ROYAL SECRETARY ENTERTAINED
Clan Gordon Gave Rousing Reception to
r. p. Glib of Boston.

After the regular meeting of Clan
Gordon, No. IL. 0. 81 G., last evening the
doors Of their hall were thrown open 10
a large gathering of young men eligible
to become members. The one purpose
OF the affair was 90 boost the member
ship of this elan and restore il 10 its for
mer honorable. place at the head OF all
the clans in this conutry. The constitu-
tion has recently been amended so that
young men OF sixteen and over may now
become clansmen. Perhaps the most in
teresting and important feature of last
evenings gathering was the visit OF Roy
al Secretary Thomas II. =. Glib of Bos-
ton, who came here on an official visit
and to hold out the advantages of the
clan as fraternal and benefit organiza-
tion in preference TO any other. The
large hall was completely filled with
members and prospective members.
Mr.. Gibb was given warm reception
and opened his remarks by saying that
he felt il a personal honor 20 see SO many
out on such stormy night and that he
was completely at home among the men
gathered who no longer seemed strangers
to him. He spoke of the exceptional ben
etits 10 be derived from Clan Gordon,
more so than most other clans. For some
time he entertained his hearers with
"reminiscences of the great convention at
San Francisco last summer. He urged
all the young men present to enroll at
once with the men of their own blood
and march along with the largest and
best Scottish organization in this eoun
try.
Others called upon for impromptu
talks were, Mayor Gordon, long time
member of the clan here; City Clerk !
James Mackay, one of the first members, |
who told OF the early life of Clan Gordon;
James Elrick, secretary OF Clan Gordon
Tor a long term. Mr.. Elrick explained |
the benefits received by sick members. |
A program of more than passing mention
was successfully carried through. Those
,alled upon for solos were, John Wylie,
lanes Booth, Harry Clark, James Gall
ind Barry Hendry. A short intermis-
lion in the midst of the ceremonies was
,he occasion for delightful luncheon
ollowed by cigars. Chief William Hurry

AT the close of the evenings enter
ainment the company formed in a circle

'er remained with the royal secretary

end-off with old time Scotch songs, prin-

AN OFFICIAL PREDICTION
That Panama Canal Will Be Re-opened
April IS.

Washington, d. c., March l6.--An off
cial prediction that the Panama cana
viii be re-opened by April Is for the
passage Of deep draft vessels was an
nounced last night by the war depart
ment.
Conditions in Gaillard cut, scene oi
the principal earth movement, which
blocked the waterway last fall are re-
garded as justifying the forecast. Col
Harding, acting governor of the canal
zone, telegraphed the war department
yesterday as follows;
Conditions in Gaillard cut Justify pre-
dictions that canal will be available for
ships of thirty feet draft on April l5,
subject to probable temporary delays
thereafter to meet exigencies dredging
feet in completing canal to full width
and depth and in removing shoals that
may possibly develop
Reopening of the great waterway is
regarded as an engineering feat second
only to the construction of the canal.
Millions of tons of rock and earth have
been torn out of the collapsed excava-
tions. New dredges OF size and capa-
city never before employed have labored
night and day for months. Stesns show
els have driven their way into the OBJ
structions wherever there was ground
sufficiently firm to hold them.
In the meantime the construction work
at the terminals and about the locks has
proceeded without pause. When the ca
nal is reopened it will have advanced in
equipment far beyond the point il bad
reached when the slides began. Facili-
ties for quick handling of ships will be
much better than they were at that time,
and the great project closer to final com
pletion in all details.

Tex, March 16.-The American expedi'

spent an uneventful night, caInped but a
short distance across the American line
Pershing accompanied the first depart
ment as far as the border and then re-
turned and with another part of the
troops entered Mexico to flank the main
army. Despite the rigorous censorship,
it became known that the number enter
ing Mexico was about 5000.
Aeroplanes are believed to have passed
in with the expedition. The flying condi-
tions are ideal.
Cowboys from the ranges were en-
rolled as scouts and the cavalry led the
way, followed by two infantry regiments,
field artillery and wagon train. The

General Pershing has gone into Mexi-
