W. Cowden, engineer in charge, find themselves; the final completion of the work in time for nig municipal celebration may be possible because of a lack of eno. S workmen. Men have come and men have gone, says Messrs. Lynch and Cowden, but there is plenty of chance for more to find a steady job until the improve completed. Men of some ability, of course, are preferred for the work; men, the engineer explained yesterday, who can command 25 or 30 cents an hour. The fact that some of the work has to be done In the water r.oesn't appeal as a rule to most of the laborers who apply. Tc date about two dozen stringers are In place, the foot wall Is com pleted for a like distance and five flights or sections of steps have heen placed In forms. A considerable por- Hon of the old clock wall yet remains to be blasted out. but this will be done this week, it is expected. Another cofferdam has been constructed to a foint beyond this wall. Busy On the Dam While the Job is not proceeding as rapidly as could be expected, perhaps, both Commissioner Lynch and Mr. Cowden are still confident of finishing the work by Thursday. If the final touches are not. added by that time a lemporary walk will be constructed across the gap for the accommodation of the thousands who will promenade past that point. Market street, inci dentally, will be one of the most Im portant points on the river front dur ing the water sports; just sevanty-flve above the bridge the finish tapes for all the racei will be stretched. Lifting of the concrete slabs to the top tier of the dam from the river ted was begun yesterday by David Weiser, a river contractor. He was given the contract to place the hun dred or rrtore slabs on the dam. While he has agreed to finish the job In ten days, he will get an extra ten-day bonus of sl4 a day if he completes the work In that time. BIG WATER CARNIVAL BLAZE OF SPLENDOR [Continued "From First I'nge.] popular and a very effective display 1 is to merely cover a numbef of Japa- ; nese lanterns with the same color of • crepe tissue paper, which is the best possible material to use by reason of its diaphanous quality. The impor tant thing ris to have the float well illuminated, tor no matter how perfect ■ the design, it must be well lighted tb show up. The fertile brains of the young people can manufacture the best ideas; Tennyson's story of the fair Elaine whose body was floafed down the river, or King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table would make stunning effects. All Together. Xow! It Is something along the above lines that will delight all Harrisburg and its visitors next Friday evening. if all the owners of boats co-operate and spend a little time in decorating. One is sur prised at the simplicity of the work required to accomplish the most won derful designs and spectacles. Fortu nate, indeed, are ..those who possess canoes and rowbeats. for even though they may not be able to erect a big framework of light and beauty, they can still hang a few Japanese lanterns, say three or four, on a wire or light rope stretched l'rom two slim poles nailed to either end of the boat; in this way each additional canoe and rowboat will add very materially to the splendor of the carnival. Much ingenuity and originality is being shown in building the floats and it is expected that next Friday evening will be one that will not soon be for gotten. The success of the carnival depends upon individual initiative, but there need be no fear on that score if ihe people of Harrisburg co-operate in this as they have in every other im portant undertaking. The committee in charge of the river carnival will in all probability define certain boun daries on the river that evening within which will be allowed only those craft which show a certain number of lights. Get Busy Get busy and carry out the old canoe you thought yoji would never ; use again. You will need it next week. Ask your friends to spend the evening on the river with you. The carnival will be more interesting if you are a part of it and you have an oppor tunity of increasing the beauty of the sight which will delight and give en joyment to those landlubbers who are less fortunate than you. ii.
