HE American steam shovel and all Rteam
shovels are of American manufacture
marks au era la man's conquest of nature.
One of the most powerful of the tools that
steaiu and steel have made possible. It
ranks among ihe greatest labor savers and
wealth producers engineering genius has
de vised. These grunting Titans, although almost un
known beyond the shores of America, are adding hun
dreds of millions of dollars to the world's wealth
fltid doing the work of armies of men. Whether
digging the big canal across the Isthmus of Panama,
loading ore trains on the lake iron ranges, leading new
railroads across the Rockies, tearing away the mineral
ized Avails of Western canyons, making huge excava
tions in the rocky floor of Manhattan Island, stripping
-oal veins in Pennsylvania, quarrying railroad ballast In
the Mohawk valley, or delving for copper In Spain,
where once tolled the slaves of the Caesars the steam
shove! tells a splendid story of the American Indus
trial advance.
The biggest user of steam shovels In tho United States
is the Steel Corporation. That Is why the trust com
mands the Iron ore market. The millions of dollars a
year that the trust saves by using steam shovels would
pay the dividends on a good share of the half billion
lollars of common stock. Up in one of the great open
' cut iron mines In Minnesota ore Is mined and carried
away with amazing speed. The mines are worked from
the surface by open cut, as a reservoir or canal would
be dug. Over railroad tracks run through the pit the
bis ore trains are hauled alongside the giant shovels.
One nhovel, picking up six tons of ore at each assault
on the ore bank, loads a fifty-ton steel car in three min
utes. Trainload after trainload of ore is hauled away
to the ore docks at the head of the lakes, there to be
put aboard the big lake ore ships at a speed of 300 tons
a minute.
The Panama canal job has recently thrown the Amer
ican steam shovel In the limelight before the world.
When our government undertook the task that had baf
fled the world's engineers, and promised that it would
he completed within a few years, even the American
people were skeptical. Tint the engineers who planned
the work knew tho possibilities of steam shovel excava
tionthen untiled on big canal work. They had seen
giant shovels in Iron mines and stone quarries, and
they knew that steam shovels and dynamite could mako
mountains disappear. The government put In the big
gest order for steam shovels ever given lt the country.
These shovels were sent In ships to the Isthmus as fast
as they could be made. Now there are more than a
hundred shovels cutting the canal from ocean to ocean,
and making world records In heavy excavation work.
Just as American steam shovels have revolutionized
Iron milling and copper mining, so have they revolu
tionized canal digging. When the Erie canal was built,
In the '20s, the pick and shovel, the wheelbarrow and
the wagon, were the only tools In excavation work.
The Suez canal cut was 80,000,000 cubic yards. It
took ten years to do the work, even though most of it
was sand. The Panama canal calls for 140,000,000 cubic
yards of rock and earth excavation and dredging. Last
year 35,000,000 yards were completed, or nearly half
as much work as was done on the whole Suez canal.
On the central division, which Includes the Culebra rock
cut. the steam shovels did 50,000 yards a day. 1,500,000
yards a month This steam-shovel performance on the
Tanama canal makes the Suez canal construction look
like digging a sewer trench.
The first steam shovels were used In railroad con
struction, and they now are part of the working equip
ment of every Important railroad In the country. Every
big contractor has his battery of shovels; some con
tractors have scores of them at work from ocean to
ocean In the rebuilding of American railroads, espe
cially through the mountains of the West, where enor
mous quantities of rock had to be handled In reducing
grades and curves, the steam shovel was of Invaluable
service. Harrlman, In rebuilding the Union and South
ern Pacifies, tore away mountains and filled up canyons
with steam shovels. On the new lines that have been
built to the coast the St. Paul, the Western Pacific,
and Clark's road the steam shovel has made new rec
ords In railroad construction. Many millions of dol
lars have been saved, and Improvement work, of hither
to prohibitive cost, has been made possible.

the story was heard that she was the

thirteen children were each granted

"Petty stealing, cheap graft it's not

The head of the firm was angry.
"Send for that collector," he said.
The collector came.
"Seems to be too much work for
you," the managing partner said.
"Probably you need help."
The collector believed another man
would be a valuable addition to the

said, and-then, reading from a slip:
"March 3 Left store 8:30; went to

Bnapped. "Now, do you desire to
work, help pay the expense of the de

good, or will you quit now?"
"1 believe I'd like to work it out,"
the trembling collector replied.
"Well, get a move on you. then,"

DIAGRAM EXPLAINING A DANGEROUS TEST.
HILE there are many to question the value of the submarina
as an engine of war and many to hold the opposite view, there
are very fow with sufficient hardihood to deny that the typo
is dangerous for those who man them, whatever they may be
to an enemy. The very nature of their mission makes them
heir to more different kinds of danger than any other craft
that floats or sinks. Those who believe in them have as
serted, that they are immune from many of the ordinary perils of the sea,
that they have no boilers to burst, no masts to carry, no rigging to be
strained, no sails to spilt, and no concern about stormy weather, as they can
plunge beneath the surface when seas run high.
Ensign Kenneth Whiting, at present in command of tho submarine Por
poise, now stationed at Manila, a few weeks ago took his vessel out into
the bay, and, with a small boat in attendance, undertook an experiment that
has made htm famous.
The young ensign had conceived the Idea that a man could make his
way out from a submarine by way of the torpedo tube. A torpedo Is the
only weapon that a submarine carries, and as the boat must discharge the
missile while submerged It follows that there must necessarily be some ap
pliance for ejecting the missile and closing the orlflco Immediately after dis
charge. The little that Is known of Ensign Whiting's exploit is contained In the
official report which the cemmander of the submarine flotilla recently for
warded to the Navy Department at Washington, and which the department
I romulgated in circular form, to bo read on the quarterdeck of every vessel
in commission. It says:
"Ensign Whiting entered tho torpedo tube of the Porpoise through tho
after door of tho tube, the cap cf tho forward door bolng closed. He
then grasped the strong back of tho crossbar of the cap and ordered the
after floor closed. As soon as the after do:)r was closed the gunner's mate
stationed at the cap engine opened tho cap. The cap in opening forward
and up hauled Em-ign Whiting clear cf the tube, so as to enable him to use
his arms to come to tho surface and to prevent his being shoved back Into
th-? tube by inrushlng water. The whole operation consumed about seventy
five seconds."
This same Porpoise came perilously near drowning her entire crew a
few ye;irs ago. The vessel was maneuvering around Newport when she sud
denly showed a disposition to ee?k the bottom. S!;e quickly found It, and
came to rest on the seabed. Overhead was a hundred feet of water. Too
much water had been taken in as ballast and something had gone wrong
with the automatic valve which should have controlled the Inrush. Luckily
a hand pump was found, and, working for their lives In the fast vltiuting
air, the crew managed to force out enough water from the ballast tanks to
