Freight will be charged $1.2O ton,
passengers are free.
American coast-wise ships may pass

miles nearer Australia.

Washington, Oct. 1.-THE momen-
tary touch of key by the President
of the United States Friday sent a
flash of electricity through a continu-
GUS telegraph and cable connection Of
1000 miles, setting off a gigantic
blast of dynamite which exploded the
Gamboa dixie, the last of the great
physical barriers to water communica-
tion in the Panama Canal.
1t was an extraordinary feat of
telegraphy, especially planned for the
occasion At precisely O'Clock,
President Wilson simply by closing a
telegraph key at the White House
sent the current over land and under
sea, and just a few seconds later
came the message informing him that
the explosion had been successful.
While celebrations on the Pacific
coast were numerous. there was no
ceremony in Washington, it being the
wish of Colonel Goethals that the gov
srnment await the actual opening of
the canal. Besides the wreckage of
Gamboa dixie there are two earth
slides to be cleared away before
boats can pass from ocean to ocean.
Roar Like Distant Thunder.
Panama, Oct. 1O.-With deep roar
and a rumble resembling heavy artil-
lery firing at a distance, thousands OF
pounds of dynamite in 400 charges
were exploded simultaneously in the
Gamboa dixie, allowing the waters of
Gatun lake to trickle through intAC Gu
Zebra cut This practically clears the
great waterway.
- The explosion was set off by an
electric spark sent by President Will
son at the White House 1000 miles
away.
After the smoke and spray of the
heavy charge had cleared away, the
steam dredges were Immediately put
to work dredging out the channel.
When this work is completed and the
water in Gatun lake has risen to
sufficient height to flood Culebra cut
to the forty-five foot level, the Pana-
ma Canal will be ready for navigation.
A few days ago the first water from
Gatun lake was let into Culebra cut
through several pipes, this water act
ing as a cushion for the explosion.
The charges of dynamite were dis
tributed in such a manner as to
merely loosen the material composing
the dixie. allowing the water to run
through and cut its own channel.
While the waters of Gatun lake now
flow north into the Atlantic and
south into the Pacific, much work yet
remains to be done before heavy
draught vessels can be sent from one
ocean TO the other.

A Wonderful Tonic
That Aids Digestion

Thousands are unable to digest GER
tain kinds Of food. In most cases it is
rot the fault of the food. nor the stom-
ach. 1t is probable that the stomach
has been abused Many resort to pre-
digested foods and various kinds Of
medicines to get relief from dyspepsia.
indigestion and heartburn. but without
permanent benefit.
If your stomach was in perfect con-
diton, you would not need medicine to
digest the foods you eat. Jayne's Tonic
Vermifuge is a stomach regulator. 1t
gets the stomach in such a condition
that It will digest food without other
assistance. 1t overcomes the acidity
and stimulates the coating of the
stomach and intestines SO that they
will properly obsorb and assinlilate the
nutriment from the food eaten. Suf-
ferers from dyspepsia and indigestion
will find permanent relief in short
time after beginning the use of the
tonic. For children, the addition of a
little sugar Will make IL most pal
atable.
Many forms Of supposed indigestion
are the result Of intestinal parasites,
for which Jayne's Tonic Vermifuge is
unsurpassed. Insist upon Jayne's; ac-
cept no other. Millions have praised it
for more than eighty years. Sold by
druggists everywhere. DR.. D. Jayne &
