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.

WATER RIGHTS GO
Chief Justice
ishment
Sees Their Abol
in Decision.
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

there Is an apparent necessity for them.
The doctrina of riparian ownership is a
common-law doctrine, and under the In
terpretation in the specially concurring
opinion it Is evidently abolished a 'ar
as Oregon Is concerned by the opinion
of the majority of the court.
It is probahlo that this feature of the
opinion will be threshed out further In
event the case is given a rehearing,
Which Is probable, owing to the differ

point Involved, at least.

Police Jlove Mysteriously In Taking
First Active Step Since Crime
on December J Father on

SPOKANE. Wash., Dec 37. (Special.)
Elisabeth Weber. 16 years of age. Is
held In the juvenile Jail as a result of
the investigation of the murder of her
sister. Anna Weber, on Summit boule
vard. December 7.
The detention of Elisabeth Weber Is
the first definite move the police have
made in the Weber murder -case. The
girl was taken Tuesday without the
knowledge of her father or mother, and
any news of her arrest has been closely

Scalp, Body, Hands, Limbs Covered
with Scales. Could Not Stand Tor
ture. Cured by Cuticura Remedies.
"About three years ago I was attacked
with a very severe itching and burning all
over my body and finally my skin broke
until my body looicea lute
a piece of raw meat. I did
believe thst I could not
stand the torture any
longer, while all the time
I was using the salve and
the wash ordered by my ,
physician without relief.
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. In about one week my
scalp was covered with scales which looked
like dandruff but became worse each day
until at the end of another week the scales
were as larw ss on a fih. The Itch in mv .
head wss unbearable. My bait was coming
out in combfuls until It looked so bad I was
ashamed to go on the street.
"I used tar soap for a shampoo but It
took no effect. At the end of three welt
the back of my head was completely bald.
I was a eisht when I decided to try the
Cuticura Ointment for the hair, and when
I saw the wonderful results I decided to try
the Cuticura Soap and Ointment on my body.
After taking six baths in hot water with
plenty of Cuticura Soap, and using three
Boies of Cuticura Ointment and one bottle
of Cuticura Pills, I wis cured. My hair baa
grown more than an inch in length.
