The force at work upon the plans
for lighting the shipways of the Pana-
ma Canal began work last April. and
have already nearly completed the sur
vey and clearing of all points to be oc-
cupied, or deprived of distractions
and have also begun the construction
of range light towers and beacons.
The scheme has for its main features
side lights Illuminated by electricity
or acetylene gas which will line the
canal on either side about mile apart
and range lights on the longer tan
gents or sections of the canal where a
straight course must be kept for some
distance. Similar t)wer beacons and
illuminated buoys, consuming acety-
Iene gas will mark the deep water
course to be followed in the great Ga
tun Lake, and through other channels.
The great artificial lake will soon
become feature of the canal zone

come. rivers and trails which have
been associated with some Of the most
interesting and earliest events of

Tribute to Amazons,

The magnificent example Of the
women of Dahomey should be made
widely known wherever their more CIV
ilized sisters are to be found strug-
Cling for their rights. Frederick Mar
tyI of the French foreign legion, who
fought In the recent Dahomey cam
palgn, tells us emphatically that "the
female of the species is more deadly
than the male" The Senegalese trail
leurs were attacked by the Amazons,
and Mr.. Martyr says that "any one in
clined to sympathize with the ANA
IONS on account of their sex and to
look upon the combat between them
and our men as unequal, may take 1t
from me that their sympathy would be
misplaced. These young women were
far and away the best men in the Da-
homeyan army, and woman to man
were quite a match for any of us.
They fought like unclaimed demons,
and II driven into corner, did not
disdain to use their teeth and nails"
1t may be an error of policy to make
these facts known, and thus to stimu-
late militancy already vigorous
enough.

USE OF CROSS IN t1ERALDRY
More Than Four Hundred Forms OF
the Device Are Recognized in
That Science.

In early pagan days the cross was
symbol of shame and ignominy, and
only those deformed or misshapen
trees that could be used for no other
purpose were formed into crosses
But since the cross has become dear
to Christians, says the ave Maria"
the most precious woods and metals
have been formed into 1t. To the third
century may be traced the custom of
making the Sign of the Cross. In
the days Of Constantine, Christians
painted crosses on the entrances of
their houses as symbol Of their
faith.
The impetus to the use of the crosa
in heraldry was given by the Crusa-
ders, who wore a red cross upon their
right shoulder as a token of the OBJ
legation they had taken upon them
selves. It's form and meanings in her
aldic designs are many. In fact, over
four hundred and seven different
forms have been recorded by students
of biography and genealogy.
In heraldry the cross is formed by
two perpendicular and two horizontal
lines crossing in the center of the
shield This form is modified in va
rious ways by additions and combina-
tions, thus expressing many meanings.
1t has been said that human intelli-
gence has never devised a system so
infinite in it's varieties and so endless
in it's application as is to be found in
the science of heraldry, in which fig
ure twenty-seven basic or fundamental
crosses.
The Greek cross has all four arms
OF equal length, while the Latin cross
has the earth end longer than the 9TH
er three arms. The Calvary or Christ
Cross rests upon three steps or de-
grees. The Patriarch cross is recog
nized by its double crossbar. The
st. Andrews cross is an X, in token
OF the form of cross on which that
saint suffered martyrdom by having
his hands and feet bound to it's four
arms. The st. Anthony cross is
shaped like a T, and has its name
from the cross that st. Anthony, alb
bot, wore upon his cloak, though the
origin of his cross seems to be Egypt
ian.
1t is matter OF interest that many
American families have the cross as
the basic emblem of their escutcheons.
Among them are at least five Of the
presidents. The Garfield shield has a
blue cross in the dexter canton, and
the family motto is, '1n the cross !
conquer" The Tyler shield had on 1t
a bar, two crescents and cross form.
The shield of the Adams family was
adorned by large cruciform device.
