What might easily have been a serious
accident occurred about $50 A. NJ Thurs
day at a dump behind the house of Max
Slosberg on Bridge street, when one of
Wallace Prescotts teams, driven by Eu-
gene Herrin and attached to dumpcart
filed with dirt. got too close to the edge
of the bank and slid down into the gully
a distance of about 60 feet. When thy
finally stopped, one horse and the dump
cart were piled on .op of the other horse
and both were badly bruised and shaken
Mr. Herrn jumped when the bank gave
way and thus escaped going with his
team. and it was fortunate that he did so,
for the whirling hoofs and the humping
wagon might easily have seriously if not
fatally injured him. The horses were
led around and out of the gully. and the
automobile fire truck was used in hauling
the dumpca-t up out Of the gull. 1t is
not thought that either horse suffered Sc
rous harm

ALASKA BOATS AS
 AUXTLIARIES FOR NAVY

In urging increased apDIQpriationI for the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, E. Lester Jones, superintendent of that branch of the government service, points out in his annual report that the sur veY work bears a close relation to national defense and that his de- uartment is cooperating with the navy.
 The two new vessels which he asks for the surveys Alaska work are to be built in accord with the navy's views and in time of war would become naval auxiliaries. The same holds true of launches which he asks for Wire-drag operations in northern waters.
 Copies of the report have just been received from Washington, D. c. As usual, Superintendent Jones gives detailed attention to the needs oF Puget Sound and Alaska.
 That the coast and geodetic sur vey in its plans for survey work, for new vessels and for keeping all it's floating equipment in service the year round, has carefully considered the problem of national defense is brought out by the report in strik- ing form. Jones calls attention to the fact that the navy, the first line of defense, is dependent on the sur veys for the safe navigation of it's Empire.
