First Impression Of a Young Pen
saco|ian EMPLOYED on Canal
Work.
NOT AN ALLuRiNo PICTURE OF
THE STRIP THROUGH WHICH
UNCLE SAM is CONSTRUCTING
THE BIGGEST INTERocEANic
WATERWAY IN THE WORLD.

Readers of The journal who are in
terested in Panama and the great
isthm!an canal work, will read with
interest the following letter written
home as the first impressions Of a
young man who has been there sever
al weeks.
Mechanical Department, Cristobal,
Canal Zone, July 10.
According to promise / write you
my first impressions, but am afraid I
won't be able to tell you much of
The land of the cocoanut tree as my
point of view is a very limited one.
Il am more interested in the mos
quito that is insisting on inserting
his probosois into my cucitle, than l
am in a sea level or lock canal. In
fact all of the canal that / know about
is that one hundred and twenty-six
locomotives are being erected for
hauling dirt from the Culebra
Cut. -.
These engines are from the Amer:-
can Locomotive Works. The present
instalment consists of 20x2S-ninety
ton engines. (These are nearly the
same size as the large freight engines
which run into Pensacola over the L.
& NJ They are a good design, but
very cheaply made, and very poorly
fitted.
The Isthmian Canal Commission Is
erecting these engines at the shops OF
Gorgona and here at Cristobal.
AT this shop they have sixty or
seventy reimbursement from all
over. In my gang l have two that
can't speak English. tEficiency is
from good to zero.) The average stay
of machinists ($135.00 per month
mem is six weeks.
The average stay of foremen $500
per month men) Is two months. These
two items are probably proof enough
that conditions are not OF the best In
this Paradise Of fools. '-'

Gently arrived at New York on the
Pretoria of the Hamburg American
line, and their mission is to elevate the
American branch of the genus bowls
to such stage that Packingtown hor-

relegated to the limbo Of the past, says
the New York Herald.
Down in Texas there is a tradition
that twenty-five years ago a solitary

state has been better ever since. The
newcomers are destined for breeding
purposes In Texas.
1t took six months to gather the lot
together, the work being done under
the supervision of DR.. Thompson Of the
agricultural department in Washing
ton, who accompanied the animals to
the United States. The bulls are i'm
mune from the disease caused by the
fly pest and are remarkably clean in
appearance, with their short hair and
the humps on their backs. They came
by sea from Bombay direct to Ham
burg, whence they were transshipped.
