DREDCE FOR
HARBOR OF
WILMINGTON
Major Raymond is Directed
by War Department to
Advertise for Bids
100000 FOR
The IMPROVEMENT

Major r. r. Raymond, United States
engineer for this district, has been
authorized by the War Department at
Washington to advertise for bids for
the building of dredge to be per-
manenty located in this harbor This
action follows the receiving of bids
from private corporations for dredg-
ing in the Christiana river. the latter
setting forth they were willing to do
the work as they have been doing IT,,
but not under the new specifications.
The special board OF engineers that
investigated the situation here, recon-
mended a permanent dredge some
time ago. Such a vessel will cost
about 100000 and will have bins
large enough TO carry from 300 to 400
tons of dredged material II will he
about $50 feet long. II is proposed to
have a dredge that will continuously
keep on the move. scooping up the
mud and sand in the channel as It
proceeds, and discharging il ashore
from specially constructed landings.
rather than pump the material
through long pipe lines
The style of dredge favored by the
special board of engineers is the
Fruehling type, a German invention,
and while the specifications do not
provide for vessel of this particular
type the principle will be adopted as
near as possible. It was in order to
give all an opportunity to bid that
no special make dredge is set forth.
The specifications also provide that
the bidders may give details of de-
sign of the dredge they will con
Etruct
Major Raymond has selected the
Indian name "Minquas" for THE
dredge. this being the original name
Of the present Christiana river. When
the Swedes settled here that was the
name of the stream. They changed
It to Christine and afterward the
name was changed to Chrstiana A
small power boat. to be used for in
Epection work and soundings will be
name Christine" while a derrick
scow also to be constructed and a
part of the dredging plant will be
known as "No. /"
Major Raymond said he understood
that the Indian name Minquas is
used to some extent as Mindua in this
city. He learned that the correct
name is Minquas

THE DREAMER.


The Rypsios passed her little gate -
She stopped her wheel to see
A brown-faocd pair who walked the
road,
Free as the wind is free;
And suddenly her tiny room
A prison seemed to be.
Her shining plates against the walls.
Her sunlit sanded floor,
The brass bound wedding chest that
held
Her linens snowy store,
The very wheel whose running died
Seemed only chains she bore
She watched the footfree gypsies
pass;
She never knew or guessed
The wishlul dream that drew them
close
The longing IN each breast

One of the daintiest, most feminine of
trimmings now favored is the butter
ny. or lace or ribbon il mods from the
chic tailored hat; of sequins and net it
completes the evening couture or trims
the gown. In making a sash the temp
tation is very great to have butterfly

An afternoon frock displaying the ut
most simplicity and occurrences in its
long, straight lines is shown in 1920.
The skirt has three broad tucks near
the feet, each headed with several
