three-headed dog that watches outside
the entrance to hades. Some writer's
assert that he had so heads, but gen.
orally he is said to have three, and
three snakes are twined about his
neck. His cave was on the farther

smart Youth Had It But He Did Not

An importantlooking and haughtily
acting young man was wandering up
and down on the platform Of the rail-
road station Of q small western city.
He was intent on finding an empty
seat In the express. which was almost
due to start. vainly did he search
each car. Suddenly he assumed an
oficial air and: walking up to the
last car, he cried out:
"All change here. This car will be
left here"
The occupants of the crowded car
uttered ordinations which proved
their dissatisfaction, but hurried out
and packed themselves In other

Kerr could sit still no longer. He
pulled himself out Of his chair and
stood with his back to the fire and
directly facing Gilbert. All these
years I've acted a lie. I've made Gloria

He lapsed into silence. which he
finally broke himself with the explain
atory remark:
Gloria thinks I'm the social leader
Of Belmont; that the whole town
hangs breathless on what I say shall
be the fashion at pink teas"
Hasn't she often wanted to come

Kerr was not to be hurried. He
began to pace up and down In front

and came to Belmont unannounced-

So here was Gloria In Belmont. II

recognized that 1t was tragic. Kerr

Belmont had almost forgotten hel

Traffic Through the Canal.

Step by step the world has followed
the progress of the worlds greatest
canal from the moment when discussion
as to the relative merits of the Nlcara-
qua and Panama routes ceased and dig
ging was begun Whenever a natural
obstacle was overcome, a lock COM
pleted, a dam finished or a slide shovel
ed out, the world read the accounts
with interest When the blast was fired
which broke down or blew UP the last
barrier and allowed the sheets and
Caribbean to the Pacific, the world
studied the news of the event and the
pictures of the explosion with sense
of great satisfaction. When work
barge of the canal passed from end to
end long illustrated articles in hundreds
of newspapers and later in many maya
zines chronicled the event. Now the an
freight traffic has begun passing
through the canal. barges loaded with
miscellaneous cargo being towed from
Balboa at the Pacific end to Cristobal
at the Atlantic end. Gov. GoethalS has
said that a 10,00O-ton ship can now
pass through the canal. and soon the
world will read thai Panama railroad
ship has been sent through the water
way. Time passes and before many
months go by the passage of ships
through the canal will become such a
commonplace matter that few people
will write or read about it.

The Mediation Conference.

The first notes from the mediation
conference are hopeful and encouraging.
This was to be expected International
conferences usually start with polite
expressions of good feeling on the part of
the participants and expressions of hope
for the success of the meeting. This is
the diplomatic thing to do and diplo-
mats usually do it, So the rule is that
an international conference makes d
good beginning, no matter how it ends
Reports from Niagara Falls, Ont, tell
of this confidence felt by the mediators
in the ultimate success of the peace
program and that the impression was
gained by those who talked with the
mediators that they expected speedy
well as a satisfactory settlement of
the problem before them. Nearly
everybody hopes that this apparent con-
fdence of the mediators is not mis-
placed and that peace with honor and
credit may be preserved. The message
of welcome which the governor general
of Canada sent 10 the mediators and in
which he said, Il express E.y fervent
hope that the efforts of yourself and
your colleagues to preserve the peace
may meet with speedy and lasting
success" is the sentiment in the minds
of the American people.

Plaza Award Cases.

The citizens committee representing
the small property owners in the Capitol
Park extension area is still petitionng
Congress for relief. Here is a matter
which puts unnecessary and unjust hard
ship upon d large body of victims of Of
fetal delay. To the lay mind it would
seem that fair and easy way out of the
difficulty could be found. Proceedings
Were instituted by the United States to
acquire by condemnation certain squares
of the Capitol Park-a project needed in
the development of the capital. In legal
and orderly way condemnation proceed
iiIcs were concluded and awards made.
Some of the property condemned be-
lonScd TO the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road Company. Tho awards of the jury
Of condemnation were approved by all
government officers through whose hands
they passed until they reached the Pres-
dent for final sanction. Representation
had been made to him that the railroad
award was excessive. No such repre-
sentation was made i'll the cases of the
property of the small real estate holders.
The President directed the Supreme Court
of the District of Columbia to dismiss the
whole condemnation proceedings. saying
in his order for dismissal that 1.-THE pub
lie interest requires that said real estate
shall not be acquired by the United
States for the sum fixed in said appraisc-
ment as confirmed by the court
During the years since 1t became prob
able that the property would be con-
demned, and after the condemnation pro-
ceedings, the value of the property to its
holders was reduced and in some cases
destroyed. They could not rent their
property except on much lower terms
Tenants of dwellings and of business
property being, of course, unable to OBJ
tain assurance of permanency, moved
Interest on mortgages continued and
taxes ran along, but no money from the
government as payment for the property
was Forthcoming. Then the proceedings
were thrown in the air and the con-
all that il seems probable will be gone
over again. Meanwhile the private prop
crty owners whose awards are not dis
puted are endeavoring to have Congress
and the Department of Justice provide
for the payment of those awards, holding
up only those that are alleged to be ex-
ccsSivc. 1t seems that it ought to be pos
sbIc to give relief 10 those persons whose
property was long ago condemned and
which has not been paid for.

Plea to the Press.

The cable brings report from Toxic
that the Japanese premier in address
ing a gathering of Japanese and for
eign journalists made plea to the
press of the world to work for the re-
moval of the misunderstanding and
suspicious between the nations, de-
claring that these misunderstanding
and suspicious were dangerous obstruc-
tons to the worlds peace. 1t would
seem that many war scares and q good
deal of national irritation which might
lead to acts of war either originate in
newspapers of a certain class, and of
class that is by no means confined to
the United States. or at least are given
greater prominence by such newspapers
than the facts warrant. The non-sen-
sational newspapers of this and other
countries attempt to put before their
