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-
sus telegraph and cable connection of
1000 miles. setting off gigantic
blast of dynamite which exploded the
tiamboa dixie. the last Of the great
physical barriers to water communica-
lion In the Panama Canal.
It was an extraordinary feat Of
telegraphy. especially planned for the
sccasioh. At precisely O'Clock,
President Wilson simply by closing a
telegraph key at the White House
tent 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
roast were numerous, there was no
ceremony in Washington, 1t being the
wish of Colonel Goethals that the gov
ernment 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
we're exploded simultaneously in the
Gamboa dixie, allowing the waters of
Gatun lake to trickle through into 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 a
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 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.

Foods That Bind
Little Children
Start Them of Right Nth a

Watch Their Diet.


Mothers are often unconsciOuSly very
careless about the diet Of their Children,
forcing all to eat the same foods. The
fact is that all foods do not agree alike
with different persons. Hence, avoid
what seems to cOnstipate the child or TO
give it Indigestion. and urge 1t to take
more OF what is quickly digested.
If the child shows a tendency 10 con
stipation IL should Immediately be Civ
en- a mild laxative to help the bowels.
By this is not meant q physic OF pUr-
igatiVe, for these should never be given
TO children nor anything like salts,
pills, etc. What the child requires is
simply a small dose Of the gentlest of
medicines, such as DR.. CaldWelIs Sy-
rup Pepsin, which in the opinion of
thousands Of Watchful mothers is the
ideal remedy for any child showing a
tendency to constipation So many
things can happen to a cOnstipated
child that care is necessary- Colds,

many other annoyances that children
should not have can usually be traced

Of road construction material near at
Cause Property Increase.
It is demonstrated by Mr.. EIdrege
that a county provided with good
roads receives within a very few years
an increased valuation Of acreage. more
than enough in many instances, several
times the amount to pay for the i'm
provements.
As a concrete example of the bene-
fit derived by road improvement is
cited the case of Harris county, Texas,
in which a bond issue was successfully
floated for road Improvement. In 1906
the assessed valuation of the county
was S4S, 600, goo. In 1911, after the build
ing of $50 miles OF roads. the assessed
valuation was $40, 100000 showing an
while only SASS, 900 had been expended
in road construction. The large in
crease in valuation within the five
years was attributed for the most part
to the construction of the highways,
thus opening up what had been here
tofore. unculuTated and unsettled dis
tricts.
Bond Issue Assured.
Mr.. EIdrege is advocating a bond is
sue for the state of Arizona Of $4,000
600 by which the counties of the state
may be linked together and every IA
cility for proper transportation given
their representatives in the state legis-
lature vote for the bill. At this time
Yuma, Coconino, Maricopa, Pine, Santa
Cruz, and Cochise counties will favor
the proposed bond for the state by a
large majority. Mohave county will
vote almost solidly for a million dollar
bond issue Feb. %. With these coun-
ties in favor of the issue, the proposed
bill viii carry beyond a doubt.
Dog VI. Mule.
Speaking of the roads in Holland, he
showed that in that country a dog can
haul as much freight as a mule can
in the state of Arizona Ninety-five
percent of all the roads abroad are good
roads, whereas IS percent of the roads
in the United States are bad roads.
In advocating the bond issue Mr.. FL
drege believes that Arizona can cap
italize her golden sunsets and scenic
treasures into bullion, thus paying for
the bond issue from the money LETT IN
the state by tourists alone See
America First" is a good slogan as
well as a sensible one, according to Mr.
Eldrege, but you must provide the
wealthy traveller an equal inducement
for his comfort before he will venture

uncared for country while other To-
calities offer greater comfort from
travel point of view.

If the proposed bond issue is carried,
it will result in the building of at least
