VOLCANOES IN ACTION TERRIFIC DAMAGE DONE WHEN MOUNTAINS BLOW UP. Long List of Disasters Due to Eruptions—That of Krakatoa In 1883 About the Worst of Which There Is Record.

The eruption of Sakura recalls that I of Mount Pelee. which destroyed St i Pierre, Martinique, the most beautiful I city in the West inu re, with appalling . suddenness. Like Sukura, tho vol canic peak cf Pelee had been quiescent for a long period, anu was believed to be practically extinct. It smoked a little for a few days before it blew up, but it had previously sent up similar thin, vaporous clouds at intervals of ten or twenty years—eo nobody paid attention to its seemingly harmless activity. Without warning a pillar of rock shot up from the crater of Mount Pelee to a height of nearly 100 feet, and a rent opened half-way up the mountain's slope, from which blew a hot blast, stupefying and incinerating every organic thing In the path of its withering breath. In less time than it takes to tell, St. Pierre, with nearly its entire population, was wiped out and buried in the rain of ashee which followed the explosion. In Its tremendous force, however, the eruption of Sakura more nearly resembles that of Krakatoa in 1883. This is believed to have been the greatest cataclysmic disturbance suffered by the earth in historic times, and possibly within the more recent of the geologic eras. Krakatoa was a volcauic peak rising 2,000 feet above sea level, in Sunda strait. After warning manifestations, which continued several days, the outburst came on August 27. Tho entire northern hall j of the volcano was blown away, and | the soundings subsequently made i showed a d< pth of 1,000 feet of watei j where the mountain had stood. An eye-witness of some of tho prenomena I observed from the shore cf Java pro I cessions of native boats, held by s current many times more irresistible than that of Niagara and sucked into ' the vortex caused by the great hole torn in the floor of the ocean. It it estimated that the column of stem s and ashes thrown up by Krakatoa's | explosion shot up to a height of 17 miles. Nearby islands were covered with volcanic debris to the height o; the tree tops of their forests. Th;

dust particles left floating in the upper; strata of the atmosphere encompass, ii , the earth ae with a belt 75 degrees wide, producing a deep red glow in tlie sky after sunset for months after the upheaval. On the day of the eruption I and for several days thereafter lamps had to be lighted at Batavia at noon, j The waver started by the explosion I reached almost around the earth. They ’ were distinctly observed at Cap 1 Horn, and were perceptible even in i the English channel. The most re i markable fact, however, was the dis I tance to which the noise of the explo- j eion traveled. It was audible in the • Philippines, l.fflO miles; at Ceyton 2,uirti miles, und in South Australis 2,2<<0 miles away; and a sea captalc j claims to have distinctly heard it ch the way across the Indian ocean of! Zanzibar. The Destroying Teeth. It is somewhat cruelly said that ;■ number of prominent men. civil and military, who have passed away !i | Washington recently, ate themselves | into untimely graves Os course this might well be tn.c of the civil persons, but what are we to think of our stalwart army ord navy officers succumbing to soups at.d salads, rlddle-i by rib ronsts and rar outs and driven down and out by souffles and sirloins! In these piping times of peace when the dove twitters on the rpaulettcd ahoulder, will the insidious enemy rout an ornamental soldiery with potage and with pudding? Where arc the army regulations? Where are the shades of the ragged continentals starving at Valley Forge? Where arc the abstemious liatlts of the warriors of old? Where are a lot of things that have been mislaid? When Cadmus sowed the teeth and the soldiers sprang Into life, he certainly didn’t dream that teeth would also lay them low. Luxury of Sugar. Sugar considered an article of luxury in Europe until tea and coffee - became usual articles of diet. Sugar was then w»ed to sweeten these beverages and so gradually came to have a prominent i art tn the dally diet. Before the days of sugar much more meat was eaten and the drinking of alcoholic beverage* was much more common. The (air maldm who could not, with Impunity, drink a pint of ale for breakfast was unusual. Perhaps, tn spite of the fact that tnout of us eat too much of It. sugar Is a blessing. Even overawectenrd coffee and cereal covered with sugar sound more beneficial thnn a pint of ale and halt a pound of beef for breakfast Boy Nature. Bishop Olmsted wee talking about boy nature. ’’Boy nature.” be said, “shows Itself In numberless way*. I once said to a little boy: •"Do you know the parables, my ! ebild?’ I "'Yes, sir.’ he replied. I ” And which of tbe parables,’ said I, do you like boat f ’’ 1 lite the nno,’ he answered, after a moment's thought, ‘where somebody , loafs and Mihe« ”

