Wins a Good Home.

Yank, a homeless yellow dog, well
known in Washington Heights, New
York, has at l-ast found a home. All
his life he has been doing good
things for people, but W until
recently. when he nearly lost his
life trying to save a wealthy mans
sealskin cap, have his. deeds found
adequate appreciation.
For two years Yank lived at the
West One hundred and ~Hfty-second
street police station. One night the
police men began to throw cigaratte
stumps at him and he promptly
deserted them, going to live with
the fremen of engine No. 3S. For
a year or more he was as faithful to
the fremen, but when somebody in
the enginehouse threw a cup of hot
water on him he went to the street
cleaning department. He did not
take kindly to the men he found
there, and since then he has practi-
cally been boarding around. The
other day came his triumph.
Yank was standing at One hun
dred and ifty-eighth street and
Amsterdam avenue when a sleigh
carrying two men and two women
drove past. A seal cap worn by one
of the men dropped of Yank dashed
after it. He had just caught the
cap in his teeth and was trotting
toward the sleigh when an automo-
bile came up. running very rapidly,
Yank, with the cap partly covering
his eyes and ears, did not hear the

The Panama canal line will be
practically identical with that first
adopted by the old Panama Canal
company and subsequently accepted
by the new Panama Canal company.
There will certainly be some
notifications of details of alignment
but in the main the French location
was we'll considered and the canal
will be built upon it. The total
length of the Panama canal between
six. fathom curves in the two oceans
is 1900 miles, of which about seven
teen miles on the Caribbean side and
eight and one.half miles on the
Pacific SIDE. i. o., practically one half
the length of the canal, is to be
excavated through low marshy ground
little above 10 level. These two
portions of the line constitute the
Atlantic and Piciic sea levels in the
plans of the new Panama Canal
company as well as of the former
isthmian canal commission. This
is an important feature of the pro.
iect, especially in considering ulti-
mstely whether a sea level canal or
canal with locks shall be built, for
1T indicates that in any event a little
more than one-haf OF the canal will
be a sea level waterway. Will it
then be advisable to give to the
remainder less than half the lengthy
the same freedom from restriction to
navigation.
The work before the present 18TH
milan canal commission must neces-
sarily be largely independent of any
thing hitherto contemplated, and its
plans must be developed and COM
pieted for practically an entirely
new project. This is a necessary
procedure for a number of important.
reasons. Among others, during the
past three years, even, mate rial
developments in the size and power
of steamships have been made and
those Developments r in active
progress at the present time.
Steamships owe 700 feet long
have been built and there are already
serious statments from ocean trans
portation companies regarding the
building of ships approaching 500
feet in length. Loaded vessels have

York with a draft of thirty-two or

more Although it is not probable
that the greatest ships a6oat will,
Immediately after it's completion,

ally certain that the opening Of such

traffic and stimulate others, 80 that
il is a measure of wisdom only to
follow the instructions given to the
former commission and tacitly at
least to the present commission, to

GUMENTS BEGIN.
Counsel for Prisoner Attempts to
Show That Arsenic Might Have
Been Absorbed From Soil.

CHICAGO, May 15.-In the Hoch
murder trial today Police Inspector
Sh'ppy told of the confession made by
Hoch to him February 9. Shippy
claimed that Hoch admitted that he
used arsenic in disposing of his wives.
The defense sprang surprise by
closing with but one witness, DR.. Gus
tav Kolisher, an expert, who's testi-
mony was intended to disprove the
theory of the prosecution that Hoch
poisoned his wife. He tried to con-
vince the jury that the body of Mrs.
Welcker Hoch might have absorbed
arsenic from the soil of the cemetery.
Arguments will be heard this after
noon and tomorrow. The case will go
to the jury Wednesday.

Rabbi insuIted by Ministers

DES MONIES, May ia dramatic
incident occurred at the meeting of the
Ministerial association when Rabbi
Sonneschein, the foremost Jewish
clergyman of the state was insulted
after he had been invited to address
the orthodox ministers of the city.
Rabbi Sonneschein mildly rebuked
the ministers who had vigorously
scourged him. Rev. Mr.. Loomis, re-
tired Congregationalist, after hearing
DR.. Sonneschein on Immortality" said
"This Jew says we should use the
word eternity instead of Immortality.
What do we as ministers of the gospel
mean by bringing in a Jew VINO does
not believe in the new testament to
talk to U.S. 1 am ashamed of the min
isterial association. We preach to the
people that this Jew is a liar and then
come here to enjoy mis- eloquence." Sew
eral other ministers joined with Mr..
Loomis, though in a much milder
strain.
Il came here in a spirit of brotherly
love" said Rabbi Sonneschein. Il do
not expect your endorsement. I be-
lieve that 100 years from now we will
all be united in a bond of brotherly
love that will admit of no Catholicism,
no Jewish church, and no so-called
Protestant church"
DR.. Sonneschein offered a prayer for
the ministers VINO had attacked him,
and several divines Joined in an
amen"

THE "HOoPs" ARE COMING
Dressmaker Says Every Woman II

CHICAGO, May 15.-"Every woman

This was the prediction made at the
meeting of the Chicago Dressmakers
club, after a demonstration by the
president, Mime. M. J. Van Hosac, OF
the reiuyenated article of the feminine
wearing apparel. The sentiment, gen.
orally concurred in and greeted with
applause, emanated in no spirit or
frivolity. but on the judgment OF a
gathering of thinking business wom-
en-. wno went into the matter with all
seriousness.
The new hoopskirt is not such Tor
midable affair as the cartoonists have
depicted. It is made at present OF
featherbone, a kind of sprlngy STUN
similar in action to a strip of celluloid
AS Nine. Van Hosac made it, the skirt
is formed by dropping half dozen
lengths of tape from a belt, the tapes
reaching to the knee. Strips OF the
featherbone are bent in circular form
about six, twelve and eighteen inches
below the waist, and attached to the
perpendicular tapes.

Judge Shaffer The church people
were the principal remonstrants
Around the corner from the new
restaurant built by the bank was a sa-
loon owned by man named Riddle
The church did not demonstrate against
him and he got a license. He sold his
license, stock and good will to the
Farmers bank for $4,000, high fig
ure, and the bank is connecting the
Riddle saloon with it's white Dog"
restaurant on Olive avenue, just across
from the First Presbyterian church.
The Farmers bank has applied to
the court to have Riddles license
transferred to the superintendent Of
the bank building. The church people
are evidently beaten this year by the
bank, but the fight is to be continued
at the next license court. James w.
Friend, of Chadwick fame, is vice pres
ident and director of the Farmers
bank.
