and for a specified cost, and with
just as much absence of friction,
delay graft, chickering's, political
interferences, and all other petty
and pure chiIdishness of that
kind, as similar works have been
and are being carried through by
these same men for the various
railroads of this country to-day.
A cubic yard of earth, hard-pan,
or rock is about the same thing
at Panama as it is in the Rocky
Mountains or on the plains of
Dakota. In Panama SO many
million tons of it can be dug up,
blasted out, and carted away,
with as much certainty as to
cost as it can in the mountains
or on the PLAINS of the Panama
Canal, if given an absolutely free
hand. can gather around him a
staff of engineers just as efficient
for their work as any he may
have handled when building rail-
roads in a more northern CLINE.
The contractors are ready with
their plant and appliances to do
just as expeditions work at Pana-
ma as IN Maine, Missouri, or Cali
tornia, and the work they do will
be measured up, appraised, and
vouched for by the chief engi-
neer and his subordinates with
just as little slost motion" and
with as great dispatch as in the
construction or rebuilding of rail-
roads.
IF the unfortunate experience
of the government in its initial
work on the construction of the
has no other effect than to teach
the above lesson, it will not have
been for naught. The course of
events suggests that the scheme
of administration, as at present
adopted, is greatly over elaborat-
ed and is so cumbersome that 1t
will ever be in danger of break
ing down of its own weight.
We are free to admit that the
circumstances of the precipitate
withdrawal of the lase chief en-
gineer from the work would seem
to augur l for the one-man con-
troll of the work above suggested
that is, if we are to believe that
in the motives that prompted
Mr.. Wallace in his resignation,
he represents the ethics of the
body of professional men to
which he belongs. We candidly
believe that he does not. Caus-
tic as were the words of Secretary
Taft in commenting upon his
withdrawal ssfor lucre" from a
post of such honor, they were
none too severe. On the other
hand, it may well be that there
were many exasperating him
ORANGES to the work of Mr.. Wal
lace, due to the complicated ma
ture. of the administration of the
canal, which have influenced his
withdrawal. Be that as it may,
we are satisfied that if the prero-
gatives of the present chief en-
gineer of the canal were enlarged
to the fnll scope with which he
has been familiar in railroad
work; and if the work could be
organized on the well tired lines
of directness and simplicity that
characterize railrord construction,
there would be an end of the
present confusion, and the dig
ging of the canal would be push
ed through steadily to compile

Conservatory Recital

The recital given last evening by
Miss Ada Henrietta Steel, pianist, as
sisted by Mrs Paul C. Heydenreich'
violinist, covered a difficult program,
which was admirably presented. These
star students of the Los Angeles Con-
servatory are endowed with much tai
ent. The opening number, Beetho-
ven's Sonata, opus 10, No. 6, was
played with good technique and fine
feeling. The violin solo, Hauser's Hun
garian Rhapsody, showed Mrs. Hey
denreich to be far above the average
standard of attainment in method and
Interpretation.
The audience gave the program the
heartiest applause, There were de-
mands for encores, and from every
point of view the recital was dis
tinct success.

Speaks of the Scotch

Scotland-ts traditions, its people,
its songs and it's ballads, furnished de-
lightful topics for the session of the
Friday Morning club yesterday when
Mrs. Henry T. Lee read a paper and
Miss Jennie Winston and Harry Will
liams sang some of the sweetest of the
Scotch ballads.
The dispositions of the Scotch people,
the hardness combined with the gen.
tleness of heart and the warm hospi-
table natures were dwelt upon by the
speaker and her description of the wo-
men of Scotland was especially enjoy
able. The wife and the sweetheart
were both sketched and Mrs. Lee de-
clared there is no sweetheart like a
Scotch lassie.
my Love Is Like Red, Red Rose"
was one of the sweetest of the ballads
sung by Miss Winston, and this was
introduced just at the point where
Mrs. Lee finished describing the Scotch
sweetheart
Miss Mary L. O'Donoughue also con-
tributed to the program.

ATTEMPTS TO UNEARTH
FAMILY SKELETON

An attempt to expose an alleged
skeleton in the Jennison family, 1885
Van Ness avenue, was made in Justice
Chambers court yesterday afternoon
by Wallace w. Wideman, attorney for
Rosa Martin, who is charged with
petty larceny by C. H. Jennison.
"Were not these articles, alleged by
you to have been stolen by Rosa Mar
tin, in truth given to her by your
mother to keep her from telling of an
attempted suicide in your family?'
This was the question asked Mr.. Jenni-
son, who answered nervously that 1t
was not so, before the court had an
opportunity to rule out the question.
us it not fact that your mother
asked Rosa Martin, who was employed
as a domestic by her, to purchase
dollars worth of arsenic with which to
commit suicide?"
This question was overruled by the
court, but it had a marked effect on
the witness, who appeared very ner-
vous and became greatly excited.
Rosa Martins hearing will continue
this morning.

