my friends who are readers of
The News would not object to a
short letter from a foreign coun-
! try.
First, [ must say that belong
to Uncle Sam or at least 1 have
been under his command for the
last 3 years, 9 months, and upon
my arrival at New York City,
March 4th, 1909, | will have
circled the globe in Uncle Sans
service, also visited the principal
countries and Cities of the world,
and at last Uncle Sam is not so
bad after all. 1t was the good
ship Colorado, which cost the
Government seven million dollars
that | made this long and
memberable cruise.
The Colorado is a man-a-war
and has the best gunnery record
Of any Ship in the American
Navy. At our last annual target
practice at Madgelena Bay, Mex
leo, Nov. 10Th, 1909, the men of
the Colorado made a worlds
record Of Is shots, % hits, with
the 8inch currents in 3 minutes
/ As seconds, at a range of five
thousand yards. AS the result of
this record the Colorado holds
another record Of having travel
ed more miles than any other
Ship in the u. S. Navy, being in
commission the same number of
years from the time the Colorado
left New York City in 1909, until
we arrived in Panama, the Colo
RADIO will have travelled eighty
six thousand miles.
Panama, PANOMA.
We arrived in Panama Dec.
IA, 1903, with the rest Of the u.
S. Pacific Fleet. Many a boy at
school has fallen down in a hard
lesson in history but rarely a
dullard so great as to fail in re-
cital Of Balboa conquest of Pana-
ma and the discovery Of the Pa
cific Ocean. The attempt to dig
the Canal was first made by the
Panama Canal Co., a French
company under the control of
count Fordiand De Lesseps, a
noted engineer and promoter Of
the Suez Canal. The extreme
extravaganza and foolish eXpedi-
ton proved the undoing of the
company. A second company
was formed but also met with
failure. During the Spanish
American War the Importance of
an Isthmus Canal was realized
on more than one occasion. Had a
water way connecting the two
great Oceans been in operation
at that time or period the long
journey and record braking run
of the Battle Ship Oregon around
the horn would have been re-
duced to a trip a few days only.
The present canal treaty be-
! tween the United States and the
Republic of Panama was signed
November 18th at Washington
D. c.. and the first canal commits
sion was appointed by President
Roosevelt on Feb. 29th, 1904.

TALCAHUANO CHILE.
On Dec. 9th. 1908, at $50 p.
M, the fleet was under way for
Talcahuano at twelve knots
speed. The next day Neptune
was received with full honors
with the following day a holiday
was observed. To avoid currents
the Ship was kept we'll out at
Sea where we met cool weather
unexpectedly considering the
Equator. January the z, the speed
was increased to fifteen knots,
so that the afternoon of the 9Th
found us off Talcahuana. The
next day, the 9th, the fleet began
putting on war paint, the new
slate color approved by Congress.
Owing to the early sailing orders
We did not enjoy the hospitality
of the port as We expected. Tai
cahuano was typical Spanish
City of little interest and was
connected with Conception, a
much larger place, by electric
railway. Owing to high tariff
prices were exceedingly high,
making it a poor liberty port.
VALPARAISO CHILE.
On January 18th, 1909, the
fleet got under way and stood
out Of the harbor at twelve
knots speed and by turning north
dispeled forever the rumor of a
cruise around the Horn. A few
hours outside we parted with the
second Division which preceded
to CoQuimbo, Chile, while we
turned in Valparaiso. Arriving
there on the morning of the 18th
we m00red in column Of fleet
formation. Valparaiso proved to
De very prosperous place where
one got eighteen dollars for five
in gold. 1t seemed they gave
away all they got without accum-
ulating anything but wisdom.
The races at Vina del Mar, the
gardens and homes about were
very interesting. A few hours
distance the Capital Santiago,
was situated. The trip however,
being long, hot and dusty at the
time Of year; was not so attract
i've as it could have been. The
Chillians are remarkable people
in many ways, the Army espec-
tally. The Cavalry Arms is a
model of a efficiency while their
Navy in smartness and appear
ance ranks very high. The Ma
ton as whole is a very military,
one following the German sys-
TEN Of training. They were
friendly and cordial to any one
( connected with the fleet and by
their kindness won many friends
/ among us. We owe them a debt
Of gratitude which we hope some
day to be able to pay in kind.
CALLAO, PERU.
! At 11:30 Jan. 21st, we slipped
our mooring and stood out for
Callao. The days at Sea was
spent in manieuvering and exer-
cising the guns until the morn
ing of the 9th when the anchor
was dropped off at Callho. Just
as the fog lifted above the har-
Dor we rounded the Island and
stood to the anchorage forming

MORE WHEAT PER
ACRE THAN ELSEWHERE.
Northwestern States Claim Preced-
ence--Idaho is First With
20 Bushels.

