the work of the depart menl here, while Major t . A. F. Flagler chief of the district at large. My work here is to make borings to determine the sand and mud strata of the inlet. There is probably two or three feet ol sand and then a mud strata of an unascertained depth. Below thia is another sand atrata, and for the purpose of aecuring a foundation for the jellies it is necessary to make these Iwriujs to know the kind and amount of piling needed for foundation purposes. 1 will probably- be here three or (our Hays.

At the office of the Cape May Heal Rrtate Company Mr. Shield'* said: r **I know of the presence of Heybold, of course I could tell I hem how deep the mud strata is, but the go c merit has a habit of .finding these things out in its os n way. The plan of the government, as I gathered it in W ashington some time ago, is to dri\t pilings for lb? jetties on either side ol the stone wall, and build the solid work between. This aill be accotn plished in regular course in the completion of the harbor."
