Not Easy to Block up the Suez
Canal.

Stopping the traffic through the Ca
nal would he q much more difficult
task to accomplish. This results from
its size. For most of its length 1t is,
waving fractions, over 800 feet wide.
AT Ell Gaisr and Serapeum, where the
sand was deep, it would have cost an
immense labor to have kept up the
full width at these places, so for q few
miles 1t IL only go metres, or about $50
feet. To dam up such spaces could not
be done In minutes or hours Sinking
All old vessel would also have Its diff
culties. Arabi's men might have
some difficulty in finding a ship OF
sufficient size for the purpose ; and,
supposing this could be done, 1t would
not take a very long time to remove 1t
again. Unless Arab has means of
which we ct are unaware. there is
little chance Of the traffic being stopped
for any length OF time. Our gunboats
will be quite abe to keep the banks OF
the canal clear, SO far as their guns can
reach, at any rate, from any body OF

The writer met the jockey of Ruth

in the course of a conve rsation on turf
matters, the astute prodder of horse
flesh said, with a childlike and ingen-

saw how the goggles steadied my horse
he put 'em on Thad too. The day be-
