Panama News.

The following notes are CLEANED from
| the Panama STIR md Herald of MAY 23d,
| which arrived at San Francisco by steamer
| yesterday:
We have been requested to inform the
| public that the net proceeds of the concert
which was given in behalf of the sufferers
| by the Colon fire on the 9th inst, amounted
| TO $242, of which 1920 have already been
| deposited in the cashiers office of the
| Canal Company. As soon as the balance
| is collected, the total amount will be sent
to Colon for distribution among the most
deserving classes.
| In Colon we are told that there has been
considerable " land jumping" going on, or
| occupation of other peoples lands or lots
| for which the complainers hold leases from
the Panama Railroad Company. Several
of the best, belonging to people who are
| absent since the fire, have been taken and
shanties and houses erected on them with
out the permission of the lesseeS. This is
taking advantage of the absent with ven
geance, and the work of dispossessing the
intruders should be done by the authori-
ties on the proper representation of the
facts.
Don Jorge Holguin, Secretary of the
Treasury of Colombia, saws that the rebell
ion has been completely crushed in the
interior of the republic; that the Federal
Government, surrounded and supported by
strong army, has all the resources and
means necessary TO thoroughly restore pub
lie order, which in fatal moment was dis
turbed.
We understand that Mr.. Holguin has
been instructed by the Colombian Govern
ment, in a special manner, to separate
the financial rights that that republic has
in the enterprises of the Panama Rail-
road Company and Panama Canal Com
pany.
One of the results is that American and
English capital is coming into these three
republics of Nicaragua, Honduras and San
Salvador, freely, and will come far more
freely as the wonderful facts of the rich
lodes discovered are made known. A year
ago the writer was sent by London house
! to examine and report on a very famous
| mining property in this department. He
| found one of the grandest mining proper
ties it had ever been his good fortune to
see in the course of over twenty years OF
| examining mines from Nevada to Peru.
A New MoToR-The Hook motor, a new
| Vienna invention, consists of an alright
| furnace, whose fire is fed by compressed
! air: water is injected into the resulting
! gases of combustion, and the mixture OF
steam and combustion productS-cailed
air steam lis lead directly into the en-
CINE. There is thus presented the fact OF
| machinery without boiler and the results
| OF trials made with this arrangement are
pronounced in the highest degree salts

power developed 1928 effective horse

The Panama Canal.

New YORK. June 1Sth.-The SIM has the
ETY. of Civil Engineers last evening about
the Panama Canal, from which he has lust
returned after years of employment there.
He said the canal was entirely under
French control. Belgium furnishes the
most machinery, and Belgium and Ger
many most of the mechanical engineers.
The laborers are largely composed of ia
maica negroes, whom the authorities of ia
maica are glad to get rid of. There are
from $4,000 to 10000 negroes employed on
the canal. The laborers get 81 20 per dav,
and operating engineers get from $50 to
$3.50 per month. Two and a half miles
from Panama it is proposed to build the
dry dock for the ships. De Lesseps said
the canal would be finished in 1890, but
Stevenson thought that from the slow pro-
gress il would be 1900 before it was open.

After sitting for the picture the General re-

NEW YORK, June 1Sth.-The Commercial
Adrertiscr says editorially: The reports of
Grants condition are not comforting. 1t is
known that the disease from which Grant
is suffering has made an alarming advance
of late. His wonderful vitality is slowly
giving way under the strain, and it is with
profound sorrow that we chronicle these
melancholy facts. The obvious truth is
that Grant has not long to live, though no
physician is wise enough to say whether
his remaing time on earth is likely to be
measured by weeks or days
Garfield was removed from Washington to
Eberon for his health, but he found death
instead. Many fear that Grant has been
removed from New York to Mount Nc
Gregor never to return.

A Clever Confidence Couple.

A beautiful girl, with large blue eyes
and golden hair, hut shabbily dressed,
greatly interested a large crowd of gen
tlemen on one of the East river ferry
boats the other day by singing very sweet
ly and tenderly the we'll -khown hymn,
Jesus, Lover of my Soul" As she con
cluded one verse, a large, well-dressed
man called a deck hand and ordered him
to put her out of the cabin, she looked
despairingly and burst into tears. There
were cries of Throw him overheard, .
LET her alone" ''Shame!!" The large
man, who looked like railroad president,
insisted; said that the deck hand was
doing his duty, and that the ferry COM
pany had ordered all nuisanees suppress
ed. He acknowledged that he had COM
planned of her. The murmurs of discon-
tent and anger arose around him, at which
he seemed somewhat disconnected and,
approaching the poor girl, said,-
whats the matter, sissy2"
Then she told her pitiful story of sick
mother, a dead father, no work, hunger,
distress, and her anxiety to get employ
ment.
ooh, don't send me to prison." she
cried, breaking down completely.
The large man was abashed, and the
crowd looked angry and scornful again.
He at nee apologized, and to show his
regret for his blunder, Immediately took
out a five dollar bill, which he dropped
into her hat. Then he passed the hat,
which was soon filled with money. After
the passengers had left the boat, he joined
the girl and they both went off together.
He was a well-known clever confidence
man, and the young woman was his wife,
as clever as he.

