70 HOUSE
CANAL ZONE GARRISON
Buildings Now Standing Can
Be Converted for the Use
of the Troops.

Plans are bein., made at the War De-
partment for ho9sing the military forces
which will be stationed in the Panama
Canal Zone.
Accommodations will be needed for a
force of infantry. field artillery and coast
artillery, which will make up the body
Of troops for tn, defense Of the water
way. 1t has be:n felt that large APP
would be required for the con-
Of barracks and quarters. and
War Department officials have been en-
gagged on a tentative plan which would
provide adequate shelter for about 5000
troops.
1t is intended to have the coast ar
tillery on duty in connection with the
Notifications. These troops are likely to
live in the neighborhood Of their guns.
The other troops, which will guard the
canal and be used at any place 1t be-
comes necessary to repel invasion. will
be concentrated at one station.
Conversion Of Present Buildings.
The dwelling now occupied by the en-
gineers on duty with the canal construc-
ton can be easily converted into quar-
tiers for the commissioned officers of the
canal defense force. Other buildings oc-
cupied by clerks and other employees can
be used for barracks, with little expense
for fitting them out for that purpose.
Quartermaster Gen Aleshire recently con-
ferred with Col. Goethals. chief engineer
of the canal, and 1t was tentatively ar
ranged that this use should be made OF
the existing structures.
1t is found that good residence places
exist at Culebra and Empire, where the
climate is as good as can be expected,
and where the dwellings are connected
with water and sewer systems. By these
means the War Department will be able
to reduce to a minimum the cost of hous-
ing the troops on the Canal Zone, leaving
the main expense to be in the direction of
the installation of Notifications. That
question is being considered by the board
Of army and navy officers now in Panama
to make q final survey of the grounds and
determine upon the details OF the general
scheme of defense.

CARDINAL GIBBONS Il.
HAS QUIET BIRTHDAY
Spends Anniversary at Cour-
try Home of Friend Near
Westminster.

WESTMINSTER, Md, July 24.-Cardi-
nal Gibbons yesterday celebrated his
seventy birthday in his usual
simple way at the home of his friend, T.
Herbert Shriver, near Westminster
The cardinal says birthday celebrations
always have a tinge of sadness for him,
and his usual custom is to steal away
on such occasions to the rural quiet Of
his friend Shriver's home in order to
avoid public demonstration.
The cardinal spent the day very quiet
~ at the home of Mr.. Shriver, his only
diversion being an automobile ride, ac-
companied by Mr.. Shriver's son, TO West
minister.
Advocate Of Reciprocity.
The cardinal was found in a most
amiable frame Of mind and freely dis
cussad a wide range of subjects. He
showed especial pleasure in the final
adoption by the Senate of the Canadian
reciprocity bill, and spoke of his hope to
see closer relations established between
the two countries. This. he said. was ex-
tremely desirable, on account of the fact
that for distance of 1900 miles they
We're separated by an almost imaginary
line.
The cardinals eye sparkled as he ex-
pressed his admiration for the f1rmness
and pertinacity Of President Taft in
standing by and urging the treaty.
The cardinal also referred with enthusi-
asm to the remarkable demonstration
in his honor at the recent silver jubilee
celebration Of his elevation to the car
dinalate. He was especially gratifed that
sect and denomination seemed to have
been sunk and Protestant and Others
joined the Catholic in the celebration of
the event.
Glad Taft Was There.
The presence Of President Taft was a
cause of especial qualification. The ex-
tent of the celebration, he said, came to
him as a surprise.
Incidentally. the cardinal spoke OF d.
vorce and reiterated In emphatic Ian
guage his utter adherence of the prac-
tice He deprecated strongly the bad
precedent established by those In the
higher walks Of life.
The cardinal expressed his gratitude
for his continued health and strength.

Declared Essential.

The acquisition Of Klingle Ford val
ley is more essential than any other
land purchase now contemplated In the
District of Columbia state the Commits
sioners. "Klingle Ford valley affords
the only convenient entrance to the park
system from a large portion of the Dis
trict. and future generations may rightly
condemn the present one if 1t permits the
valley to be lost to public USE The Com
missioners cannot too strongly urge the
need of immediate action in this matter"
1t is estimated that the cost of con-
demning the land in klingle Ford valley
will be about 100000. The improving of
the roads, after the property has been
acquired, will bring the total cost of the
project, 1t is anticipated, to the half
million dollar mark

First Step in Project.

