Colon, C. Z. I am going to take you
through tho completed Panama canal
on tho first vesaol to pnss acroBs tho
Isthmus from tho Atlantic ocean to
tho Pacific. True, tho canal 13 not yet
completed, and will not bo for a year
or bo, but that shall not prevent our
making tho trip now on paper.
Lot us Imagine ourselves, then, on
an ocean liner approaching the Atlan
tic or northern entranco of tho great
canal, prepared to enjoy this Initial
trip ntid to wonder at tho Bights in
Btoro for us. In that word "northern"
lies tho first surprise for many of tho
passengers who did not know that
tho canal runs not from cast to west,
but from northwest to southeast. This
seomlng anonmly Is due to tho fact
that tho Isthmus of Panama hero
trends almost oast and west.
It Is still early morning when a
watchful passenger shouts "Land,"
and all who aro up rush to tho port
rail to gnzo upon tho hilly, jungly
coast of tho Isthmus between Porto
Bollo and Colon. As tho steamship
plows swiftly through tho waters as
dIuo as ever wero thoso of tho Medi
terranean a cheer goes up from tho
deck, for wo have caught a glimpse or
the Stars and Stripes fluttering abovo
a fringo of cocoanut palms. That
marks tho location of one of tho big
forts built to protect tho canal in time
of war and Is on Margarita Island,
virtually a part of tho mainland.
Colon, flat and unplcturcsque, now
comes Into vlow, and directly ahead
of us an Immense breakwater
stretches a mile out from tho shoro
on tho right. At Its land end, on
Toro point, Is another fort whoso
great guns aro masked by tho tropical
follago.
Now wo have virtually entered tho
canal, for tho GOO-foot channel extends
far out from tho shore line. At re
duced speed wo enter Colon harbor
and the Bay of LImon and steam past
tho pretentious Washington hotel, Un
cle Sam, proprietor; tho docks ot
CJolon, crowded with Bhlpplug from
the United States, Europe and many
a port of Latin America, and tho
American town of Cristobal on whoso
water front stands tho statue of Co
lumbus Bent over long years ago by
tho EmpresB Eugenic. Skipping nbout
tho bay, looking like long, black water
"beetles, aro tho cayukaB or natlvo dug
outs, and moving lazily before tho sea
breeze are tho little, sailing craft In
which tho queer San Bias Indians aro
cringing their products to market.
Four miles and a half wo Bteam
through LImon bay and tho shores
narrow in on our 500-foot channel,
still at tldo level. Now look ahead
thrco miles and get a gllmpso of tho
Catun locks, that tremendous flight of
three water steps up which wo aro to,
he lifted. In a few minute wo reach
tho towering dividing wall cf concrete,
our own powor is shut off and tho
electric locomotives on tho lock walls
tako us In tow. Four of these power
ful machines attach their hawsers to
our ship, two in front to pull it and two
astern to keep It steady and to bring
It to a stop when entirely within the
lock chamber. Tho immenso gates
close silently behind us and at once
the water begins to flow into the
chamber through culverts that havo
their openings In tho concreto floor.
Slowly tho vessel rises until It 1b on
a Ipvel with the second chamber,
28 1-3 feet abovo sea level, when the
gate ahead 1b opened and tho electric J
mules move forward, this time up a
heavy grade by means of tho centor
racks In the tracks. Twice this opera
tion Is repeated, and now wo are at
the summit, 85 feet above tho sea.
Tho last gate opens and tho locomo
tives pull ub into Gatun lake.
I Ao our propellers begin to turn
again and wo Bteam out Into this lm
znenso artificial lake, a'marvelously
beautiful landscape Is spread before
.us. The surface of tho lako Is plotted
with islets, onco tho summits of Tiger
"hill. Lion hill and a dozen other emi
nences; on both sides aro steep pro
montories, lovely little peninsulas and
'deep bays and inlets whore tho water
vihas spread Into the 'onco junglo-flllod
.valleys.
I Before we get too far from tho
locks, let us step to tho starboard rail
and have a look at tho Gatun dam,
enormous stretch of rock, sand and
clay that has formed Gatun lako by
Impounding tho waters of tho Chagres
river. It Is In reality n low rldgo, one
and a half miles long, built ncross tho
valley, and when wo aro told that it
Is nearly half a mile wldo at its base,
400 feot wldo at tho wnter surface and
100 foot wldo at Its creat, which Is
twenty feet nb6vo tho lovel of tho
lake, how utterly ridiculous seom tho
fearB of thoso alarmists who predicted
