G.. E. CoNvENTIoN.-The annual conven-

last week was in every way gratifying. The
programme was full of interest and was, we
believe, carried out perfectly in every detail.
The attendance was large and Its influence

A girl should be brought up so as to be
able to make her own living, whether or not
she's going to inherit fortune. But a
woman's place is IN the home, though some
women do better in business than men. A
girl ought to be careful about the man she
marries, too especially if she has money.
She oughtn't to marry until she's old enough
to know what she's dong anyway.

NICARAGUA CANAL REPORT ).
SENATOR MORGAN LAYS IT BEFORE
THE SENATE.
Describes the Necessity for Canal
The Results TO Flow From Its
Opening and It's Advantages over
the Route by the Darien Isthmus.

WASHINGTON. Jan. Ex-senator Nor
gan, as chairman of the senate committee
on tnteroceanic canals today presented q
written report on the Nicaragua canal
bill The following extracts from the re-
port indicate its general purport:
I'VE have reached q point In the dis.
cussion of the question of ship canal
through the Isthmus of Darien where the
necessities for the canal and its advant-
ages to our country are no longer doubted
in congress or among the people.
with this western connection between
the two great oceans there will be estab-
lished the shortest and most direct line
of navigation between the seaports of this
nation and those of every nation In the
world in passing from ocean to ocean.
The ship canal will open. a line that is
practically straight around the earth and
along parallels OF latitude, within the tenn
perate zones, where the seas are compar-
atively quiet and are refreshed with the
ever prevailing trade Winds
LAS provision for the naval and mill
tary defense of our country, whether In
sular or continental this canal is indis-
pensabhe, and the closer it's location Is
made to our states on the Gulf OF Mexico
the more efficient viii be its protection to
our coasts on the Atlantic and Pacific.
of San Juan of Porto Rico are the true
military defenses of the canal against at
tack by European or Asiatic powers and
they give "a more secure protection to it's
eastern and western outlets than any fort
ress, however strong, that can be located
at or near its connection with the sea.
Measured by the income OF the SueZ
canal. at q corresponding cost, the Near
aguan canal should yield, with equival-
ent rates of tolls, at least II per cent on
$l40,000000.
ut is too severe a tax on credulity to
ask the adoption OF the precarious water
supply at Panama in preference to the two
grand lakes of the Nicaragua route, one Of
which Is 100 miles long by 45 miles broad
and affords nearly 10 miles of fresh water
navigation for the largest ships part of
the canal route, and together they supply
more than ten times the water needed TO
supply the canal line from Lake Nicaragua
to both oceans, We owe it to ourselves
and TO the whole world that whatever
canal we shall build and control on the
1sth1uus of Darien shall be as open. free
and neutral to all nations as its correspond
ing gateway. the Suez canaI.n

WEIGH REACHES WEIGHT,
Confident That He Will Beat Anth-

At the Seattle Athletic Club tonight Jim
Anthony, the bantamweight champion,
will meet Mickey WEIGH in a twenty round
contest. Under the articles of agreement
it must be a bona tide contest. The pugil-

and decide upon a referee, and IL they fail
to reach an agreement within one hour
the club viii select the referee itself.
Welch was a trifie under l22 pounds yes
terday, and was feeling strong and well
lie is confident of winning, as is Anthony.
II is generally believed that Anthony will
enter the ring at about 116 pounds He
VIII probably claim ll2 pounds; such is u
pugiist's privilege.
There has been little talk about ref
cree. but it seems as If Jimmy Goegan is
the best man. He has no interest in either
man, and his reputation for fairness is
well established here.
The preliminary will be started at $50
o'clock, no matter whether the crowd has
arrived or not. Prof, Crane says that he
viii insist on the programme being car
ried out according to time announcements
Notwithstanding Anthony's great rec
ord, he will not win easily, IL he wins at
all. The consensus of opinion is that
WEIGH has y good chance to win, and his
heart is in it, 1t means much TO him.

GEN. wHEELER's RETURN.
Due, His Friends Say, to OTIS Fall
IRE TO Employ Him-sIust Seek Re-
election for Seat In Congress.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1s.--A special to the
Times from. Washington says:
If Gen. Joseph Wheeler expects to re-
turn TO Washington to take a seat In con-
gress. without further formality, 1t looks
as IL he would meet with disappointment.
Inquiry has been made, since the an
-pouncement that he had been relieved from
further duty in the Philippines, and 1t is
found that there is very general agree
ment. on both sides of the house, that 1t
has been clearly shown by the examine
ton OF the case Of Low, and other prece-
dents. that he has forfeited his right to a
seat in congress, and that the only thing
open to him Is to go back TO mis- district
and seek reelection, IL he desires to con-
tinue in service In congress-
No doubt is entertained that, If he seeks
reelection, at a special election, to fill the
vacancy, he win be returned to congress.
perhaps without opposition. but 1t will be
held by the house, according to the best
authorities in both parties. that the seat is
nosN vacant and will remain so until spe-
cial election has been held
Some Of his friends hope that he may be
induced not to make claim to the seat. but
to go at once before his people for re-
election. they think he would win greater
distinction by this course, and. If re-elect-
ed, he would be entitled to pay for the en-
tire term from March 4 last. as any one
elected to the vacancy would be.
A special from Washington to the Herald
says: No doubt exists in the minds Of
friends of Brig. Gen. Joseph Wheeler that
his return from the Philippines, In compi-
ance with his own request, is due to the
failure of Gen. Otis to give him active
service in the field.
In Certain quarters an effort is made
to attribute Gen. Wheeler's return to in
ability to stand the climate and to his
age. In refutation of the former, his
friends point to a statement he made after
visiting the American lines "the impress
sion that the new country is unhealthy Is
wrong" Regarding his age. 1t is pointed
out that he is only about q year older
than Gen. Otis.
The orders to Gen. Wheeler to return
were cabled about a week ago.
