At the instance of Colonel Goe.

charge OF the work on the Panama
Canal. have just made a visit to the
isthmus to inspect the work done
and TO consult with him on the
ground as to certain problems which

The progress of the work is most
satisfactory. II no unexpected OBJ

Among questions arising for pres

the canal shall be fortified. I have
already stated to the Congress that
I strongly favor fertilization, and I
now reiterate this opinion and ask
your consideration of the subject in
the light of the report already be-
fore you made by competent board.
In determining what the tolls In
the canal should be we certainly
ought not to insist that for a good
many years to come they should
amount to enough to pay the inter-
est on the investment of 100000
COO which the United tates has made
in the construction of the canal. We
ought not to do this, first, because
the benefits to be derived by the |
United States from this expenditure
are not to be measured solely by
return upon the investment.
My own impression is that the
tolls ought not to exceed 81 per net

 Lease of WhaIen Farm Expires Soon.
 
 Whalen farm on Lower Dyer street purchased by the borough to get a site for sewer filter beds, is left in the hands of the warden and court of bur gesses. When the farm was purchased last year the officials did not believe it within their power to give a lease to the present occupant of the farm for a longer period than their term of office, and accordingly, leased it for a period of one year for s150. That lease is soon to expire, and 1t Is understood that five year renewal would be agreed to by the man now running the farm There is question, however, as to whether the giving of such a lease would be for the best interests of the borough. and the matter will not be decided until the board has fully in vestigated the pros and cons of the sit uation.
 It may prove desirable for the bor- ough to retain only such a part of the pro perty as is needed for a, filtration plant, and if this proves to be the ease 1t may be decided to sell the remain

chiIi and Peru ouarreIina.

The withdrawal of the Peruvian le- gation from Chili creates once. more critical situation between the South American republics mentioned. The relations of the two countries have been more CT less strained for con- siderable time owing to the refusal of ChiIi to restore the conquered prov inces of Tacda and Africa to Peru. as provided in the treaty of peace nego- tiated at the close of the war between the countries nearly 30 year ago.
 The immediate cause of the renewal of the i'll feeling was the expulsion of the Peruvian priests from the disputed provinces by the Chilian government. Whether the priests were interesting themselves in the political dispute be- tween the countries or not does not appear. but their expulsion has been undoubtedly construed by Peru as be- ing connected with the Tacu- Africa dispute.
 The trouble between the two repub lies, although of long standing, is very difficult of adjustment. Although, ac- cording to the treaty, Chilli was ob- ligated to restore the provinces to their oId-tim sovereignty at the end of period long since past, the new inter ests that have developed since the treaty was entered into have rendered the ChiHans unwilling to release their hold on the rich prize they won by force of arms.-New Orleans Picayune.

BUYS 800 ACRES.
Franklin FarrsI of Apsonis Aeauirs4 Large Tract of Land in Seymour snd Beacon Falls.


 A detailed survey has been made during the past eight months. and through the severest days of winter. says the MiddIetown Penny Press, over tract of land located partly im the town of Beacon Falls and partly in the town of Seymour by A party of surveyors sent out from tho office of w. G. smith, engineer. The land has been acquired by Franklin Farrei oG counsel as to the uses to which it Id to be put in the future.
 The tract includes 800 acres. The land is mostly woodland with a sec tion of meadow land and at present ia assessed at about SIS an acre. On tha land, however, are the Rjmnon brook. the Skokorat brook and a section oA the Hocanum brook, furnishing wa ter privilege of considerable propor- tions. It is supposed that it was foa the requirement of these water rfghtm that the land was purchased by Mn FarreI

Everybody's Vacation.

This is the time of year when a person gets discontented with his sur roundings and wants to flee to the seashore, the mountains, or the fishing pools. It is a good thing to do, good for the body and the soul. But every body cannot do that. It takes money and time. and most of us fellows are not smeared with the filthy lucre-(not to reflect upon those who are) and so have to stay at home and court the blessing of ones own penates.
 But we have a scheme for all those who are not doomed to some rampant summer resort; and that is to get up these mornings at D o'clock, and go forth in the gray dawn. when the birds are starting their songs. and the buds are beginning to break into bloom. Atlantic City and the White mountains are pale and insipid compared to an experience like this. These lovely mornings, now and on through the summer, are made for souls that can appreciate the beauty with which God has festooned this At world. Get up and see. Don't Iak0 our word for it. If your heart is not given over to swim and social whiri you will almost feel the holy presence smiling in the east, and behold a near angel in every bird that sings about you.-Ohio State Journal

Sleep.

