PANAMA CANAL DOCKS.

The announcement just made concern
Ing the terminal docks at Colon com
mends itself 10 approval, as indicating
a prudent and farseeing policy worthy
Of the great work with which it is as
ISOLATED. We are told that five substan-
tial docks, of concrete, will be con-
structed, each capable Of accommodating
at once two vessels Of the largest size
now in eXistence-indeed, somewhat
larger than any now afloat-or twice that
number OF vessels Of those which now
visit that port, which is likely 10 be
the average size OF vessels going there
for many years TO come. Docks which
can give berths to ten Mauretanias at
once. or to twenty first class coasters,
will be worthy of the canal, and they
will be needed.
The canal is commonly thought or as
nothing but a waterway through which
ships are 20 pass without breaking cargo,
and that will be its chief characteristic
and function. Yet it will he something
else. and that other something Will be
OF sufficient importance for careful con-
sideration and elaborate preparations.
The canal will be a commercial centre.
or each Of its terminals will be, and
there will be much transshipment Not
every ship that goes thither will be
bound through for long voyage on the
other side. Ships will 60 from New York,
let us say. with cargoes bound partly for
California, partly for Peru and Chill,
and partly for Hawaii, Japan and China.
They must therefore halt at Colon and
distribute their cargoes to other vessels
going TO those various points.
This business of transfer and distribu-
ton must be done at Colon rather than

PRESTO, THE THREE PLATOONS!

The three-platOOn system OF police
duty is at last established il the only
way in which it should be established
that is. by the city authorities. The
chief objection, so far as the public is
concerned, has always been to its estab-
lishment from Albany. Mr.. Waldo says
that under the arrangement which he
las worked out the city will obtain more
service from the police force, be better
protected at night and have larger
reserve on hand in the day time. As he
states it, the division of the force into
three details is so simple and so adj
yantageous that there is wonder at all
the years Of quaTelling over it. The
policeman has a little less time off and
has that time as regularly and consec-
utively as possible.
The policeman's lot is now a happy
one. The new Gaynor policy Of con-
ciliating the force has been effectively
initiated by the new Commissioner. The
wave of crime will now subside and this
most decent Of all cities in the world
will be if possible decenter than ever
before

THE CORONATION DATE.

1t would have been impossible to Sc
lect a more appropriate date for the
coronation Of King George than one in
the month Of June, or perhaps than the
very day of the month which has been
chosen. It was in June that the King
was born. and also the Prince Of Wales.
II was in June that Edward VII first
Intended and prepared to be crowned,
and though that event had 10 be post
poned until August, the omen is not lnau-
spicious. since he recovered fully from
the grave illness which made the post
ponement necessary.
If we go back to the Victorian reign
we find more interesting precedents for
the choice of June and OF the day
in June which has been chosen. IT was
on June 90 that Victoria succeeded to
the throne and on June 81 that she
was formally proclaimed Queen. It was
on June % q year later. that she was
crowned. And finally, it was on June
% the very date selected for her grand
sons browning, that her unrivalled Dla-
mond Jubilee reached the impressive
climax Of a state progress through Lon
don.
If was in June that the battles or
Naseby, Dettingen and Waterloo were
fought. It was in June that Plassey
was fought. and in June 4 hundred
years later came Cawnpore. Another
June battle which profoundly affected
the subsequent history Of the British
Empire was that Of Bunker Hill. Per
haps. in view of the now pending Par
lament bill, 1t is suggestive to recall
the fact that the first reform bill also
was a June measure. These are only a
few Of the memorable June dates in the
annals Of the British Empire.

Making an Aquarium
om the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
 When a woman comes to me to ask how to make an aquarium I ad- wise her to use about three times as much water and a third less fish than she has in mind," said one of the men in charge of the experimental labora- tory on the roof of the Aquarium a, Battery park. As a rule, people who make aquariums think more of the appearance than of the life of the fish. As a consequence in a few months there are no fish.
 "Fish cannot live if they are over crowded. l never recommend globes They are pretty. much prettier, I sup pose, to people who do not know about fish than the straight-sided jars but they have not enough air surface, Plenty of air surface Is essential if you want to keep fish alive.
 After getting sufficient air surface put layer of sand or gravel in the bottom I believe down here we use the gravel almost exclusively, because we can get 1t easier. The next point and perhaps 1t is as important as any other, is getting the right proportion of plant and animal matter. Down here we figure on about eight gallons of water to four small fish, with enough plants to give out the oxygen the fish will use up. It Is much better to have more water and plants than the IlSh require than too little.
 .'Where there is enough plant mat ter to keep the water fresh and you are careful to keep out all decaying matter there is no reason why your fish should not live years instead of months. Light is also an essential, but not the direct rays of the sun. If there is not enough light the plants will not supply the oxygen.
 "The fresh water fontinalis, sagit- taria and duckweed are all good. Duck weeds is used as floating plant on the surface. For salt water fish there are the various kinds of seaweed
 "As for the variety of fish to be used in the aquarium, that depends on taste as much as anything else. The goldfish is bright in color and cheap in price, but it is very stupid. The Chinese paradise fish are much to be preferred from my point of view. They are cutter, brighter and much more democratic.

Facts About Dust

 Dust would not be possible were it not for the fact that matter is almost in flnitely divisible. It has been estimated that an average puff of smoke from 2 cigarette contains about four thousand millions of particles of dust.
 A single grain of indigo will give color to ton of water; of course, says Popu- lar Mechanics, every drop of this water must contain an immense number of ultra microscopic particles of indigo.
 A few grains of fluorescein, substance derived from coal tar, will produce a distinct fiuorescence, shining with yell Jewish green light when strongly illumi- mated, in a hundred tons of water. To produce this result the fluorescein must be divided into countless billions of par ticles.

Facts about Indigestion and lts Re
lief That Should Interest You.

Although Indigestion and Dyspepsia
are SO prevalent, most people do not
thoroughly understand their cause
and cure. There is no reason why
most people should not eat anything
they desire-if they will only chew
it carefully and thoroughly. Many
actually starve themselves into sick
ness through fear of eating good
looking, good-smelling and good
tasting food, because it does not
agree with them.
The best thing to do is to fit your.
self to digest any good food.
We believe we can relieve Dyspep'
STA. We are so confident of this fact
that we guarantee and promise to
supply the medicine free of all cost
to every one who will use it, who is
not perfectly satisfied with the re

any obligation whatever. Surely
