JAP PAPER AFTER
COUNTRYMEN FOR
"ROBBING" VISITORS

SACRAMENTO, April 26. - So
fragrant has become the practice of
Japanese fishermen of the Coronado
Islands who charge tourists SO for
bait worth not more than 10 cents,
that eevn the japanese newspapers
are condemning it.
In an article published in the
"Nichi-Bei," a Japanese newspaper of
San Francisco, and translated for
the California Oriental Exclusion
League, these Nipponese fishermen
are taken to task by the paper in
commenting on letter from the Jap
anese Society of New York TO the
Japanese Society of San Francisco.
The "Nichi-Bei" had the following
comment to make:
"Some dozen Japanese fishing
boats were there and the visitors
asked them for bait, worth not more
than 10 cents, but the fishermen
charged them 81 and SO, and other
wise behaved rudely."
The papers urged the japanese
fishermen not to so treat tourists whC
did not want to fish but merely
wanted to pass the time. 1t is pointed
ou that such treatment does not
improve relations between japanese
and Americans, and the fishermen are
warned in the future to use mor'
tact, and to be more accommodating.
| In an article which appeared il
another japanese paper, the "Osak
! Mainichi Shimbun," of Japan, tn
Nipponese government is severel
criticized for abolishing the pictur
bride practice. The editorial says.

s. D. & A. STATION
BLOWS OVER GORGE

The San Diego & Arizona agent at
Carriso Gorge sent a distress call last
Saturday. saying he was in a bad fix.
Further particulars brought out the
fact that in the high wind of the day
before, his station building which is
perched upon precipice just above
the gorge, had blown over. Loosed
from its foundation, it was prpelled
over the edge of the gorge and went
tumbling down over the rocks.
The carpenter crew that has been
engaged at Seeley in building the new
railroad section houses, left their work
there and went to help him out of his
fix. They will return to Seeley as
soon as the Carisso Gorge station is
temporarily provided.

Initiation Saturday kUening.

More than 200 Odd Fellows left for
home last evening on a special train
after spending the day in Imperial
Valley. The special arrived Saturday
evening late, because of engine trouble,
and the party at once made short
work of the banquet which had been
prepared for them. Later the secret
work of the order was conferred on a
class of candidates.
Yesterday all Odd Fellows were
given a trip over the valley.
During the comforting of the initia-
tory decree the Rebekahs were enter
tanned by an excellent program Of To-

The entire affair was a big success
and was most creditably carried out

THE AMERICAN NAVY
IN GREECE

The Corinth Canal connects the
Cults of Corinth and the Saronic
Gulf. Though less than ofur miles
in length, it results in saving of
over 130 miles in the journey from
the Adriatic to Constantinople. 1t is
reported that Periander in 600 B. C.
first proposed such a canal, but his
engineers affirmed that one gulf was
higher than the other, and the priests
assured him that the anger of the two
oceans at being mingled would result
in the downfall of Corinth. AS sub
stitute the Diolkos was built, flat
stone road over which small boats
were carried on wooden rollers. The
cargo was unloaded and sent across in
cars.
Julius Caesar and Caligula also con-
sdered the construction of water
way but it was not until the time of
Nero that the first actual attempt was
made. The difficulties proved far
greater than were expected, and at
Nero's death the work was abandoned.
In 1881 a French engineering COM
pany was awarded contract to COM
plete the work but it was not finished
until 1893 when Queen Olga of Greece
formally opened the canal by cutting
ribbon with a golden pair of scissors.
The canal is 70 feet wide with a
minimum depth of 26 feet. At one
point the cut is 2S7 feet deep, almost
as deep as the Culebra Cut in Panama.
1t is without locks, being sea level
canal throughout.
Owing to the difference in heights
of the tides the opposite sides of the
Corinthian peninsula, the current
through the canal is usually very
swift. For this reason it is rather
dangerous for light craft, and there
fore seldom used by any except mar
row ships with powerful engines.
This photograph shows the U. S. S
Barney going through cut. While
the ship was on duty in these waters
the men of the Barney had an oppor-
tunity to visit many of the old Greek
, ruins, including the Acropols, as
: shown in the smaller picture.
After leaving Greece. the Barney
continued her trip toward home via
| Rome, Italy, Nice, France, Gibraltar
r and the Azores.
