DREAM OF NAvIGAToRs.
Cutting of the Tsthmus of Panama Was Planned by Men of Science
 Decades Ago.

This great dream of the navigator is almost as old as the discovery of America, writes George Ethelbert Walsh, in Cutting a Hemisphere in Two" in St. Nicholas. It was when the conviction spread abroad in Europe, that. Columbus had only discovered 8 new continent, and not new western passage to the wealth of the Indies, that men of science and travel began to think of opening navigable channel from the Atlantic to the Pacific. As early as 1581 8 survey was made to sec If North and South America could not be cut in two. Capt. Antonio Pereira, governor of Costa Rica, explored route by way of the San Juan river, the lake of the same name, and the rivers which empty into the Gulf of ,Nicoya. Costa. Rico. This early survey was the first actual beginning of the story of Pan- anna, which now promises to reach con- cIusion within the next ten years. Diego de Mercado, about 39 years later, made a survey of the Nicaragua route, and recommended to King Philip, of Spain, the construction of an interoceanic canal along the lines described by him. From that time to the year when the French company. under the famous French engineer Ferdinand de Lesseps, essayed to cut the Isthmus of Panama in two, the Nicaragua and Panama routes have been periodically surveyed and re- surveyed until probably no other out-of- the-way corner of the earth has re- ceived half as much examination and geographical attention.

A TREAT FOR THE cADDIE.
The Efforts of Green Golfer to Hit the Ball Were Worth Going
 Far to See.

Golf is responsible for many caddie stories. One of the latest is about a youngster and a well-known course in Scotland. The caddie was waiting around a railway station, hoping for an engagement to carry clubs. Suddenly he spied a new member carrying huge bunch under his arm. relates London paper.
 Garry your clubs for bob, sir" said the caddie, walking up to the new mem Der and placing hand on the bag in- sinuatingly. The recruit shifted the bag out of the boys reach and looked dag gers at him, but made no reply. The boy. followed to the links, continuing to importune him, but to no purpose. The new member went into the clubhouse, reappearing with an opponent whose clubs were carried by boy.
 Garry your clubs for a tanner, sir, '' said the persistent caddie, but no notice was taken of the offer. The new mem ber's opponent opened with a good drive, and then the novice placed the ball care- fully, threw himself into position, swung his club like forehammer, and missed. The rejected caddie laughed joyfully.
 Once more the novice drove and missed, and the caddie's laughter became uproarious. At the third try the ball was dislodged from it's perch and spun over the turf for about six feet.
 "Hi, man." yelled the caddie. derisive- ly, "I'll carry your clubs for the fun O the thing!"

GREAT. MECHANISM.
How Realistic Effects Are Produced in
 the Chariot Race in ssBen Har''

Much interest has been manifested concerning the mechanical methods of the thrilling chariot race employed in Klaw & Erlanger's stupendous produc- tion of General Wallace's famous re- hgious spectacle, Ben Hur,'' which is to be presented at Poli's theater, Wa terbury, for a period of three nights. beginning Monday evening, April IS, and ending Wednesday evening. April 20, with a special matinee on Wednes day, April 20.
 In this great arenic contest the spec tator sees eight horses galloping at break-neck speed and straining every muscle to gain the advantage in a race within the amphitheater. Behind each quartet of horses is a Roman chariot The wheels revolve rapidly, the char iots lurch and sway, and the flaming, be-ribboned garments of the drivers f1Utter behind them. adding intensity to the realism of the scene. The illu- sion is still further increased as the interior wall of the amphitheater moves along and the dust flies in bHnding clouds beneath the crushing wheels of the chariots The chatter of the rushing hoofs of the horses and the rumble of the chariots are distinct ly heard
 Elaborate mechanism and applica- tions of electricity produce this great effect. The mechanism of the two great cradles, twenty feet in length and fourteen feet wide, and which are movable back and forth on railways is supported by q bridge structure ca pablo of holding twenty tons. The +nr0c rSP above the level of the stage. Each cradle bears the four horses and the chariot of each contestant On each cradle there are four runways and treadmills of hickory slats two inches wide and covered with rubber; they are twelve feet long and two and a half feet wide. On each of these treadmills a horse is secured by steel cable traces. which hold him ifl place and prevent him from moving for ward off the runways. As each horse gallops, the treadmill revolves under his feet, thereby eliminating the for. ward pressure created by the impact of his hoofs. which wold force him ] ahead on an immovable surface By this mechanical arrangement 1t Is pos sible for the horses actually to gallop with all their speed within the space of their own length. It is considered the most realistic effect ever seen upon the stage.
 When ''Ben Hur'' was presented in London at the Drury Lane theater the present King of England witnessed ii twice and then commanded a royal box to be built in the center of the pit of the theaer So that he could more thoroughly enjoy the great race scene