the dam would be pushed over by the
Chagres In time of flood!
0-
: 1
Nearly In tho, center of tho dam wo
can see tho famous spllhvny through
which pass tho surplus waters of tho
Chagres. It Is a concreto lined chan
nel 2S5 feet wldo cut through a hill
of rock and across It Ib built a curved
dam of concrete on top of which is a
row of regulating gates. Just below
tho spillway, out of our sight, Is tho
hydroelectric Btatlon which Buppllos
power for tho operation of tho entlro
canal nnd tho lighting of tho wholo
zone.
Our channel through the lake for
wo still must follow a path Indicated
by raugo towers on the shores Is
now a thousand feet wido and loads
us somewhat tortuously through a
mazo of Islands. Look down as wo
near somo of them and you will Beo
below tho surface tho tops of giant
trees. For we aro Balling over what
but a few months ngo was tho valloy
of tho Chagres, dense with tropic
vegetation and dotted with natlvo vil
lages surrounded by banana and co
coanut plantations. Closo to tho
shores tho stoutest of tho trees still
stretch their naked, dead limbs abovo
tho water, but beforo long these, too,
will have rotted and fallen, leaving
tho luxuriant landscape unmarrcd.
Passing over the sites of Bohlo,
Frljolea nnd Chngresito, wo now come
to tho placo whero Tabcrnllla once
stood, and hero both lake and channel
nnrrow down, tho latter bolng llrst
800, then 700 and flnnlly 500 feet wldo.
On tho hillsides to tho right stand a
few abandoned houses, all that re
mains of Mainel, Juan Grando, Gor
Bona and Mntnchln, busy places while
tho canal was building, now covered
by tho spreading waters. Along the
left shoro of tho channel runs tho re
located Panama railway and hero nt
Gamboa It crosseo the Chagres rlveri
which our vessel now leaves to enter
the far famed Culebra cut. This great
gash through tho spine of the conti
nent Is 300 feet wldo nt the bottom,
but, becauso of tho tremendous earth
slides which cost Undo Sam so much
money nnd time, its width at tho top
is astonishing, being halt n mllo just
hero opposite tho town of Culebra.
Beyond, on our left, towers Gold hill,
195 feet abovo tho bottom of tho ca
nal. Far up on Us rocky slopo wo dis
cern a streak of white paint which
marks tho level to which tho French
company carried its excavations.
Nearly opposite Is Contractor's hill,
304 feot high. As wo move between
theso, tho loftiest hills along tho
route, and pass the location of that
notorious "cockroach," tho Cucnracha
slide, tho Pedro Miguel lock stands
before us, white in tho noonday sun.
This, n Binglo flight lock, is 30 feet
high, tho highest on tho canal. Again
wo aro taken in tow by electric mules
and in less than half an hour wo havo
been lowered thoso 30 feot and steam
Into another artificial body of wator,
Mlraflorcs lake, only a mllo lon,g. At
Its southern end wo pass the town ot
Mlraflorcs and enter tho locks ot tho
samo namo, a doublo flight that lots
us down once more to sea level.
The exciting part of the passage Is
over, but there 1b yot much of interest
to seo. Down tho broad channel wo
look clear out onto tho glittering
waters of tho Pacific ocean. Nearer
at hand, on tho left, Ancon hill raises
Its verdure-clad summit, and clustered
on its slopes wo seo tho many struc
tures of the big hospital, the new
administration buildings of tho canal
and tho barracks of tho marines. And
now, steaming botwoen llllcd-ln swamp
lands, wo come to Balboa, which tho
government has mado Into a flno naval
station, with nn Immense dry dock
and extenslvo machine shops.
Stretching out from Balboa Into tho
Pacific is a breakwater, two miles
long, which protects tho harbor from
storms. At its outer end Is a cluster
of little Islands, Naos, Pcrlco, Culebra
and Flamenco, and here wo pass
under tho powerful guns that guard
tho Pacific end of tho canal. Thoy
aro mounted high up on tho summits
of theso rock islotB, rifled cannon, ow
shot from which would sink a battle
Bhlp, and huge mortars whoso Bholls
can bo dropped behind Tobago island
12 miles away In tho direction ot
Japan.
In ten hours wo hnvo crossed
through tho continent and now float
on tho broad Pacific. As wo look
back tho picturesque city of Panama
Hcb bathed In tho light of tho wester
ing Bun and on tho Bide of Ancon hill
shlni'B tho big whlto Tivoli hotel. The
sudden night ot tho tropics Is soon to
fall, and already, as far back as we
can seo along our route and beside the
ocean channel, aro twinkling the
lights that Uncle Snm has Dot up to

