"fOOL PROOF" SHIP
 FIRST IN CANAL
EVERY PRECAuTlON WILL BE TAKEN TO MAKE THE FIRST
 TRIP A SUCCESS.
Locks and Ship Will Be Brilliantly Lighted to Prevent Accident or Possible Mishap.

Panama, Feb. 21.-When the Pana- ma canal is completed and the first ship is piloted through from Cristobal to Balboa or the other way. it will be as near "foo-proof' as it is possible to make it. In every possible way has the safee navigation of the great waterway been provided for by the construction of almost countleess aids to navigation.
 The first thing the pilot of an in- coming vessel sees ahead of him as he reaches the entrance of the canal is a huge light tower which, in con junction with another, points the way toward the first set of locks at he proceeds he finds innumerable lighted and unlighted bouys and bea- cons that indicate the limits of the channel.
 The locks themselves will be as brilliantly lighted as the Great White Way" itself and the passage of large ship, herself brilliantly lighted from stem to stern with electricity, is expected to become one of the most spectacular features of an interocean voyage. Then comes the passage through the canal with it's numerous range light towers on either bank, it's beacons and buoys, all of theem show ing either a,white, red or green light.
 There are along the canaI 20 acyte- lene lighted range towers, 12 electric lighted ones, 45 electric lighted bea- cons. acytelene lighted beacons and about 57 acytelene lighted buoys The range lights mark line 125 feet on either side of the middle of the chan nel forming a lane 250 feet wide. Floating on the water along the side lines of the channel are the acytelene buoys, and on the shore marking the various tangents of the channel are the lighted beacons.
 The approach to Colon harbor on the Atlantic side, is lighted by the main light on Toro Point, which is visible IS miles or more on a clear night Then there are the beacons on the seaward ends of the Emile breakwater that protects the harbor from the high seas that usually run in the Atlantic.
 On the Pacific end of the canal there are numerous buoys and bea- cons besides the range lights that in dicate the canal channel By day the channel is not only marked by can buoys but also about 60 spar-buoys an dthe many concrete tripodes, painted brilliant white By day the range light towers are easily seen, due to the brilliant white they are painted.
 Nor is this all Capt Hugh Rod man, U. S. N, superintendent of op- eration, has just completed establish ing the locations for a number of sig nal towers along the canal route. They are to be used in signaling from station to station the coming and going of steamers and to arrange meeting places. The signalmen will practically functionate on the lines of the railway train dispatcher
 Canal workers are anxiously wait ing to hear definitely from Washing ton as to whether they will have to pay an income tax. There is no one

FRESH HOLSTERS AT THE EM. FIRE.

BODY OF BABY IS
FOUND IN RIVER
Infant was Wrapped in Newspaper
and May Have Been Thrown
OF Bridge.

The body OF an infant was found
floating in the river at the foot of
Johnson street last night by Arthur
Rudd, 223 South First street, and
Clarence Alb -rts, 61S Fulton street.
The body of the infant was wrapped
in a newspaper. 1t was evidently of
premature birth.
The boys saw the newspaper COM
ing into shore and made their Cruz
some find. The officials are inclined
to the belief that the baby was
thrown off one of the toats or some
one dropped the bundle off the bridge,
AND that the inshore current carried it.
An inquest was held this afternoon
by Coroner Korschgan.

DE WITT WASHING
MACHINE IS SIMPLE
Local Mans Invention Seems to Have
Others Distanced for Work
and Results.

Imagine q pick axe, with two In
verted dippns at each end of the
pick, and you have something Of the
idea OF John DeWitt's new washing
machine, which is being tried out
here now. The machine Is SO simple
that it almost takes ones breath
away to think OF its doing the work
which actual tests show that 1t is
doing.
The machines which Mr.. Dewitt is
having used as demonstrating ma
chimes consist Of two inverted dtppers
fastened together by an iron rod and
a handle is attached to the rod in the
center. On the under part OF the cups
is q perforated sheet, the object OF
which is to keep the clothes from get
ting into the cups.
The operation Of the machine IS
simple. The washerwoman takes hold
of the handle OF the machine and by
a rocking motion completes the wash
ing operation. One woman who tried
out the Dewitt machine told the in
v sntor that she washed Ave sheets in
the time 1t usually took to do two, and
that they were much cleaner.
The inverted dippers create suction
and the suds and hot water are
forced about the tub and through thu
dirty clothes. There is no rubbing.
and no complicated machinery.
