Hanna arrived at the executive offices
L. w L

Hanna arrived at the executive Offices
accompanied by w. J. Curtis, a men,
Der of the law firm of Sullivan &;
Cromwell, of New York, attorneys in
this country for the new Panama Canal
company. They were admitted to the
presidents Office at once.
Mr.. Curtis remained only few min
utes. He said he merely paid his re-
spects to the president. Senator Hanna
remained with the president for more
than half an hour. Long after the
members of the cabinet had assembled
he and the president continued to talk,
several of the cabinet officers joining
in the conversation.
No Clash Expected.
With the exception of brief cable
gram from Admiral Glass announcing
his arrival at Panama, no cablegrams
were received over night by the State
and navy departments. So it is pre-
sumed that the statu quo is being main
tanned there. There is no oxpecta-
ton here of a hostile clash on the
isthmus in the immediate future, for it
is believed that the Colombian gov
eminent, when fully advised of what
has happened, will accept the inev-
table, and not attempt to send troops
to attack Panama in the face of the
United States naval vessels guarding
the approaches.
The state department was notified
Tuesday that tho Colombian govern
ment had established censorship over
cablegrans destined for the interior
of Colombia reaching Buena Ventura.
This practically cuts eff free commu-
nicaticn between Bogota, the capital
of Colombia, and the outside world.

France Recognizes Republic.
Paris, Nov. 1.-The French gov
eminent has recognized the de facto
govern .nent of the Republic of Pan
ANA. The instructions forwarded by
Foreign Minister Delcasse to the
French consul at Panama authorize
him to have relations with the new
government The instructions are
substan tally the same as those sent
from Washington to the United States
consul 1T Panama, and will have the
effect of giving the same recognition
of the new regime as the United States
has already given. A formal recog-
milton will follow later when the new
government is fully organized, but the
instructions Of the consul definitely es-
tablish the attitude of France toward
the new republic. The action Of d..
Deicasse is not yet publicly known.

Washington, Nov 11.-An important
conference concerning the Panama sit

ing of the cabinet. The participants
in the conference were President Roose-
welt, Senator Hanna and members of
the cabinet. The decision reached, if
any, was not disclosed. 1t is under

Plant Trees.

A contributor to the Lexington Her
aid, says: "Let the ladies of the cities,
now by interurban road made twin, be
upheld in their good work. Let the
land owners on both sides plant the
seeds and plant the trees they can so
quickly procure, and plant them well.
The shade for stock, the value of tim
Der, the falling moist, and the value of
trees on land, will be their immediate
reward The weary traveller resting
beneath their shade will bless the hand
that planted long after that hand is
graspless dust. The scene of beauty
will, like a spectral image on polished
metal, fall on receptive minds, forever
there to work for good. And that plant
ing will be the joyous Mecca to which
untold generations of children will tend
with lissome tread, If the heart of
childhood ever swells with joy, or its eye
kindles with anticipation, it is when the
nut begins to fall Then if ever, when
the hand is stained, the lip furnished
and the sack filled, its heart has room
for no other earthly bliss And these
rows of trees planted here, planted
everyw here in this glorious land, will
break tn, winds that dry the fields and
PROSTATE the grain. Not more of rain
will fall, but that falling will longer
fill its mission"

Let Paris Have a Hospital.

Many centuries before the Christian
era there existed in India and Ceylon,
institutions which performed the func-
tons of hospitals. They were built
and maintained by the Buddhists. In
scriptures there is a mention of what
the Hebrews called Bethesda, but this
was nothing more than a few rude huts
in the neighborhUod of mineral spring,
supposed to have healing properties.
According to Leeky (history of Euro
pean morals,) the fir t hospital was
founded by Roman lady named Fabi-
ala, about the fourth century. at Rome.
Soon after, another hospital was found
ed by Sc. Pammachus, and another by
St. Basil, at Caesarea. During the cru
sades, numerous hospitals arose in all
parts of Europe. Son Spiritu, built by
Innocent III, was erected in 1904. at
Rome. The first hospital in England
was built by Lafrance, Archbishop Of
Canterbury, in 1880. The first hospital
of any size erected in America, was the
Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia,
which was begun in 1851. by DR.. Band.
So you see, Paris is living compare
lively in the darker age. Everybody
help Paris with a hospital.

This was the question to which the

equestrian statues would be most appro-
