TELLS OF THE
PANAMA CANAL
INTERESTING ADDRESS BY j. L.
HAckWoRTH BEFORE BROTH
ERHooD Or ST. PAUL
Organization Of the First Methodist
Episcopal Church Meets at the
Home of J. 3. Mowery-Musical
Program Rendered.

"The Panama Canal was the sub
ject of very interesting talk deliv-
cred last evening by j. T. Hackworth
before the meeting of the Brotherhood
OF st. Paul of the First Methodist
Episcopal church, held at the home OF
j. B. Mowery, corner of North Court
street and Maple avenue.
1t was the regular monthly meeting
and a large number of the members
We're in attendance. Aside from the
talk by Mr.. Hackworth and the dis
cussion on the subject which followed,
short program consisting of several
vocal selections, rendered by Bert
Mahon and Miss Marie Van de Ven
was given. The soloists were accom-
panied by Miss Esther Work. Follow
ing the program refreshments were
served.
Probably no other subject for an adj
dress at meeting of this sort could
be chosen, which would prove as inter-
esting as that of '"The Panama Canal"
Mr.. Hackworth easily demonstrated
that he was thoroughly conversant
with his subject and in order to help
his hearers follow him more fully he
had a large map of the continents
placed where all could see 1t.
Mr.. Hackworth said in part:
"The construction of the Panama
canal has been in the minds of men
for great many years. Not much had
been done towards such a movement
until the beginning of the nineteenth
century and the most that has been
done, was done in the last half of that
same century.
"The French attempted the work
cost of $260.000,000. This Is far more
than we expect to have 1t cost us and
far more labor and time than we ex-
pect to consume. Besides the canal
we expect to build will be far better
piece of work
"The canal the French intended to
build was only seventy-two feet wide,
with a depth Of water of only thirty
two feet. A canal Of this sort today
would not accommodate one-half of the
shipping that would have to pass
through it, For, as an illustration,
some Of the modern merchant ships
are eighty-eight feet in width and
draw over forty feet of water.
Their plan of the canal was sea
level canal, while the one we are at
present building will have locks in It,
which will reduce the work to ire
mendous extent.
Lake Will be IS Feet Deep.
Three miles inland from the Allan
tic a large artificial lake will be built
which will have 118 square miles OF
surface in 1t with a depth of water
which will reach eighty-five feet. This
lake will be held by a large dam with
three locks in it, The lake will take
twenty-three miles of the canal course
which is something like forty-seven
miles long. At no place. will the water.
way be less than 800 feet wide with
less water than forty-five feet deep.
United States Is Fortunate.
ut Is a fortunate thing that the
French did not finish the work on the
canal, for If they had it would not
have been successful 1t is a for
tunate thing that our government got
control Of the right Of way at this
point.

had resulted in a sweeping Home Rule

duced an act to repeal certain Federal
laws. Then there was the optimistic
Hawaiian who introduced an act to

Here we sit in a crooked row
Thinking of people who have the dough
Dreaming of people we mean to do
All complete in a session or two,
Now we are going to-never mind
Brother, your hand sticks out behind.
At a session of an early Hawaiian
Territorial Legislature session full
of rumors Of graft-a newspaper man
took advantage of lull in the pro-
ceedinges to scrawl the above and
pass it across the press table to friend
equally idle. In a few minutes he re-
ceived the following reply:
Col. MaZuma comes charging down:
His Bright gold eagles flood the town,
And we stand in for a share of pelf,
Each dusky brother here for himself,
And the Dell take the hindmost-never
mind
Brother, your hand sticks out behind!
The honorable members were reading
interpreting and wrangling over
| lengthy bill, so the original despoiler
of Kipling had another chance, which
he utilized to reply with this:
All the funds that can ever be found,
| Sinners heavy and yellow and round
Rich man, poor man, beggar man,
| thief
J They can all chip in if they'd just as
4 lief.
Let's pretend weve-never mind
| Brother, you hand sticks out behind!
The politics of Hawaii are full of en-
tertainment, and of square face, pig
and poi. Square face, be it known, is
the Hawaiian term for a large, square
| bottle of gin. In a district of Hawaii
island the other day a precinct club
| got together to nominate a deputy She
riff. The man of their choice showed
his appreciation in very practical
! way. Eleven of those who favored
him with the high honor of their selec-
ton were arrested for disturbing the
peace, and the generous nominee land
ed in Jail for the larceny Of the pig
with which the nominators RECALLED
themselves.
Politics in Hawaii are also full Of
strange Observation-Disclosures "In closing
shouted a well known Hawaiian orator
during a campaign meeting of the last
Bryan effort Il ask your support for
the party that is led by that peerless
American, William Cullen Bryan"
In the midst Of another speakers
address some one shouted for an eX-
PLANTATION of the meaning of sixteen
to one" The speaker admitted that
he couldn't explain it and then, by
way of covering up his embarrassment
he added, Il don't believe there's any
speaker in America that can explain
just what it means"

white speaker who was new to the
game and was candidate for assessor

We're more wild bursts of applause. "As

self to fair and honest and impartial
administration of the office. My per-
