in the garment workers strike here To
night there is a well defined feeling among
labor leaders that the backbone OF the
strike is broken and there is little fear that

OF the strikers that the tide has turned IN
their favor came with the signing Of an
agreement by Cohn, Rssman 4 Co. and
Alschuler, Dreyer & Co, by which 800
men are to return to work for each firm.
No mention of wages is made in the agree
ment which provides forty-eight hours
work each week for cutters and fifty-four
hours for miscellaneous employees. The
agreement also gives the firms the right to

ers to be a victory

One OF the greatest triumphs in the his
tory of engineering is the completion oI
the tunnel, or series OF tunnels, through
the Andes, which allows direct railway
travel across South America from Buenos
Ayres TO Valparaiso. Hitherto, winter
travellers went by way OF the Straits OF
Magellan, rough sea voyage. The tun-
mel has been in process of construction
for many years, and twice the work ha
been abandoned in despair. A New
York syndicate solved the problem at last
and il is announced that trains will be
running early in the coming summer.
There are three tunnels, aggregating a
ength OF eleven miles. The highest sta
ton on the line is about ten thousand feet
above sea-level The third Of the tun-
nels is described as screw-Shaped, and
drops twenty-seven hundred feet in
distance Of twenty-seven thousand feet.
The total cost Of the work is about twelve
million dollars.

Work Upon The Panama Canal.

Every two minutes a ton of GOALS bur N
up at Panama; every minute II carloads
of rock and gravel are torn from the earth /;
every hour 800 pounds Of dynamite shot
in mountain and jungle; every minute
Sl25 is spent for labor
One hundred and thirty-two steam en-
gines are shrieking and creaking in the
9-ulile ribbon of the Culebra cut. 10000
shirtieSS men are sweating and swearing.
80 flat cars are running. One hundred
and six miles OF track split the gorge; a
dozen set of rails, in width Of 200 and 800
feet, are hung in tiers one above another.
Sixty-seven steam shovels are plunging
0-ton scoops into the earth two and three
times a minute. More than 1000, 600
cubic yards of earth are wrested from
the soil every 80 days.
On the two sides of the Inferno squat
the twin peaks OF gold and snow hills,
like couple ofapples which a schoolboy,
has nearly bitten through. Roughly, a
hole, measuring 97,5l5,00o cubic yards
must be bored in the Panama clay TO
make the canal a reality. When the
French gave it up, 81 SOC, 600 cubic yards,
had been excavated. The Americans
have added 100000 cubic yards 10 this
total Picture chasm measuring l25
feet in every direction, in which could be
buried 25 ordinary three-story houses,

equivalent OF such chasm is bored every
day along the course Of the canal. the ex-
cavations approximatIng 100000 cubic

An IndestructibIe Snake.

Snakes on the pampas Of South Amer
lea have many enemies. Bunowiug owls
feed on them, and so do heronS and
storks, which kill them with blow oI
their iavelin beaks. The tyrant bird
picks up the young snake by the tail, and
fiylng to a branch or stone, uses the rep
tile as fail until its life is battered out.
The large lizard of the pamPas, the iguana,
is a famous snake-killer II smites the
snake to death with ITS powerful tail.
Mr.. Hudson, in his Naturalist in La
Plata, tells this story:
One day a friend OF mine was riding
out, looking after his cattle. One end OF
his lasso was attached to his saddle, and
the remainder OF the foty-foot line was
allowed to trail on the ground.
The rider noticed large iguana lying
apparently asleep, and although he rode
within few inches, il did not stir. But
no sooner had the rider passed than the
trailing Iasso attracted the lizards atten-
tion.
II dashed after the slowly moving rope
and dealt it succession OF violent blows
with its tail.
When thel whole Of the lasso, several
yards of which had been pounded in vain,
had passed by, the iguana, with uplifted
head, gazed after it with astonishment.
Never bad such wonderful snake crossed
its path before.

Food From The Sea.

