rescued from the Bay at the Battery yesterday
by John Kerrigan. of the frsbOat New Yorker.
Kerrigan was at the desk in the hrehouse when

a snow shovel made his way through the binding
to the side of the New YORKER. where he met
fireman on deck watch.
In the darkness and binding the men
with difficulty made their way 10 the edge OF the
Battery wall and listened for the call to be re-

these' Al65 laborers received 10 cents silver an
hour: 245 laborers received 171a cents an hour:
go Were machinists, boiiermakers. pipe filters.

Americans from the United States, whose COM
pensauon is paid in gold. and vino fill positions
as engineers. clerks and foremen. More laborers
are 10 be employed in the immediate future. Mr..
wallace Is somewhat doubtful OF the practical
working of the Civil Service order as recently
applied to canal employees
Reverting again 10 the question of the Bohio
dam. on which depends the construction OF the
So-foot level canal Chairman Hepburn asked
quesuons which brought out statement from
Mr.. wallace as to the probability of finding
proper foundation for the dam. Mr. Wallace
said:
1t is very uncertain. What will be found when
more Dorlngs are taken is entirely theoretical
the various sites investigated have been dsap-
pointing. The average depth bored without find
ing bedrock has been 1853 feet
AS TO foundation for the proposed Gamboa
dam. which is required in all of the alternate
plans Mr. Wallace said
AT Gamboa the elevation of rock on the site
or the proposed dam is al sea level. and numer
rock twenty to twenty-five feet In depth. would
indicate that at Gamboa there is no question
to the ability to find satisfactory rock founda-
ton for dam at maximum depth of sea level
The probable method of construction. say. of
the Gamboa dam. even Of the Bohio dam,
would be the construction of a core of concrete
and the filling in with the waste dirt out of the
Culebra cut. The GambOa dam can be constructed
cheaper than the Bohio DAM on account of the
fact that the foundation is much nearer the sur
face and the dam site much nearer the Culebra
cut.
Answering a question about the operation of
sea level canal, Mr.. Wallace said:
sea level canal would be less expensive 70
maintain. less expensive to operate, save time in
passage through il, and could be widened and
deepened. when required. without interfering
with traffic.
Mr.. Wallace said that he was not prepared to
estimate as TO the time or cost or plan of
canal until he had completed taking data he is
now compiling. He has several parties of engi-
neerS at work along the line of the canal, each
engaged in compiling data of a given problem
but he could not tell when his recommend tons
as to the canal will be ready.

An Exchange Party.

DeLos DeTar gave an exchange
party at his pleasant home on Fifth
street last Friday evening. Those
who attended brought some article of
exchange. After everyone had arriv-
ed the changing began and the clamor
that ensued would have scared burg
lars but the youngsters didn't seem to
mind US. When every one had traded
the packages were opened and pair
of over-alls proved to be the best
change. Dancing and games were be-
gun and lasted until the charming
hostess announced that a prize would
be awarded to the bright child who
could correctly name all the seeds she
had in small boxes. Miss Hazel Reed
"copped the prize" and Ira Evans
was presented with the BOBBY prize,
an ear of corn.
The "crowd" is always pleased
when Mrs. DeTar and her children en-
terrain for they always enjoy them
selves immensely.

The qre>tion of voting bonds to aid
in railr, al construction is now agita-
ting the minds of the people living in
the towl'> hips where the road Is pro-
jecte,i. aud strange as it may seem
quite :, number of people living where
they would receive the most benefit
from ii,i~ road are among those most
strenously opposing the voting of
bonds There seems to be an idea out
that this road If built will be of great
benefit TO this city and for that reason
they are opposed to it. As a matter
of fact this project was put on foot to
benefit the man who is now hauling a
long distance to market and if the
people living in the south part of this
county don't take enough interest in
this matter to vote the bonds they will
hardly be surprised if the matter is of
little interest to the people of this city
should it again be agitated at some
future time. We believe the road
would be good thing for all con-
cerned and believing so are willing to
help the matter along. The man who
simply sits back and kicks is not
likely to be of any assistance to his
community.
