NEW CANAL ROUTE.

W HEN THE SENATE begins eonsid-
" Grafton of the isthmian canal bill
the promoters of an entirely new route
will have a hearing This route is
known as the Darien- Mandingo, and
many advantages are claimed for it
that no other way presents. 1t is less
than thirty miles long, has deep water
harbors at either end, and will require
no curves, dams or locks. In this canal
there would be no necessity for guard
ing against disastrous floods or short
age of water.
To put the canal through it would
be necessary to drive a tunnel five
miles long through a granite noun
| tain, but it is claimed that this can
easily and safely be accomplished. An
other advantage is the length of time.
four years, necessary TO complete the
work and one estimate of cost places
the total expenditure at 500 coo 900. For
this amount of money the tunnel and
all the rest of the canal could be con-
structed.
The promoters propose 10 light the
tunnel by electricity and secure venti-
lation by means of vertical shafts. For
ships not using their own steam, cleo
trical traction is to be provided. AL
ready the company has purchased and
processes to own absolutely a strip of
! land twelve miles wide from one side of
the isthmus to the other. II is asserted
that President Mckinley endorsed this
route, and that it is now favored by
Senator Hanna and others.
There IS no doubt that Senator
Hanna does favor the Darien- Man
dingo plan as much as he favors any

An ignorant man is merciless critic
a man never does anything desperate
| if fed regularly.
The less a man cares the more love a
woman wastes on him.
It's waste of time to repeat hair
I raising stories to bald headed men
There are more roOster-pecked wives II
the world than hen-pecked husbands
Most men want to do better. but they
are seldom able TO decide where to be-
gin.
Courtship is game in which a girl
plays her heart against mans diamond.
A woman always seems surprised when
a man proposes TO her. but she never is.
If women looked like the pictures in
fashion magazines every man would take
to the woods.
Only the man with a good umbrella is
able 10 appreciate the silver lining OF
some dark clouds.
If the average man isn't born great or
/ is unable to achieve greatness he tries TO
thrust himself upon it.
1t is Just as important to say the right
thing in the wrong place as il is to say
the right thing in the right place.
Whenever a man tells a woman that
he loves her the chances are he has an
AK to grind and wants her to turn the
grindstone.

RECORD OF CASUALTIES.

HAS HUMAN LIFE become less
II valuable since the twentieth cen
turv opened? The question IS suggest
ed by the great number of more or
less appalling catastrophes which have
been recurring at even shorter inter
walls since the beginning of the year
1902. The record of 1901 was bad
enough, but this year promises to lar
surpass that. Deaths by fire and by
food. oy earthquakes, in mines and
factories and rolling mills, in railroad
wrecks and other disasters. deaths in
many different forms. sudden and hor-
rible. are almost hourly reported.
More lives have been lost in the score
or more OF important accidents during
less than two months OF this year in
the United States than were taken by
Filipino bullets in all of 1901. War in
the Philippines is actually more health
full than peace in this country. In
yesterdays Herald appeared details of
the killing of twenty people in a New
York CITY fire. There was nothing I'M
usual about the story. Indeed, al
most every issue of every newspaper
contains similar stories. The days on
which such publications are not made
are exceptional days
OF the thousands of minor accidents
in which one or two or three are killed,
we hear but little. When they are re-
ported at all the details are set forth
in a few brief lines, easily overlooked.
And then the murders and other homi-
cides A veritable epidemic of mysteri-
Gus murder seems sweeping over the
land. The town is small, indeed. that
does not hold in its gaol at least one
individual against whom is made the
charge Of taking that which no hu-
mar being can give.

tried for the crime alleged against him.
Almost anybody in this country could
have told that official not to put his

princes, for we have had some promises
from the sultan ourselves.

The chances now are that all the ice
in the ice houses of the American Ice
co. in this State will be emptied of
their contents before the river closes
for the winter. The shortage of coal
in the big cities where artificial ice is
made is being felt by the manufacture
ers and the natural commodity is in de-
mand. orders have been received from
the headquarters of the company to
hasten the shipment of all the ice in
Maine as rapidly as possible. Vessels
have been chartered within day or
two with total capacity of 1000 tons
and they are expected in the river to-
day or tomorrow. Others will be char
tered at once. and the balance of the
stock on hand, which now aggregates
about 200. 900 tons. will undoubtedly be
shipped away before the end of Octo-
Der. With empty houses the prospect
of an increased cut next winter is very
promising.

ago. The owner hunted for the animal
everywhere. Finally he ascertained
that the dog was in the possession of 4
man in Mt. Vernon. Yesterday. he went
out to see the man. AS he approached
the house he saw the dog and spoke 10
him. The canine recognized his former
master. broke the chain with which he
was hitched and jumped into the wagon
where Mr.. McGuinness was and COW
cred him with kisses. The ownership
was conclusively proven. The man who
had the dog said he purchased it for SO
from a man who lived about 10 miles
beyond where he resided. An arrange
ment was made and Mr.. McGuinness
brought the dog home with him.

The formation of a High school foot
fall league in Maine is one of the possi-
bilities of the future. There is no
League at the present time in existence.
only an arrangement by which the
High schoo! teams play with each
other. BY the organization of a league
rules might be established and regula-
lions inaugurated that would work 10
the advantage of the teams and the
hetterment of High school football
PLAYING. 1t is understood that the Cony
High bows are in favor of the forma-
tion of league. 1t may come before
the opening of another season. Some
years ago the Maine Interscholastic
Association was a power in school ath-
letics and it should have been kept up.
The prime mover in the organization OF
that associat ton was George V. S. Mi
chaelis. who was then a student at
Cony High and who was its first presi-
dent. f. Bartlett Webster. who after
ward distinguished himself as foot
ball player at Harvard. and who was
also a student at Cony High. was its
first secretary. The proposed league
should be built upon the plan of the
old Interscholastic Association, but
should he wholly devoted TO football.
