REEDS SAVE SUEZ BANKS.
Nature, Aided by Natural Bulwarks,
Preserves the Great Arti-
fetal Waterway.

When the Suez canal was first con-
templated there were many misgiyings
ls to the possibility Of preventing the
sand from filing up the channel and
many suggestions were made as to the
best means Of preserving the integrity
OF the banks But IT has been discovered
that nature has provided the most Of.
fcient means Of protecting the water
way from injury, and a better one than
the gun-burned brick or sandstone in
Use along certain parts of the canal.
This natural safeguard Is q fringe Of
reeds, which grows thichiy on the Afri-
can side below Ismailia. The Suez Canal
company is making an attempt to raise
these reeds for trananlanting to other
places, but the difficulty is that they
mus be reared in fresh water. although
in after life they readily adapt them
selves to salt waters
On the AsIatic shore of the canal no
fresh water Is pr~ocurab.e, but the dIf-
hculty should not be iusuperable, and
then the Sue1 cana. vii. grow its own
cmbankment, When this time shall have
come a waving green bulwark Of reeds

HONOR FOR HORACE PORTER
Our Ambassador to France Given
Grand Cross Legion of Honor.
CONGREGATIONAL Consent VIII be Neo-
cssary, However, Before Its
Formal Acceptance.

Paris, June 19.--President Loubet has
conferred upon the American ambas-
sador, Horace Porter, the grand cross
Of the Legion of Honor, which is the
highest grade Of that historic order. 1t
is ar honor rarely bestowed, even on
chiefs of states and ambassadors, and
1t IS the first time it has ever been Of
fered to a representative of America.
As under a provision OF the constitu-
ton, the acceptance OF any mark Of
distinction from a foreign country,
ever from a republic, requires the ap-
proyal Of congress, final action in the
matter will await the authorization Of
that body.
Foreign Minister Delcasse called at
the ambassadors residence and person.
ally presented him with the superb in
sigma Of the grand cross. This con-
sists of a wide silk band, worn across
the breast, having an enameled gold
cross at the hip, with an elaborate sill
yer star TO be worn on the right breast.
NJ. Delcasse accompanied the presenta-
ton by an earnest expression of the
high personal esteem which NJ. Loubet
and himself felt toward the American
representative.
The grand cross is the highest of the
five grades of the Legion of Honor.
These consist. first, of cheyalier; sec
ond, officer; third. commander; fourth,
grand office. and, fifth, grand cross. The
latter is the grade worn by NJ. Loubet,
and has been conferred only a few
times in recent years. That the Amer
lean ambassador should have been
singled out for this notable honor is
considered to be a personal tribute to
him and another evidence of the cor.
dial sentiments of the French govern
ment toward America.

Washington, June 20.--At last a type
setting machine is to gain a place in
the government printing office, Pub
lie Printer Palmer has perfected ar
rangements whereby twenty-five Mer-
genthaler and twenty-eight Lanston
machines will be installed in the big
shop, and when congress opens again
next December the Congressional Rec
ord for the first time in history will not
be set up by hand. More may be added.
The hundreds of printers who draw
good pay at the government printing
office have always looked with fear
upon the idea Of typesetting machines
there, but it has been so arranged that
not one of the men employed will be
driven from work. The M~ergenthalers
will cost $500 each and the Lanstons
$3.50 each.

PRESIDENT AND EMPEROR
Exchange of Dispatches Between
Pre- Iilent Loubet and Emperor
william On the Auto Race.

Paris, June ia significant ex-
change of dispatches has occurred be-
tween Emperor William and President
Loubet, following NJ. Thery's winning
the James Gordon Bennett information
al automobile race at Homburg. The
emperOr's dispatches say:
81 hasten to felicitate you, Mr.. Pres
ldeut, on the victory French industry
has just won and of which | have had
the pleasure of being a witness. The
welcome which the public has given the
victor proves how success, gained
through intelligence and common pur-
pose serves to create sentiments free
from rivalry"
NJ. Loubet answered: Il am particu-
larly grateful for your majesty's amia-
bic telegram and for the sentiments
which have inspired it. The success
of French industry could not be better
appreciated than by German industry,
which was so worthy of obtaining sue
cess
The exchange of dispatches created
q favorable impression, ana promises
to alleviate some of the lingering Fran
CO-Gafrlan animOsities.

RAlSULI TO GET RANSOM.
Some Fear That He May Not Tote
Fair After Getting the Money
in His Hands.

Washington, June IA cablegram
received at the state department from
United States Consul Gummere at Tan
gier, in confirming the press report
that the sultan had agreed to all of
Raisuli's terms, adds that TIE money
ransom, $55, 900, was to be paid over
Saturday. Mr.. Gummere expressed
grave doubt as to the ACCESSIBILITY of
making this payment before Perdicaris
and Marley were actually released and
safely returned to Tangier. Based on
past experience, it is feared that
Raisuli is not to be depended on, and
that once he has the money in hand
and still controls the prisoners he will
1iake fresh demands. However, moth
ing more can be done at this stage,
according to Mr.. Gummere, and the
state department will await the con-
clusion of this last attempt to free the
prisoners.
