GREAT GATUN LH IS CANAL WONDER Mighty Accomplishment Most Impressive of All Work in Panama Zone. CHAGRES UNDER CONTROL .Machine for L'nloadln. IMrt Trains Doea Work of 100 Men With Tjvo Railroad No .Uittmrnt for Federal Ownership. BY nEORUE PALMER PUTNAM. PANAMA. tec. 7. (Special Corre spondence) It la doubtful If anyw-hr In th world ther Is mora that Is im pressive, from the point of view of hu man accompllhmnt than Is to be found at Oatun, on th Panama Canal son. Her. In th midst of tropical Junarl. In a country a few year ago world-notorious for its deadly un healthlness. the American engineers are puahina to completion the greatest lock system ever attempted and th blKst dam tn th world. Into a comparatively small area at Gatun are crowded example from all the chaptrs of the canal construction. Fvry problm afforded by th vsrlous kinds of work necessary to build th canal there has been met and over come. At Gatun there has been excavating- for th locks, concrete work, hydraulic and dry excavating- and fill ins; for the srreat dam, the whole prob lem of raring for th Chaarrea River, new applications of electrical engineer ing transportation difficulties upon a vast scale, and. In fact, examples of every kind of problem with which th canal builders have been confronted. Oaaa I Marvelous Werh. Gatun Is a trifle more than six" miles from the Caribbean entrance to th ca nal. At that point th Oatun dam Is belna thromn across between two ranges of hills, to Impound th waters of th Chaa-res River, which "It will back up for l miles tnhe locks at Pedro Miguel, on th Pacific side of the divide. In this II mile occurs Culebra cut. Th dam Itself I a marvel, a verit able colossus. It Is 7500 feet 1onT. 2100 feet thick at the base, :S feet through at thet water surface and 100 feet We at the top, which Is IIS feet above sea level. It crosses two valleys separ ated by a hill, rising to within flv feet of It top. through which hill the spill way Is being constructed. The maxi mum head of water will be $5 ft, this entailing th creation of a lake which will be the largest artificial reservoir ever made. Gatun Lake will have an area of 1(4 souar miles, this almost limitless wa ter storehouse providing more than enough water, under the most adverse circumstances, to care for all th lock eres that poeslblv could bo made. Ac cording to the careful statistics pre psred by Colonel Goethals. after mak ing due allowance for power consump tion, evaporation, eeepag and leakage In th dryest dry season. It would be possible to pea 41 veasels a day through th canal, and tn th average dry season complste passages through th canal ar possible, or a greater number than the ! hours of the iay would permit, allowing veasels to follow each other at Intervals of on hour. PitiliM Is Caatlaaaaa. In the offlc of the division engineer at Gatun you will see hanging on th wall hug charts showing th status of th work from day to dsy. They are the fprogress chsrts" which tell the story of th work, a glance at which shows th exact status of th division to which they blona. At Ualun. in a llttl offlc besld th dam. th chart showed that about 1. ". cubic jsrds of the total of tl.143.tfOa of ma terial have been filled In. Thla amount of -fill" was nearly iua!lv divided a week - between -dry" and wet" material, the former meaning rock brought from Culebra Cut. :i miles distant, the latter being mud pumped by dredges Into the core of the dam from above and below It. first strong -roes." made of rock from Culebra. were filled In along th uppr and lower edges of the dam, and then j between these th mud was pumped In, the toes always being kept some la feet above the level of the mud. And as the toes were mad higher and higher they have been brought closer together from a bottom width of 2100 feet to a present average width of pr haps 4:00 fet. near the final top of the dam. This means that the sides of the dam slope outwards at a slight angle for more than a quarter of a mile on both sides, giving It more the appear ance of a hill than an artificial dam. This Impression Is aided, of course, by the rapidity w-ltB which vegetation has taken hold on the hillside walls, quickly covering them with - greenery wherever there was a chance and mak ing the completed look for all the world as If It had been there since the be ginning of things. Tralna 1 atoaded by Machinery. There Is little that Is picturesque In the construction work at the dam. Tracks run along the tops of th "toes," between which Is the sl'my aa of mud. Along these tracks oome occasional trains of dirt cars, whose contents of rock and dirt are dumped Inward or outward along the toes, as demands. In some places on the big fills Lidger wood unloaders are used. These are nothing more than plows, made of a big sheet of steei o.- Iron, which, set at an angle to the avis of the train, are pulled from the end of the train to the engine by means of a cable, en route sliding along the flatcars and plowing from them the dirt and rock. Hy this method two men and a steam driven spool, upon which th cable is wound, do the work of 100 men In min utes Instead of hours. As has been said, the material for the core or middle portion of the dam Is supplied hydraullcally. At pres ent, four dredges are at work, two above and two below th dam. They pump the mud through 20-Inch pipes, which sometimes extend for a mile from th dredge to the point wher they belch their muddy contents be tween th sustaining rock walls of the toes. On dredge, you ar told, will pump 150.000 yards of solid material In a month forcing It for a mile with out relay through th pipes. As It Is delivered, only 20 per cent of this mud-and-water mixture is solid, th SO per cent of water being drained off or pumped out from the core in closure. With th Gatun Dam It Is simply a matter of sttaklng at It. No new problems will be presented. The dam has been criticised at times, some calling It ridiculously large, others equally vehemently declaring that It is far to fragile to hold the vast amount of water behind It. However, every possible contingency has been tried out by the eo'neers. tn careful tests with miniature models, and every possibility of slide or seepage or other conceivable unwelcome happening has been taken Into (account and provided agalnsu But the masstveness of the dam Is In Itself enough to convince any on: technical lay man that It Is fitted to withstand any and every test which can b made upon It. 'e4 Prwved y Mathssalsu The spillway, by which th flow of th flood and normal waters of the lake will be regulated. Is simply a matter of mathematical creation. There Is no experimentation there, for the engineers were working with concrete exclusively, and concrete set on and between rock presents no unknown quantities. ' The spillway dam Is built uu an arc, with 14 openings, and will permit of a djscharge of 140.000 cubic feet of water a second. And when It Is considered thst th wildest flood of the wild Chagres will be spread out over the surface o a lake of 14 square miles before It affects the water level at the dam. It Is e.isy to under stand what a comparatively simple matter It will be to regulate th lake's level and the flood waters with such sn equipment as Is provided by this gigantic spillway. Already (.iatun Ijik la slowly back ing up behind th dam. and spread ing out over the low lands and up be tween tn"s green. Jungle-clad hills.

