NEW PANAMA CANAL CO.
PROGRESS MADE ON THE WORKS
DURING 1898.
Large Excavations Being Pushed on,
and Big Gangs of Laborers Employ
ed-Prospects are Good.

The last report of the new Panama
canal company concerning the present
condition of the works stated that, cal
Culating 100000 cubic metres for De-
cember, which is the same amount as
was excavated in the month of No
vember, 1900 900 cubic metres of soil
and rock will have been removed dur
ing the year 1898.
OF that amount 100000 cubic metres
is from Emperador section and 100000
cubic meters from the Culebra. In the
Emperado section, which is six kilome-
tres long, the depth fixed for the pre-
liminary bed of the canal has been
reached except in a stretch of 800 me-
tres.
With regard to the Culebra section
the depth remaining to be excavated
is about four metres. At the Culebra
the company has, since it commenced
operations. eXcavated a depth of no
less than % metres The boringS which
have been effected during the year 1898
demonstrate that the nature of the
soil now encountered will be the same
even If the bed of the canal were
brought down to a level of the sea.
The average number of men who have
been employed on the works during the
year is 3.400.
The technical commission. after a
complete study of the whole question,
recommended to the company three
plans for the completion of the canal
works. The three solutions proposed
are the following:
First-A canal with five locks on
both the Atlantic and Pacific sides,
each having a maximum rise of nine
metres, the altitude of the bed of the
highest section of the canal being 291R
metres.
Second-A canal with four locks on
each side, also with a rise of nine me-
tres each the bed in the highest section
of the canal being at an altitude of
2O1s metres.
Third-A canal of which the bed at
it's highest section would be at an alti-
tude of only ten metres above the lev
ell of the sea. In this case there would
be only two locks on the Atlantic side
with a maximum rise of ten metres in
each, but on the Pacific side there
would be three locks, of which one
would be situated at the mouth of the
canal, and serve only as a foodgate
against the tide.
In the execution of these three
schemes the waters of the Chagres
would be utilized for the supply of wa
ter to the canal. With this object in
view a great dam would be construct
ed in the upper valley of the Chagres
at Alhajuela. The report says that the
great question of cutting through the
Culebra mountain must be regarded
as solved by the works already exc
cuted by the new company, as they
have demonstrated that the nature OF
the soil now encountered will not alter

COUNT CASTELLANE.
Accused of Trying to Overthrow Re-
publican France.

NEW YORK, February 2S.-Count
Boniface de Castellane, who married
Anna Gould and her fifteen millions,
has been dabbling in conspiracy, If ac-
counts received in this city and which
have been printed in Paris journals
are to be believed. The count has been
implicated in plot to overthrow the
French republic, according to the re-
cent statements of the Paris secret po-
lice, who seized the papers of M. de
Roulede.
The count has been charged, not only
verbally but in print, with using the
American dollars of his wife to aid the
foes of the republic. Heavy penalties
are certain to be imposed on those who
assisted and financially backed de
Roulede, and Count Castellane's ar
rest has been rumored in Paris, al
though the cable has brought no word
of it yet.

YELLOW FEVER.

WASHINGTON. July 31.-The latest
Official advices received up to s O'Clock
tonight show a total of thirty-seven
cases and seven deaths from yellow fe-
yer at the Soldiers Home at Hamp-
ton, Va. One new case developed at
the home today. Thus far the disease
has been confined to the home, but all
surrounding towns are excited, and a
vigorous quarantine Is being main
tanned. DR.. Wastin Of the Marine Hos
pital Service is now in charge Of at
fairs at Hampton and is working in
cooperation with the local boards Of
health. He has strengthened the cor
don about the town of Phoebus, which
he reports Is in very bad sanitary con-
dition. The fact that only one new
case appeared today is encouraging TO
the officials, who are taking every
measure to prevent a spread OF the dis
ease.

Dear Sir: In your issue of this date
august 1O) ! notice that you publish
some correspondence alleged to have
passed between Messrs. Harris and
Ward purporting to represent the Sec
ond Congregation Of st. Andrews Ca
thedral and St. Clements Chapel, and
the Bishop of Honolulu. Without at
tempting to discuss at this time the
merits or dement's Of the proposed ba-
sis of settlement as outlined In that
correspondence, wish explicitly to
disavow any connection herewith on
the part of the Second Congregation Of
that Mr.. l.. Del. Ward Is neither an
officer nor a member of the Second
Congregation, and, while it Is true that
Mr.. Harris and other members of our
congregation are members Of corpor-
alton newly formed, known as "The
Church Defence and Extension Asso-
citation of Hawaii" that fact does not
authorize them to represent this cor
respOndence as emanating from our
congregation. The correspondence has
never been submitted to me, a church
warden OF the congregation, nor to my
knowledge to anybody representing or
authorized to represent the congrega-
ton. My first knowledge OF any such
correspondence was obtained from
your issue OF this date.

MARRIED ABROAD.
David F. Thrum is No Longer a
Bachelor.

