WILL USE ANCIENT FORT
San Lorenzo. at Panama, 90 BE Ono
of Canal Dcfcnscs.

Fort San Lorenzo, for many years
one of the important units in the de-
fenses of the ISthmus of Panama dur
ing the days of the Spanish occupa-
ton of most of the western hcmi-
sphere. is again to serve in the ca
pacity of defending one of the most
important trade routes of the world,
the Panama canal
This time the ancient fortress will
be manned by soldiers of the United
States, who will serve modern. large
caliber guns with ranges of more
than IL miles. The new fortifica-
tions which, in a measure probably
are to replace the ancient ones, will
form one of the main defense links
of the great Gatun locks. at the
northern end of the canal.
Old Fort San Lorenzo, or rather the
ruins thereof, stands on a high bluff
at the mouth of the Rio Chagres and
overlooks the town of the same name
and the shallow harbor which on
numerous occasions sheltered the
ships Of Christopher Columbus and
the Spanish conquistadores who came
after him and developed the Isthmus
OF Panama into one OF tie greatest
trade routes in the world OF that time.
Across it was transported that vast
amount Of treasure that flowed from
the Americas into the treasury of the
Spanish kings at Madrid. The Rio
Chagres was one of the routes across
the isthmus. and for that. reason was
defended at its mouth by the import
ant and heavily -garrisoned fortress
San Lorenzo.-Washing Star.

SOCIOLOGY IN THE "ADS."
They May Furnish Most Interesting
Reading in the Future.

That delightful book, "a Summer in
Skye" by Alexander Smith, was pub
lished in 1865. In it the author tells of
reading on a windy, rainy day odd
volumes of the old Monthly Review.
"dingy literary Catacombs," dated at
the end of the eighteenth century. The
advertisement sheets had been bound
up with the magazines proper. And
lust as the tobaccolcsS man whom we
met at the entrance to Glen Sligachan
smoked the paper in when ms roll OF
pigtail had been wrapped, so when |
had finished the criticisms. ! attacked
the advertisements, and found them
much the moro amusing reading.
Might not the magazine buyer of today
follow the example of the unknown
Islesman? Depend upon 1t, to the
reader of the next century the adver-
tising sheets will be more interesting
than Tie poetry or the essays or the
stories"
This was written when the pages Of
advertisements in magazines were not
anywhere so numerous. nor were they
so fully illustrated, if they were Illus
trated at all. Was it not Kipling who
in this country threw away the pages
of literary matter" and eagerly read
the advertisements? The student of
sociology a hundred years from now,
yes, fifty years from now. will study
the advertisements in magazines as
important documents. He will throw
away the pages of puffs by publish
crs of books. but he Will study care
fully the advertisements of plumbers,
motor car makers. tailor5, akers of
hosiery and collars and of others that
Supplied wants. real or fancied. in the
life of men and women.-Boston Her

systematically Rob Mexicans Who
Sold Supplies to Gringoes.

Columbus, N. NJ, Aug. 2.-As pun
ishment for dealing with the "gringo
invaders Carranza troops in the
wake of the American expedition sys-
tematically robbed the natives of the
gold and silver they obtained by SELL
ing General Pershing's column sup
plies. Many Mexicans have brought
such stories to the American lines, it
was learned today.
The de facto government troops
created a virtual reign of terror on
the heels of the withdrawal by the
expeditionary forces. From each viii
lage one native was forced to name
every Mexican that sold supplies to
the "gringoes. Squads of Carranza
soldiers then hunted the Mexicans
down and robbed them of the Amer
lean money.
Torture was resorted to when the
native refused to divulge the hiding
place of the money

of Rich Blue Lead.

Two Million.

San Francisco, Aug 2.--William L.
Breeze and Ackland Hood, two eastern
poloists, were within arms reach of
the missing famous Blue Lead channel
when they quit working the Herkim er
claims in Sierra county in August,
1914, to join the English army. Today
Breeze is dead somewhere in France,
while Hood is fighting in the trenches,
neither of them aware that the riches
they sought were almost with their
grasp.
Gustave de Bretteville, who bonded
the claims after Breeze and Hood sur
rendered their interest, announced to-
day the discovering of the missing
channel which he says carries gold
bearing gravel worth $26 a carload
De Bretteville declares there is 5000
feet of the channel on the claims and
that it will bring him, conservatively
estimating, $2,50O,OO0.
Breeze and Hood spent thousands
of dollars in vain attempt to locate
the channel They took over the
property eight years ago.
An error of the engineer in setting
the stakes for the running of their
tunnel work lost the fortune to them-
The point where De Bretteville made
his discovery is but twelve feet lower
than the level of the former opera
