LOWELL CREEK PROJECT
ARMY BILL BY SENATE
The proposed Lowell Creek project:
is now a certainty for it was learned
at yesterday's Chamber of Commerce
meeting, where a letter was read from
the'delegate, that the Army appro
priation bill, passed yesterday by the;
Senate, included the item for the local i
appropriation or $100,000. This sum, j
together with the sum put up by the
city, $25,000, is available.
It was pointed out, however, that
owing to the Senate increasing the
Army appropriation a few millions,

John J. Bliss, Jamaica, N. Y.,—“If
there are any people whom I can in

who are blazing/the many trails for
us.”
The case of J. B. Gottstein vs Mary

U. S. vs. Vale, a civil abatement
case, is due to come up at the Anchor

In addition to this plausible excuse j
he has another one for making this j
journey. It will be his first real vaca- i

He has brothers and sisters in the

he will head back North again.
His many friends sincerely wish him