Th Panama Railroad, by th way. has often been held up as an example of governmentally owned and operated railway, especially by those Interested In seeing Federal and state control x tmdd to common carriers. They sre likely to point to th xtremely profit able operation of the Isthmian road as Indicative of governmental efficiency. As a matter of fact, no road ex clusively controlling the transcon tinental route at Pansma could help making money.

EAKIN ADDS OPINION. Judge la Ooncurrlns; Holds That Burnett's Argument in I Grande Ctse Give Riparian Privilege to ApproprlatoOnly. SALEM. Or., Dec. 17. (Spscial.) In a specially concurring opinion by Chief JusUce Eakin today In the case of Cav Inass against tha La Grande Irrigation Company, tha Chlsf Justice put nthr angle on the opinion of Judge Burnett handed down yesterday, declaring in his specially concurring opinion mat the eflect of one statement In the opin ion of Justice Burnett Is to do away with riparian Ights as heretofore rso ognlxed In this state. In his opinion the Chief Justice says: I concur in the result of this de cision, but 1 cannot give my consent to tha following statement: Primarily, any use of the water of a natural stream for a beneficial purpose Is free to him who has an opportunity to take It withont Infringing upon the property rights of another. . . . Concerning the mere diversion and use of water there Is no difference between a non rlparlan appropriator and a riparian user provided ths former haa a lawrui right of access for that purpose to the stream from which the diversion I made. The essential condition of ap propriation In the first place on public lands was the consent of acquiescence of the then riparian owner, the General Government. The reason of the rule is not changed by the fact that the ripar ian owner is a private person, provided the appropriator has his consent, or what is equivalent, that ths appropri ator and the riparian owner are one and the same person. The deduction, then, la that if anyone can lawfully gsin access for that purpose to a non-navigahle- stream and water Is there not subject to use by another such a 6ne may appropriate it for his own use. Hlauuiaa Rlakta Go. The effect of that statement Is to abolish or do away with riparian rights as heretofore recognised In this state. By this opinion the Chief Justice says absolutely that his Interpretation of the opinion as written by Justice Burnett and concurred in by the other three members of the court is to abolish ri parian rights. Should the esse go to a rehearing and the stand taken be reiterated, it prom ises to have a vastly Important bearing especially on the question of adjudicat' ing water rights. The Board of Control believea It will be a decided factor In future water questions coming befora It. Attorneys throughout the state, who have been connected with litigation and adjudica tion of water rights have almost uni versally used the doctrine of riparian rights as a defense. Rehrarlag May F.oso. Under this opinion, according to the Interpretation of Chief Justice Eakin. only the appropriator has a legal right to the use of water. Earlier water cases have brought out the fact that the common law doctrines are applicable In this state enly where Make Your Selections Early During the Sale!!

When I wss sdvised to go to a skin specialist t went with no better results. My bodv wss covered witk lares white scales, with scales on my hands, arms and lower limbs.
