【UTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the No

Dredger CANTON RIVER' has commenced work on the Northern side of the steamor passage through the Cambridge Reach Barrier.

Vessels approaching the Barrier should keep a careful look out for signals and slow down at a sufficient distance to prevent their wash reaching the boat at work, and proceed dead slow until well past.

On no account must a vessel pass on the Northern side of the dredger,

When A Red Flag is hoisted on a boat of any description it indicates that high explosives are on board,

When Two Black Spheres are hoisted in the vicinity of the Barrior it indicates that danger would be caused to life and pro- perty by the wash of steamers.

If owing to any reason it is unsafe for a vassol to pass the Cambridge Reach Bar- rior, A Red Triangular Shape 6 feet in height will be hoisted on the North Beacon. A vessel seeing this signal hoisted should "on no account attempt to pass.

The Crinoline Young Lady hid a deop blush behind her fan.
