HAVE LIFE ONLY IN FABLES Well-Known but Never Seen Animals —Among Them.the Phoenix Dragon and Unicorn. There.are some mythological mons- ters which all of us have heard of, but none of us have ever seen. Who, for Instance, has ever set eyes -on & Phoenix, that remarkable bird, men- tioned even by church writers, which renews its youth in the fire? And yet there are few birds whose names are more widely known. In spite of fairy tales and Chinese armorial- bearings where is the muse- um that contains even a bone, let alone a skeleton of a dragon? As & matter of fact, did snakes ever fly? Equally fanciful is the unicorn. More ought to be known about this good and gentle animal. In particu- lar he is susceptible to female charms, a fact that was taken advantage of by hunters, who, according to the story bogks, used a beautiful maiden as a decoy to enable them to capture the unmicorn. The chief prize about the unicorn was not the brush, as in the case of the fox, but the horn. This was considered the finest anti- dote to poison, and so strong was this belief that almost up to the time of the French Revolution all food served at the royal table in France was touch- ed with a piece of what.was supposed to be the horn of a unicorn. Even in China legends about the unicorn pre- vail. There it is described as so gens tle that it would not walk on growing grass or tread on the smallest insect. Unicorn, it may be added, were the supporters of the arms of the old kings of Scotland, and for that reason the unicorn is represented today in thc Writish_armori eari AR We are ‘Jobhen of PIN.

Narthwest [“The Grand -Canyon of the Canal;* for go stupendous™ will ‘it appear 'when completed and the water let in ithat the most vivid imagination can scarcely imagine it the work of man. 'For nearly.a century it has been the dream of nations that some day man would succeed in tearing asunder the | mountains forming the continéntal divide, allowing the waters of the At- lantic to flow across the isthmus and join the placid Pacific. The French, assured by De Lesseps of the possibil- ity of uniting the two oceans by means of a canal across the Isthmus of Panama, began work in 1879. For a number of months his brave fol- lowers strove to lower the great mountains; but the result was a mere scratch upon the surface, com- pared with the immense canyon the Americans have excavated. * After thousands of French laborers —and many of -the most prominent engin- eers had fallen victims to the deadly yellow fever, the task was abandoned. In 1905 the United States govern- ment bought from the French their right in Panama and all ‘their old machinery and equipment. The dig- ging of Culebra Cut began at.once on a scale so tremendous that it attract- ed the attention of the entire world. For three years following the Ameri- can invasion the task of digsing a great canal through the huge moun- taing and impenetrable jungles was enough to discourage any corps of engineers and laborers. To add to the seeming impossibil- ity of the undertaking, there was a constant battle against yellow fever during the first three years. The gov- ernment began .a “clean-up cam- paign” and a war on mosquitos soon after the canal work began, and the Americans worked fearlessly-through all this period of suffering and death. ‘Bach day thousands of cubic yards of earth and rock were removed from the cut. Culebra Cut might-well be termed | Abandoning the pitifully inade- quate outfit left by ‘the French, our country replaced it with ' modern steam shovels and hundreds of dirt cars hanled by American-locomotives. The great hills shook and the jungles echoed the roar from the explosion of thousands of pounds - of dynamite, used to tear away the face of the mountains to allow the shovels to nose their way through on their slew but sure journey to the Pacific. Since 1906 an army of workers guided by the ingenuity of American engineers has blown apart, shoveled up, and carried away 88,650,000 cubic yards of earth from Culebra Cut. . Today the work is ninety per cent com- Dleted. The best view of the cut is to be had from the top of the bank oppos- ite the town of Culebra.- More than half a mile across .is the opposite bank. Hundreds of feet below are the shovels, dirt trains, and hundreds of men at work.: From this great height they look like tiny specks. Through several yellow fever epi- demics and constant tropical diseases and the intense scorching sun, the men on the job have labored steadily day after day to accomplish this won- derful work, until now it is practical- ly finished. This excavation is so immense that any 'ship crossing the Atlantic ocean today could easily be buried in it: Every day a different human inter- est story will appear in the Pioneer.
