Cuban Suoar.

Although practically all Of the coun.
tries Of the Pan-American union cult
vate the cane. Cuba is the greatest
producer OF cane sugar. not only In the.
western hemisphere. but in the world
The total production Of the western
hemisphere for the 1918 and 1914 sea-
son amounted to 4.919,S14 tons. of
which Cuba produced 2.57s.732 tons.
or nearly SO per cent. The total cane.
sugar production Of the world was
9.773.34S tons. and deducting the 3
262.600 tons produced by India and
locally consumed. It is seen that Cuba
produces nearly 80 per cent of the
cane sugar that is available in tho
markets OF the world.

PEKlNG, May 6.-The japanese le,
cation here has notified all Japanese
70 leave the country within twelve
bpprs. Advices from all quarters fore
shadow the early outbreak of hostil
tiles. An ultimatum is expected to
day, or tonight at the latest.
..1 IN the event of its receipt, China
will appeal to England, Russia France
and America to intervene.
China is facing what the Picking
Gazette, the official publication, de-
scibes as cone Of the greatest perlls
in her modern history" with dignity
and calm.
.. Measures have been taken to prevent
any popular demonstrations against
the japanese, and only the educated
classes have been kept in touch with
the swift progress of events.
In soWe quarters there is belief that
Japan may even strike without the
form9lity Of an ultimatum, basing heI
action on China : refusal to meet hel
demands.

Century Of Portage
During the century that the waters
of the Columbia have been used to
float the boats of white men, six o,
eight-mile .porta.e has been necessary
at The Dalles, where the river breaks
through a mighty barrier of rock ana
lava. Narrowing from a smooth ex
panse of over one mile in width n
short distance above, the river enters
a gigantic. gorge, which at one point is
only 1856 feet in width, but has depth
of over 200 feet. Within distance of
eight miles, the stream drops approx
mately 100 feet. T. 80
Since the. earliest days, the rapids of
The Dalles have been known and dread.
cd by river navigators, the ultimate of
skill and daring being the yenturin
of the, down stream voyage by small
boat. E% .-n Z
