SIXTH AVENUE BRIDGE RETOUCHED.
Thr l.nrge Crack W ill Not Injure tbo
I'sclulnetis of I be Structure.
Work was commenced yesterday by
C!nrk & Co., at retouching tho Sixth
avenue bridge, from which the fulso
work has lately been removed.
The removal of the . false work
nhowed n large crack between the arch
anil tho side walls, am while It wonM
In no way have any effei:t on the
stability of the Mructure It was
thought best to have the crack ef
faced. To do this It was necessary to
cut a trench along the wall and cut a
portion of it. out. This will allow the
walls to settle upon the arch and thus
close the crack. To nmke the Junc
ture water tight asphalt will be put
on, Hiiil thus there will be no sign of
moisture In the concrete. The great
strength of the material was shown
when the workmen could only with
the greatest cllllUulty make any Im
pression on the wall.
SCHOOL OPENS.
Km I uuoual Number of Pupil Arc
Kurollctl.
School opened yesterday, much to the
disgust of many of our young people,
who have been enjoying themselves
during the summer months. The num-bi-r
of pupils enrolled was very large,
exceeding treatly the record for other
years. This caused some of the school
houses t. be overcrowded, so that It
wan found necessary to re-dlslriel the
tnvn.
This caused a vast amount of trouble
as the scholars who have been changed
to. a new district would persist In apply
ing at their old building for admission.
It Is hoped that everything will be run
ning smoothly In a few days, but there
Is a great deal of work to be done.

J,"1. the s ring time, w hen the cranberries
were In blossom, there was prospe.'U of

the chiet cause of the failure. There
were two trusts in June, at Just the

these frosts were barely perceptible on
the uplands, they plajed havoc on the
lowlands and bogs. The damage was
manliest on all the crunbeiry b igs, but
it was uoteeil suspected that the loss
would be so great as has been shown
since cranberry picking began.
The pii'king was begun during the
past week, ami in the acres of bo.4S

On William Braddock's bogs there

Braddock, Chester, Heggan and other
bogs the same percentage of loss Is
rcHrted. On the Wharton bogs the
loss Is even estimated nt less than

bushels where there were 1T..UO0 bu
