THE NEAR COMPLETION OF THE.
PANAMA CANAL.

Two steam shovels working at
grade from opposite ends Of the
Panama Canal met on the oath day
OF last month. This does not mean
that the excavation work is COM
pleted, but it means that the bottom
sof the canal has been reached from
ocean to ocean, and that all that
remains to be; done is to extend the
canal to the required width. In q
few months Culebra cut will be
ready for the passage Of our larg-
est battle ships from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. To Ex-President Roos-
seyelt, more than to any other man,
is credit due for the near complet-
Ion Of this great national safeguard.

THE LAME-DUCk LOBBY.
(From the New York World

ITO my mind" says Senator Bur-
ton Of Ohio, 'the most dangerous
method of influencing legislation is
that Of bombarding senators with in
spired kilograms, letters and resolu-
tons OF commercial, civic and 9th
er societies."
This Is the lobby brought down to
date. In the old days it appeared
in the first person with money, en-
tertainments, promises and ground
floor investments. Now it pretends
to act in a representative capacity.
All that it asks OF members of con-
gress is that they accept its word

WARM WEATHER
PREDICTED FOR
WEDNESDAY
Plenty More in Store, Says Fore
caster vOnHerrmann-SCoFs
at EquinoCtiaI Storms.

Atlantans awoke Tuesday morning
to find the city stilI in the grip Of
the first cold spell of the fail, the
thermometer standing at Sc. The mer-
curry rose slowly all morning, and
Government FOreCaSter vonHerrmann
predicted that warm weather will be
here again Wednesday.
The cold weather is due to high
pressure over the North Atlantic
Ocean, causing the northeast winds
to bring cool moist air from the sea.
According TO Mr.. vonHerTmann.
there Is plenty of warm weather in
store for Atlanta Cool spells like
the present one are not unusual for
this time OF year. The lowest tenn
perature for September l6 shown on
the official records, which cover the
past A years, was so degrees in 1892.
The records also show a temperature
of above 90 degrees for every day
not expected to be reached during
1918.
This cold spell should not be called
an equinOctial storm" said Mr. Won
Hermann. The theory of equinoc-
tial storms was exploded long ago.
and the custom OF calling every rain
storm around September % and equi-
noctial storm is as great a fallacy as
saying that the moon governs the
weather. or waiting till the dark OF
the moon to plant certain crops. The
records show only one especially Sc
we're storm during the past AZ years
on or around September 20.

Case Against Alleged Forger Is
Postponed as He Is Forced to
Bed BY Physician,

With three separate charges Of
forgery involving $4,000, pending
against him in the justice courts of
Atlanta, J. Wylie Smith, soldier Of
fortune, Tuesday was too i'll to stand
trial. victim Of the worst form of
tuberculosis. His critical condition
Monday caused a postponement of the
preliminary hearing until September
"a.
DR.. c. NJ. Curtis, Smiths physician
declared Tuesday that his patient was
in a dangerous condition.
Despite his precarious condition,
however, Smith, who has braved all
sorts Of dangers in Mexico while a
fugitive from Georgia, retains his old
courage. He is brave in the face of
death, and Monday steeled himself for
the ordeal which may send him to the
penitentiary. The relapse came first,
however, much to his disappointment
and, upon the orders of his physician,
he remained at his temporary home at
W. LOU SOutN FuISNlH street. JUS
tice Girardeau honored the request Of
DIR. Curtis and postponed the hearing.
Smith, according to DIR. Curtis. CON
tracted tuberculosis about six months
ago, following a severe case Of pneu-
monia which was brought on by ex-
posture in Mexican iails and elsewhere.
Thus far his marvellous will power
and determination to live, regardless
Of obstacles. have actually prolonged
his life. He still is hopeful, and has
taken his bed only upon the strict
orders OF his physician. He expressed
the hope Tuesday of being able to
