LOOKING FOR SETTLERS.

According to consular reports the
government Of the little republic Of
Panama has under consideration a
proposition to offer very liberal con.
cessions to settlers. for the purpose Of
Inducing immigration and colonization.
It Is especially contemplated that the
settlers shall be industrious and NOR.
al. and OF an kinds OF natlonalities
and this is good stipulation. II
It Is adhered TO. the country viii be
benefited every way.
Panama has an area OF 1851 square
miles. not much more than one-third
Of The area Of Utah. Its population is
about equal IN numbers to that Of this
state but the entire commerce OF the
Republic IL but a fraction Of what it
ought to be- were It's resources de-
yeloped. There must be room for the
right kind Of settlers. especially IN the
districts farthest away from the canal
zone.
The principal ports are Panama on
the Pacific coast. and Colon. on the
Atlantic side. and these ports are Wis
tied annually boy more than a thousand
vessels which land over one million
tons OF merchandise and nearly 100000
passengers, chiefly Tor transfer over
the Panama Railway forty-seven
miles 600 length. connecting the Pacific
port OF Panama with the Atlantic port
OF Colon. Colon or Asplnwan ne u
Is sometimes called. has a population
Of about three thousand persons. The
city Of Panama has O population OF
about twenty-five thousand Il was
founded in 1879. burned in 1911 and
rebuilt in 1913. while Colon Is Of much
more recent date having been founded
in 1855.
With regard 10 the composition Of
the population. 10 consists OF various
elements-Snanish Indian negro. and
a limited number Of persons from the
European countries and the United

When the motor car first began TO

horse was doomed TO early extinction,

expect 90 ind that the number Of horses
In The United Kingdom has been seri-

therefore. TO md that this is by no
means the case. In 1897 the number Of
horses IN Great Britain aud Ireland was

concluded to wait till | had an oppor
tunity to look around and perchance
do better, so for the nonce the ami
mai was comfortably quartered at NV
expense. They were doing things in
court circles then. The agriculturists
ana stock raisers, ncensed at the I'M
checked and steadily growing manner
IN which grand larceny had been and
was being carried on, arose in their
wrath and put in motion a wave of
indignation which reached the seat of
justice and BODIED ill to Jurors who
permitted those clearly proven guilty
TO escape, as had been the case many
times. At that term of court there
We're twenty-siX trials of four-footed
1elonles, resulting in exactly twenty
six convictions, Reed being among
them. He had an inoffensive way of
acting and speaking, his misfortunes
appealed to the general sympathy,
and his purloining being regarded as
sort of sagebrush kleptomania, SEN
tence in his case was suspended and,
with a sharp admonition by the court,
he was permitted to go. This being
equivalent to an acquittal and the
only one taking place, together with
my reward so near at hand, made me
feel decidedly elated. 1t was along
towards evening when the proceed
ings ended, and next morning | set
about finding customer, first going
to the stable to see how my invest
ment was getting along 1t wasn't
there! Inquiry developed the fact
that Reed also was missing. 1t is
quite unnecessary to explain the sit
uation; undoubtedly the reader
knows what had happened as well as
If he were told.
This incident tends to lend a new
charm to Mrs. WilcoX's delightful doc
trine. Where a manor woman-and
a horse are so bound up in each 9TH
er's affections that in spirit always
and sometimes Gas in Reeds case) in
the flesh they are one and INSOFAR
able, who could be so impious as to
seek the curtailment, let alone abol-
ishment, of the union? Certainly my
and several other peoples, but par
ticularly and finally Reed's-horse
has passed along ere this, and
whether the man followed at once or
remained until by other means than
his own hand the joyful and endless
reunion might be brought about, is
not recorded. I hope, however, that
while they lived no other separation
occurred, and that if there be any
thing in the doctrine of transmigra
ton of souls, consolidation of they
twain may take, or have taken, place
in their aerial abode, whereby as 6
centaur they, or it, may roam the
Elysian fields of the great beyond for
ever more. S. A. KENNER.