M0ar Steel liz MRdea

There are two methods of making
steel from iron. If the material work
ed upon is cast or pig iron. an excess
of carbon must be taken from it; il it
it is wrought or malleable iron, car
bon must be added to it. The second,
or earburation method, is used for the
manufacture of steel of the first quail
ty. Two chests of fire brick or stone
are fixed in a dome shaped furnace SO
that the flames from the hearth below
can play effectually around them. A
layer of charcoal or of SCOT is placed
on the bottom of each chest. and upon
this are laid the bars of wrought iron.
These are generally about three inches
broad and three-quarters of an inch
thick. and should be of iron Of the
best quality. They are arranged regu-
larry IL little distance apart, and the
insterstices between are filed up with
charcoal, with which the bars them
selves are covered about an inch.
Similar layers Of bars are laid on
these, each covered with charcoal, I'M
iii the chests are fliel. They are then
covered in to a depth OF six inches
with a hitting of damp clay or sand.
One of the bars is allowed to project
from the end of the chest, which may
by examination from time to time
give indications Of the progress of the
operation. The furnace heat around
the chest is now raised to 1,lO6 F.
the point found to be necessary to eff
feet the carburation--and is maintains
ed at this point for eight Or ten days,
or even longer. the period depending
on the thickness of the iron and the
degree OF hardness desired in the steel.
At tl.s end of the tine the fra Is
gradually put out. and the bars allow
ed to cool by degrees. which takes
sonnet ten days more The iron is now
transformed into steel, but it is not of
uniform texture. It is made homoge-
neous by breaking it up into small
pieces, fusing It In a tire-clay crucibie
and then casting it in molds. This
Yields the best and hardest steel known
but as it is very brittle when brought
to q red heat, very great care Is needed

Tho Manners OF Rovs.

Boys at certain transitory age, are
apt to be tWkward. Outdoor exercise
and sports d much to make them strong
and straight yet it is very conmo
among tho who are growing fast (es-
pecially if ley read or study d good
deaD, to fiji the head thrust forward,
the shouldeS round and STOPPING, and a
s%louching, llgraceful carriage. Until
these things re corrected, no boy can be
thoroughly st ong and vigorous. Biting
the nails is ane of the most annoying
habits, and yet one which almost any boy
will fall into unless his mother 'nips it in
the bud" Not only is it almost unen-
durable for a nervous person to sit in the
room withlone of these nail biting boys,
but the young mans hands are injured in
appearance, and, if the habit be carried
to excess, they will become almost de-
formed. In these days of professional
%manicures, mothers ought, at least, to see
that there are no ragged nails and raw
fingers among their children. Ahabit of
snuffing, or of scraping the throat, of
tapping the floor with the foot, or the
table with the nuckles, ONE OF gradu-
ally, but, once fixed is exceedingly diff
cult to overcome. eternal vigilance
should be a mothers watchword, for the
true secret of curing bad habits is in
never allowing them to be formed. The
"ounce of prevention" is worthm more than
the ''pountupf cure" / would not take
away anythcag of boyishness or natural
ness. A re p boy is worth half a dozen
tops or dur es. But l do not see why
boys shouldF not be as graceful and we'll
hammered d their sisters; why they can
not sit down at a table without hitting it
and iaringthe dishes as well as the tenn
pers of th{fwhole family; why they can
not eat slowly and noiselessly; why they
cannot cross a room without stumbling
against the furniture; or close a door
without slamming it; or sit quietly while
reading or listening. 1t should be per-
fectly natural for a boy to lift his hat to
his mother or sister when he chances to
meet them on the street; to rise from a
comfortable chair when older persons en-
ter the room; to entertain a visitor when
the rest of the household is occupied.
Do you say it is too much for a boy to
think of all these things? If the mother
has trained him from babyhood constant
ly and carefully, he will do them without
thinking. Good manner are a growth,
and boyhood is the time, and home the
place, in which they should grow.
