The Geography Of Panama.

$40 miles long and on the Pacific side

Our treaty with the republic OF Pan
anna ceded US strip Of territory ten
miles wide from deep water In the At
lantic to deep water In the Pacific The
area of the canal zone Is AS square
miles. While within the limits Of the
canal zone. the cities Of Panama and
Colon, at the terminals. remain under
the sovereignty Of the republic Of Pan
anna.
Some confusion Is caused by the fact
that the isthmus OF Panama runs near
~ east and west instead of north and
south. as might be imagined. at the
point where the canal traverses II.

Buffalo and Is southeast of Colon. the

ton from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

We are not building our canal at the
narrowest point on the ,isthmus. This
point Is found at the gulf of San Bias.
sixty miles east of Colon. where the
isthmus is only thirty miles wide.
whereas at Panama IL Is forty-seyen
miles wide.
The Chagres river pronounced Shag-
gress, originates In the San Bias noun
tains and drains basin OF 1870
square miles. After running parallel
with the coast line nearly midway be-
tween the oceans 1t turns sharply at

Engineers were divided on the utility
Of this natural geographical situation.
Those who favored the. lock type canal
believed that the Chagres river could
be damned up so as to form the longest
part Of the canal and thus ave vast
amount OF excavation that would be
required in a sea level type. While
not denying the saving in excavation
In lock type, the engineers who ia
vored sea level canal believed that
the fixed limitations of the lock type

With the coming of cooler weather
c. j. Warfield has opened his bowl
ing alley at Egan avenue and Fourth
street. and considerable interest has
been aroused in the sport. A meet
ing will be held at the alleys at 8
o'clock Monday evening for the pur-
pose of organizing a city bowling
league for the coming season. All
those who are interested and desire
to bowl on a team this year should
be present at that time. 1t is hoped
to have ten teams in the league and
the aso will start a week from
Monday night, October 5. Although
still early in the season several OF
the bowlers are rolling good scores,
Voorhees, being high man at present,
with a score of 231, which will prob
ably stand for some time.
The league this year will be run
OF a handicap basis, which will make
the sport more interesting and not
so much one-sided as IN the straight
away basis.

Students.

annual celebration of University
Day" OF the University of South Da-
kota was held here Wednesday and
was participated in by over $50 stu
dents and faculty members. the oc-
casion being a holiday. This affair
struck the death knell to every form
of hazing or compulsory initiation OF
any character in the university. The
freshman rules regarding the wearing
of the green cap, "fussing," cutting
across the campus. etc, were sus-
pended for the day and the utmost
good fellowship prevailed among the
members of the various classes.
Athletic events and stunts were
the order of the day. The cane rush
between the lower classes was won
comparatively easy by the first year
men, due to a great extent of their
larger number. The wrestling match
between Kahl of the sophomores and
Goddard OF the freshmen, won by the
former. was the most exciting event
of the program and their clever work
brought forth much applause from
the assemblage on the campus.

SILO C~OLLAPSES
Large Silo on Ex-Gov. Lees Ranch
Near CenterviIle Falls.

Centerville, Sept. 2.-One of the
largest cement silos in the state, If
not the largest, collapsed on the Elk
Gov. Lee farm, six miles south OF
C~enterville. Ii had just been filled
with silage. 1t fell to the north and
demolished the south end of a new
dairy barn. This was a fine dairy
barn, built after one erected on the
grounds of the agricultural college at
Ames, la.
Manager K. w. Banks of the Lee
farm was In the silo about three min
utes before IL fell and before he
reached his home the silo had fallen.
Many people gathered to look at
the wreckage on this, the largest
ranch in this section of the state.
1t is thought that the cause Of the
wreck of the silo was due to faulty
construction, probably too much sand
having been mixed with the cement.
