The Panama Canal Commission
will spend the first year making sur
veys and explorations of the route OF
the canal before the real work Of con-
struction will begin and it is unde-
cided yet whether the commission
will hire hands and do the work itself
or let it ont under contracts. In this
connection New Orleans, as the near
est port of any Importance, will pro-
badly reap no small benefits in fur
nishing supplies for the work, unless
political influnces are brought to bear
and this trade DETECTED elsewhere,
which may be the case if the govern
ment proceeds to do the work itself

GOOD OF BEING CHEERFUL.

A sunny disposition is a work of
art, rather than gift of nature
The raw materials of carefulncss lies
all around us like the colors the artist
combines in his painting. 1t is for
us to combine them. TO achieve 81
serene point of view is just a matter
of selection. One becomes n proficient
optimist in the same way that one be-
comes proficient story teller He Sc
lects aud works over the things that
produce the effect he designs; what
conflicts with the effect he ignores or
treats only as shading, says the New
York Mail.
How anyone can deliberately elect to
look on the dark side of things, eX-
cept as n pose, an attitude, n sort of
gloomy smartness, passes the under
standing An ugly or Respondent
temper is as inartstic as delibertly
ugly painting or dull and repulsive
story, and you como by it in somewhat
the same manner. 1t is a matter of
deliberate selection. Now and then
a misanthrope gives his own bile CON
crete embodiment by erecting build
ing designed to worry his neighbors
through the sheer malice of its ugli-
ness There is little justification
for a sour disposition as there is for
such manifestation of it, 1t involves
degree of perverse premeditation.
There is a wealth of comfort in the
old maxium. "The world is wide -
That is simply to say that it offers
limitless field for selection. If one
fact is black, another is bright. Ii
friend is false, somewhere true
friends are awaiting your coming.
To sit in dark corner while bright
life is everywhere about you; to brood
over sorrow, slight, privation,
| when multitude of good and gener-
Gus and hopeful deeds illustrates the
daily life of the world; to rage at the
limitations of your own estate when
you can make your spirit sympathetic
ally master of everything this is to
declare an indolent and wallowing
spirit. 1t is form of voluntary
servitude to the powers of darkness.

MRS. MAVERICK.

New York, Aug. %. On board the
Red Star Liner Vaderland, which ar
rived today from Antwerp, was Mrs.
Florence G. Maybrick, recently re-
leased from prison in England. Mrs.
Maybrick was entered on the passen-
gers list as Mrs. Rose Ingraham,
name which she took from her great
grandparents This precaution was
not designed to evadc official inquiry,
but merely to avoid annoying obser-
vation on the part of fellow passen-
gers. While she made no secret of
her presence on board and appeared
frequently about the decks and saloon,
very few aware of her identity. She
was accompanied by Mr.. and Mrs.
Samuel " Hayden Mr.. Hayden is
her attorney
Mrs. Maybrck refused to be inter
viewed, but gave out the following
statement:
Il regret that the state OF my
health, as well as business reasons,
prevent my talking to my friends OF
the American press Mt this time as l
should like To them and to my fell
low -countrymen and women l am

behalf, and 1 use this means of ex-
| pressing my gratitude as well rs

lease, which l regret / have not been

company me, / came over under the
protection of Mr.. Hayden, my attor-
ney and his wife. II am assured by
my English physician and by DIR.
Wilmer, of Washington, ID. g., who
prescribed for me during the voyage,
that quiet and mental rest will in
time restore my health
''It is on the advice Of my counsel
and my physician that / have travelled
incogonito, / cannot express the feel
ings of deep joy and thankfulness
with which | return to my native
land At the earliest opportunity

INFLAMABLE WHISPERS.

