At ALL CHURCHES

Programs.

Easter was celebrated In all the
churches Of Washington yesterday.
Elaborate musical programs, special
sermons on the significance of the day.
and beautiful floral decorations were
the features Of these ceIebra lions never
before exceeded in the history of local
churches. Congregations that taxed
the capacity OF the churches were pres
ent at the morning services and in sub
urbs as well as in the city the day was
appropriately observed.
Specially augmented chOiTs at various
churches sang the Easter music. several
being assisted by orchestras. The new
sanctuary choir OF ST. AlOysius' was
heard for the first time and formed the
most impressive feature OF the Easter
service. The choir was blessed by
Mgr. Diomede Falconio, papal delegate.
A special program was sung at St.
Patrick's Church with the assistance
Of an orchestra. Solemn vespers were
sung at 7:3O O'Clock in the evening and
a special sermon was preached by the
Rev. Albert Smith OF the Apostolic
Mission House.
The vested choir at St. PauI's mum
bered eighty-five men and boys and sang
an Easter program which eclipsed any
work the choir has heretofore done
Holy Trinity Church, Georgetown,
drew a large congregation and the choir.
which was the first vested choir to be
organized in the Washington Catholic
churches, was never heard TO greater
advantage.
The Shrine Of the Sacred Heart still
maintains a mixed choir and sang GOU-
mods mass 10 St. Cecilia. A feature
Of the Easter day at st. Dominic was
the early morning service when 80
men, members Of the Holy Name SOci-
ETY., received communion n a body
A large congregation heard the Easter
service in the picturesque St. Johns
Church, Forest Glen. where Haydn's
second mass was sung by a choir from
Washington under the direction OF Miss
Mary Hessler.
Episcopal. Presbyterian. Methodist,
Lutheran and Baptist churches all
Joined in celebrating the day. President
Roosevelt attended services at Grace
Reformed Church. where a special mu-
steal service was given.
The chancel of the Pro-Cathedral,
Church OF the Ascension, was beautiful
" decorated and the vested choir
chanted the Easter service.
Dr. Wallace Radcliffe preached the
sermon at the New York Avenue Pres
byterian Church and the choir sang a
special program at the morning and
evening services
Following the morning services in all
the churches the streets were thronged
with smartly gowned maids and ma
irons and only the increasing high winds
drove the promenaders IN when feather
laden hats were threatened with des-
truction.

GATUN DAM SITE
BEING INVESTIGATED
Experiments Will Be Ex-
haustlve and 10O-Foot
Pit Is Being Dug.

According to advices from the Pana-
ma Canal Zone, the Isthmian Canal
Commission has set on foot a systematic
investigation that is intended 10 afford
all the necessary information requisite
for the construction Of the huge Gatun
dam and its foundations. This is the
one particular part of the construction
OF the canal that many have regarded
as beyond the possibility of successful
engineering accomplishment The com
mission does not regard it so, but It has
set on foot most exhaustive inquiry
preliminary TO the actual beginning OF
construction of the dam
The experiments are on an extensive
scale, ard include some entirely new
problems and determinations. The
Gatun experiments are under the d.
rection of c. NJ. Saville. who for eleven
years was on the hydraulic work OF
the metropolitan water board OF Boston.
Similar experiments viii be carried out
at all other points along the line OF
the canal, where they may be OF use.
1t is the purpose of the commission 70
ascertain all the principal facts bearing
on the dam at Gatum, and its founda-
tions, thus making it possible to design
and build a structure that viii be stable
and enduring beyond any question.
Study Underground Flow.
IN general, the experiments are d.
rected to ascertaining the nature OF the
soil on the site OF the dam, and the
character OF the strata for a great
depth underneath the dam. This mat
ter has been gone into TO some extent
before. but in the present case It IS be
ing explored into with greater thorough
ness than ever The velocity OF the flow
Of the underground water, for one thing.
is being studied by an electric methOI
followed by Prof. Schhchter n United
States Geological Survey work
The question Of what materials or
mixture Of materials is most available
for use in the dam and foundations is
being studied The frictiOnal resistance
OF soils and rocks 70 the passage OF
water and the fractional resistance OF
soils to pressure are ling looked into.
Digging IOO-FOot Pit.
At one point. a huge exploration pit
is being dug. It Is proposed 20 carry this
down at least 100 feet The pit is TWEEN
ty feet square. Frequent analyses OF
the character Of the soil taken out are
made.
Studies OF the land slides at various
points on the isthmus are being made
The problem of how 10 deal with these
is ono Of the large questions confront
ing the canal engineers.
The problem OF where TO get materials
from which to construct Ihe huge en-
bankment at Gatun is itself not an easy
one TO solve The experiments under Mr.
Saville are giving attention to this
question Thus far they are resulting, in
satisfactory way and in a way re-
assuring TO the prospects for success
ful completion OF the great task that
the building Of the Gatun dam imposes.
