KNIGHTS TEMPLAR
TO HOLD FIELD DAY
ON FRIDAY, OCT.
First Event of Its Kind in City's
History Will Be Open to
Public
While work on the river wall and
steps was not Interfered with mater
ially to-day by the heavy rains of last
evening and this morn'.ng, Stucker
Brothers Construction Company, the
contractors, were delayed at the start
oft to some extent this morning by the
effects of washouts of "All" and so on.
Charles Stucker, president of the
company, said this morning that the
most extensive delay that was en
countered perhaps was just above
North street and a little above "Hard
scrabble."
At North street one of the longest
stretches of cofferdam on the Job had
been constructed, extending practically
from the water house to beyond Fors
ter street. This has been washed out
for quite a stretch and the contrac
tors had this repair work confronting
them practically before they could
begin on the stringers at that point.
Above "Hardscrabble" tons of the "flli"
had been washed loose and this neces
sitated some quick work by the con
tracting gangs.
Pushing Work on Wall
The Stucker Brothers Construction
Company have been pushing the work
on the wall and steps as consistently
as possible and the delay this morning
has been the most serious in weeks.
And incidentally the splendid stretch
of Harrisburg's "front steps" is be
ginning to take definite shape.
From "Hardscrabble" to Hamilton
street the steps are practically com
pleted and the stringers have been
finished to Maclay. The base or foot
wall is completed nearly to that point
and the laying of the sidewalk will
fo'low amove "Hardscrabble", just as
soon as the puddling for the "fill" be
hind the wall is finished. Steam shov
els are clearing up the silt in the vicin
ity of Muench street and the big ma
chinery driven hand is being assisted
by the pick and shovel gangs.
Getting Out of High Water
Work 11 also being pushed as rapid
ly $s possible in the vicinity of the
water house and at other points where
the highest water stages are encount
ered. The wall and steps are being
pushed just above and below the wa
ter house with that idea in view.
Aside from necessitating some extra
work in clearing away debris the work
on the Front street subway was not
materially delayed by last night's
storm and the working gangs went
right along on the Job. The subway
has been partially concreted and this
job will be finished, it is expected
within a week, so that the asphalt
top can be put down within the next
ten days.
The railroad oompany engineers
hope to begin actual excavating in
Second street by the end of next week
provided a sufficient roadway can be
opened In Front street to allow
traffic to go around that way.
While the big Spring creek sewer
through the Cameron extension Is
practically complete the Nineteenth
street extension is giving the contrac
tor some trouble. Solid rock to the
depth of five to ten feet has been
struck and this requires strenuous
blasting to cut the way for the sewer.
High water in the creek delayed
the operations of the workmen on the
| Spring Creek improvement to some
extent to-day although the gangs were
kept busy at other points so as not
to tie up the job for any extensive
sections.
The wind and water did its expected
share of damage to the river dam op
eration although it did not interfere
with the construction work itself.
During the night a couple of flats
were blown loose from moorings on
the dam and these had been rescued
on their way down the river by work
men who hustled out in the driving
rain and electrical storm in an open
boat and rounded them up.
