UNTIL WILSON
VIEWS It
President Will Wait Congress Ad-
iournment-GoethaIs Anxious
to be Relieved of lob.

WASHINGTON. June 1S.-Colonel
W. +. Goethals. Chief Engineer of the
Panama Canal. called at the White
House yesterday to discuss the prog
ress Of work there He told the Presi-
dent that water could be turned into
the Canal shortly after October l,
but that he would not order it done
if the President found it Impossible
to visit the Canal during Septem
Der.
President Wilson assured the Chief
Engineer that he would visit Panama
the moment Congress adjourned.
Peculiar Position.
Colonel Goethals has been the Chief
Engineer and supreme executive of
the Canal organization since the pro-
ject was put in the hands of army
engineers.
These functions are not based on
any law of Congress, but the direct
admonition of President Roosevelt
to the members of the commission
when he appointed them. He told
them there was no authority in Law
for making Colonel Goethals the head
of the force TO be employed on the
Canal, but that his power Of appoint
ment would be used to enforce his
decision not to ask Congress for fur
Their legislation and TO make Colonel
Goethals the supreme authority.
Every member Of the commission
understood and accepted his appoint
ment on that condition.
President Taft pursued the same
method as his predecessor, and Colo
mel Cocktails direction of affairs met
with no opposition until toward the
end Of the recent Presidential term.
Opposition Develops.
Reports say that the disposition 10

thals has reached a critical stage,
threatening to weaken the commits

pletion of the Canal beyond the time
set for that consummation. Conse-
auently much importance is placed on
President Wilson's tentative selection
of Richard L. Metcalfe Of Nebraska

Commission in place of Maurice II.

Charley Knsw He Was Married.
Let's see, how long have you been
married, Charley?"
Charley paused, thinking heavily.
"Ol. l don't know" he replied six
or eight months"
That's ala stray bit Of converse
ton overheard between clatters in a
place where men resort at MONDAY to
eat. Two other men, sitting near
Charley and his interested friend,
heard the answer and exchanged elo-
quent glances. Maybe they were mar
ried men.
Presently Charley and his elderly
acquaintance departed. The two re-
naming at the table eyed the hus-
band of six or eight months standing
with interest.
What do you know about that?"
began one, namely enough. He doesn' t
know how long he's been married. l
wish his wife heard him I'll bet she
can tell the months, weeks and days
offhand."
Well" said the other, Il never
heard of a man in the workhouse who
couldn't tell exactly how many days
he'd been in, and how much it would
be before he'd be out. But, then, l
suppose it's different with lifers."
But of course the latter speaker
may have been a married man, at
that.

DUTCH WOMEN TO CELEBRATE

A century ago Holland regaine6 :ts
old independence and right of self
government, and the Dutch people
propose to celebrate this event by a
series of exhibitions illustrative of the
progress that has been made during
the intervening years.
The Dutch women decided that they
required a special exhibition in order
to show how their sex has advanced
during the century, so they have
planned for display, from May to Oc-
tober.
One part of the exhibition will show
a middle class house of one hundred
years ago, and particularly the kitch-
en-, where all the cooking for .he
house was done and provisions were
kept. The domestic will not be the
only side of the life of the Datch
women of 1918 illustrated. Their OPP
portunities and achievements In art,
literature, music and sports will be
noted, together with the industries
outside the home. In those days many
women were overworked as seam
stresses and diamond workers, and
endured a treadmill existence.
The 1913 part of the exhibition will
be held in an old house, surrounded
by old trees and garden in the style
OF the period. In striking contrast to
this part of the exhibit will be the
1913 buildings. Heps will be shown
kow woman's field of work outside the
home has grown, and how new in
ventions in machinery have lessened
or eliminated much of the household
labor of earlier days.
Model houses designed by women
will prove how important factor n.y.
giene has become, and there viii be
rooms in which the work of women as
writer's, artists, teachers, trained
nurses, etc, will be given recognition,
while the suffragists will have a room
to themselves. What Holland is doing
for the women of her colonies will be
revealed in the colonial department.
The exhibition viii take place in
Amsterdam, and men and women of
distinction in many fields are expect cd

miles from Oshkosh, to small closet
in which his wife was slowly being
roasted to death, j. c. Puestow, a

Mrs. Puestow had gone to a small

prepare supper. The stove exploded

The first specimens Of the insect in

Of 1904, and since that time it has

CAREFUL PACKING OF PEARS
Care Should Be Exercised Not to
Have Fruit Hang Too Long, as
1t Dsterioriates Quality.
CRv G G. YINCENTN


While the packing of any fruit is
largely a matter of experience, there
are certain principles which apply to
all fruits, though more care must be
exercised with some varieties than
with others. The pear is very per
ishable fruit and requires the most
careful handling. The picking season
varies with the prevailing climatic
conditions each year. Whenever, on
slightly twisting the stem and turning
the pear upward, 1t will snap off, the
fruit is ready to pick. or necessity
it must be picked for shipping willis
yet in a green state. Great care should
be exercised not to have the pears
hang too long, for it deteriorates the
shipping qualities very materially,
After picking, the fruit should be
packed and shipped as soon as posi-
BILE, as they are quite perishable.
The boxes for pears must be lined
with wrapping paper and the pears
themselves also wrapped. There is an
increasing demand for fancy pears,
which means carefully selected, uni.
form fruit, we'll packed. It is under
