A KEFOBMER OF A PAST AGE A A

Savonarola Could Not Be Frightened Into Submission to Duke or Tope. I lecturer's Fine Description of a Prior of YltTj Eloquence That Moved Thousands, and rnfcwted Spirit That Conquered Lorenzo. "-Savonarola," the great Italian reformer L of the fifteenth century, vtslh the subject of sreajterfal lecture at Plymouth Church, last nnhU the lecturer being Rev. F. W. Gunsanlus, of Chicago. After picturing the period that brought forth Dante, Michael Anpelo and Girolarco Savonarola, the hearers were given a description of the great preacher as he was in Ferrara. "His cratory flashes like lightning in tho sky, the earth shakes beneath tho feet of thousands who listen." eaid the lecturer. "He paints the picture of the church with its horrors, in contrasts of light and shade that men cry out We must reform the church He paints the wrongs done by criminals seated upon thrones, tnd with it all he so enchains their imagination that "when they are free they cry out, 'The state must be reformed.' One day the Prime Minister of Lorenzo! tho Jlagnificent stands before him. Lorenzo vants this magnificent artist with words. Ah, Lorenzo, you will have something more than an artist to deal with now a man on fire with the eternal God and blazing with slight that will illumine every dark and ghastly feature of your court." Th day at last dawned when this intrepid orator began his work in Florence. Before three months the city sits before him." continued Mr. Gunsanlus, "listening to tones that go through their consciences like bells of alarm, But what pictures of the horrors of Lorenzo's court this man preaches! Lorenzo hears of.it and wonders that this man shall dare to speak. Yes, Florence sits before him to be molded like clay in the hands of the potter. Savonarola is prior of San Marco, and has never gone to see Lorenzo. He was not nmch on pastoral visitation; life was too fthort. Lorenzo said, 'Something must bo done to stop this infernal attack upon me and my character.' Conscience was pursuing Lorenzo, und Savonarola stood behind his conscience. Lorenzo fixed himself one day in the most dignified manner possible and took a walk. One of those exceedingly ladylike brethren, who for all the world would not have any difficulty in the parish, went to Savonarola and said that Lorenzo was in the garden. 'Has he asked for me!' inquired Savonarola." No. no answered the brother. 'Don't disturb him,' said Savonarola. 'Something must be clone with this prior thinks Lorenzo, 'his fiery eloquence sweeps in dangerous proximity to the inflammable material near my throne. Try the contribution-box.' So one day some gold is found mixed with tho copper coin. The ladylike brother says that Lorenzo evidently put it there 'Give them to the poor,' said tiavonarola, 'the copper coins are enough for us.' He was told to preach a little more mild or he would have to go. Tell your master,' said the flaming prior, 'that, though I am the weakest citizen in Florence, he shall go; I shall remain.' 11 The lecturer portrayed the death-bed scene of Lorenzo who, turning from his l7ing flatterers, sent for the prior of San Marco. "What must I do! What shall I do to be saved!" he cried. Martin Luther had rot spoken yet. "But here was Luther," continued Mr. Gnnsaulus'bef ore Luther's time: here was a prior forgetting popes and cardinals and preaching justification by faith. 'Believe in the infinite mercy of God.' 1 do, I do,' said the dying man. 'Kestore your ill-gotten gains' good works to follow faith. 'I will, I will Then this forerunner of Washington, this Cromwell before Cromwell, lifted up his band before that dying man and said: 'Kestore the lib erties of Florence!" The lecturer told how Savonarola received Charles VIII, of France, in Florence, and how, when the French evacuated the place, Savonarola's influence was all-powerful. Nearly three hundred years ago this constructive statesman made Florence a republic. He said the burdens of govern ment must be borne by the rich, not: by tbe poor. "Years before your modern problem of tariff and revenue." continued the !ecturer. "this man preached equal rights, equal responsibilities. Do yon believe in cdncation! This man saw in Florence that every uneducated man was a dangerous citizen. At last a moment came when the eyes of hate looked t upon the republic. Yonder in Rouie, on the throne of tho papacy, sat the monster, Alexander VI. With the very genius of the papacy he hated the republic. It is impossible for Leo XIII to rule tonight as Jesuitism would have him rule through the public schools of America and have a iepublio under our tfaj. This man must be crushed. The Pope thinks he may be able to get Savonarola to Home. He can murder him there cheaper than in Florence, and invites him to come. Savonarola tells him practic ally that his office is in Florence. The raze of the PoDe knew no bounds, but he must control it. Ho ottered Savonarola the red hat of a cardinal. 'I will have a red hat said tho weary reformer, beleaguered with foes, 'but it will not bo the red hat of a cardinal. It will bo the red hat of martyrdom Poet, statesman, ora tor, reformer, thou hast snoken well." The lecturer closed with a most thrilling description of tho excommunication and execution of the great Italian reformer. On rext Wednesdav nitrht Miss Amelia B. Kdwards will deliver the last lecture of the Indianapolis lecture course. Father Marquette. lion. John L. Griffiths snoke to the boys and girls, yesterday afternoon, at Ply mouth Church. The subject was Father Marquette, tho bravo and good Jesuit priest, who was tho pioneer missionary among tho savage red men of the North west, and who. with Joliet, a young French man, explored the Mississippi and determined that it Cowed into tho Gulf of Mex ico, and not into the Pacific ocean. Tho lecturer said that when Father Marquette lauded at Quebec, on the 27th of September. Ci'A thorn wirA n tbia rnnnrrv of white persons about lW.OOO, about as many people as there are in m this county, which is but one of the forty-two States of this Union. Mr. Gritliths quoted largely from t Vl wnndnrfnl flinrr thnt tVfl lfft. YtV Father Marquette, and the audience listened with the keenest attention. He ppoKe of the great area of territory that the discoveries of the brave priest and tho young merchant, Joliet. gave to their country under tho name of New France. It was an empire which, fortunately for American, was lost to tho French by tho victory of Wolfe, a triumph which marked the greatest turning point in modern history. MINOR CITY MATTERS.

