cONGRATULAT TO
 ARCHBISHOP FARLEY
Prospective Cardinal Already Being
 Greeted as "His En1inence."

New York, Oct. 29.-Archbishop John M Farley was greeted as This eni- hence" in congratulatory messages and visits which he received today from his admirers in ana out of the church, The archbishop did not receive any official confirmation today from the holy see of the news brought to him in Associated Press despatches last night of his elevation to the cardinal ate. Semi official messages which came to him, however, apparently forced up- on him belief that the good news was true and he made no attempt to con- ceal his qualification.
 Two of the congratulating messages which particularly pleased his grace were from Mgr. Kennedy of the Amer ican college in Rome, and Cardinal Logue, prirnate of Ireland. Notwith- standing these and equally trustworthy advices, the archbishop declined toda. to add anything to his statement last night that he could not accept the good news as a fact until it was off cially announced.
 For nine years. Cardinal designate Farley has been archbishop of New York. and in that capacity he has had cfla1 ge of Catholic population of 2,722,547: 1,2S0 churches; 1850 priests, and 469 parochial schools. He has cleared St. Patrick's cathedral of a property within the archdiocese is reckoned at over s255, 5,oo0,O00, on which there is only debt of about BPS ,000,- 900.

and All.

George w. Walker. who is in
charge of the construction work of
the Second street bridge and dam,
took advantage of the nice weather
this week to push the work of get
ting in the forms for the eastern
pier and the eastern half of the dam.
This work was finished yesterday and
the forms are now ready for the con-
crete. The foundation for the dam
and piers is perfect, being altogeth-
er of bedrock, within foot of the
surface. The fill for the approach
on the east side is being made with
earth taken from the Elks Home
basement. With one more week of
good weather, the dam will reach
a point where high water will not
be so much dreaded. The contract
calls for its completion by Dec. 49,
The bridge itself was to be up by
Nov. 20, but the piers will not be
ready for two weeks.

Been Made At Riverside
Cemetery.
STONE MEMORIAL POSTS
Upon Which viii Be Subscribed
The Names of Revolution
airy Soldiers.

The extensive improvements at
the southern entrance to Riverside
Cemetery have been about complet-
ed and are very handsome and ele-
CANT in the design. The work was
done by Mr.. l.. H. Davis, the con-
tractor, and the design was
his own. There are four large stone
columns in the center, of dressed
Bowling Green stone, about 80 inches
square and eight feet high, sur
mounted by ornamental caps Of the
same material. These posts sup.
port two iron double gates and be-
tween the pairs of posts is another
iron gate for pedestrians. At the
two sides of the entrance, 100 feet
wide, there are smaller posts of the
same kind, and the iron fence ex-
tends to these. The driveways in.
side are separated by row of ma
pie trees and there are TWO other
rows on the sides. On each side of
the central row are handsome con-
crete walks that merge into one
broad walk when the cemetery itself
is reached and this walk extends
we'll up into the grounds. The i'm
provements cost more than $4,000
and the driveways. which have been
raised two or three feet, are yet to
be macadamized. The work was
done under the direction of the
Cemetery Committee composed of
Councilman A. w. Wood, Geo. E.
Randle and N. A. Barnett.