MUSIC AND
THE DRAMA
Jose Concert Company

1t was a small audience that greeted
the Richard ]. Jose Concert company
last evening in Simpson auditorium,
but it became most enthusiastic when
the famous minstrel sang the old bal
lads dear to the young folk of quar-
ter century ago. "The Angel at the
Window" "Silver Threads Among the
Gold" Rose of My Life" and, best of
all, Dolly Gray" touched the hearts
of all who heard them sung in the pure,
sweet tenor voice that has so long
charmed lovers of what is truthfully
called popular music" Mr.. Jose has
a remarkable natural voice, which he
uses with the peculiar mannerisms com
mon among singers who have been
heard on the minstrel stage His enun-
citation is so clear that not a word is
missed and he evidently enjoyed the
spontaneous applause that greeted
every verse of the familiar ballads.
The audience was delighted with the
songs that could be understood and
with the voice that has in it the rare
sympathetic quality. Mr.. Jose's upper
register reaches E fiat above high c,
and although his high notes are not
well placed, they never lack sweetness.
In this his first concert tour Mr..
Jose is supported by the Fuhrer string
quartet, Miss Ruth Estelle Weston and
Mr.. Uda Waldrop. The program last
evening included Beethoven, Wagner.
Schumann, Chopin and Schubert num-
bers. 1t will be repeated this after
noon. All who attend the matinee can
be assured of two hours of real
Measure.

GRAND AVENUE IS
TO Be W|DENED
FROM SEVENTH TO PlCo WILL
BE TEN FEET MORE
PROPERTY TO BE CONDEMNED
City Attorney Prepares to Begin Pro-
ceedlnas SO That the Work
May Be Prosecuted
Speedily

Grand avenue is to be widened ten
feet from its intersection with Seventh
street to Pico street, strip five feet
wide being taken from the property on
either side.
Something over year ago property
owners on the thoroughfare In question
petitioned that 1t be widened and a
year ago the case was carried into the
courts. Yesterday the superior court
notified the city attorney that 7. N.
Garfield, Lee A. Mcconnell and T. A.
Eisen had been appointed referees to
place valuation upon the property
which shall be damaged by the widen
ing.
When the postoffice building at the
corner OF Seventh and Grand avenue
was remodeled it was set back from
the street five feet, and thus will not
have to be altered. All of the build
ings intended to front on the sidewalk
built since the petition was filed have
been set back the necessary five feet,
so that none of the new ones will have
to be changed.
The heaviest damage falls upon Mrs.
Mathilda Cohn, who owns a fiat build
ing on the corner of Grand avenue and
Tenth street. which was built several
years ago flush with the sidewalk. In
order to widen the street this fiat build
ing will have to be so torn up that the
owners declare it might as well be torn
down entirely. The object in putting
Architect Eisen on the board of referees
was to determine, as closely as pos
sible, the damage resulting in such
cases.
The city attorney will Immediately
begin condemnation proceedings upon
the property lining both sides of the
street for the six blocks which are to
be widened. Besides causing damage
to buildings, this Improvement will
necessarily destroy the handsome rows
of trees which border Grand avenue be-
tween Seventh and Pico streets.

The woodmen of the World and Wo-
men of Woodcraft, who have been hold
ing their annual convention in Los An
geles, will complete their labors at a
late hour tonight, unless something
Unforeseen should happen to prevent.
All day yesterday the members Of
each fraternity wrestled with ques-
tons affecting the constitution of their
orders, and not until late at night did
they adjourn their sessions.
The Women Of Woodcraft have de-
cided finally upon permanent loca-
ton at Portland, and the Woodmen
will probably make the question spe-
cial order at their session this morn
ing. 1t Is believed Denver will be Sc
lected as the place, as the order al
ready has nice building there.
Reports of the various officers of the
two orders were received and acted
upon yesterday. They were all in the
line of retrenchment.
Delegates Limited
Delegates to the national fraternal
congress have been limited to five, and
the representation to head camp meet
ings of the Woodmen will be raised
from 600 to 1000.
The Women of Woodcraft adopted
new Scaling" certificate yesterday,
which will extend for three years.
Heretofore the scale certificate has
cnly extended for one year. Salaries
of the head guardian and head clerk
were raised from $4,000 to $4,000 and
from $4,000 to $4,000, respectively.
The delegates are all delighted with
their treatment since coming to Los
Angeles. While the sessions have been
longer here than at any other place,
they all agree that the entertainment
shown them has surpassed that of any
previous meetings.
