PANAMAAND COSTA
RIGA HAVE COME
TO AN AGREEMENT

Washington, March pa protocol con-
upon which Chief Justice Fuller of the
United States supreme court will arbl-
trate the boundary differences between
Costa Rica and Panama has been signed
by Luis Anderson, representing Costa
Rica, and Belisario Porras, on behalf of
Panama.
The credit for the settlement of this
long standing and difficult controversy is
undoubtedly due to Secretary Knox and
other officials of the state department. A
few months ago the governments of Pam
anna and Costa Rica formally asked the
good offices of the Secretary of State to
bring about arbitration by Chief Justice
Fuller and it was through Secretary
knox's efforts that the chief justice
finally accepted the task.
Ever since Columbia and Costa RIGA be-
came independent of Spain there has
been boundary dispute between them.
After many fruitless 'endeavors to reach
an agreement, treaty was made be-
tween Costa RIGA and Columbia in 1886,
submitting the question to the arbitra-
ton of the King of Spain, and upon his
death the President of France. The
case was brought before President Faurs
and after his death was decided by Pres
ident Loubet in September 1900. Almost
Immediately IT TRANSFERRED that on account
of the lack of maps based on accurate
surveys there was much uncertainty
about the line which had been estab-
| lished. Neither party was satisfied with
this award and the matter remained
some time in allegiance.
| In November, 1908, Panama separated
| from Columbia, and of course. became
heir to the dispute which now for the
first time since Panama became indepen-
dent has been reduced to terms for arbi-
| tration. ~

THE COBRA STONE.
A ceyIon Story About the Reptile and
lfs Shinino Lure

|
Its Shining Lure.
Every one knows that Ceylon is ia
nous for the amount Of queer and rare
precious stones found in the sands OF
its dried up river beds. Among these
is one called "chlorophane," a rare
variety of fluor spar. which shines at
night with phosphorescent light There
has long been tradition among the
natives that a certain species Of cobra
makes use Of this stone to attract In
sects in the darkness. Indeed, the
name given 1t is 'naja-kaller," or
cobra stone. A scientist resolved to
test this wonderful story during stay
in the island, SC offered any cody 8
rupees to point out stone carrying
cobra. In about a week an old Tamil
came In and offered to show him one.
He followed this guide, and, sure
enough, there, under an immense
tamarind tree, he saw little point or
steady greenish light and could faint
ly distinguish behind q cobra coiled
and slowly waving Its head from side
to side. It would have been desper-
ately dangerous to approach the rep
tile, and the cody begged him not to
do so, saying that next night he would
himself get the stone. He did so, and
in rather clever fashion. Before dark
he climbed into the tree, carrying q
large bag Of ashes. After nightfall
the cobra turned up, as usual. and de-
posted its treasure, which 1t carried
in its mouth, before It. Thereupon
the cody emptied his bag Of ashes
over the shining object and the
frightened reptile after wild but
fruitless search crept back into the
jungle. The cody descended, search
ed the ashes, found the stone and re-
ceived his promised reward.-London

are made up, lifting the metal lines
of type here, making corrections or
shifting cuts there and locking the
room, where the paper matrices will
be made. When the matrix is placed
in the casting box the molten stereo-

very few minutes the cylindrical

the staff of the paper in all depart
ments working as probably they had
never worked before, except on elec-
tion night. The story required conslo-
cradle time for preparation. The notes
of Howard and JEFF, the two reporters
who recorded the conversation of Brand
and Bartelmy, had to be translated
from shorthand into English. Then an
introduction and head had to be
written, and the art department had
to break all previous records in turn

grapn resulting from the flashlight.
In the composing room men were
working like galley slaves to get the
great Bartelmy exposure story into
the forms. The composing room In
the Advance building was a double

built in the rear part of the room to ac-
commodate the proofreaders. This Sec
ond story was really but half story,

composing room, and the walls were

The voice Of Edward Dupuy was
heard outside.

justified in assuming that 1t had arisen