All that we know about sleep is that we know nothing about it. The ven erable John Bigelow-Poultney's fath- er-wrote a book not long ago on ''The Mystery of Sleep" and left it more of a mystery than ever. A famous psy- cflologist had lately considered the subject in a book that will cure the average case of insomnia if the victim attempts to read it. The effects of sleep are known, but not its cause or conditions A medical journal says that brain workers should get all the sleep they possibly can, whether it is nine hours or only five Some men sleep slow and others fast. The sec retary of a manufacturers' association in Boston, a man verging on middle age, has for years worked at high pressure and got along finely on an average of three hours sleep day. Most intellectually active men, how ever, can't knit up the raveled sleeve in less than eight or nine hours. They sleep slow.

Taft and Connecticut Boys.

President Taft is especially fond of Connecticut boys. Whenever he meets with a clump of them there is some thing doing. A group of them was here this week from Hartford, where they attend the Noah Webster school They were presented to the president and when Mir. Taft learned that they were from Connecticut he was delight ed.
 The president was insistent on learn ing their names and made each boy answer up distinctly. Each was in- clined to say Harry. or John, or Reg inald, as if none had another name.
 You must speak out loud your other name, boys" insisted the presi- dent, and as each boy so introduced himself he heard with delight tie pres ident repeat his name. One boy was named Bulkeley.
 Are you related to the senator?" asked MT. Taft.
 q am his grand nephew" said the boy.
 Good" said Mir. Taft.
 Then he called Secretary Carpenter to him to give the boys cards of ad- mission to the White house. learning that the youths wanted to sec the in terior of the building.
 One thing we did not dare ask him and yet we wanted to know very much" said one of the boys on leaving the executive offices and that was that the president pose with us in a picture. We wanted to take him. m."- Correspondence Boston Record.

The recent revolt in Honduras whicfA has been expected ever since Zeiaya quit Nicaragua. because zeiaya is credited with having caused the eiec- ton of Miguel R. Davila as presideno of Honduras, and the defeat of Man uel Boniall, is reported to have broken out. 1t is stated that Boniila has m force of several hundred weii-arTi1ed troops. and is prepared to put up q good fight. The standfng army o4 Honduras is 500 men. The miiitia numbers 10000. but its practical en- ciency ss a matter of serious doubt.
 Honduras has half a million popu- lation, about II persons to the square mile. TeeucigaIpa, its capital, has 34,00O Compulsory secular education prevails. There are schools of niedf- cine, schools of law and a central uni- versity. About TOO pupils are m the normal schools hitting themselves fop teaching. The government has been very progressive. But the foreign debt is over $20.000, 900 on which interest has been defauited since 1872.
 In such a land. with sparse and scst- tered population, largely of Indian or mixed blood, yet struggling toward the highest civilization, oivil war is fraught with awful consequences. It may be kept up for years by force absolutely inadequate to hope for eventual victory. Meanwhile. brfgand- age checks industry and enterprise ev- rywhere.-Brooklyp Eagle.

Street Names.

Street names sometimes tell an fn- teresting bit of local history. Camp Cameron, of the times of the civil war. for example. wee near North Cambridge railroad junction, lying in Cambridge and Somerviiie. IL was named after Simon Cameron. secretary of war during the earliest months Of the war Camp Cameron served as a rendezvous for recruits, as an assem- bling place. and where by drills de- gree of rawness could be worn or the hardy sons of the soil and shop, and the days of seasoning begun IL vied with Readville as camps for Massa- chusetts regiments. The veterans Of the civil war have warm memories of their days in these camps. Camp Cameron is now built over with homes and it's old parade grounds and bar racks are squared of into streets and avenues which will make a person realize he is on historic ground. The leading street is Cameron, and then follows Seven Pines, Yorktown, Nal vern Hill and Meade, after the hero of Gettysburg. This naming the streets after the old camp and famous men and battles of the civil war is indeed unique. It makes an historic setting and serves to remind and educate ouy citizens in tine affaarx of a former gen. eration.--Boston Transcript.
