in statement issued by State Bank
Commissioner E. w. Pfeiffer. Since
February of this year the gain is
100000, which, occurring the quietest
part of the banking year, according
10 Commissioner Pfeiffer, is indica-
tive of an unchecked growth of pros
perity in Colorado.
During the period in which banking
institutions of supervision of the
state made their gain of $5,0o0,0O0.
5S national banks in Colorado in
creased their resources s10,000,000.

IMPROVEMENTS
CONTEMPLATED
:. ON THE RIVER
Ways 10 be Improved al
RoCkhdven in Near
Future
Many Cars Of Cement and
Other Material is
on Hand

MANDAN, n. D., April 24.-Cap-
tain Charlesworth, who is expecting
to be called every day to Sioux City,
Iowa, to take command of the river
boat, Mandan, informed a Tribune
representative that concrete ways Will
be built at the government station
known as ~Rockhaven, three and one
half miles north of the city.
The object of the concrete ways
will be put in use by the boats on
the Missouri river, and is a new meth
Cd which has been thoroughly tested
and proved a valuable asset to the
government wherever they are in use.
Ways have been established at the
ROckhavcn station before, but were
built OF huge timbers and have been
there for several years, which natu-
rally have become almost useless.
It is expected that o.. p. Lilly, who
is in charge Of the government river
work, will return from a several
weeks absence from this locality by
the first of the month, when he will
Immediately commence the work and
in all probability will find it necessary
to employ a large number OF meh in
order to complete the work within a
period of two months, which is tho
amount of time estimated for the
work.
It is anticipated to build n ways,
and they are to be built OF solid con
crete piers or piles that are to be
sunk into the sand in order to estab-
lish a strong and lasting base. The.
parts on which the boats are to be
placed when pulled up, are to be hea-
Wy concrete over the entire IA, and
will be large enough to accommodate
the largest boat in use on the river.
Material is being received every day
and carloads Of cement are already
here and it is expected one more is
to arrive, which will make 1000 sacks
in all. Lumber is being received n
gravel is all ready for use, having
been hauled there in the winter.
...asSraa
1t will be necessary for other work
to be done at Rockhaven, inasmuch
as the large dixie was more or less
damaged by the high water this
spring, and while the dixie is being
fixed up it will likely be enlarged
and other necessary facilities added.
Upon the completion Of the men
toned improvements, this locality OF
the Missouri will be in excellent con
dtion for navigation.