From the earliest days large part Of
mans food-supply has been drawn from
the depths of the ocean. The Scriptures
abound in references to the use of fish as
food, from the opening chapter of Cen
esis, where man is granted dominionrover
the fish of the sea, to the books of the
New Testament, where the Saviour feeds
the multitude on the fishes, and breaches
to the fishermen, who drop their nets to
follow Him.
Fishing has always been leading in
dustry. The latest figures give the annu-
al value of the worlds fisheries at about
four hundred million dollars-aImost as
much as the annual output OF all the gold
mines. The United States leads, with
sixty-three millions, Great Britain comes
next, with about fifty-fiye millions, and
Japan third, with about forty millions.
In this country seven thousand vessels
and two hundred and twenty thousand
men are employed in fishing, and their
contribution to the value of our food sup
ply is nearly as much as that OF all the or
chards in the land.
Not many years ago the consumption
of ocean fish was limited to those living
on narrow strip along the coast. Now.
as a result Of fast transportation and the
perfection OF refrigeration, every section
OF the interior is promptly supplied with
fish from each Of the great oceans. This
has meant steadily widening market for
fish. greater demand and higher price.
The system OF cold Storage-the retention
of temporary oversupplies-has had a
tendency in the same direction.
Nevertheless, fish remains relatively
cheap article of food, as well as one Of
the most nutritious. There is little dan
ger that the people as awhole will eattoo
much fish. Although the supply seems
inexhaustible, the government is wisely
doing what can be done in the way Of
propagation and conservation.

"My Name in Mothers Prayer

Years ago, in Scotland, little boy
passing by the open door where his
mother was kneeling in prayer. caught,
as he passed, part OF sentence. 1t
contained his name-"my little David. I"
The boy, like most Scotch children, was
in home permeated by religious at
mosphera; yet until then he had given
little real thought to the more serious
things of life. But this incident touched
him at the time, although not so deeply
as afterward. Through the long years
that followed he heard the echo in his
heart OF his name, uttered in the accents
of solicitude and affection, in his mothers
prayer. He knew she prayed for him ey-
cry day, of course, but the causual hear
ing Of that name-his own name, David
came back to him in memory, and
grew more tender as the years went on.
He grew to manhood, came TO Amer
ica, and began life for himself in great
city. With the sobriety and honesty
which one might expect in boy trained
as he had been, the young Scotchman be-
gan TO make his way upward. In time he
married, and by middle age had become
a prosperous and well-known banker
Yet, in all the years, he had never for
gotten the incident OF his mother mention
ng his name in her prayer.
One night he wrote some verses, and
handed them to his wife. She sent them
to friend, who sent them to another
friend, and he sent them to noted
Brooklyn preacher. The minister them
read them in sermon, and they found
their way into print, without any name
attached to them.
Nothing more was heard OF the verses
for perhaps ten years. Doctor Toney
and Mr.. Alexander were preaching in
Aberdeen, Scotland. One night Doctor
Toney announced that Mr.. Alexander
would sing a new song, entitled, "My
Name in Mothers Prayer" He said the
author was unknown.
So Mr.. Alexander sang the song which
contains the lines:
And as in quiet eventide
passed her kneeline there.
That j. ST one word-my name hear,
Ny name in mothers prayer"
On the platform among the ministers
sat an Aberdeen pastor, who, at the close
of the meeting, said, al know that Incl
dent, and the author OF those lines can be
no other than my brother, who is bank
er in America"
Ii was news to the banker when he
learned from his brother that his little
poem had become a popular gospel
song, and he was rather glad than other
wise that his name had not been signed
to stanzas so intimate and personal, and
il is his own reluctance to further public
ity that causes the Withholding OF his
name from this incident. But those who
have heard it will be glad to know that it
came out of the heart OF busy man,
who through the many years that had
passed since that boyhood event never
ceased TO hear and be moved by the echo
of his own name in the prayer OF his
mother.
That kneeling form. those folded hands.
Have vanished into dust:
But still for me for aye shall be
The memory OF her trust
And when cross dark Iordan's tide.
And meet her over there
Wen praise the Lord who blessed that word
My name in mothers prayer