this most wonderful of canals which
he has built.

11 Kcntcnco of thirty years for murder
in the second degree. Governor Aid
rich commuted this to ten years' full

the prisoner, argued beforo tho court
that the governor has no authority to
deprive a convict of good tlmo earned
ha this allowance Is ouo ot tho ele

for by law. Under the terms of tho
commutation by tho governor, tho

the governor had a right to cut oft

commutation Issued by Governor Aid
rjch is void, and tho prisoner will bo
obliged to remain to servo his thirty
year sentence unless somo other gov

Mr. Rldgcll, "I hopo to havo the salo

my opinion It Is useless to mourn tho

It Is Interesting as a contemporaneous
account of tho battle of Oolustco aud
reads as follows:
Camp of the Seventh Connecticut
Camp of tho Seventh Connecticut
Volunteers, Near Jacksonville,
Fla March 18, 1864.
T. M. Clark Dear sir: In readtiifi
the Inst Issuo of tho Herald I notice
lu thu account given of the battle ot
Oolusteo that tho Fifty-fourth Massa
chusetts nnd First North Carolina
(colored regiments) covered the re
treat. Now, for the benefit of tho
people of thu state from which wo
hall 1 wish to correct this, for 1 do
believe that thoy wish to havo all tho
credit that Is duo them, through their
foiis who aro lighting for their honor,
as well as that of our common coun
try. Wo have no special correspond
ent to speak a truthful word for uh;
therefore, It Is seldom that wo got
much If any credit for tho part taken
by us In the engagements lu which
Connecticut troops havo borne as con
iiplciious a part as tho troops from
other stntes. Such Ih tho case with
tho battlo of Oolustee. Tho Seventh
Connecticut was tho Hrst Into It and
tho last out. I know no better way of
proving my statement concerning tho
matter than to glvo you tho words of
our commanding general. Colonel
Hnwloy's brigade, composed of tho
Seventh Now Hampshire, Eighth Unit
ed States Colored Infantry nnd Sov
cnth Connecticut, was second In tho
advance, Colonel Henry's Light Hrl
gado being tho Hrst. Threo tnllcH be
yond Sanderson, by order of General
Seymour, tho Seventh wns brought to
the front nnd into position ns skir
mishers, aud moved on, driving beforo
them a squadron of rebel cavalry.
This was kept up until wo came up
with tho main body, exchanging shots
with a force of rebels posted In rlllo
pltB and In a dense wood. At this
plnce, and In position as skirmishers,
tlio force of tho enemy was kept at
bay for about 20 minutes, after which
wo retired to tho rear In regular skir
mishing order, unmnsklug our advanc
ing column to tho enemy. When to
tho rear tho regiment formed, took' a
new supply of ammunition, and ad
vanced ngnln, filling n gup In tho ccn-
.tor, whero they fought with it will.
After tho light was over, boforo the
rotreat was ordered, tho regiment wns
in lino of battle. Colonel J lawloy wns
sitting near us upon his horso. Gen
eral Seymour rodo up and said: "Colo
nel, I wish to havo your regiment net
ns roar guard; thoro will bo a com
pany of cavalry still lu your renr."
Aftor telling how ho wished It conduct