CULL1SGS FROM THE COURTS.

A Eecelrer Kef used, but Injunction Contin ued Against th Midland. In the federal court, yesterday, Judge Gresham sustained the demurrer of the Loan and Investment Company to the cross-bill of the Midland Railroad Company, set aside so much of the order en tered before as required the former, the plaintiff corporation, to deposit pledge bonds amounting to $1,000,000. again refused to appoint a receiver, and continued the injunction against the railway company restraining it from issuing any more bonds. The history in brief of this widely-adver tised case is as follows: The Midland Kailway Company, of which Harry Crawford is president, borrowed from the Loan and Investment Company of West Virginia S1SS.000, executing a note for that sum in favor of the latter, turning over mortgage bonds to the amount of gl,000,000as security for the loan, agreeing that no more bonds 6hould bo issued, and if more were issued that they should also be de livered to the Loan and Investment Company as additional security. The latter brought suit against the railway company, asking for the appointment of a receiver on the grounds that it was insolvent, that the company and its omeers were acting fraudulently, and were about to sell 110,000 more bonds in violation of the agreement; also, that the officers were managing the property badly, misappropriat ing its tunas, not paying their employes, and depreciating the value of tho road. Judge Gresham refused the application lor the appointment of a receiver, but issued an injunction against the railroad company restraining it from issuing any more bonds and requiring the additional issue of $110,000 to be deposited in court. ine railroad company tnea nieu a cross-action against the Loan and Invest ment Company, admitting that it had re ceived the Slo8,000 as alleged, and owea the plain till" company that amount when the suit was brought, but alleged that the bringing of that suit with the charges of tbo road's insolvency and bad condition, etc.. had damaged the comnanv to the ex tent of 250.000, nearly twice the amount of of its debt, and asked that tbe latter do adjudged paid by the setting off of the amount 6138,000 from the sum sued for 5250,000. The plaintitt's tiled a demurrer to this cross-bill, and that was the status of the case when Judge Gresham gave it fura. t. i irk. iuci vuuoiucriiuuu vesieruay, mo paiucn to tbe suit are left in much the same position in which they started, except the Loan and Investment Company is allowed to take away its $1,000,000 pledge bonds deposited in court, and the railway company is enjoined from issuing any more bonds. Attorney Walls's Answer. William B. Walls, the attorney against whom charges brought by the Marion Connty 13 a r Association are pending, tiled an answer to the complaint yesterday. He claims that in settling the estate of Peter I very, he found it insolvent and that it was settled as solvent only by the creditors accepting a sum loss than their claims, in the cases of Martin Tnrquin. Edward 8. De Tramble and Catharine Frankensteinshe settled the accounts satisfactorily, he claime and withheld 103.64 from Mrs. Louise S. Bernhamer's account only be cause 1 r. Bernhamero wed him that amount for legal services. Mr. Waldron's Damage Suit. The Waldron damage suit, against Dick son &, Talbott, went to the jury yesterday morning. Judge Howe, in giving his in structions, told the jurors that ticket agent Gordon was not to be considered in the case, and that, so far as an assault and battery charge was concerned as against him, a verdict ranst necessarily be found for the defendants. I ho jury remained out all day, and at a late hour last night naa not reached a verdict. Engine Said to Have Been Defective. Charles 23. Boynton, administrator of the estate of James R. Scanion, filed a com plaint in the Superior Court yesterday against tho Chicago, St, Louis & Pitts burg Railroad Company for $10,000 dam ages. Scanion was killed in the company's yards on Dec. 23 'last while coupling cars. iijo laiuiiu ujitiuia iud otituiuii was ordered out with an engine that was known to be defective. Notes from the Dockets. The Supreme Court adjourned yesterday until next Tuesday. Mary Kabe, an orphan, was adopted by Edward and Alice .Smith through proceed ings in the Circuit Court, yesterday.

