the state, assembled in the city to-
day to attend and participate in the
bird annual picnic, which was given

all previous ones. The crowd began
to arrive early, and by the time that
the day had its journey well under

city were black with people. The
citizens and business men had pre-
pared for the event, and had becom-
ingly decorated their places Of busi-
ness in honor of the occasion, and
the city itself was in gala attire.
Silverton deserves special mention
as that enterprising city came over
bodily, having a special train char
tered.

granted the privilege of the canal, but
at their own risk of delay incident to
inexperienced operation. In addition 1t
was announced by the colonel that the
report that Taft's visit was the fore
runner of a request for another $loO,-
600 900 was unfounded. The canal Will
be completed in 1913 he said within
the $375,OO0,OOO already authorized.
The president expressed amazement
at the amount of work accomplished
since his visit to the iSthmus In Feb
ruary 1909. He displayed knowledge
of technical detail of the canal that
surprised and astonishted the officials.
his familiarity dating back to the time
he was secretary of war, when ne
advocated the lock canal as against
the sea level system. He was greatly
surprised, however, at the immensely
of the dam. some idea of which can
be gained from the fact that the train
was under way nearly three hours on
the spur tracks overrunning the great
hill. The president exclaimed: This
is mountain, not DAM"
The visit of Taft has utterly dis
PEELED any fears gained from the SEN
sationalists respecting the stability Of
the dam base. which is half a mile
wide and so gradually sloped that it
could never be recognized as a dam.
Goethals explained OF the president
that the informal opening of the canal
in 1913 necessitated immediate action
on the part of congress relative to toll
rates because eighteen months will
be required by the shipping interests;
to adjust their rates to the new rOut-
ing. The canal is beginning to take
the form of a waterway and this accel-
crates the interest of the employees,
thus Fastening completion. Goethals is
not officially promising that the canal
will be completed in 1918. lest con-
tractors delays and trouble with the
supplies may interfere The president
rode over the relocated railroad and
ended the day elated to see the won

Darlington, N. D., Nov. 15.-Rev
James l.. Asher, pastor of the Meth
odist church at Darlington, and for
thirty years a resident of this coun'
try, has just discovered that he is
not a citizen O.. the United States.
Mr.. Asher came to America when
S years old and for fifteen years,
since reaching his majority, has taken
part in the affairs political wherever
he has lived. At the election booth
he was challenged and an investiga.
ton proved that he was not entitled
to vote.
The minister has now applied for
citizenship and will become natural
lied as soon as possible. Before look
ing into the matter several attorneys
advised him that he was a citizen.
Mr.. Asher came here with his father
the latter taking out his first natural
ization papers before returning to
Europe. Mr.. Asher believed that his
fathers declaration, thirty-ive years
ago, were sufficient to entitle his sons
to naturalization.
Under the new laws in effect the
past few years, an emigrant to this
country does not become voter by
taking out the first papers, but must
wait until he has taken out the final
papers. The sons get no further In
than does the father.

Good Roads Organization
Plan to Continue its
Good Work
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press
Independence, Kan, Nov. 15.-Prac-
tically every able bodied man in this
county today lent a hand to building
the new road between here and Cof-
feyville, 1S miles away. About 1900
men we're engaged in the work. The
road was completed with the excep-
tion of spreading the oil. 1t will be
oiled later.
1t is the plan of the Good Roads
organization which made possible the
building of the thoroughfare today to
continue to improve every highway
in the county in the same manner.
H. G. James was responsible for the
movement. BY holding a series of
public meetings here he aroused the
interest of the farmers and business
men in the project. A subscription
list was started. Some gave money,
others the use of teams or automo-
biles, and some their own labor. A
holiday was declared both here and
in Coffeyville so that everybody
might have an opportunity to help
build the highway.

Fort Monroe, Va, Nov. 15.-High ex,
plosive tests on the monitor Puritan
anchored in Hampton Roads today
damaged the vessel so seriously that
it was necessary to send hurry call
to the Norfolk navy yard to have tugs
sent up at once to tow the battered
warship to the dry dock. Two explo-
sions were made, each with 200
pounds of nitroglyccrine gelatine, un-
covered except as to thin covering
of sheet iron. In the first test, the high
explosive was placed against the side
of the after turret of the Monitor; in
the second, against The side Of the ves-
sci, just above the water line. Naval
officers and experts present acknowl-
edged that more damage was done
than they had anticipated. The first
explosion cracked the side plate Of
the turret, which was eight inches
thick and forced it inward about eight
inches.
A cat and two chickens, placed in
side in the same positions that the
gunners and sighter would occupy
were not killed. The second explosion
so badly bent the 10-inch side plate
of the vessel. thereby opening big
hole below the water line, that the
rear end of tho boat sank to the bot
tom in less than two minutes. AS the
Puritan draws eighteen feet and was
only in 10 feet of water she did not
disappear.
But in a few minutes at least ten
big compartments were almost filled
with the rushing water and waite. was
pouring over from below the deck and
over the stern Of the old fighter. AL
most on the spot where the superior
ity of the new form of fighting vessel
1ronclad was demonstrated forty
eight years ago today, there was dis
covered a possible new destructive
force in warfare. While it was not
shown positively that the new explo-
sive invention of Willar S. Isham is
more destructiv than the present
form of explosive, which does it's
deadly work from the inside rather
than from the outside, nevertheless
it was practically acknowledged that
srious consideration must be given
to the new explosive.