PICKED OUT THE RIGHT GIRL When It Came to Art of Making Men Fall In Love She Proved te Be Well Grounded. "Miss Milledge." he said, “1 want you to do me a favor." '■l shall be glad to," she replied, "U I can.” "I hardly know just how to explain it. 1 hope you won't take offense at what 1 say. It is rather a delicate matter. May Ibe thorough ly frank?” '•Certainly. What is the trouble? "There’s a girl with whom 1 have been terribly in love.”

"Aren’t you any more?" "That's it. 1 am. I want to get over it. You see. she doesn't care for me, and I want to forget her.” "And you want me to help you?" "Yes, If you please. I've been horribly upset. I've tried to take au interest in other things, but 1 can't get her out of my mind. It has seemed since she told me I had no chance to win her love as if nothing at all was worth while. I realize that I can't go on. feeling this way. I've got to do something. I’ve reasoned it all out. and I think I have found a solution of the problem.” "The case is interesting. What la your solution?” "I must become interested in some one else. I want you to make me forget her. You can —” "I don’t care to hear any more about your affair. If you think 1 have nothing better to do than —" "Please wait till I have explained. I was afraid I shouldn't be able to present the matter in the proper light, you see, 1 have beet! thinking of ail the girls I know, and you are the only one who can possibly help me out of my trouble. Some of the others might be willing enough, but they couldn't make me forget her. You alone are more beautiful, more graceful, more charming In every way than she is. So lam compelled to ask you to rescue me. You see how it is, don't you’” "I think I do. But how am Ito proceed. Do you want me to make you fall In love with me?" "Yes. Will you?” "O, very well, anything to oblige a fellow creature in distress. I suppose you realize that 1 don't care for you at all. that there is some one else whom I think a great deal of, that I don't consider you handsome, and that —” ' Why do you begin by telling me that?” You want me to make you fall In love with me, don't you?"—Chicago Record-Herald.

Art Gallery in Schoolhouse. The opening of the public art gallery in the Washington Irving high school marks the first step in a movement which, it is hoped, may be spread to every part of the city. It is tho result of a suggestion made by Patrick H. McGowan, former president of the board of aidermen, who was convinced that by making use of school buildings as centers art, with its uplifting Influence, could be brought j more easily within the reach of the ! masses. That the new gallery, which, ' by the way. w the first municipal art gallery, will be a great success seems assured. If others were to be estab- j listed there is no doubt owners of private galleries would be glad to offer works of art enough to keep them all constantly supplied with exhibitions. The private collections in this city contain treasures which otherwise might never be placed on public view This innovation is in line with tbe people's demand that school buildings be used more widely than only during tchcol hears. It is added evidence of the approach of the time when our schcol buildings will be civic, art and community as well as educational centers. —New York Globe. Sparrow Pie for Poor. The way to get rid of the sparrow la to eat him. observed Deputy Game Warden Louis Kuertt of Hazelton, sc- | cording to a Cincinnati (O.) dispatch to the Philadelphia Record. He announced that in a few weeks be expects to come to Cincinnati with a large trap, which be will place somewhere and invite all the sparrows in the vicinity to come in. •'Sparrow potpie." aays Kuertz, "Is . a rare dish. I have eaten It myself. It's better than chicken pie. I propose to catch the sparrows and distribute them frea to all who wish to eat them. Twenty-four sparrows baked in a pie—sounds like the old rhymemake pie enough for an averagwatse family." If the crusade against the sparrows is oucceseful the fight will be extendM to every section of the city and each day's catch of birds will be passed out In the neighborhood to help tolve the high cost of living problem. Kuerts say*. Old-Fashioned House. Minor furnlablugs for the bouse of ■ighteenth century type are not easily picked up. but of late some of tbe oldfashioned domestic plenishings have been reproduced at prices which even ho very thrifty may seriously consid sr.
