paign, and thousands of posters were
distributed bearing the Inscription
Why Shouldn't Ny Mother Vote? %
Oakland was also the scene Of pre-
election enthusiasm, and reports from
the far corners Of the state indicate that
the rs omen have CamDaigned thorough
" and been well received.
On the other side of the political fence
the "antis under the leadership Of for
mer United States senators Frank p
Flint and Cornelius Cole, have spared
10 pains to mould the popular vote
against the measure. They have fol-
lowed the suffragets into the peoples
homes with arguments against the
adoption of the amendment. have sought
by ridicule to sway the voters, and have
organized opposition meetings wherever
the women were scheduled to speak.
