THE OPPORTUNITY or TODAY

The opportunity Tor the man with little
means is probably better today In the prairi"
states ufthe southwest than ever before In
the history Of the nation. To be sure, there
is not she vast open choice Of land for the
humesteads that existed In the '70s. The
lands then taken up under Government laws
are now prosperous farms and ranches.
There II need Of more hands To develop the
country. In the Southwest. Indian Territory,
Oklahoma and Texas are vast areas OF un-
improved land not vet producing the crops
of which II Is capable. Practically the same
thing il true Of the towns. Few lines OF

ACTUAL PROGRESS
IN CANAL WORK
Two of the Isthn1ian Commission
Report 1000 Men Digging
- Waterway. .-.....

New York, Feb: 22.-Reports of sub
stantial progress in the actual work Of
digging the great isthmian canal were
brought to this city today by William
Barclay Parsons and w. II. Burr, canal
commissioners, who arrived on the
steamer Alliance from Colon. Profess
sor Burr says:
The committee on engineering of the
isthmian canal commission report that
they found the work generally in much
better and more advanced condition than
they anticipated. In the great Culebra
cut, the detail Of construction that will
take the most time and most money, the
chief engineer has at work three large
American steam shovels and Is erecting
five more. Four thousand laborers are
now at work and 1000 more have already
been engaged.
Substantial progress Is therefore being
| made. .- ..-.. ...
The committee returned more than sat-
isied with the general conditions of the
enterprise and believes that completion
can be attained in less time than Is pop
ularly supposed. Some time has Of neces-
sity been devoted by the engineering staff
to the study and investigation Of certain
details not fully determined by the
French. This preliminary work is now
really ended and the actual work Of con-
struction on large scale can soon begin.

.ll6 KNOWN TO F..
Be DEAD IN MINE
Miners Not Killed by Explosion
Drowned in Rush of
Waters. ,-

Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 22.-Two
staff correspondents Of the Birmingham
News, who have just returned from
Virginia mines, say that when they left
there at CLOCK this morning, forty
eight dead bodies had been taken out.
A number Of corpses, the rescuers re-
ported, were still in sight, but could not
be reachcd because of the water. The
explosion broke the water pipes, flood
ing a large part Of the mine: It is
therefore possible that many Of the men
were drowned. as several bodies have
been seen floating around in the flooded
rooms. Fortyfour bodies have been
taken to Bessemer, where a vacant
storehouse is being used as a morgue:
In many instances it is impossible
to identify the corpses, so badly are
they blackened and mangled.
Absolutely no hope is held out now of
finding anyone alive in the mine, espe-
cially in view Of the discovery that
many of the rooms have been flooded.
Conservative estimates on the number
Of men in the mine place the total at
JIG, and there is no doubt but that
every man is dead. The work Of re-
covering the bodies viii be slow. 4.

In regard to the serving of the sub
Grimshaw was equally reticent.
Inquiry among the officers of the
local branches Of the Chicago packing
companies reveals that while no wit

the large independent dealers said it
was expected that some Of the retail
dealers will be called on to tell what
they know of determinations.
Paul was complete surprise to the
managers themselves. The subpoenas
were placed in the hands of the deputy
marshals Monday night and orders were
given to locate the men wanted so that
service on all could be made at exactly 9
am, the same moment when the man
