Charles J, Vopicka, Appointed by
President to Post, Finds Amer

CHICAGO, Sept. 2O.-Destiny has
played a pretty prank for Charles j.
Vopicka, OF this city, to be United
States Minister to the Balkan States.
Mr. Vopicka was born in Bohemia III
1857. To him. as to many young men
Of that time. the United States seem
ed the land OF promise. Stories Of
streets lined with gold" were heard
abroad, 80 young Vopicka, with d
small store OF experience to enable
him to battle with the world, and I'M
hampered by funds, sailed away from
the land of his birth.
Now he returns, If his appointment
Is confirmed. and 1t is believed II will
be, honored by his adopted country as
its diplomatic envoy.
His appointment comes at the end
Of bitter fight waged upon him by
anti-liquor interests
Mr. NopiCka, after a brief business
career here, had gained a smile from
Fortune. The dream of his youth had
come true-he had found that this
was indeed the land OF promise. He
had become interested in several
breweries and because OF this his ap-
pointment was contested.
But Mr.. VopiCka was in the fight to
stay. SO he became candidate for
the post Of Minister to Seryia. Rou-
mania and Bulgaria. Immediately the
fight upon him began. 1t was carried
TO President Wilson. Mr.. VopiCka was
sent for and hurried to Washington.
President Wilson gave him two
hours out Of a busy day and Mr.. Vo-
picl5s related the story of his young
dream and his present ambition. He
desired to repay the United States by
service. II is believed that the senti-
nent pleased the President

to reduce the slope OF the sides of
the cut to one foot of rise to every
ten feet of horizontal distance, or
less than half the slope which the
eminent engineers first estimated.
The slides were an entirely new,
unsupported and vexatious feature of
the Culebra Cut, for the French never
dug deep enough in the score of years
they gave to the job to cause any
sliding of the sides. The Culebra Cut
was the only section Of their pro-
posed canal on which the French did
any work after 1889, when the first
failure occurred. In 1904, when the
United States took over the canal
and the French equipment, the Guile
bra Cut looked as If the French had
done nothing.
Even in the places where they had
dug the deepest the channel was so
narrow and the vegetation so thick
that there We're scarcely any visible
traces of what they had done. The
maximum excavation by the French
was $4,000 cubic yards a month.
