FORTUNES IN SANDWICHES.
Angelo Basso, of New YsFi,N Left an
 Estate of e25os0O0.


 Angelo Basgo, of New ,Yerk,N Left an
 Estate of .s2Do,OO0. New York Times.
 Angelo Basso, who far 70 years was renowned for selling the biggest sand wfch in town for a nickel, and who saved t250.000 out of his profits. is dead at his home, 1ss Thompson street, and the Italians of the lower West Side gathered to honor his memory. He died on Wednesday. aged sixty seven years. and left a widow and two grown sons--Joe. said to be the right hand political man of Battery Dan" Finn, and George. who has grocery store.
 Angelo Basso sold not only his famous sandwiches. but other deli- catessen supplies. The fame of his sandwiches spread from i51 Bleecker street, until the time came when mes- senger boys. working girls, business men even, would walk q considerable distance to get one. For the Basso sandwich was not only large. but 1t was of good material.
 In the old years, when they had six- day walking matches at the Madison Square Garden, and folks went there on Monday morning and stayed until Saturday night. the Angelo Basso sandwich, put on sale there by the wise old Italian, was a standard ar- ficle.
 Although the profits on those send wiches was smalIed than the profits on skimpIer ones. Angelo Basso waxed richer and richer. because he sold s6 many. In time he left his first deli- catessen store. at 151 BIescker street, for a more gorgeous st0re at 20S Thompson street, and took the house at l8s Thompson street. still he made sandwiches. and stfll his fortune grew, so that when he died he was reputed to be worth s250.000. <

 uaxys 1918.
 San Francisco, Dec. 22.--The Pana- ma Canal will. be opened January i, 1915, according to an official communl- cation received yesterday by the Cali fornia promotion committee from Jo- seph Bucl<Iine Bishop, secretary of the canal commission.
 The statement in part is as follows:
 There has been exeavated from the line of the canal since the Americans took control about 56,000.000 cubic yards. This. as near as can be calcu- lated at the present time Is about one- third of the entire excavation necessary to complete the work. In 1908 te No- vember 1, nearly 31.000.000 cubic yards were removed and the total for this year will not be far from 37,00O, 900 cubic yards. This will bring the grand total of American excavation to about 6o,000,0 000 cubic yards. As practically all of these will have been accomplished within three years, the average Is be- tween 36.000.000 and 100000 cubic yards a year.
