Probablemente eXisten pocaS ciudades
del tamano dc San Juan que no tengan
un club de hOmbrcs de neg0cios, estable-
edo en- lugar centrico, dOnde los asocia-
dos puedan ir durante el dia para to-
mar un refresco y para reunirse con
los otros hombres de negocios. Ese me
dio de reunir difewnteS personals de
una cOmunidad comercial es de tanto
beneficio para los individuos para la
miSma comunidad que ha aSegurado el
eXito de todaS las organizaci0neS de es-
ia clase, donde quiera que Sc han mi

Con ell fin de obtener una lista de aso-

CENSUS ESTIMATES
SLOWLY ANNOUNCED
Washington Alone of Large
Cities Has Received
Official Returns.

Despite the fact that the Census Bu-

out with painful sI0wness- Not a half
dozen S-mmunities have yet been IN

OF the larger cities washington alone
has received its returns A few counties
IN Texas and three or four small towns
in other States made special appeals
for their figures and these have been

elections were contingent upon the last
census and THAI unless their population
was officially known, they could not
proceed

country was first announced After

CANAL EXCAVATION RATE
ENCOURAGES ENGINEERS
Amount of Dirt Removed at Bottom of Prism Shows
No Decrease as Expected, and Indicates
Early Completion of Ditch

One Of the facts in connection with
the excavation @: the Panama canal
that gives much encouragement for
the early completion Of the great wa
terway. is that the amount Of dirt re-
moved does not lessen as the bottom
of the ditch is reached
This has been one OF. the chief qUes-
tions in connection with the time OF
completion L has been generally sup
posed that, as the bottom Of the ditch
was reached, o. the canal prism. in the
official language. the rate Of excavation
would become much slower. This Is
not borne out by Development
The latest report Of the canal com
mission. as given by Acting Chairman
II r Hodges. IN fact. shows the exact
contrary. AL along, interest in the
question Of amount Of excavation has
centered in the Culebra cut The lat

ton OF the canal in May. 1910, was
], ,9s9, 70 cubic yards This was the high
est record in that section for the month
Of May, the highest previous record for
that month having been IN Nay, 1893,
when LOs2,z7 cubic yards were re-

The statistics show tEat the aver
axe output per shovel day for the en-
tire length OF the canal vas nearly six

month O. the previous year.
In the Culebra cut there are about

yards have been removed. This is the
