Those people must be kidding"
who say that Capt. Kidd buried treas
ures on Deer island. AS the money
found secreted in the earth there was
minted a hundred years or more after
the pirates death, he would have to
be as immortal as the veritable Fly
ing Dutchman to have concealed coin
of the nineteenth century on the piece
of land near Shirley Gut.

ROOSEVELT SEES IT ALL
PRESIDENT MAKES A PERSONAL
EXAMINATION OF CANAL.
CLIMBS ONTO STEAM SHOVEL
Enters the Big Hole on a Work Train,
Makes a Close Examination
and Leaves in Rain.

Panama-President Roosevelt start
ed at Z a. m. with Mrs. Roose-
welt and the other members of his
party to make an examination of the
Culebra cut. The weather was over-
cast, threatening rain. At $3.50 the
presidential train arrived at Pedro
Miguel, where some steam shovels
were at work. The president had his
train stopped for the purpose of max
ing a personal examination. At this
point in the cut the peculiar soil con-
ditions have resulted in more or less
frequent landslides, and this fact was
brought to the presidents attention.
On a Steam Shovel.
President Roosevelt descended from
his train, and climbed up on one of
the steam shovels, taking a seat along
side Engineer Gray, whom he SUBJ
jected to a searching fire of questions
regarding the work. During his con
versation Engineer Gray took the op-
portunity, on behalf of himself and
other engineers, to declare that, In
like the railroad engineers, they were
not paid for overtime. The president
promised to look into this matter. He
stayed on the steam shovel about 20
minutes. BY this time it was raining
hard.
Wanted to See II All.
President Roosevelt told Chief En-
gineer Stevens that he wanted to see
all the works in connection with ex-
cavation, even to the temporary lay
ing of tracks. With this in view, he
boarded a work train near Pedro
Miguel, and went on to the next point
where steam shovels were at work.
Here there was no danger of land
slides.
The presidential train continued on
the regular line toward Panama. The
work of the second steam shovels was
observed, and the president made a
detour to examine the site of the Pedro
Miguel lock.
Shook Hands with Home Folks.
He shook hands with all the Amer
leans he met while walking over the
ground. At about 9:25 the president
entered the deep portion Of Culebra
cut, his train going slowly in order
that he might observe the workings
of the drill machines and shovels. One
shovel was decorated with a sign read
ing: I'VE will do our best to help you
build it."
Torrents of Rain.
The president spent some time in
the deepest portion of the cut, where
last Sunday % tons of explosives were
used to throw down $4,000 cubic yards
of material. The rain was now com
ing down in torrents, and the water
poured in rivulets down the funnel
shaped sides Of the famous cut. Sew
eral charges of dynamite were explod-
ed in order that the president might
see the effect, after which he went
back to his own train.

Judges
Want to
Come Here
CALIFORNIA JURISTS HAVE
THEIR EYES FIXED UPON A
GOOD THING.

A favorable report has been made
in the House at Washington, on the
bill to provide a temporary substitute
for the United States Judge of Hawaii,
and there is every indication that the
bill will pass The federal judges in
California are said to be much inter-
ested in the bill and dead anxious to
have it made a law, for it may mean
that now and then they will have
chance to make free trip to fair Ha-
wall and occupy the seat filed by
Judge Dole, i'm cases where for some
reason or other he cannot sit The
House report on the bill is as follows;
'sThe Committee on the Judiciary
having had under consideration House
bill 14173, hereby report the same back
to the House with a recommendation
that the same do pass.
"At the present there is only one
United states district judge for the
Territory of Hawaii 1t has occurred
and is liable to occur at any time that
such judge is unable, by reason OF tom
porary illness, absence, or other de-
ability to hold court, and there is no
provision of law now covering the diff
ficulty 1t also happens that the judge
may be related to the parties litigant,
or may have some pecuniary interest
in the matter in litigation, in which
case he is or should manifestly be in
capable of hearing the matter in dis
pute. To provide for contingencies of
this character the pending bill pro-
vides that a circuit Judge of the ninth
rirc1lit shall designate one of the dis
trict judges of that circuit to hold court
in the Territory of Hawaii during the
absence or inability of the resident
Judge there. 1t is apparent that some
provision covering the difficulty is nee
essary, and the pending bill appears to
the committee to meet the necessity
and is therefore favorably recommend
/ ed "
