Newport News, Va, March 3d.
Customs officials continued to refuse to
discuss the mysterious status of the
German cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich.
No one without official authority was
permitted to approach the Eitel's pier.
During the night a sentinel stood guard
at the pier entrance and was relieved
by another at sunrise. There were few
signs Of activity on the Eitel, and
smoke was issuing from only one of her
tunnels.
One of the many reports current in
Marine circles to-day was that British
merchantships leaving here have been
carrying coal to the allied warships ly
ing off the capes to wait for the Prinz
Eitel. 1t was said one of the reasons
for sending the battleship Alabama
here was to enforce neutrality in all
its phases.

Hampton Roads, to aid in enforcing
neutrality, passed in the Virginia capes

Castle Built in 1897

The Castle of San Lorenzo was built
by order of Phillip Ii of Spain in 1897
and for many years was considered
practically impregnable. John Morgan
and his buccaneers, however, almost de-
stroyed the fortress and the English,
under Admiral Vernon, captured it in
1740 and blew the fort skyward. Since
then it has been a historic ruin. The
American government has long regard
ed the mouth of the Chagres river as
an important point in the coast de-
defenses of the Panama canal, especially
in view of the accessibility of the locks,
dam and spillway at Gatun through the
stream. The nearest fortilications of
any strength and Importance are now
at Toro Point, near Colon, which is
about miles east of San Lorenzo.

Aeroplane TO, a Rest Cure

| The aeroplane as rest cure is rec
commended by at least one British sol.
dier as a result of his personal expert
enee. He Joined a>iine regiment in the
early days of the war and, being an
excellent shot and a good mechanic,
was put in charge of machine gun.
He and his gun were left by accident
in an isolated trench position when his
battalion was withdrawn, and he had
a continuous spell of forty-three days
in the forward trenches, much of the
time completely cut off from his army,
before he regained his regiment. By
that time he was physical and mental
wreck, and he was sent to hospital
to recuperate. When his leave was up
he confided to the officer in charge that
his nerve was so shattered that he sim
ply couldn't bear to 60 back to the
trenches.
~ can t get the sound of bullets out
of my head he declared; 'Syou must
find something else for me to do for a
time"
He himself suggested that he be
transferred to the flying corps and, in
asmuch as he had already had some ex-
perience in this line of work, the trans
fer was approved. In few weeks he
had qualified as an aviator, and began
spending an hour or two aloft daily.
The "change of air. worked just the
relief he required and restored his
nerves to their original firmness.

Fort San Lorenzo, an ancient fort
ress which stands en- high bluff at
the entrance to the tarbor at the mouth
of the Chagres river, probably will
again play part in the defense of the
Isthmus of Panama. Canal authorities
are trying to obtain from Panama the
right to re-establish the old fortress, re-
building it and placing therein a num-
Der of modern and high-power coast de-
fense guns. The site of the ancient
fortress is important because it stands
at the entrance of deep waterway
from the Caribbean sea to the Gatun
locks, dam and spillway. 1t is de-
clared that the Chagres river is easily
navigable for small torpedo boats and
submarines. The only obstacle is a
bar at the mouth of the river; however,
this may be passed at high tide.

its simple, almost bare facades. II is colossal

upon the more decorative buildings and courts
that stretch away TO the west.
There at the western end, Nj Bernard R. May
beck has designed the Palace Of Fine Arts in a
mood which If ! may risk a seeming contradiction
in terms, is at once In harmony with Mr. Wards
and quite antithetical TO it. He, too, is monu-
mental, employing again the Roman style which
so runs through the fair, and using the heroic
scae-but the spirit of his work Is also scenic
operate. The exhibition building proper is long
and comparatively low sem-circular edihce.
Standing by itself it would be simply gallery,
wearing a handsome classical mask. But facing
It along the border of the lagoon, and repeating
its curve and its Corinthian pillars, is mag
nfcent coonnade. which in turn incloses, on the
water side, an octagonal rotunda, borne upon
arches and domed. In shor., Il is the approach TO
the Palace of Fine Arts that the spectator is ex-
pected to notice rather than the building itself.
From this point of view one is impressed by the
grandeur of the conception, calling up memories
of the mightiest temples Of the past But have
found myself thinking here also Of the little elas-
steal ruin fashioned by modern hands IN the

achieved a tour de force and has Justined 1t
through sheer personal authority. Again, like DIR.