a few days ago an incident occur
red in New York that will probably
result in fire underwriters listing
whiskers as iufiammable and danger
ous material which Of course will be
followed by an advance of insurance
rates on barber shops where human
hair is amputated and other places
handling or dealing in that product.
1t appears that a New York barber
named Escotti who had an operating
room on Twenty seventh street swept
heap of shorn locks and whiskers i'll
corner and as no patients appeared
to be treated stretched himself in a
chair and began to dream of the blue
skies and yellow lemons of sweet
Italy He was however suddenly
awakened by choking sensation and
found the pile of hair in IA furious
flame.
Rushing to the street Escotti gave
the alarm and it is we'll that he acted
promptly for ten families lived in the
stories of the building. The police
men who ran up stairs to get the peo-
pie to the street were almost sutfocat-
ed, but in spite of the sitting smoke
they fought their way to where a
number of women had tainted and
brought them safely from the build
ing. The fire department then got to
work and prevented the destruction of
the building, although the tonsorial
studio of Escotti was completely gut
ted by the flames. The fire marshal $
investigation disclosed the fact that
Escotti was alone in the shop at the
time the fire occurred, that no one
that morning had been smoking i'll
the place. hence it was impossible for
the heap of hair and whiskers to have
been ignited by lighted match being
thrown upon it. Further questioning
of Escotti however elected the state
ment that the last customer upon
whom he had used his trusty instru-
met was hot-tempered Irishman
with a very red red whiskers and
these whiskers had been swept into
the pile with others that had been
severed from sundry chins represent
ing from different nationalities.
Hence the only theory the fire marshal
could advance if he advanced any as
to the cause of the confiagration was
that the red Irish whiskers became
involved in political argument Oh
some kind of dispute with the German
or Italian hair and blows were strucE
which brought fire from the whisker'
and set the whole pile in blaze
If it is possible to demonstrate sht
correctness of this theory insurance
companies will at once take steps t.
minimize the risk of fire in barbe
shops either by requiring Irish whisk
ers to be separated from all others O
each shop to be provided with va
containing fire extinguisher int
which all hair and whiskers shall b.
deposited Immediately after amputa
tion. States.

GOVERNORS PROCLAMATION.

Governor Blanchard issued his pro
clamation calling upon the people of
the state TO join in the celebration of
"Loui siana Day." at the St Louis
exposition on September 1lth. The
proclamation is as follows:
State of Louisina,
Executive Department.
Great accesssions of territory by one
nation from another come usually as
the result of war But we Of the
great republic rejoice that the Louisi-
ana purchase transaction, which
doubled the area of the United States,
did not involve the shedding of human
blood nor the sacrifice of human life.
The celebration of this peaceful
event by the enlightened people OF the
world is peculiarly appropriate.
This is being done in the greatest
of expositions the world has ever
known now being conducted at st.
Louis. 1t commentaries the centen-
NAL of an occurrence second only to
the declaration of independence in the
history of the United States. This
was the transfer by France to the
United States, 100 years ago, of the
vast region known as Louisiana
Our own state was the spot where
the actual transfer took place. There
fore it is that Louisiana is entitled to
take precedence among the states Of
the union in the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition, an exposition where the
most complete display ever made of
the achievements of the human race
may be found harmoniously represent
ed as befitting testimony to the won
derful progress following the acquis-
| tion of this broad domain
Louisiana the Oldest state in the
purchase the mother of thirteen beau
tiful and vigorous daughters proposes
the lAth Of September a day justly
memorable in her annals as =" her day
and ut that time will take possession
of the exposition and by appropriate
service and ceremonies commemorate
the centennial of American domina.
tion.
She notifies her sons and daughters
to assemble on that day at the Cabildt
Louisiana, state building( on the fail
grounds at st. Louis and assist in the
great celebration. And let us make il
/, the occasion of declaring OF the people
of the world what a goodly land j:
this state of ours and what is it's as
sured promise of even greater develop
ment and prosperity.
She invites the governors and peo
pie of her sister states of the Louisi
ana purchase to join in her celebration
to the end that together they ma,
demonstrate what princely empire
filled with many millions of prosper
ous freemen, has been evolved from
the purchase of 1903.
The chief executive hopes that a
many az possible of the loyal sons ant
daughters of the state will be presen
at st. Louis OH Louisiana day to LEM
lustre and add enthusiasm to the oc
casion.
In testimony whereof, have here
unto set my hand and caused to b.
affixed the great seal e. the State O
