Here From Panama.

E L. Housman, who for the past four
months has been at work on the Pana
ma Canal as pit foreman. is at his
home in Bladensburg. He was station
ed at Culebra. thirty-seven miles inland
from Colon, where some of the heaviest
work of the whole route will have 10
be done, and where some of the best
American excavating machinery ever
constructed is in operation.
Mr.. Housman is enthusiastic over the
possibilities of Panama. He thinks the
climate is Incompatible, the soil ex-
ceedingly fertile and the people ccrupu-
lousIv honest The outlook for sub
stant.al progress, he says, has improved
since the resignation of Engineer Wal
lace.
If he can obtain quarters he will be
accompanied by his family on his re-
turn at the expiration of his leave Of

affecting health are not nearly 50 bad
as generally believed and under the
American administration they have
greatly improved.
