President w h. Dixon, manager
Of Dixon Colored Orphanace. at
Gilmer, tpshur county. was present
and by plrmiss on spoke OF the
work of the orphanage, saying it
was his desire to turn same over 10
the state. to the end that it might
be more properly maintained. He
stated he had had charge of the
work for sixteen years; that he had
500 acres of land. one hundred and
fifty Of which had been placed in
cultivation, with $4,000 worth Of
improvements, and that it now took
about $1,000 to care for the or
phans, having some 2S4 in the
Home; that he had cared for over
1000 colored orphan children since
the Home was opened, and had fur
nished servants to many of the best
homes in the state. Rev. Dixon had
letters from the governor, the attor-
ney general, superintendent of edu-
cation and other public officials en-
dorsing his work, and asked that
the thainber of Commerce, and its
membership Individually, write let
tiers to the saFeH4or, to their repre-
sentatiNes, and other members of the
next Legislature, commencing the
Home, and asking that it be taken
under the protecting wing of the
state. This was objected to by
Judge Groce, who said he endorsed
the work as being done at present by
President Dixon, but did not think
it wise to have the state assume
charge of same. That in his opinion
was not the way to handle such
matters. by motion and second Il

RIVER DREDGING
Government Laid
Up at Navy Yard--Marin-
erS Worried
FEAR SHIPPING
WILL BE INJURED

The government dredges Delaware and
Manhattan, and the balance Of the dredg-
ing plant that has been employed IN
maintaining work in the Delaware River
channel, have been laid up at the Phila-
delphin navy yard because of lack OF
funds to pay operating expenses.
1t costs about 100000 month Tor
this maintenance work, which has stop,
ped until Congress makes some prou-
sion for its resumption. Failure OF the
Senate 20 pass the rivers and harbors
bill has made necessary this action upon
the part of government engineers IN
charge of channel work at this port.
Maritime men are concerned over the
situation, as the depth of water at LIS
toms Point. on the shoals, is only 29.2
feet. Within month it will be only
% feet at mean low water.
If the shoaling at this and other places
in the channel is allowed to continue,
vessels OF deep draught will be forced to
wait for high tide upon entering or leav-
ing port, delay that costs money. The
port will soon lose the reputation ol
having 30-foot channel if this CON
tinues, say the mariners.
