THE NICARAGUA CANAL.

Our Washington correspondent,
this week, writes:
"Judging from the amount of
talk by Senators, Representatives
and other officials, about the Mica
ragua Canal treaty, now before
the Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations, the canal is the most
important subject now before the
country. Although it is not yet
absolutely certain that the treaty
will be ratified without material
amendment, it is probable, not
withstanding the forts of shrewd
lobbyists TO fan the discontt n
with which the treaty was at first
received, because Of it's providing
for the neutrality Of the Canal and
forbidding it's fortifcation. Sec-
Ond thoughts have made friends
for the treaty among those who
were at first disposed to be it's
enemies. The neutrality of the
canal is recognized by tie conser-
vative as good move, not only in
the interests of peace between the
q. s. aad foreign nations, but in
the int .rests Of American COM
merce. Some of the treaty's op-
ponents concede that theoretically,
but still insist that the treaty is
practically a humiliation on the
part of this government, and that
public opinion would force this
government to violate the neutral
ity clause by closing the canal to
the war-ships of any nation we
might be at war with; that it rec.
ognizes the Clayton -Bulwer treaty,
which American Secretaries of
State have insisted was abrogated
years ago, and that it is entirely
too English. Everybody appears
to be of the opinion, excepting
those who are lobbying against it,
that the treaty has made certain
the passing of q bill at this session
of Congress, authorizing the gov
eminent to construct and operate
the Nicaragua Canal"

The new Episcopal church
which so much has been heard o1
J lately, is now an assured thing. i
has been known for some time thai
the church would be built in thu
course of time, but Thursday, tht
arrangements were brought to 6
climax and the contract was let
The contract was awarded to Jas
A. Petty, our popular contractor
who is now busily engaged in max
ing arrangements for the erection
of the new structure.
A Signal representative saw Mr..
Petty this morning and also DIR.
d. P. January, who informed us
Of some of the details as to the
erection of the new church.
The church is to be erected on
the vacant lot just north of the
court house, on the east side OF
Parkerson avenue. The dimen.
sions of the building will be 3Ox6O,
eighteen feet high. The church
will be prettlly finished and fur
nished when it is completed. The
work will begin in about two
weeks, just as soon as the lumber
can be shipped. The exact cost
Of the building could not be ascer-
tanned, but it is understood that it
will be a handsome structure and
an ornament to the city.
just as soon as the work on the
building is completed the members
of the church here will make ar
rangements about securing per-
manent rector, and regular SER
vices will commence.
The church will have large
membership to commence with, as
there is quite number of our
prominent people who are Episco-
palians.
Rev. Boberg, pastor Of the
Church Of the Good Shepherd at
Lake Charles, is entitled to much
credit for the interest he has taken
in the building Of this church and
the work he has done to keep it
before the eyes of the people. He
has the thanks of all the Episco
palians in Orowley.-Crowley Sig
nal.

probable reason for Miss Helen

she regards one son-in-law in the
family as suficiency. .
If there is not to be American
control Of the canal, there should
be no canal. Congress has nc
power to appropriate the peoples
money towards an enterprise which
will benefit Europe as much, If
not more, than this country, should
the canal be kept neutral in the
time of war.

try has been sick of Otis for some

country still remembers how the
people of New England compelled

do if a hundred British cruisers

madness to sacrifice our feet in
