              A heavy fog on Monday night and the pier bell tolled
            for some time.
            
              The last section of the equinoctial came along this
            week, delaying boats and making the weather generally
            disagreeable.
            
              The fishing tug ARTIE WARD was slightly disabled in
            her machinery while coming in from her fishing grounds
            Tuesday. The SWEET BROS., also coming in about the same
            time, towed the WARD into port.
            
              The government supply steamer DAHLIA was in port
            Tuesday.
            
              Several sail and steam craft made this port for shelter
            from the heavy sea the middle of this week.
            
              The LORA came over from Chicago through the heavy sea
            on Wednesday night. It was terribly rough but she made
            the trip all right - as she always does.
