Water in Canal Oct. 10.

Los ANGELES, Aug. t9.-Informa-
ton as to the exact condition of the
construction Of the Panama canal is
contained in a telegram which has
teen received at the chamber Of com
merce from Congressman Stephens.
'There is some water in three
fOurihs the entire length Of the Pan
anna canal" the telegram reads 'There
is no water yet through Culebra cut.
A narrow pioneer channel has been dug
tr final depth almost through Cule
bra. About October 10 the wall of
earth now across CuIebra channel will
he blown out and water will flow en-
tiIely through the canal Dipper
GredgeS now under construction at
Milwaukee will be floated in and set
TO work widening the channel and re-
moving Slides
''As October i2 is the four hun
nredth anniversary of the discovery of
the Pacific ocean by Balboa it is pos
sible some motor boat may be sent
through on that day by the Panama
railway. A United States government
steamship with Colonel GOeIhals on
board will be the first ocean going
vessel to go through, some time later,
probably before Christmas"
In view of the fact that little time
remains when the canal may be seen
in IFS unfinished state, the chamber of
commerce is urging those who desire
to make the trip to the canal under its
auspices to mail their checks at once
TO the secretary.

Los ANGELES, Aug. i9-To deter

has to do with the flow of water. The
results of our investigations will be
beneficial in this way: The department
and, through the department, the gen.
eral public, will obtain better data on
the value of lined canals.
''There are two methods Of obtain
ing a greater flow of wafer. One is to
enlarge the canal: the other is to line
it with smooth material. We are en-

The engineers expect to remain in
California for six weeks, but it will

inference that our enrolment would

The loyalty and support of the
people OF Gunnison has been and is
source Of inspiration aud encour-
agement to those who are using their
best efforts to establish this school
Last year the County High School
board contributed $4,000, which
made the opening of this school
possible. This year it increased
tins amount to $1,000 and in addi-
tIon levied a tax of oue-tenth Of
mill for library purposes The
banks Of Gunnison are now carrying
the state warrants. The citizens of
Gunnison County have established
and maintain one scholarship
amounting to $50 for each high
school on the western slope. They
have also established a permanent
students loan fund" "
The report estimates that for the
coming biennial period $4,000
should be appropriated. The big
item in this estimate rs salaries Of
teachers, S32 600 A large percent
OF the balance is for equipment. i'm
proving grounds and for upbuIldine
the library. Touching upon the
needs OF the Gunnison Normal for
the next ten years, the report sug-
gests a building architectually
planned so that it need not all be
built at once" The first unit, it is
estimated, would cost $4,000 and
should provide library, assembly
room. class rooms for history,
sociology, English and mathematics.
Furniture and equipment would cost
$1,000 more, according to the re-
port. A five hundred-dollar annual
up keep expense for the campus is
suggested, and also the building of a
small greenhouse. The total esti-
mated cost of such an outlay is
placed at $4,000.
