Need of Panama Canal.

No story can better illustrate the great
need of the Panama canal than that of
the splendid race against time made by
u huge battleship, the Oregon, during
the Spanish war. She lay in far-away
Puget sound, and was wanted at once in
Cuban waters. In the great need Of the
moment, how tantalizing became that
narrow neck of land, the isthmus of
Panama! Only 80 miles across, yet that
30 miles compelled Capt. Clark to take
his battleship clear AROUND the South
American continent. Fourteen thou
sand miles instead of 1000! Fifty-nine
days of furious steaming under forced
draft instead of less than q days! That
was a wonderful race, around the
Horn" and it was equally wonderful
that the big fighting ship sighted the
blue mountains of Cuba just in the
nick of time to do her full shale-and
more-in the great sea fight.-St, Mich

FlSHSKIN FOR LANTERN.
Made by Japanese Dwellers in Ha-
waiian Islands from the
Swell Fish.

The puffer, or swell fish, has the
power to distend itself with air into
the shape of a globe. Japanese living
in the Hawaiian islands make of the
skin of the big puffer found in Ha.
waiian waters an odd and grotesque
lantern.
When the skin of the big puffer has
been first removed, while it is still
soft, it is stuffed out to it's full size,
in globe shape, and so left to dry.
The skin is not much thicker than
paper, and translucent, brown on the
upper part and gray below. The fins
are preserved and dried sticking out
from the fish, the tail being perked
up at al angle.
A circular opening is made in the
back of this distended fishskin,
through which the light can be placed,
and in which is set horizontally a
hoop or rim by which the lantern can
be suspended.
Such lantern made of a big puffer's
skin may be a foot in diameter cross
wise and fifteen inches in length, and
what with the head of the fish ap-
pearing at one end and the perked-
up tail at the other, and the fins pro-
jecting at the sides, this fishskin Ian
tern makes a very curious object.

GREAT MANILA CARCOES.
American Ships Bringing Thousands
of Bales of Valuable
Hemp.

The presence in Boston harbor of the
great steamship Mississippi. flying the
American flag. and the expected arrival
of her sister ship. the Missouri, turns at
tention to a field of our commerce yet
in it's infancy, says the Boston Tran
script of recent date. These two
ships with cargoes of almost 3d.
900 bales of hemp valued at about
100000 each indicate the magni-
itude of commerce from the Phil
ippine islands to this country in its pres
ent unorganized state. and suggest to
the thoughtful person that a well-devel-
oped trade between the United States
and its insular provinces would be q
bringer of prosperity to all concerned.
The trade in Philippine products is be-
ing developed by Boston and New Eng
land capital, and there are a few firms
in Boston who are seeing ahead and
building accordingly. A few years ago
the steamer Concord-the argosy of a
number of Massachusetts people, and
mannedby others-sailed from Boston
to Iloilo to be used in developing the
commerce of the islands. Every few
weeks the tramp steamships of differ
ent nations come into Boston harbor
with their burdens of hemp and sugar.
The steamship Missouri now on the way
has on board 5000 tons which with her
cargo of $4,000 bales of hemp will make
the valuation of her burden above
81 900. 900.
