another Great Shin CANAL.

The great canal between the North
and Baltic seas is fast approaching
completion, and the engineers say that
it will be opened without fail next
year. 1t has no locks or sluices along
Its course, but at each end there are
gates regulating the water level in the
canal. The average level will be the
same as that in the Baltic. The bed OF
the canal is q feet below normal water
level and it has bottom width of GO
yards. The slope of the sides is either
two to one or three to one, and the
least depth of water is to be about IS
feet deep. The Baltic trading steam
ers generally draw less water than this
minimum and are of such beam that
they can easily pass in the canal The
greatest amount of curvature is made
with a radius of 5000 feet, and SO per
cent. of the canal is straight. During
the summer about 5000 men have been
at work on the great ditch, and up to
the present time about 100, 200, 900 cubic
yards of excavation have been com.
pleted at an expense of about S17 500.
900. The entire cost of the canal is es-
timated at 1000, 900, OF which sum
Prussia contributes s12, 500, 900 and the
German Empire the balance.

Camp Dimond.
Regular Army Officers Lavish in
Their Praise of Fine Dress
Parade.

SANTA CRUZ, June 20-At present there
is more hard work than fun at Camp
Dimond. The severe drills and target
practice have not yet sent any of Colonel
Sullivan's soldiers to the hospital, but in
case any of the guardsmen should need
medical or surgical attention they will find
the hospital corps ready to receive them.
Major Galway and his assistant surgeon.
Captain O'BrieE, are prepared for "war."
Stretehers are stacked neatly outside the
hospital tent. Back of the curtains are
three surgical wards. The ambulance
corps consists of Sergeant Legge and two
squads of four men each.
Private conveyances are admitted to the
camp free. Only public conyeyances are
required to nay. for the reason that people
have to pay for being carried by them.
Tomorrow evening the Angel Island
band will give an open air concert on the
Ocean House balcony. The ball at the
hotel after the concert will be swell

grand march.

fight and his brother. NJ. D. Hyde, has
been looking after the fight here person
ally. A month ago the Burns element in
San Francisco were working quietly but
earnestly against Reichert and then an
nounced that there was no chance for
Theodore at all. Reichert is not a man
after Burns own heart. He is too pliable.
Besides this the Sacramento delegates are
not friendly to Hyde, or Rechert either
for that matter.
IF Burns had paid General Harts pre-
posterOus claim for 5000 fee for legal
services Hart never would have made that
bitter speech on the floor of the convention
to. day." said local politician this evening.
1t is SAID that Burns has helped Hart
considerably in times past. When Dan
Burns got wealthy, to clear off debt for
legal services for which Hart looked for
nothing very much. the mine-owner gave
him $500 as fee. Feeling that he should
do something more, Burns, who is very
generous man, determined to give Hart a
silver service as a present. While the
plate was in process of production, Cen
eral Hart sent in little bill for 5000 for
legal services rendered. Burns was
furious. He was so incensed that he re-
fused to pay the claim and pleaded the
statute OF limitations. In his letter Hart
said ne knew the claim was outlawed, but
he would sue anyhow. Burns refused to
pay a cent, and since that time the two do
not speak as they pass by. Hart got some
revenge to-day. but Burns says his time
will come in the future.

DISEASES OF STOCK.
Matters Being Considered by the
Meeting of State Boards.

WASHINGTON, June 20-The princip pal
topic of discussion at to-day's meeting of
representatives of the livestock boards was
based on paper prepared by DR.. J. Fl.
Kellogg of Battle Creek, Mich, on the
subject of tuberculosis" Mr.. Trumbower
OF Illinois read a paper entitled, What
shall we do with tuberculosis cattle ?"
The committee on permanent organiza-
ton recommended the formation OF IA

which he was witnessing the proceedings.
He responded to an earnest call and de-
livered a characteristic speech. He said
that he had been treated so well in Sacra-
mento that be hoped his friend Estee
would come here TO live. Il was a good
place TO be, and as the enthusiasm of the
night recalled to his mind the scenes of
four years ago he almost wished he was in
the fight again.
Upstairs in the Central Committee rooms
another meeting was in progress. The
place was racked with perspiring men,
but they suffered the sitting atmosphere
long enough 10 hear Frank MCGOWAN
make vehement speech from the top of
a able, in which he extolIed the virtues
OF Estee, who had befriended him when he
needed friends, and urged all good Repub-
Leans to see that he was elected Governor
because he deserved il.
Hilborn then amused the assemblage by
a recital of his troubles at Washington.
Hilborn's story was quite humorous, and
he scored a hit when he said the only
place Democratic Congressman could be
elected now in the United States was in
the Capitol at Washington.
There was any amount of oratory all
about town. The Central Committee pro-
yided a reception to Estee and his friends,
and as the night wore on it was evident
that the Publication had passed the stage
of sentiment. The politicians were hav-
Ing really good time, and felt good deal
better than most of them will when they
have 70 settle down to business in the
morning.

nomination for Governor was received
here with much enthusiasm and gives the
utmost satisfaction. Cannons are BOOM

An Arctic Summer.

