couraging report to make in Atlantic City. In fact the growth of the order during his administration has beat the record. Allen has issued charters for 14 lodges the lar gest number ever issued in one year. His predecessor had broken previous records in issuing 75 charters. When Allen was elect ed the order numbered only 5000 mem- bers. During the twelve months just end ed, S,OOO members were added, bringing the numerical strength of Elkdom up to 75 900. This is regarded a wonderful showing when it is remembered that lodge cannot, by the laws of the order, be established in town of less than 5000 population, and that Elkdom is confined to the United States. There is an application now pending for a charter for lodge in Honolulu.
 The B. F. o. Elks was organized in New York about twenty-five years ago by the sons of Bohemia-actors artists and newspaper men, and for awhile the mem- bership was restricted strictly to Bohem- ians For the first few years of it's exis- tence it was found only in the large cities. But after the class limit was extended so as to take in all good fellows, the order began to spread from one end of the coun- try to the other.

''ROGERS.''

Washington, July 5.-Admiral Hichburn, the chief naval constructor, says the float ing of the Oregon off the rocks Is half the battle won, and that what remains now to be done to make her fit for service is large ly of a mechanical character. As soon as the vessel reaches the Kure docks a thor ough examination will be made with view to the prompt repair of the ship. As long as the pumps have control of the water coming into the vessel the danger to her is lessened. It is expected here that the opportunity will be taken on the first fla vorable weather and smooth sea to take the vessel to kure.

Washington. Dec. 4.-The re-
port of the Isthmian Canal COM
mission submitted by the presi.
dent to congress today gives as
the unanimous conclusion of that
body that "the most practicable
and feasible route for an 18th.
mian canal, under the control,
management and ownership of
the United States, is that known
as the Nicaragua Route. . The
commission estimates the cost of
this route at 5000, 500, 900. This
estimate is much in excess of
any heretofore made and is due
to increased dimensions and
other features not heretofore
considered.
The commission also estimates
the cost of canal by the Panama
route at S142, 342, $40, according
to one route, OR $156, 378, ,258 ac-
cording to another route, AS
between the Nicaragua and
Panama route the commission
sums up a number of advantages
favorable to the former.
It states also that under the
concessions given by the Pana-
ma government to the Panama
canal company, that government
is not free to grant the necessa
ry rights to the United States
except upon conditions made by
the COMPANY.
The report is a document of
aSout 1900 words, almost as
long as the presidents message.
Although the work of the COM
mission is not yet completed,
many of the field parties still
being out, yet it has been suffi-
gently advanced to make it
practicable to present his prell-
minary report, giving the essen
tial findings. A thorough ipves-
tigation has been made. not only

route but of other possible routs
