co1EDuoATIoN IN MEXICO

The state of Chihuahua viii doubt
less be the first in Mexico to inaugu-
rate co-education in its public schoo:s.
the superior council of education hav-
ing just approved an order for the
establishment of mixed schools
throughout the state as soon as pos
sible, says the Chihuahua Enterprise.
Some time since one institution of
this class, known as the 'Escuela
Modela," was located in the Barrro
del Pacifico in this city where the au-
thorities have been since studying It's
workings with a view to the plans
adoption.
The advantages of this are to be
found in the enormous savings to be
affected thereby, only one building
and one set of teachers being needed
when two are now necessary, Many
of the smaller communities are. in
fact, unable to support two schools.
Mixed schools are, however, a noye-
ty here and the experiment will be
watched with great interest all over
Mexico. The system has been in use
many years successfully in PalmQre
college of this city conducted by Cue
Methodist Episcopal Church South.

ROAD DONE IN TWO YEARS.

w. d. Pearce of Chihuahua, VINO re-
turned this week from Mexico City
and Guadalajara, states that the rep
resentatives of the Hartman railroad
interests in the latter city gave out
the information that the Cananea, va
qui River and Pacific Railroad COM
pany has employed now on its con-
struction work between $1,000 and 49,
900 men and expects to have that
road completed from Guaymas TO
Guadalajara in two years more.
The road is now completed to about
forty kilometers south of San Bias on
the Kansas City, Mexico and Orient
railroad in Sinaloa, and is program
med to reach Culiacan in that state
by July next and is building both
north and south of that city. A force
of about 1000 is grading out from
Guadalajara short distance and the
company has rails and ali materials
for sixty miles of it's road stored in
the yards in that city.
All of this information was given
Mr.. Pearce in the G. Y. R. and P. rail-

by the progress already made in the
building Of the road it is highly prop
able that the road will be into Guada-

Hearst Plans Coup With His
Little Independence League
In National Field,

WASHINGTON, D. c., March A.
That President Roosevelt may De
by Hearst's new national
party is one of the most interesting re.
ports circulated in Washington.
The perfection Of national organi
cation by the Hearst League has sci
afioat a great chain OF reports con
corning its real purpose.
s>>On one point there is general agree
ment-that is, that Mr.. Hearst has for
long time been growing increasing
ly friendly toward the President an6
his policies.
On another aspect there is sub
stantial agreement. That is that Mr.
Hearst does not himself intend to BIZ
a candidate for president this year.
Mr.. Hearst's relations with M
Bryan and his attitude towards the
Nebraskan have been occasion fol
much conjecture, but the best infol
nation available here is that his move
is looked upon with much concern by
Bryan managers.

of the politicians are saying that Mr.
Hearst has placed himself in posi-
rtion to go either way he pleases wher
his national party meets, but that
from present indications he is more
likely to have President Roosevelt
nominated than to make any other
move.
1t is pointed out that while the
President might insist, with ever 81
much earnestness, that he did not de
sire the nomination and would not
run on the ticket, there is no way to
prevent his name being used The
courts might possibly enjoin use OF
Mr.. Roosevelt's name if Mr.. Roose-
welt asked them to do so and if the
man had to go on the ticket. But the

CANAL TOO MARROW
 FOR MODERN VESSELS

This is recalled now among the civil engineering force of the navy dcpart- mcnt, and they are commenting on the surprising fact that if the number of Grst-class engineers that have been on the work since the American gov crnment paid s40OOOOO0 for the canal. not single one should have pointed out this fatal error in the plans and specifications
 that the engineers al Panama must have but recently learned of the Dread noughtS and the Lisitauia and they reason that the absolutely necessary change recommended win add a couple of years to the time that must be es- timated for the completion of the work.
 II will also add materially to the cost of the enterprise. NJ. Dc Lcssups' engineering commission estimated the cost at S43.o00oOO francs: De Lessups himself placed the figure at 60O,000 900 francs or $12O.OOO0Oo and began the 9lup'lo"uS Nhfh Wltu tHe IsnteSt ana most confident of hearts Less than eighi years later his company was bankrupt with $35OOOO,OOo spent and not a quarter of the work done.

DEVELOPMENT
 IN MALONEY ELOPEMENT.

NEW YORK, oct 1G. TIT The mystery surrounding the disappearance over a week ago of Miss Helen Maloncy. q daughter of Martin Maloucy. the Phila- delphia millionaire took another sen sational turn yesterday, if not only be-
 ing developed that she had run away to be married to Samuel Clarkson the young Englishman of wealth who dis appeared at the same time, but also that she was already married
 It transpircd that al the time when MT. and Mrs. Maloncy were hunting for their daughter in New York and believed they had traced her onto the steamer Majestic she and young Clarkson were in Canada. They left the Grand Central depot on the night express and went to Montreal. The next day they were married hy cath olic priest in that city and returned the day following to New Yorl, and left for Europe under assumed names. but as man and wife.
 Now comes the startling statement from Arthur Herbert Osborne. q we'll known broker of this city Immrdi- ately following the announcement of the couple having been married in Montreal and sailing for Europe he made the unqualified statement for publication that Miss Maloncy was his wife He states that they were D4ar- ricd December 2S 19O5. but that the marriage was never announced. IL was kept secret at the wish of his wife. Also he declares that not only did Clarkson know of this marriage, but that short time ago he consulted New York lawyers to see if il could not be annulled. MT. Osborne does not state what action he proposed to take in the matter, but states that he has placed it in the hands of his attor- ncys who advise that nothing further be said beyond the publication of tine above facts.

NEW YORK.-Mrs Mary Ann S Pepper Vanderbilt, the spiritualist me dium. was formally placed under ar rest on Tuesday charged with grand larceny The charge is the outgroWth of the recent legal proceedings brought by relatives of old Edward Vanderbilt after his marriage to the notorious medium. the result of which was that Vanderbilt was declared Incompetent to manage his own affairs and his dauEh- ter was appointed by the count as a guardian. Mir. Vanderbilt at the trial stated that he was worth over $l00,- GOO.
 The present charge against Mrs. Pepper Vanderbilt is of having obtain ed from Vanderbilt house and lot in Brooklyn by false prctonsos, and in the course of the hearing there is likely to be more evidence of q startling nature, the contention being that the medium has had the rich old diclly bird" as she called Vanderbilt. under the inhu- cnce of hypnotsm all the time

WASHINGToN. oct. 21 -- Lieut.. II. r. Rossoau. civil engineer of the Unit cd States navy, ana a member of the lstnmian Canal Commission, has ar rived from Panama and this morning laid before Secretary of the Navy Met calf a proposition to increase the pro- iected width of the canal which i~ now planned for width of hundred feet in the locks This is the rccommenda- tion of the canal commission. and is based upon the large increase in beam in naval construction since the canal plans were formed.
 Secretary Metcalf said the change recommended was mo doubt imperative and the matter would be taken up with the president at once.
 What the additional cost would be is not made public. but no doubt il will not only be a large increase on the "s- timatc. but win also delay the comrle- ton of the canal In his speech at St Louis early this month President Roosevelt said that during the previ- ous month the government had oxca- vatcd over 100000 yards of earth and rock. and that if they were able t" keep up at substantially the same rate of progress that then obtained on the canal they would finish the canal dig ging in five or six years.
 Though when we come to the great Gatun dam and locks" he continued, while there is no question of the work being feasible. there are several cle- mcnts which make it unwisc at pres ent to hazard prophecy in reference thereto"
