or to be entirely safe, say twelve years
and lock canal, even if only sixty feet
above sea level. would require only three,
years less
He reiterated that increased efficiency
could be secured if the work were handled
by single contracting firm, unhampered
by government methods
Mr. Wallace commended that if it was
not too much to hope that the committee
will decline to recommend any form of
canal which is not capable of being in
the future tranformed into a sea level
canal without undue interference with
the worlds traffic or undue additional
cost that this fact alone should take the
, recommendations of the minority of the
board of consulting engineers and the
recommendations of the majority of the
Isthman canal commission, out of really
! serious consideration.
Foundations Must Be Firm.
Mr. Wallace questioned whether Con-
gress would feel justified in endorsing
the construction of any dam of large
say IS feet, the foundation of which does
not extend to bedrock or to some equally
imperishabe or reliable strata.
lis 1t either safe or wise" he asked,
ito authorize the building of a dam one
and one-half miles long to retain head
of water of SO feet across an alluvial val
ley similar to the valley of the Chagres at
Gatun, in which exists already two sub
service gorges, one of which alone is a
thousand feet across and 240 feet deep,
which had evidently been refilled with a
heterogeneous mass of gravel, sand, etc.,
brought down by mountain streams
With this situation in view, he said, 1T
is greatly to be feared that the dam at
Gatun proposed by a minority of the
board of consulting engineers and en-
dorsed by a majority of the isthmian
canal commission, might after some years
be found incapable of withstanding this
strain on it. If it is decided to build a
lock canal, Mr.. Wallace said. then it is
to be earnestly hoped only such form
of lock canal will be authorized as will
be admissible in Connection with the con-
struetion of dam at Gamboa, where it
is positively known that the primary
rock foundations exist at no greater
depth than sea level, rather than at Ga
tun There is said, no urgency that to
his mind would justify the great risk
of earth dams at Gatun or LaBoca.
| The army engineers he said, could most
| efficiently supervise the contractor and
all the governmental functions, includ-
ing policing and sanitation. could easily
be performed under the control and di-
reetion of the government of the canal
zone.

MYSTIC ILLNESS CAUSES DEATH
 0f CALVES
Many Die Suddenly In The Walnut Grove
 District

According to the statement of T. R. Carter, the Walnut Grove stockmnn who returned home last evening, after two days visit here, a mysteriou, discnsc is causing the death of a Iarg, number of the spring calves in hi, section, the nature of which the cattle men have been unable, despite diligent investigation, to determine.
 'Over a dozen calves have died in my ncighborhood during the past ten days Mir. Carter said, "and so faI no one has been able to account fo, tho disease. The calves die suddenly and 1t appears that none but the fat ones become victims to the mysterious sickness. While riding among n bunch of cattle few days ago I noticed n fat calf feeding from it's mother, only to return about thirty minutes later and find it lying dead at the COW < feet.
 "All of the stockmen are inyesti gating the sudden death of some of the'r best stock, and while several the. ories have been advanced. I am satis. fled that the real cause of the trouble has not yet been discovered. It is feared that in addition to those al. ready discovered doad, a number arc dead on the ranges, Some think that larkspur is the cause of it while others attribute the fatal malady to other sourccs."
 MT. Carter returns home slightly lamcd, ns tho result of fall on tn, sidewalk in front of the Burke Hotel after the slight snow storm on Sunday evening, occasioncd by stepping on q lemon peel. His left knee struck tho cement pavement and as . result tn, joint is confused, causing him som, pain.

ATTEMPT ID KILL ]. C|CERELL| FAILS Shot At Door Of Home
 But Survives The
 Wound
Heard No Report Of Gun When Bullet
 Struck Him
,(From Tuesday 's Daily. ]

,(From Tuesdays Daily.)
 Details of what appears to have been A deliberate attempt to assassinato John Cicerclli, watchman at the Esmcralda mine, in the Ash Creek section, on the cvenin gof October II. were made public last evening, whom Ciccrclli, in company with party of hunters, who have spent the past week hunting in that district, returned to this city.
 He stated that on Sunday evening, a week ago, about dusk, hc was aroused by the violent barking of his faithful watch dog. He opened tho door of his residence to ascertain the cause, and fell to the floor. with a bullet wound in his left thigh. The mysterious part of the attack is that Mir. Ciccrclli failed to hear any report of gun, and also that SO far as hc knows he has not an enemy in the world who would desire his death to tho extent of com. hitting murder.
 Fortunately the bulle, passed through the fleshy part of his thigh. making only flesh wound. It struck the op posite wall of his residence, passing through the partition and continuing on its course, showing that it had too much force to bc merely stray bullet
 A deputy sheriff visited the seen, of the attempted assassination, but wa, unable to secure any clue that would lead to tho apprehension of the pcrpc trator of the outrage.

PASTED HIS OWN BILLS.
The Most Memorable Engagement
Edwin Booth Ever Played.

Edwin Booth once told little COM
pany Of his iutimatcs that the most ro-
mantle memorable and delightful en-
gagcmcnt that he ever played in his
life was one in which he was obliged to
paste his own bills
1t was in the early years of his ca
recr, long before his famous hundred
nights run of "Hamlct'' at the Winter
Garden in New York and at a time
when romance and enthusiasm were
still young in his heart He had played
with varying success in many parts Of
the country, journeying even to San
Francisco ana the few camps in the
gold bearing country that were large
enough to supply him with audiences.
Here he had done so we'll that he felt
encouraged TO try his fortune In still
remOtcr climcs and accordingly en-
barked from the Golden Gate for the
Hawaiian Islands, where, IN the Homo
lulu thCatcr and under the direct pat
rOnagc of the dark brown royalty that
then held sway, he played an engage
ment to which he looked back In after
years with much pleasure and salts
faction
But after the play was over" said
Booth, Il found it necessary to climb
down from the high plane Of art to
common ground and take steps to an
nounce my repertory to the public.
This was done almost entirely by way
OF posters, and | could not trust the
job to the native boys, because they al
ways ate the paste and threw away
the bills My actors would not do it,
because they We're such eminent artists
and thoroughbred gentlemen so l had
to do it myself. Many n time have l
taken off the costume of Iago or Ham
let or OthcllO and gone out with q
bucket of paste and roll Of paper to
bill the town. as we say here in Amer
lea, for my next Appearance"