The extension of Lovers lane to Mas
sachusetts avenue is the first step in
the direct roadway project from George
town to Rock Creek Park.
From Massachusetts avenue to Wood
ley road park highways recently have
been dedicated by the Massachusetts Ave-
nue. Heights Syndicate so that no con-
domination proceedings in that section
are necessary to the carrying out of the
plan.
The proposed condemnatio of Klingle
Ford valley is to begin at Woodley road
and extend to Rock Creek Park. The
acquisition Of this valley thus will COM
plete the direct highway from George
town to Rock Creek Park
The roadway beginning on Lovers
lane, along Montrose Park. will extend
to Massachusetts avenue and through
Massachusetts, Avenue Heights, thence to
Woodley road and to Klingle Ford Valley
road leading into Rock Creek and Zoo
logical parks.
The acquisition of Klingle Ford valley
is In line with the recommendations of
the Mcmillan park commission. Unless
the land is acquired at an early date.
according to communication of the
Commissioners accompanying the bill,
improvements which are being made in
that vicinity will require that it be grad
ed for building purposes and 1t will thus
be lost to the District.

-Four factors enter into the
question of efficiency, viz:
81. The amount of capital on
which dividends must be earned.
50. Cost of rawNmaterial.
50. The spirit of the labor en-
ployed.
a. Ability to keep the plant
in continuous operation to the
highest possible degree.
Take these factors in their or
der: The steel trust is enormous
ly over-capitalized-at least two
dollars of securities for every dol
lar of value behind them.
This results in part from the
greed of monopoly for vast un-
earned profits, and in part from
extravagant methods of under
writing and promotion that go
with the trust system. On this
score there can be no competition
with the honest capitalization OF
Germany and England.
"The Great Northern ore lease
is an example of the cost of raw
material under trust manage
ment. In order to get a monop-
oily of ore supply they agree to
pay IS cents per ton royalty, with
an annual accretion of 8 4-10
cents more, as against a royalty
of IS cents per ton formerly paid
between five and six times as
much under monopoly as under
competition.

There is, of course, a size too

periods enough to drag any

A Stormy February.

According to the dope given out
by Irl r. Hicks, of St. Louis, we
can look for some nasty weather
during the present month. He says
"a reactionary storm period will be
central on the End and 3rd, and
that rain, snow and sleet may be
expected. The moon being on the
celestial equator on the Bird will be
followed by sleet, freeze and BLIZZARD
cold wave will dominate most
parts of the country from the 4th to
the 7th
Another storm period is booked
for the 9Th to the 10th. Western
sections will show rising temperature
falling barometer and threatening
storms on or before the 7th, and
during the 8th, 9th and 10th, these
conditions will grow into active
storms of rain, turning to sleet and
snow as they pass from west to east
Change to fair and very cold wealth
err will follow in the wake of these
storms. Another storm period falls
on the 18th to 10th, beginning with
the full moon on the 18th, and this
storm will be followed by another
from the 18th to the 21st, with
rough and Wintery weather up to the
18th, when general rain and snow
storms will pass eastward over the
country about the 10Th, 2Gth and
2 list, accompanied by a rapidly ris-
ing barometer and wicked cold
wave. Another storm period is
scheduled for the gath, 25th and
26th. The outlook according to this
weather prognosticator is not very
good for February, but we hope the
storms will not reach this section
and that we may continue to enjoy
the fine winter weather we have had
SO far this season.

Thousands are Using the New Meth.
cd with Wonderful Results.

Cut out this prescription Madam:
you are the one that must look
after the health of the household,
and you are the one in these days
of high prices that must manage
things economically.
Someone in the family may have
hard cold this winter; it may be
in the head, perhaps in the chest.
1t matters not where; here is
some advice and a prescription that
will break up any cold in a few
hours, and without taking harmful
drugs or strong drinks into the
stomach.
First of all look after the bowels.
The tongue will show whether the
liver is right or not If the bowels
need attention, good dose of cas-
tor oil made tasteless with a little
orange juice will do the trick, al
though any reliable cathartic will
do.
Then try this economical treat
ment: into a bowl of boiling water
pour teaspoonful of HYOME1
pronounce it High-o-me) cover
both head and bowl with a towel,
and breathe deep into the lungs
the soothing, healing vapor.
Breathe this vapor for five or
ten minutes until the head feels
fine and clear, then 60 to bed and
sleep soundly until morning.
A bottle of HYOMEI costs so
cents at Van Werden & Kopp's and
druggists everywhere. A complete
outfit which includes a hard rubber
pocket inhaler with which you can
breathe it any time or place, costs
only 800. Ic is guaranteed to
cure catarrh, coughs, colds, sore
throat and Group, or money back.
