Canal May Be Ready For
Shipping By December |

Washington, Aug. --latest re-
ports from the Canal Zone announce
that as a result of prospective sub
stitution of dredges for steam shovels
in the excavation of the famous Guile
bra cut the canal may be ready for
shipping by next December.
Even earlier than that light draft
vessels are likely to be passed through
the waterway, for as the greater part
of the canal prism already has been cut
to its final depth, small vessels prob
ably can navigate it safely within a
few days after Oct. 10 next, when the
Gamboa dixie is to be blown up, thus
admitting to the Culebra level the
great store of water in Gatum Lake.
The thirty-four steam shovels now in
the cut handle only 100000 cubic
yards of earth and rock per month,

JAP SOCIETY
SNAKE CRAZY
Most Popular Fad to Have Pet Rep
tiIes-They Are Also Good
To Eat.

Tokyo, Aug. 11.-To make pets of
snakes is the latest hobby of Japanese
society. Fashionable women are cul-
tivating a fancy for small and live
serpents. They have about them the
harmless spotted keel-backs and
striped snakes, which are easily
tanned.
The man who has done more than
anybody else to establish this hobby is
Kinjiro Nakamura who has been en-
gagged in the snake business for more
than twenty years, and who has
wonderful assortment of reptiles. The
most productive districts for snakes in
Japan are certain mountain sections
near Tokyo and Nikko. Here they are
caught in large numbers. Japanese
snake catchers drink sake before start
ing out to hunt large serpents, so that
they will not be stupefed by the
'poionous breath" of the reptile.
A real combat occurred recently be-
tween three men and serpent 20 feet
long. The snake poised its head about
six feet above ground, knocked two
men down with its tail, rendered an
other unconscious by its poisonous
| breath" and then escaped.
| But Mr.. Nakamura has found uses
for snakes. He says they are popular
as tonics for the digestive organs, and
that some are used successfully as a
remedy for pulmonary consumption.
There is the food question, too. Naka-
mura says that the Japanese viper is
splendid as a stimulant, either in
powered form or eaten with Japanese
soy. In the districts around Nikko
rice with snake fricassee is considered
a most royal dish. The viper is also
good as a cure for stomach trouble, if
taken soaked in Japasese sake

This output will be greatly reduced
as the depth of the cut increases and
the available room for shoveling is re-
ducea
Colonel Goethals, however, has as
sembled fifteen dredges with month
ly capacity of 100000 cubic yards,
and these will be floated in the cut as
soon as the dixie is destroyed.
Meanwhile, not content with digging
away at the base of the cliffs, the en-
gineers in their haste to open up the
waterway have begun to tear away the
top of the hills with great jets of wa
ter under high pressure, sluicing the
earth into the bed of the canal, whence
it is being swept up by pneumatic
dredges and pumps and discharged
into ravines and valleys so far away
that it can never wash back.

Chicago's barber schools have caused
Hugo Krause, superintendent of the

When barber schools first made their
appearance in this city they had only
male students. Since that time, how
ever, so-called lady BARRIERS" have
opened up their tonsorial establish
ments and thereby caused a demand
for female help. The result, Mr..
Krause says, has been that in many
barber schools there are classes for
young girls,

schools will take in any girl, no matter
what her age may be-" said Mr.. Krause,