ed ho nld: "I hato to ask UiIb of you,
colonel, but thero Is not a regiment
that I havo tho confidence In that I
hnvo In tho Seventh Connecticut."
ThlB was enough. They took their po
sition nnd conducted tho retreat
through to Barber'B Ford, arriving
thereabout three o'clock on tho morn
ing of tho twenty-first. After resting
until seven o'clock tho retreat was
agnln commenced. By General Sey
mour's order tho Sovcnth was again J
retained for rear guard. Whllo tho
regiment was In line, waiting for nil
oilier troops to pass, General Soymour
rodo up In front of tho lino, took off
his hat, nnd said: "Men of the Sev
enth Connecticut, I am happy to say
to you that I am satisfied with what
you have done; you have dono nil I
could ask; you have dono your duty
and dono It well." Tho regiment for
a second tlmo took Its position ns rear
guard, and marched to Baldwin's.
Here they had a grand tlmo rummag
ing tho knapsacks which had been loft
by other regiments. Although tired,
hungry and footsore, they wero not
allowed to sleep. Details were made
for fatigue duty, to load cars with pro
visions, etc., one company volunteer
ing to push u train of six cars to Jack
sonville, a distance of 20 miles. Tho
rest destroyed such provisions, ammu
nition, etc., as could not ho got away,
burning railroad bridges, cutting down
trees to Impede tho progress of tho
enemy, nnd In tho morning started for
Jacksonville, passing Henry's Battery
and Massachusetts cavalry at Camp
Flnegnn, whero they were on picket,
arriving at Jacksonville on the twenty
second at 9:00 p. ra. Thus ended tho
battlo of Oolustee, alias "Flnogan'a
Ball."
Since our arrival at Jacksonville ev
erything hns boon quiet except an oc
casional Bcaro, tho result of a few
picket shots. Tho boys have had no
tents since leaving St. Helena.

"I'll bet anyone $5," said one, "thnt

"Yo will, will ye?" drawled a com
rade. "Well, I'll tako yo on. I'll bet
$10 ag'iu your $5 that my nnmo'll

"Done," said he. "I've got the hard

CUBS' FOOD
Thsy Thrive on Grape-Nuts.
Healthybables -don't cry and the
Well-nourished baby that Is fed oa
Grape-Nuts Is never a crying baby.
Many babies who cannot take any
other food relish the perfect food,

"My baby was given up by three
doctors who said that the condensed
milk on which I bad fed her bad
ruined the child's stomach. One ot
the doctors told me that the only
thing to do would bo to try Grape
Nuts, so I got some and prepared It as
follows: I soaked lVs tablcspoonfuls
In one pint of cold water for halt an
hour, then I strained off tho liquid and
mixed 12 teaapoonfuls of this strained
Grape-Nuts Juice with six teaapoonfuls
of rich milk, put In a pinch of salt nnd
a little sugar, warmed It and gave It
to baby every two hours.
"In this slmplo, ensy way r saved
baby's llfo and havo built her up to a
strong, healthy child, rosy and laugh

ted to have such n wonderful effect
as this. I can truthfully say I think
it Is tho best food in tho world to
ralso dollcato babies on and Is also a
delicious henlthful food for grown-ups
as tfo havo discovered In our family."
