ARRANGING
TO PROTECT
The Big DITCH
UNITED PRESS LEASED wIRH.I

Washington, April 5,-Coincident
with the work on the Panama canal
the war department is rapidly work
ing to complete plans for its defense
in time for the opening of the big
ditch in 1910.
Heavy ordnance is being made and
huge emplacements constructed for
the adequate protection of the canal.
The amount of work entailed in forti-
flying the canal makes it doubtful
whether all the great guns will be in
place when the ditch is thrown open
10 commerce.
The cost of Notifications and their
care must fall upon the Panama ca
nal itself If tolls and revenues are
not sufficient to defray the costs, it is
probable that a bond issue will be de-
cded upon to meet the heavy ex-
pense.
Portions of the canal. including
such vital spots as the Gatun dam,
and the Mirahores locks, are on pri-
vate ground, and would be exposed
TO destruction in case Of war. The
land must be assessed, acquired and
fortified before the canal can be re-
garded as adequately protected.

HIS CONUNDRUM.
Propounded in Prose, 1t Was An
swered in Rhyme.

In the olden time before the war,
the days so famous for generous hos
pitality in the south, brilliant party
was assembled at dinner in a beau
titul country homestead. Across the
table wit flashed back and forth, and
the guests began to vie with one an
other in proposing conundrums.
Mr.. Alexander H. Stephens offered
one which puzzled the whole COM
pany, what is it that we eat at
breakfast and drink at dinner?"
For some time no answer came,
and the bright eyes of the southern
orator began to sparkle with triumph,
when Colonel Johnson, taking up the
Commonplace Book" of the hostess.
