IFORT IN AMERICAN HOTEL Ga.’avans'rics Surpass Those of Any Other Nation of thr Earth* Is Op.nton of One Writer. 1 remember somebody once saying to no a long time ago that the Americium had attained luxury by jumping dv, :- comfort. I think there is acer t.iin amount of truth in this, and yet it would be foolish to call American hotels uncomfortable. They are not uncomfortable. Only there Is this to be said: That to some people all Ik t d life is uncomfortable. They hate living in a crowd. They hate bustle, confusion, noise, the arrival and departure of people, etc. And there is certainly more hotel life in America 11 an in other countries. And yet what a saving to the nerves, and to the temper, are so many of the devices and the arrangements in American hotels. The telephone, for instance. If you want a nice test of temper, try to get a number at the Hotel Cecil in London: or, better still, spend a happy morning in ringing up people on the telephone In Paris. In America it is either done for you at once or vou know it cannot, be done, and the matter is settled. Hotel life in Ameri ca seems to me Infinitely better organized than in any other country in the world, with the possible exception of China. Because when you order a room at a Chinese hotel, in a small Chinese town, the room is built for you while you wait; you choose the style of room, and the paper, the carpeting and all the furniture are put in during the day.—Metropolitan Magazine. STREWN WITH WAR MUNITIONS Parts of Colon Found Liberally “Salted” With Ancient Make of Bombs and Grapeahot If what engineers and others inter etted in the additional reclamation work on filled fields in Colon report is true, ni ts of the city are fairly veil hailed with bombs and grapeshot. \ number «'■ these have been dug up by a suction dredge, which is now excavating near tlie end of .the slip, to the west of the pier at Cristobal About half a dozen of the larger projectiles and a peck of smaller balls were found in the stone box of the dredge recently, and it is estimated ! that a greater quantity went through the discharge pipe into the reclama tion fill east of East street, Colon, i'lie projectiles were incrusted with a kind of natural concrete, made up of ral deposits, sand and shells, to the thickne*# of two inches. Below this was a coating of rurt; beneath the tee! was clean and well preserved. The mark. ' O R. D. D. 1862/' was found in the interior of some of the largest projectiles.

There cmght to be a sight on every golf club as then' is on every rifle, so that one might take aim properly. Every golfr ought to carry a range finder.
