From Lake to Ocean.

1t is understood that the Deep Water
ways Commission appointed by President
Mckinley to report upon the feasibility OF
ship canal connecting the Great Lakes
with the Atlantic Ocean has decided in
favor of what is known as the 'Oswego
route''-a route which practical engineers
have long favored.
This line starts from North Tonawanda,
near Buffalo, on the verge of Lake Erie,
and goes thence to Wilson, on Lake On
tario. Beginning again at the important
port OF Oswego, it goes to Lake
Oneida, and thence by the Mohawk
River to the Hudson at West Troy. An
average depth OF 20 feet throughout the
new canal is contemplated. This is
double the depth OF the Erie Canal, but it
is plain that it is not sufficient for the
purposes if the design is to enable ocean
going ships to load on the Great Lakes
with grain and other merchandise for di-
rect export to Europe.
There are very few steam vessels in the
transatlantic trade which have draught
of water, when fully laden, as light as 20
feet. There are many which have a
draught OF % feet, and some which have
a draught of nearly 30. The constant
tendency is to larger and deeper ships,
and it is to be gravely doubted whether
vessels of draught OF 20 feet could be
protitably employed in the Atlantic trade,
even with the advantage of receiving their
cargoes on the lakes without the expense
and delay of canal or railway tranship-
ment.
1t is estimated that the cost of 20 foot
deep waterway, such as the national com
mission is considering, from Buffalo to
Troy via Lakes Ontario and Oneida would
be $50, 600, 900. This is very large ex-
penditure, in the face of the competition
of the Erie Canal and of the fast freight
service of the trunk line railroads. The
building of such ship canal may be in
evitable, as its advocates insist but the
present generation is not likely to see the
completion of the project. 1t will have
to wait for heavier volume of traffic and
more abundant capital.

Death of a Spendthrift.

Thomas Coffin, the strange and myst ari-
GUS spendthrift of Winthrop, died re-
Gently in Lowell, Me. He lived in Win
throp till young man, leaving on account
of some difficulty. He reappeared there
about twelve years ago, apparently with
immense wealth at his command. He
bought fine place and spent large sums
in freaksh changes and additions. He
kept it filled with boon companions and
spent money like a millionaire, while his
riotous friends made the town an exciting
place. He bought valuable horses and
when he became angry with them he had
them shot He bought furniture and
carriages, and firing of them he had them
split up and thrown in pile on his lawn
and burned. He kept large sums of
money by him and was very careless, often
carrying $50, 900 in valise. Once he left
it over night in store, having forgotten
it. Another time he left S75, 900 loose in
a basket in care of a servant while he was
off on trip. He suddenly left Winthrop
and was not heard of until a few months
ago when he came back physical wreck
from morphine. After taking the ''cure"
he went away and the news of his death is
the first since heard of him. He is suppos-
ed to have been without means when he
died.

Capt. SIOcum Safe.

Capt. Slocum, the daring navigator, has
been heard from after silence of over a
year, and he and his small sloop Spray are
safe and sound, having arrived at Port
Luis, Mauritus Island, recently.
1t was his original intention to sail south
and if possible to have his vessel carried
across the isthmus of Panama. thus saving
the long and perilous voyage around the
Horn, but finding that it would be impossi-
Bile for the Panama railroad to transport
his boat, Capt. Slocum decided to sail east,
passing through the Mediterranean, the
Red Sea, Indian ocean, and after stopping
at number OF places on the PaciticI ocean,
round the Horn and sail home, perhaps
getting tow round the Horn.
The Spray after leaving Gloucester stop
ped at Yarmouth, N. S., and July 24th
was at the Azores. August 5th, Capt.
Slocum reached Gibraltar. Here he stopped
three weeks, and was persuaded not to at
tempt to pass through the Red sea I'M
armed, as piracy was still carried on and
it would be the extreme of rashness to at
tempt it.
Capt. Slocum took the advice of the
British naval officers, and on Aug. 26th
turned the bow of the Spray to the south
west. He stopped again at the Azores,
and after tempestuous voyage across the
Atlantic reached Pernambuco, Brazil
Oct. 9TH.
In a letter received later Capt. Slocum
reported rough experience since lie left
Pernambuco, and said that it was his inten-
ton to proceeded to Sydney, Australia, to
stop at Tahiti in the Society islands, and
then 90 to the Sandwich islands.
During his trip Capt. Slocum has wealth
cred heavy storms and has been received
with marked honors. He built the Spray
himself and the craft is little more than a
cockleshell, but has proved a seaworthy

Respect for the Flag.
One of the First Lessons that Is Taught at West
Point,

Lieutenant B. w. Atkinson, U. S. A. i,
writes an article for the October st.
Nicholas on ''The Escort to the Color"
The author says, in opening his paper:
The new cadet at the National Military
Academy, whether he has come from the
little country school with its home made
flag and staff, or from the city school
where floats sometimes a flag big enough
to cover half the roof of the other school,
has beer taught to respect the beautiful
emblem of his country; but he will learn
at West Point, as soon as he begins his
career as future officer of the army, how
thoroughly he is to be trained to honor it
in his daily life. The laughing school boy
salute he has perhaps given the Flag from
time to time now becomes a matter of
sober ceremony, SO rigidly required and
handsomely ordered that it at once sets
him to thinking; and the good sound
patriotism that was in him all along soon
envelops every glimpse and ceremony of
the Colors with a sacredness that will
deepen day by day.
One of his first lessons is to doff his cap
each time he passes the "Color- line''
where the Color is guarded by sentinel.
Every summer the cadets pass several
months in camp on the lovely banks of the
Hudson, and beneath the grand old trees
of the academy grounds.
During certain hours Of the day a long
line of stacked rifles extends along the
front of the camp. Across the two stacks
in the centre of the line is laid the Color,
rolled about its staff. Up and down by
this flag marches a natty cadet sentinel,
and woe be unto the unlucky cadet who
tries to pass this sacred trust without
raising his cap.
So during his life at the academy this
lesson of respect is continued, and when
he has ''doffed the cadet and donned the
brevet, and changed the gray for the
blue" and reported for duty with his
regiment, he finds the same lessons being
taught the enlisted men, and then prob
ably for the first time does he realize the
full Importance of those early lessons
taught in that far-awa schoolhouse.
