Whether it it will be a sea level canal or a canal with locks is yet au open question If the latter plan be adopted th n the question of how high abov S a leel it shall be remains to be faxbueA Yuen there is the plan of M XftUMKl Varilla who advocates a strtiit if IPiama to divide the west ern continent like another Bosporus and which he declares would be the best and- eventually the cheapest water way threvgh the isthmus His idea is that the cinal should first be construct ed with a summit level 130 feet above tho sea and with dams and locks This he thinks coiKd be done in about four years and the canal could be opened to commerce It would then be making money and while ships went on their way the process of lowering the level to the sea could go on until there was a ship canal from the Atlantic to the Pacific forty five feet deep and 500 feet wide It is conceded by the advocates of a sea level canal that it will require much more time and money for its con struction than a lock canal would The estimated cost of such a waterway is 230000000 and the time in which it could be constructed is put at fifteen years The advisory board of engineers has reported in favor of this plan and its decision was reached by a vote in which eight stood for the sea level plan and five for the lock canal The five engineers who voted for a lock canal will submit a minority report and the president will lay the two reports be fore the canal commission and tho chief engineer of the canal for consid eration The foreign members of the advisory board were all for a sea level canal but in the minds of five out of the eight American engineers the ad vantages of such a canal were not suf ficient to outweigh the delay involved The appropriation of G0000000 which congress made at the time it was decided to go ahead and build a canal at Panama has now been ex pended Of this 40000000 went to THEODORE P SHOKTS pay the French claims The sum of 10000000 went to the republic of Panama and much of the remaining 10000000 has been spent in surreys in the purchase of supplies In work in Culebra cut and in sanitation Secre tary Taft and a party of congressmen made a trip to the isthmus to inspect the progress of the enterprise last spring Theodore P Shonts has be come chairman of the commission and John P Stevens has succeeded John n Wallace ast chief engineer Consid erable work has been done In the Cule bra cut where the Freuch started work under De Lesseps This has to be done whether a sea level or a lock canal is dug for the way must be cut through a mountain range and though the ca nal crosses this range at its lowest point the hills in the neighborhood are over 300 feet above sea level Large and perplexing as are the engi neering problems in connection with the enterprise they are hardly so dis couraging as the problem of labor In timately connected with this subject is that of sanitation for it Is evident that if the death rate of those working on the project is high its cost will be pro portionately great The native work men are very lazy It is suggested that the best results could be accomplished with negroes from the southern states If they could be persuaded to emigrate in sufficient numbers but just there lies the difficulty Although the em ployment of Ital ians Hungarians and Poles in large numbers has been urged it is a ques tion whether they could long withstand the climate and the present chief engi neer Is understood to be in favor of having the canal secretary w h dug by Chinese coo taft les To niaije the men at present employed in the en terprise as common laborers better contented with their lot the commission not long since contrived to Import a cargo of wives and sweethearts The first shipload came from

th Indulgence of making puns the fact has not been recorded In the pages of history One pun how ever Is assigned to King Frederick William IV of Prussia It Is said that on the occasion of a court ball ho wns standing near the middle of the dance hall in conversa tion with an exceedingly thin ambas sador In the haste and excitement of a fiery galop a lieutenant of the hussars danced with his partner be tween the monarch and the person whom he was addressing and then seeing what he had done he began to stammer abject apologies and explana tions Oh that was nothing replied the king with a nearty laugh A hussar must go without fear through thick and thin A whimsical glance from his own portly figure to that of the slender am bassador accompanied this answer and the hussar felt himself not only par doned but Invited to share in tho kings laugh Servlnjj PlHh Fish is dainty food Practice is need ed in serving it Lightness of touch and dexterity of management are nec essary to keep the delicate

fish Dress the edge of the platter with hard egg and sliced lemon tomato and beets An Ivory Mat Many people have never even heard of such a thing and it Is not to be wondered at for these mats are ex ceedingly rare and it Ib said by those who know that only three of these beautiful curiosities exist in the whole world The one we now write about is the largest one made It measures 8 by 4 feet and though made in a small hill state in the north of India has an almost Greek design for Its border It was only used on state occasions when the rajah sat on it to sign Important documents The original cost of the mat Is fabulous for 0400 pounds of ivory were used in Its manufacture The fin est strips of ivory must have been tak en off the tusks as the mat is as flex ible as a woven stuff and beautifully fine London Graphic Sea Water nnd Cold The delusion that sea water does not glre cold Is accountable for much harm A chill may be caught by wetting from sea water as quickly as by wetting from any other water There Is a certain stimulation to the skin from salt no doubt but that does not pre vent chills from indiscriminate ex posure to wetting by salt water and chills are fertile
