islalion is PASSED it will cause second great
upheaval in the canal administration.
Mr. Mann, in the course of a severe crit
icism of the action of Consulting EDgi-
neers Davis and Burr in voting for sea-
level canal, said: "These men made
strong recommendation of FIRST place for
a lock canal and were two of the three
men appointed as special committee to

dam. 1t was mainly on their recon-
mendation that Congress appropriated
the money to build the Panama Canal.
Now they have Joined with the foreign
engineers for sea-level canal, thus

u. 5. Consul General WILDER at Singa-
pore reports TO the State Department
The boycott of American goods by the
Chinese at that place, the existence Of
which was reported by him the other day,
has been checked. Conditions at present,
he SAYS, have been improved owing to
a police investigation ordered by the Gov
ernor. Inasmuch as Singapore is a Brit
ish colony, and the Governor an English
man, this is taken as an indication that the
policy of Great Britain will be to suppress
the boycott as far as possible, in all places
where she rules in the far East. While this
may be proof of the friendship she enter
tains to the United States it is also probably
dictated by the fear that, if allowed to con
tinue, the boycott movement might possibly
extend so as to be directed against all foreign
made goods.

End of Long Vigil.

Waiting aud watching to the end for
missing son, Mrs. Naomi Welles has
passed away at her home 10 Omaha.
Her death was caused by old age. Mrs.
Wellss had nightly sat in her little cot
tage on a bill with lamp burning
brightly in the window in the hope that
her SOD, who left her eight years ago,
returning, would see the glow in the
darkness and come back TO comfort his
mother The son left home TO make his
fortune. He hoated down the river in
a fish boat with two other young men.
Some time afterward Mrs. Weiles re-
ceived word that her boy had been MUIR
dered in St. Joseph. She left to bring
the body home, but, after viewing it, de-
clsred that it was not that of her son.
From that day until she died she did not
hear from the son she loved. Poverty
stricken and supported by the contribu-
tons of kind.bearted neighbors, Mrs.
Welles had hard time. But no matter
how she was compelled to go without
food she would invariably light the lamp
and sit at the window until sleep over
came her. Attempts were made by
neighbors to induce Mrs. Welles to 20
to the Old Peoples Home, but she re-
fused Later, when illness, resulting
from old age, overlook hel, attempts
were made to move her to hospital,
but the woman refused to be taken from
the house where her son had left her.
"What if my darling boy should come
back and not be able to find me? | could
not think of that" she said.

ANOTHER crisis in the history of the
Panama canal undertaking was reached
Saturday evoing, when the board of con-
sulting engineers by vote of to ,
reached the decision that The great
waterway should be of the seA-level type.
IF this action of the board is approved
by the President, it will precipitate new
and probably prolonged and acrimonious
debate on the whole question OF the con-
struction of the canal in Congress when
the report embOdyiDg the action OF the
engineers goes to that body. This may
be looked for, because the digging of a
sea-leyel canal will take fully twenty years
and perhaps longer, while conservative
estimates of the difference ia cost be-
tween lock and sea-level canal run
from 500, 600, 600 to 5000, 900, 900.
This would make the canal cost fully
$500, 600, 600. This prospect of many
years delay in the completion of the
waterway and Of a vast increase in its
probable cost will be seized on by those
who favor the Nicaragua route to re-
open the whole question of Isthmian
canal construction, thus insuring long
debate especially in the Senate. From
all that has transpired during the two
years since the piercing of the isthmus
wrs undertaken by this government the
jo0 IS likely to be bigger one than
Congress or the American people i'm
agined and the prophecy 80 frequently
made that not a man living at the pres
ent time will live to see the canal con-
pleted, seems likely to be fulfilled.

Young Lady Rewarded.

An usual case of benevOlence and ap-
probation has come to light in Rich.
mond. Miss Winnie Starke, the young
daughter of Jefferson Starke, south Pine
street, two months ago rushed to the as.
sistance of an aged lady, who had fallen
in the street, helped her to her feet,
brushed the dust from her garments,
picked up and replaced her scattered
packages, modestly gave her name to the
old lady upon request, and thought nc
more of the matter. In The course of a
few days she received letter pOstmarked
Baltimore, Nd, and signed by Miss
Bessie Crane, recalling the incident, and
telling the girl to call at a furnishing
house in the city and receive package.
Miss Starke did as requested, and was
presented with a handsome cloak. At
Intervals since that time she has been re-
ceiving letters from the strange old lady,
each one telling her to 60 to some we'll
known house and receive some hand
some article. The girl now has very
handsome wardrobe as the result of a
little kindness to an aged person. The
last letter received babe the girl gOod-by
for time, saying that Miss Crane was
about to sail for Europe, but stating that
her little friend and her kind act would
not be forgotten.

That the Isle of Pines got the advertis-

engaged in the enterprise should be

Killed tho Pigeon.

At half II dozen places In the streets
downtown the cabmen. fruit vendors
and others each day feed the pigeons.
These birds have learned to fly to Ger.
tain spots ut meal time. They know
they will always be fed.
Not only the men who feed the
pigeons come to know them, but the
cab horses seem to take as genuine
an interest In the pretty birds. The
other day on Monroe street 4 flock OF
pigeons alighted in the street. The
cabman who feeds them threw u
handful of oats to the birds ana they
began eating. In the course of few
minutes one blue pigeon got directly
beneath cab horse. The horse took
one step and crushed the life out OF
the pigeon. When the horscS's foot
touched the bird the old cab animal
attempted to rear quickly to raise his
foot from the pigeon. But the horse
was not quick enough. His heavy foot
had killed the bird.
When he saw what he had done
the old horse carefully backed away
several feet ANA looked straight ut
the Tutoring bird. When the bird
ceased huttering and lay dead the oil
horse came forward and gently rolled
IL over with his nose, and for half IN
hour each time before he would step
he would turn his head ana carefully
look where he was stepping.-Chlcagu