Spokane, Wash, Dec 2S.-Idaho.
Washington, Oregon and Montana are
the four greatest wheat producing
states per acre in the Union, accord
ing to statistics just compiled by A.
F. Hit, special field agent in Idaho,
Oregon and Washington, for the bu-
reau of statistics of the United States
department of agriculture. He gives
Idaho first place in the production
of winter wheat, the average yield be-
ing 20 bushels. Washington is sec
ond with 25,9 bushels. Oregon being
third with PIG bushels The general
average of the United States is given
at 1873 bushels. Montana heads the
list in the production of spring wheat,
the average yield being 2SS bushels
Idaho is second with &c bushels and
Washington is third with 20.6 bushels,
the general average of the United

fetal figures are not available, it is es-
timated that the wheat crop in the
four states named is near the 65,000,-
600 bushel mark this season, with
prices higher than they have been at
any time during the last 80 years.
The quotations today are from 81 to
81 cents, but there are also records of
sales at prices ranging from 81

Mexico and independent newspapers
in the southwest, who have taken
up the cudgel in defense of the Mex,
ican government are holding up the
Luis PrOtO case as conclusive evil
dence that justice in Mexico is not in
as precarious condition as some
would believe. Some of them even
go as far as to say that at least in
this instance Mexico did better than
the United States would have done.
The case is briefly this. About six
months ago Luis Proto, prominent
Sonoran, was shot and killed from
ambush near his home. Investigation

crime All of them were arrested,
tried and convicted and will suffer
the death penalty by being shot. Don

who committed the foul act, should be
executed, but that Pablo Gomez Jr.,
of the firm of F. Espinosa & Bros,

also implicated, should share his
fate. Rafael Lopez, who turned state
evidence was sentenced by him to
eight years in the penitentiary. To
satisfy the claim of the widow and
son of the murdered man, the court
has attached the property of the con
victed men to the amount of $245,500
Owing to the very high social and

New York, Dec. 2S.-It was official
ly announced that the Rock Island
has acquired the controlling interest
in the Lehigh Valley railway, and it is
understood that by January II, 1910,
it will be announced that the Rock
Island has acquired the controlling
interest in the Wabash road making

1t is also believed that through an
arrangement with George Gould and
the Western Pacific, the new trans
continental line will be formed, the
Denver & Rio Grande filling the gap
between the Rock Islands western
and the Western Pacific's eastern ter
minal.
The announcement of the Lehigh

Spokane, Wash, Dec. 2S,-W. r.
Clark, an inventor, living in Spokane,
has completed a model flying ma
chine, one-sixth of the normal size,
containing 925 cubic feet of plane sur
face, with which he will attempt flight
early next month. He believes he has
solved the problem Of successful aer-

the sides and the rear of the ma
chine with two top wheels, giving the
same action as the gyroscope The
speed of the side propellers is 1000
revolutions a minute, while the gyro-
scope wheels are geared to 1000 revo-
lutions minute. There is also a
dome to hold the air under pressure
and give the ship the steadiness main

GET AFTER
FOOTBALL RULES.
Seventy Seven Colleges and Universi-
ties Represented at Gathering
in New York.

New York, Dec, 2S.-Seventy-seven
colleges and universities were repre-
sented today at q gathering in this
city of athletic interests which ex-
pected to give fore to demand for
reform rules in foot ball. The meet
ing was the fourth annual convention
of the Intercollegiate Association of
the United States, and its action is
considered to shape decisively the
foot ball rules committees action in
the revision of the rules of the play.
West Point has taken the lead in pro
posing a number of reforms. These
were submitted today and found
strong support. They included elimi-
nation of the neutral zone, modifica-
tion of forward pass, limiting the
number of interference. English
rugby, or Soccer foot ball, has been
suggested as a substitute for the pres
ent game