Miss Martha S. Colburn and David
F. Thrum were married at COlburn
Place, Wyoming, Ohio, by Rev. Mr..
Taylor, Tuesday, July 25. 1899. The
wedding took place at 8 p. m. at the
home of the brides aunt, Mrs. Ella N.
Clarke, which had been tastefully dec
Grated for the occasion. Upon enter
ing the front door the whole effect
gave marble-like glow to the bridal
party as they started down the stair
way to enter the parlor, chanting the
bridal march as they came.
First came the "Spinsters' Club"
friends of the bride, carrying cords OF
evergreen from the doorway to the
bay-window, where the pastor stood
waiting with the groom. AS they
reached the window they made way
for the bridal party. Next came four
beautiful bridesmaids preceded by Miss
Lucille Pentlarge, as maid OF honor,
and following them came the bride
leaning on the arm OF her father.
After the ceremony all repaired Ia
the reception-rOom, where congratula-
tons and greetings were extended and
received. At 1880 Mr.. and Mrs. Th.um
left for Cincinnati, Ohio, on their way
to New York City, expecting To return

HAWAIlANS AT MANILA.
No Medals or Mileage Ia Sight for
Island Boys


Island Boys
The following letter has been re-
ceived by prominent merchant in
this city from one of the Island boys
now serving his country at Manila:
Dear Sir: A few lines to you in re-
gard to the Hawaiian boys (both ma
tive and white). who enlisted in the
United States service in Honolulu:
You see, the boys who are soon to be
discharged from service under General
Order 40 will receive mileage from San
Francisco to their respective homes.
whereas us boys will not receive cent
of mileage, as they pay none on the
water. And another thing: All the
different States from which the boys
enlisted are to give their boys medals.
II seems to us boys from the Islands
that we are to be left out altogether.
Now, there is not one OF us who en-
listed on the Islands who have either
been arrested, court-martialed or re-
proved In any way, from our superiors.
We have succeeded in being an honor
TO our homes and native land. We now
see that the Hawaiian recruits can
make as good soldiers as from else
where. Now, we believe the Islands
in general appreciate our efforts in
trying to uphold our land and the
character we have built up for home
and ourselves.
We hope enough interest will be
aroused there and that we shall be re-
warded. II with nothing else. a medal,
on which we can look with pride In
future years M coming from our peo-
Pile as a token OF their appreciation
and the service In which we have been
more than victorious for our country

isIa nders Made to Feel at Home
and Given a Iharce to Go
In Swimming.

The forty Hawaiians who are at the
exposition form one of the attractions
which the visitors never tire Of watch
Ing The adults are reserved and sell
dom show themselves. but the chill
dren, of whom there are half dozen,
ranging from 4 to 13 years of age. are
as sprightly as a lot of colts released
from winter confinement and seem to
be everywhere present. The little
dark-skinned boys and girls are rapid
ly becoming general favorites with the
people who visit the exposition, and
when not inspecting exhibits. they are
watching the youngsters swim in the
pool on the Blur tract This pool is
about 100 feet long. and half as wide,
and at almost any hour OF the day
these children may be seen sitting
around 1t, half naked, or diving and
swimming under and upon its surface.
The native Hawaiian takes to water
like duck, and children of 4 years
swim and dive with as little concern
as though they were fish. Diving for
pennies is a pastime of the little fell
lows. These coins are thrown out into
the middle of the pool and instantly
the little brown bodies will shoot out
from the shore, disappear beneath the
surface, and minute later some
youngster will appear with the coin
between his teeth. There is one thing
about their diving that differs from the
plan adopted by the Americans. They
never strike the water head first; they
leap out from shore, striking on their
feet and then turn after going under
the water.
The musical festival, or Venetian
carnival, given on the Lagoon last
night was a great hit and pleased a
crowd OF several thousand visitors.
who enjoyed and applauded the several
numbers on the program. While the
festival was a pronounced success, the
Hawaiians, or at least the members of
the double quartet, at one bound
jumped into popular favor.
Musical Director Kelly induced the
Hawaiians to appear upon the Lagoon
and as a result, when the exposition
gates closed last night the singing of
these people was the one topic of con-
versation. The Hawaiians occupied
one of the large gondolas and favored
the listeners with q number of their
native selections as they fioated twice
around that portion Of the little fBody
Of water lying east of the bridge. Ev-
erybody present expected to hear fine
singing, yet no one expected to listen
to such delightful voices, SO strong,
round and full Of sweetness. In addi-
ton to their singing the members of
the double quartet played upon their
native Instruments, out of which they
drew tones that were full and rich.
The musical feature of the Hawaiian
Village is one OF the principal attrac-
tons Of the entire Midway. This is be-
yond comparison with any other mu-
sic at the exposition. Ever since the
evening the Hawaiian musicians were
heard on the Lagoon they have been
the talk OF the town and hundreds Wis
it the Hawaiian Village every evening
for no other reason than to hear the
beautiful instrumental and vocal Sc
lections Of this company.-Omaha
