COURSE OF THE PROJECTED

The plan under which we are pro,

lens in the most practical manner pos,
sible. The artificial channel extends
to deep water in either ocean, its ex.
IRENE length being fraction less than
fifty miles. The inland canal is some.
what short of forty.two miles. A cut
at sea-level, three miles long and $40
feet wide, leads from Mindi, on the
Atlantic shore. to Gatun Lake, to
which vessels will be lifted by a triple
flight of locks. These locks, like all
others in the construction. are in du.

depth. over the inter sllls, of forty
feet.
The lake, with surface at summit
level Of eighty-Rve feet, will permit OF
unrestricted navigation through the
greater part of its twenty-three4mile

NEW CAPS FOR LETTER CARRIERS


tUnion Associated Pressl
NEW YORK, April 15.-The New
York City letter carriers have decid.
ed to discard the rough rider hats that
they now wear for cap.
The New York Letter Carriers As.
ISOLATION advanced two reasons to
Postmaster Morgan for their desire to
substitute the cap for the soft felt hat.
One was that 1t improved the general
effect OF the uniform. The rough
rider headgear after a little wear also
loses its shape and becomes decidedly
"slouchy." Another reason was that
this form of hat was more difficult to
keep on the head on windy days.
The new cap for the letter carrier
will bel shape like that worn by
them in winter, with slight differ
ence in the shape of thew isor. They
will be of a light weight canvas some.
what lighter in color than the uni.
form, and waterproof.

HAIR CAUGHT BY AN AlRSHIP
Young lady's Tresses Shorn Just In
Nick Of Time to Save Her from
Injury.

Asbury Park. n. 1.-THE friends of
Miss Helen Bull. a young woman who
lives In Garwood. noticed when she ar.
rived here that her hair was cut short.
She explained that 1t had been been
shorn hastily to save her from injury
by a wild airship.
Miss Bulls father has been interest.
ed In aeroplane discoveries. He con.
structed a model about four feet wide
by two feet long. equipped with an
electric motor.
Several days ago Mr.. Bull gathered
his family around him in the dining
room. poised the aeroplane on the top
Of book case. gave 1t a shove and
twist and let 1t fly. The next In
slant Miss Bull screamed and clasped
her hands to her head. The whirling
rudder of the aeroplane had caught in
her psyche knot, as the machine
swooped. Every revolution Of the
aluminium screw gripped her hair
tighter. Mr.. Bull seized a knife and
slashed his daughters tresses free OF
the machine just in time to save her
from serious injury.