During the summer months the temper ature usually ranges from 30 to 65 degrees, and on some days the heat is such that one might be pardoned for believing that the burning rays shining down upon the traveller are those of tropical sun. The valleys are carpeted with a mantle of green, the grass in many places growing knee high, while dandelions, poppies, saxi- frage and other wild flowers are found in profusion, and the air is full of insect life Marine birds and garishly oolored butter flies dart hither and thither, while the less pleasing mosquito amply demonstrates that arctic existence does not impair it's flendish consistency or rapacious appetite. The upper air resounds with the confused voices of the feathered tribe which range from the quick twitter of the swallow to the hoarse ''quonck, quonck" of the cider duck. Snow is only visible on high eleva- tions Indeed there are "the brawling brook" or "babbling brook," if you please, the leaping mountain torrent and all the other accessories prescribed by poets and artists to complete a beautiful pano rama. The picture is more striking on ao count of it's bold contrasts. Forbidding black cliffs and lofty, rock ribbed noun tains rear their stately heads far above tho verdant valleys, while beyond the green sea is softly caressing some tall icebergs that are .rlistening in the sun like fantas- tic fairy passces.
 Today we travel to Bermuda or across the ocean to Switzerland in search of health or pleasure. Why not to Green landa It may be a rash prediction, but I feel confident that before many years havo passed the north will become Q favoredsif not popular summer resort. rt.--Home and Country.

TOO MUCH TOBACCO
Some of tho EfEects of 0verinduigence In
 the Weed.

the Weed.
 The toxic effects of tobacco among the lower classes in England are comparative. ly not infrequent. The form which the poisoning takes is that Known to ophthnl mic surgeons as s'tobacco amblyopia. The mcn come to the hospitals complain ing of loss of sight Commonly they ar. found to Do bootmakers or those to whom the opportunity occurs of smoking while they arc at work. us In most cases there is a serious failure of vision Associated with this is the loss of perception for the colors red and green, which is confined to the central part of the refina. The diag nosis, however, having been made, the treatment is easy enough
 Practically this resolves itself into the emphatic pfohibition of all smoking It is always best to give the. patients instruc- tions to burn their pipes. As long as an old ''trusty friend'' is perInitted to lie on the mantelpiece or anywhere within sight and reach tho temptation becomes almost irresistible to disobey orders, and in the luxury of renewing valued companion ship to forget the strict injunotions against indulging in the habit which had been laid down. Almost invariably in these cases overindulgencei is found to consist in smok- ing half an ounce of shag daily-that is to say, when tho surgeon asks the patient, How much do you. sinokef" 1t is seldom 7 that any other answer is given than that of ''about half an ounce of shag q day." The constancy of this reply is really TO- markable
 .'Tobacco anblyopia" is~almost un- known in connection with any other form of tobacco than that which is called shag. In addition to the amblyopia the patients are distinctly affected with s'tobacco tre- mors. Their hands arc shaky, they arc more or less nervous, and they complain of loss of appetite, Their complexions, moreover, are in that condition which may be described as muddy" and there is characteristic expression of listlessness in their eyes. But what are the results of the treatment? In most cases tho surgeon may speak hopefully of the recovery of vision Provided that the patient absolute ly ceases to smoke, and certain treatment be applied, some improvement will begin to take place in the course of a fortnight. Always very gradually, but generally speaking surely, the improvement pro- gresses until at the end of some weeks tho lost sight is nearly regained. Hugh Percy Dunn in Nineteenth Century.

Photography.

Photography is a process by which, with fiuorine inks, Autographs and pho totypes can be transf erred on glass. When brought in contact with sulphuric acid, these inks form fuohydric acid, which corrodes glass so delicately that these i'm ages appear as if they had been traced with hoar frost or snow.
 To obtain this delicate result photo type is linked with the following solution: Glycerin, 400 parts; water, 900 parts; auor- spar, 100 parts; tallow, 100 parts; soap, 100 n"rt~' .~-'.- sH l,a~ts; iapan TO parts-

At the end of 20 minutes the acid is poured of, the plate is washed in water which contains little potash to re- move all acid ;,tlaces, when it is ginsed in clear water and wiped. dry, with a warm linen cloth.-St. Louis Post Dispatch.
