GENTLY. To attempt to secure men to
do this work on insufficient salaries
would amount to putting a premium on
ineficiency and corruption. Men fit for
the work will not undertake it unless
they are we'll paid. In the end the men
who do undertake it will be left to seek
other employment with their chief re-
ward the reputation they achieve. Their
work is infinitely more difficult than
any private work, both because of the
peculiar conditions of the tropical land
in which it is laid and because it is i'm
possible to free them from the peculiar
limitations inseparably connected with
government employment. While it is
unfortunately true that men engaged
in public work, no matter how devoted
and disinterested their services, must
expect to be made the objects of mis-
representations and attacks. At best
their positions therefore are not attrac-
tive IN proportion to their Importance
and among the men fit to DO the task
only those with a genuine sense of
public spirit and eager to do the great
work for the works sake can be OBJ
tanned and such men cannot be kept if
they are to be treated with niggaTd-
Illness and paTsimOny, in addition to the
certainty that false accusations viii
continually be brought against them

''I repeat that the work on the 18TH
mus has been done and is being done
admirably. The organization is good.
The mistakes are ordinarily few, and
these few have been of no consequence.
The zeal, intelligent and efficient serv-
ice of the isthmian canal commission
and its subordinates have been note
worthy. I court the fullest, most eX-
haustfve and most searching investi-
CATION of any act Of theirs, and if any
one of them is shown to have done
wrong his punishment shall be ex-
emplary. But I ask that they be de-
Gently paid and that their hands be
upheld as long as they act decently.
On any other condition we shall not be
able to get men of the right type to
do the work and this means that on
any other condition we shall insure, if
not failure, at least delay, scandal and
inefficiensy in the task of digging the
giant canal.

PRISONERS SECRET LETTERS.
How Inmates of City Prison Communi'
Gated With Friends Outside.


A most important discovery was re-
Gently made by Warden Hook of the
Baltimore city Jail in the fact that let
ters written by the aid Of an Invisible
process have been leaving the institu-
ton, and that the writings were OF the
most private nature. Some eight or
nine months ago there was prisoner
at the Jail. who served a sixty day SEN
tence on false pretenSe charge, and II
was this prisoner the warden has
since learned, who introduced the
scheme to other prisoners.
The man confided his scheme to Sc
lect number of other prisoners, and
one of the letters written by this same
process got into the hands of the war
den, who soon learned all about IT.
Prisoners are allowed to send one let
ter a week from the institution, but
every letter that goes from the Jail Is
either read by the wardel or one OF
his subordinates. A certain amount or
paper is given each prisoner, and he
is allowed to write Oh but one side or
the paper.
Instead of filling the entire side OF
piece of paper those who resorted TO
the new scheme would leave space
about an inch and half deep, whlch
seemed apparently blank. But through
tile ulSCONSlN IL NdS louiiu NhSNs
letters that got out of the institution In
this cute manner were full of writing.
The process used was a liquid acid
gotten in the institution. 1t was ex-
planned yesterday that the prisoner
had made a study of deceiving the Of
ficials, and that he had gottel on to
the trick through some friends. He
used fine stub pen with which to
write and had to write quite fast In
order to get the acid to make an i'm
preston.
The warden has since learned that
the man would have a fellow priso o1er
who was released from the institution
ahead of him go to the perso. s houses
to whom the letters were addressed
and tell them of the sch me and how
the letters could be read. The letters
had to be held over heat in order to
distinguish the impression, and after
a little study the writings could be
read quite distinctly. He also told
prisoners that he could write letters
with uric acid, lemon juice and vine
gar. Warden Hook said that he has
heard of letters being written through
the latter three processes. but the one
used in the jail was entirely new to
him.-Baltimore American.

HE'S A CUcKoo.-This story was told
recently at a smoker given by the
alumni Of the University of Michigan
at Chicago.
"A young man and his wife, not long
married" said the relator Of the Incl
dent, lived down on the South Side
where they had a pretty little two
story brick. One of their wedding
presents was a large clock which told
the hours and half-hours by means OF
the cuckoo's cry instead of by the
usual chimes or the sounding OF bell.
One night the college fraternity or
which the man was member, gave
banquet, and 1t was accordingly late
when he arrived at the front door Of
his home. He thought that discretion
was the better part of valor' SO
that when he got inside he began to re-
move his shoes before going up the
stairs. Unfortunately he was not very
happy in the execution Of this act, for
one of his shoes slipped and made a
noise that could be heard all over the
house. A moment later his wife's
voice came from the head Of the stair
way:
"Is that you, Charles"
"'Yesh, dear
What time is it, Charles?'

>".And them said Charles, in telling
the incident afterwards. that blamed
clock began to cry out. But 1t cuck-
ooed only three times, and l had to
stand there like a fool and cuckoo the

HE KNEW IT WAS GooD.-One OF the
leading officials in the United States
bureau Of printing and engraving had
a somewhat peculiar experience while
on a recent visit to New York.
His business being to study ana
compare certain engravings made by
metropolitan engravers by order of the
bureau the official never left or re-
turned to his hotel without a handbag
which he was careful never got out
of his possession. On requesting and
receiving his bill at the end OF several
days, he rendered in payment brand
new $50 silver certificate. The clerk
looked at 1t and then passed it back.
What's the matter?" inquired the
guest.

coldly. ~ don't think it's good"

F. 8. Landstreet, vice-president Ct
the Western Maryland Railroad Com
pany, and other representatives Ut the
Gould interest, accompanied by ex-
Senator Henry G. Davis. are inspecting
tho~Coal d Coke railroad in West Vir-
GINA, owned by Mr.. Davis. Despite
the denials few months ago by Gould
representatives, it is believed the Coal
& Coke road will be taken over by the
Gould interests within short time.
1t is said that the inspection being
made BY Vice President Landstree,
and others will result in the deal being
closed in few weeks. The Western
Maryland has traffic agreement with
the Coal & Coke Railroad Company,
by which through service is established
between Elkins, w. Va, and the
coast. The latter road, it lie said, will
form an important link in the Gould
line from Baltimore through rich coal
fields in the West Virginia district.

Official notice has just been posted
by the Cumberland Valley Railroad
Company that on and after Dec. /, all
employees of the road at present receive
ing less than 5000 per month will have
their pay increased 10 per cent.
The increase affects every depart.
ment of the road, so that the benefits,
direct and indirect, will be marked.
The action Of the Cumberland VAL
ley in granting this increased is In keep
ing with the policy OF the Pennsyl.
vania management, which recently
decided upon an increase of 10 per
cent.
At the office of Division Freight
Agent w. j. Rose, of the Pennsyi.
vania Railroad, at Harrisburg, was de-
MED ithe report Of the increase in
freight rates. 1t is the opinion Of rail-
road officials that under strict obser-
vance Of the new rate till the increased
revenue from the present rates, with
the constantly expanding business Of
the railroads, will be ample to nors
than meet the increased dividends and
advances in wages.
