ed, brush is cut. There is string Of
hospitals across this isthmus that pro-
vide everything that modern science
can devise for the ailing. The sick
and death rate in the zone is lower
than in most of the cities of the states,
but Col. Goethals refuses to allow un-
due credit to be given for this, for, he
states, the people on the isthmus are
all in the prime Of life.
In the zone justice is administered
in way that ignores the customs fol-
lowed in the States. Matters are ex-
pedited. There is no place for a COM
plant against the laws delays. Col.
Goethals has developed a system of
getting Immediately at the justice Of
any case. The cumbersome jury trial
method is resorted to only in cases
where the death penalty or life impris-
onment is involved. Summary Justice
rules. There is dispatch, immediate
action. No community in the states
handles these matters of law in half the
time they are handled in the canal zone.
A system OF recruiting labor has been
built up that works itself. There is
never a dearth of labor on the isthmus.
From all over the world the workers
come. Spaniards, Italians, Americans,
French, West Indians, $4,000 of them
in all, serving the same master The
stream was first started by recruiting
officers who brought few men from
many points. Then the laborers were
we'll treated. They wrote home for
their brothers and friends. An endless
chain was formed. And still they come.
There is no labor trouble. Col. Goethals
claims he has gotten together the best
working force in the world. The force
claims that it has the best big boss on
earth.
Then there is the commissary which
supplies everything that these IS, 900
men and their families eat and wear.
There is not a meal supplied on the
zone, from luxury at the Tivoli to the
three meals a day for thirty cents that
are provided for the West Indians, that
does not depend on the commissary.
1t is no small commercial undertaking
to administer such venture. Yet this
falls directly under the care of Col.
Goethals.
Then there is the real task under the
department of construction and engin-
eering that is the great central idea of
them all. The zone is divided into
three divisions, each in charge of a div
ision engineer, two army men and one
civilian. There is the great Gatun
locks and dam on the Atlantic side,
the Culebra cut in the middle section,
and the locks at Pedro Miguel and
Mirahores and the channel to the Pa
cifc. Any one Of these divisions has
monstrous work to perform. In con-

Amherst, N. H., Feb. 3.-One hun dred years ago today Horace Greeley was born in this pretty little hamlet in the New Hampshire hills, and in fitting celebration of the anniversary hundreds of literary men and women and other admirers of the famous editor have been holding memorial exercises here today. The village is crowded with strangers, but the local committee of arrangements, headed by Rev. c. s. White, had planned things so well that no discomfort has resulted. The people of Amherst are exceedingly proud of the fact that Greeley was born here and spent the first eight years of his life in the vil- lage, and are always glad to enter tain pilgrims to the place. Last spring Amherst celebrated the 150th anniversary of its founding, but to- days crowd far exceeded the one that gathered on that occasion.
