Changes in Ohio River lights announced yesterday by Lieut. Col. W. P. Stokey, superintendent, Fourteenth Lighthouse District, are as follows: Owensboro Bend Light No. 2 has been moved up the river 100 yards; French island light, No. 1, moved down river 150 yards; Diamond Island light, No. 1, will now be a day mark, as it was impossible to obtain a keeper; a new white light has been established at the Fayette Bar, and it will be known as light No. 2. The original light at the point will be maintained.
