The Teachers Institute. which has
been in session at the Athenaeum
building, has adjourned after the
most successful session ever held In
the county. The teachers are now
taking the examinations and it is ex-
pected that a larger per centage OF
them will pass than at any previous
examination.
At the closing session Friday Mrs.
Jesse Tomlinson read an especially In
teresting paper on the Panama Canal
which The Herald prints in full at the
request of the Institute, as follows;
This canal is in the narrowest part
of Central America ana connects Cos
ia RIGA and Columbia.
The plan Of uniting the Atlantic and
Pacific oceans by means OF a canal
across the Isthmus of Darien--now
Panama-was first talked of as early
as 1920, and was much discussed In
the sixteenth century.
Two centuries ago definite and com
plete drawings we're made by the
Dutch, but nothing was done until Fer
dinand de Lesseps called congress OF
nations at Paris in 1879 to discuss the
feasibility of cutting through Panama.
A concession was bought and in 1884
the first force of workers landed at
Colon.
The canal commission estimated
the cost would be $16O,OO0,00O, but de
Lesseps cut this down to $12O,O0O,OOO
and the work proceeded. Up to 1883
or seven years later, immense sums
Of money had been borrowed and the
canal was not one-fifth completed.
Further, borrowing now became Inn
possible and the company being bur-
dened with interest charges, owing at
that time almost 37O,OO0,000, went
into liquidation.
In 1898 the Columbian government
granted an extension of time. Moth
ing was accomplished by this and In
1903 a treaty was effected between
the United States and Columbia.
whereby the United States received
lease of necessary canal land for 100
wears. renewable at the pleasure OF
the United States. In August Column
bia rejected this treaty, and in Novem-
Der Panama asserted its independence
of Columbia, and the provisional gov
eminent was Immediately recognized
by the United States and soon after
by European powers.
November IS, a canal treaty between
the United States and the new Repub-
lie of Panama was signed Panama
granting in perpetuity the use OF
zone five miles wide on each side OF
the canal route, with other lands for
subsidiary canals and for defense OF
the islands in Panama Bay and the
coast line, but the terminal cities OF
Panama, the oldest European city in
America. and Colon were to be under
Panama authority in all save santa
ton and quarantine. For these grants
