The Panama Canal Birdseye View Showing Route of the Great Waterway Now Nearing Completion wi$ |?U?tjBRA CUT ACCORDING to present plans, water wl.l bo let Into the new Panama canal on July 1. The first boat will enter In September. Going from k the Atlantic to tho Pacillc ocean a boat enters the cnnnl on the north side of the Isthmus of Panama at a small suburb called Cristobal Seven miles Inland it comes to tho Gatun locks. These lift the boat to a level of cighty.-fivo feet above the sen. This level Is maintained across tho famous Gatun artificial lakes and through tho Culebra cut to the Pedro Miguel (called Peter McGlll by American workmen) locks thirty-nine miles from tho Atlantic ocean and eleven miles from tho Pacific ocean. Tho Pedro Miguel and Mlrafiores locks lower the boat to the Pacific sea level. . Thence it goes to the other terminus, called La Boca, the Spanish words for mouth, a suburb of tho City of Panama? Tho odd sonsatlon will be given a traveler when he rides through the canal from Colon to Panama of going south and cast Instead of west, and when he rises the next day in Panama he will find that, because Panama Is on a point of land jutting out Into tho ocean, the sun l>oth rises and sets in the Pacific. In Its course the canal Is made to follow generally the valleys of the Mindl and Ohngrea rivers on tho north or Atlantic side and the Rio Grande on the south or Pacific slope. It crosses the height of land at the deep cut In Culebra hill between tho two oceans about fourteen miles from the Pacific. Culebra, the lowest bill on tho divide, was about 840 feet above sea level.
