wall at Market street this is the_pllght
In which City Commissioner William
|r Lynch and E. 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.
