The big dredge Is steadily at work again, this time going over the same ground that they did last year, near the bend by the ball park. It will be remembered that a large part of the stone work was not blasted deep enough to get down to the grade, although the holes had been drilled a couple of feet below that point. These holes were all drilled over again and then reblasted, most of them this spring. The’last blasting has left the bottom of the channel very uneven, which makes the dredging all the more difficult, but this time over will probably finish the channel for good. There are no large pieces of rock being taken/ out of the channel where at work now, and a great deal of it is very fine, almost ready for the road in fact. Quick deliveries —Home Grocery.

Before the end of next week the blasting in the river channel will have been completed, and the solid stone formation that in the natural order of things it has taken hundreds of thousands of years to put together will be but a mass of broken, shapeless ruins. The bombardment of nature’s most enduring work, which has been going on for several weeks will have ceased and the housewives living in the vicinity of the work will have regained a normal condition of nerves. However, they can not be blamed for being a little nervous when they hear the “b-o-o-m” of the blast, and can look forward with certainty to a shower of tocks, many of them big enough to kill the g. o. p. elephant, to rain down on their roof, trees and lawns.
