DELIVERY OF A MESSAGE.
An Incident Of Early Military Opera
 ti0ns in Arizona.

When General George Stoneman as sumed command of the newly organ izcd department of Arizona. with gen. eraI headquarters at Fort Whipple, he found it necessary to send dispatches at once to Colonel John Green, the ccmmandant of Camp Ord, situated somewhere" in the Sierra Blanca mountains. At that time, the year 1870. the Apaches were at their worst, and it twas as much as q mans life was worth to go beyond the bounds Of military reserve. No mails connected Camp Ord with the outer world and that camp was surrounded by hcrdes of Gendish red devils. Between Fort Whipple and Camp Ord, distance of about POO mi!ss, was. scope Cf country practically uncxpl0red and occupied solely by A1aches. To reach Camp Ord t was necessary to pass through this Apacheria. and fer one man alone to do so, required TO little amoHrk of sand in the craW." However, there were ether requisites necessary De- sides sand" the scout intrasted with dispa tches must possess a knowledge of Woodcraft; the better cunning than the Apache; much self reliance; kC6N e . anu QUICK ear, i"lCl JUQSneLt to act correctly and quickly in an emergency.

INTER-OCEHNEC CANALS
Fir. "A. p. Davis Lafe of PinaI Will Go
 10 Central America.

The United States geological survey
 has summoned A. P. Davis, the hydro
 graphcr who has been conducting an investigation at the Buttes, to Wash
 ington He left last night and will
 accompany the int5r-Oceanic commits sion bound for the Isthmus of Panama. Excepting the head Of the division, Mr. Davis is the chief hydrographer of the government. He was assigned few years ago to take charge of the exploring party of the transcOntinentaI canal projects. His researches have been mostly on the Nicaragua canal,
 but he has been in touch with the workings of the Panama, San Bias and Atrato schemes. The commission irr tends conducting experiments on the Panama canal Although there has been enough money squandered Dy French private capital to build that canal. about $250, 900 900. only about s60 ,000, GOO of actual work has been done, and only meager examinations C. it's water drainage have been made.
 The commission intends to rsport be- foEe the adjournment of the next con gress, and MT. Davis is Of the opinion that at that time an appropriation will be made for the construction of some canal There has already been money enough appropriated to conduct the preliminary work Onthe Nicaragua pro ject, which is being pushed as rapidly as possible. The sentiment, Mir. Davis says, is strongly in favor of establish ing an inter-oceanic canal, and cor gress only awaits the report Of ths commission.
 MT Davis thinks the Nicaragua canal plan the best. The Atlantic ends of the Nicaragua and Panama canals lie about equally distant from New York, yet on account of the out line of the Pacific coast a ship leaving San Francisco would have to go GOO miles farther to go through the Pan anna. An advantageous feature of the Nicaragua canal is the Nicaragua lake which lies in it's course. It is navigable for sixty miles, and it is essential to the canal for water stor- age. Its surface is on a line with the surface of the canal. MT. Davis does not believe an inter-ct eanic canal would any more than pay interest on the investment.
 ''To begin with, he said, there is an erroneous opinion prevailing as to tha cheapneSS Of transporting by 1 water. Of coTrse water transportation is less expeEslve ir the case Of large vessels, but in the majority of cases i it costs nearly as much to transport by 1 wa.er as by rail. If there is much ] difference it is because the ships are shipping cargo for almost cost and i the railroad is pressing the limit Of | charge.
