Y. M. c. A. Work Satisfactory

The executive board of the local
y. NJ, c. A., met in the club rooms
of that institution in this city sun
day afternoon and received the re-
ports for work done during the past
year under the supervision of Mr..
Briggs and Mr.. Mead. This work,
it is said, was highly satisfactory
and the best among the boys that
has ever been done.
The organization of the boy scouts,
providing them with athletic teams,
and athletic contests, together with
going upon scouts with them served
to endear both Mr.. Briggs and Mr..
Mead to the young men. Their con-
fidenGe was thus gained and they
were greatly benefited by their as
sociation with these two Christian
gentlemen.

INCREASE PAY Of
RURAL CARRIERS
AFFECTS THIRTY THOUSAND
MEN-THE ORDER BECOMES EFF.
FECTIvE SEPTEMBER 30.

Washington, Sept. 3.-Under auth
ority conferred by the postoffice ap-
preparation bill Postmaster General
Hitchcock Sunday increased the sala-
ries of rural letter carriers on stand
ard routes from $1,000 to $1,10O a year,
thus affecting 10000 men with proper
tionate increases to carriers on short
er routes The order will become ef'
fective September 30.
This will mean an inceased dis
bursement of $4,OOO,00O a year. 1t is
the second salary advance for rural
carriers made in the last four years.
At the close of last fiscal year on
June 60, there were 42,031 rural mail
carriers, the aggregate pay being $40
655,7IO.
The increase provides rural carriers
adequate compensation for additional
burden to be imposed by the parce's
post system effective January l.
The parcels post system on rural
mail routes can be conducted prac-
tically with no extra expense to the
government except the increased sal
arv allowance 70 carriers" said Mr.

TWO Bic SLIDES
DAMAGE CANAL
AND WILL ADD ANOTHER EXTEN'
SION TO TIME LIMIT FOR COM.
PLETION OF WORK.

Colon, panama, Sept. 3.-Twelve
hundred thousi-d cubic yards OF
earth and gravel have been spent into
Culebra cvt by two great slides. One,
the larger, -a,J,in ing 100000 yards OF
debris, is causing the canal engineers
seriou.j embarrassment and bids fair
to add another extension to the time
limit for completion OF the big ditch.
The slide partly buried a steam
shovel and endangered a NUMBER OF
Workmen. II also carried down big
observation platform. The earth set
tied to the bottom of the canal, caus-
ing the latter to bulge mp. The pre-
yious slide came six days earlier,
north of Empire, damaging diversion
or drainage canal, which is consider
ably higher than the big ditch, and
letting in a big volume of water
Mach of this had been pumped out
when the second slide came.
The slides have had another effect,
which is causing much distress among
canal workmen. The two-story Y. M.
C. A. home, erected on Culebra
heights is sliding toward the canal
and the commission has ordered its
use discontinued. Already the struc-
ture is eighteen inches nearer the
canal than when it was built and there
seems no way of stopping it. The
older building, a flat one-story struc-
ture, still is fit for use and will be
utilized as a club house.