Recent Electrical Wonders Predicted In a Government Report Forty Tears Ago. nartford Courant In view of the wonderful progress made during tho last decade in the use of elec tricity certain portions of the report of the Hon. Thomas Ewbank. Commissioner of Patents, for the years 1840-50. make mighty interesting reading at this late day. Ref erence is mado to his report on '.'Electric Motors" which contains many prophecies as accurate, in their wa3 as any to be found in the writings of the prophets of old. In his opening remarks on electric motors the writer says: 1UO UCUCl 19 tt IUW1U) VUO lliUU SIOItncity, in one or more of its manifestations, is ordained to effect, tho mightiest of revolutions in human affairs. In subtlety and power, in excitability, rapidity and intensity of action there is nothing like it Its complete subjugation may be held as the climax of conquests in art, the apex of ambition in science so blessed and boundless, so surpassing all anticipations, are the seeming results that must follow. When, in addition to what it is now performing as a messenger one swifter than those of the gods, and more reliable than the boasted Arielsof poets it can be drawn cheaply from its hiding places, and made to propel land and water chariots, animate manufacturing mechanisms, become an agricultural laborer and a household drudge of all work, then we may begin to think the genius of civilization is vaulting rapidly toward tho zenith. "Several years ago," continues thereport. "the discovery of electro-magnetism awak ened sanguine expectationsthatin it would be found a prime mover so compaot and energetic as to be adapted to general purposes." After describing the method ofproducing reciprocating and rotary motion, and enumerating some of the experiments already made, Mr. Ewbank continues: "But these experiments, interesting as they certainly were, have brought out no marked results, nor afforded any high de gree of encouragement to proceed. It might be imprudent to assert that electro-magnet ism can never supersede steam; still, in tho present state of electrical science, tho desideratnm is rather to be nopea ior tnan expected. Great, however, will be his glory wio in tne lace of these discouragements succeeds." . ome of tho difficulties to be overcome are next pointed out and then comes this interesting declaration: "At the present cost of metallio inei. electro-magnetism cannot become commercially valuable, nor in any of the ordinary applications of steam can it come into the competition wun that agent not even if the requisite acids could be had for nothing, since there is more virtue in a pound of coal than in nve or zinc," The writer then draws tho following con clusions: '".a; "Eitherthe science isnot ripe for applica tion, or experimenters have not got on the right track. It is not devices for transmit ting the force that are wanted, but means of extending the range throngn wnicn it acts. Should this be obtained, Teadier and cheaper moans of exciting it will probably follow. A new power is now wanted, is looked for: and what a held of enterprise will its introduction open! Every department of mental and physical exist- - 1 i' A .1 1 It. L A . I enco win oe Deneuieu oy it. r?ieaiu uus wrought gloriously, and equal changes for the better will be wrought by that agent which displaces it, or which takes a place beside it. "Thero are indications." the report con tinues, "of a law by which every motor must come in its own order. If it appears before its time it will partake more or less of the character of an abortion. It will be imperfectly developed, its habitudes not understood and the means of controlling them wanting. This was the case with steam, whose mechanical properties the ancients detected, yet they were not prepared for it. In their hands its application was confined to trifles, and even for them soon laid aside. Such was the caso with explosive compounds also. and. to some extent, it is the case now with electricity. That this piercing and potent energy is ordained to play a prominent part in the arts as it does in nature is all but certain; perhaps as multifarious in its operations, too. Already it separates metals from their ores and gilds our plate; in telegraphs it annihilates time, and in electrie clocks measures it; as an element for artificial illumination it is now being courted, and may, at no distant day, be used to light up the atmosphere over cities in place of myriads of petty tapers. For other purposes, also, the most sagacious of spirits aro endeavoring to subdue it." It is evident that' the views of the writer were not shared by all of his co-laborer, for a little further along he says: "While someare sanguine of soon yoking this invisible steed in material traces, and compelling it to work as do grosser motors, others incline to tho opinion that the chief of earthly conquests is not to be made so readily. Certea. when electricity is brought into a man's service as a common worker, all that mav come after must needs be subordinate. When this ubiquitous, exhaustless, imponderable, incorruptiblo somethingagent, spirit, substance' or whatever it be becomes so far subdued, men will have progressed, one would suppose, beyond terrestrial, and entered upon celestial physICS. The writer gi-res additional evidence of the keen foresight and unwavering faith that characterize the whole paper when he says: "The pursuit is, however, a legitimate one, and neither repeated nor long-contin-ed failures can be attended with dishonor. Success is a matter of time if not now to be attained, it will be must be. Tbe difficulty with electro-magnetism the short distance through which the force is felt belongs, not to the ordinary rh.ases of the fluid in nature's exhibitions. She causes it to act through greater space than can ever bo acquired in tho arts; and, as a further inducement for us to persevere, she shows its energy under circumstances where it might have been least expected circumstances it were well for inventors to study; wo must first understand her operations before we can successfully imitate them." As an instance of tho power wielded by electricity.be tells of a church-steeplo, constructed of stone, that was burst asunder during a thunder-storm, the walls being dispersed in every direction. One hundred tons of stone, he says, wero blown to a distance of thirty yards, in three seconds exhibiting a mechanical force calculated to have exceeded that of over 12.0) horses. "A power that does these things, and greater," the writer observes, "only wants to be understood to make it turn our carnage, paddle and mill-wheels. There is enough to turn them forever, can we but hud out the means to fame it." HU Most Humiliating Failure.

AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. Personal, Local and General Notes. The Interstate Commerce Commission has decided that party, or theatrical, rate tickets are illegal. Charles Weddle, a former engineer on the Big Four, now on the Atchison. Topeka fc Santa Fe road, accompanied by his wife, is visiting friends in this State. 'Charles Manning, who for twelve years was marshal at tho Union Station, has decided to go out of railroading and open a real estate onice in this city, March 1. Thomas Butler, who for several years has been foreman of the shops of the Pennsylvania Company at Fort Wayne, has been appointed master mechanic of the company's shops at Crestline, O. Through the operations of the weighing and inspecting bureau at Cleveland, O., the roads gained in actual weights over those given by shippers, in the month of January, 15.84 per cent, in tonnage. A strong and determined effort is making to prevent the rate troubles reaching the Southwestern lines, all of which are now busy and carrying business at very fair rates, although S3 per cent, lower than four years ago. James Barker, general passenger agent of the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago road, is taking a short Southern trip for the benefit cf his health, which has been considerably impaired as a result of a serious attack of la grippe. The Louisville, New Albany & Chicago road earned in the second week of February, 38.439; increase over earnings for the corresponding week of 1889, $448. Tho Chesapeake &. Ohio earned 140,377; increase this year, $33,963. A special train over the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Indianapolis yesterday brought in 211 of tho rotnrning saengerfest excursionists. The train, which consisted of eight Pullman cars, made the 125 miles in three hours and twelve minutes. The Louisville, New Albany fc Chicago management has largely increased the number of men on each section, and put in service two large floating gangs, who aro rapidly getting the track in shape to leave no room for questioning its safety. Thomas Johnson, who was for some years ticket agent of the Louisville, Evansville & St. Louis road at New Albany, and more recently district superintendent of tho Wagner Palace-car Company at Chicago, died in Chicago on Thursday. The ticket offices of the Ohio, Indiana & Western and the Cincinnati. Sandusky & Cleveland roads at Springfield, O., have been consolidated and other steps ave to be taken to cut down, the expenses of the two roads at that point and at Columbus, O. The Pennsylvania Company has ordered several thousand tons of new steel rails for the Indianapolis &, Vincennen division of the system. Superintendent Mansfield says that when this is in tho track, the main lino from Indianapolis to Vincennes will be practically laid with steel, F. A. Lewis, who for some years past has represented the Union Pacific at Topeka, has been appointed agent of the United States and the Pacific express at that point. S. B. Harrington, who formerly represented the U. P. in St, Louis, will succeed Mr. Levis with the U. P. The Big Fonr, yesterday, commenced tho putting m of an interlocking switch and signal at the crossing of the Belt road. There will then be no moro stopping of trains at the Iklt-road crossing. The inter locking safety signal, which they use, costs at each crossing, complete, $2,000. The New York Central has ordered 30.000 tons of steel rails, weighing eighty pounds to the yard. This is the beginning of the laying cf their passenger tracks between New York City and Builalo with steel rails of that weight. These rails are fifteen pounds to the yard heavier than the present rail on that line. Thero is good authority for stating that negotiations are pending which willresult in the carrying out of the plan of the Cor bin syndicate as to a consolidation of the Cincinnati, Sandusky & Cleveland with the Ohio. Indiana &, Western, which would mean that it is to b secured by tho Big lour syndicate. Tho Pennsylvania Company's trains, in running from Uolumbus to Indianapolis, cross fourteen railroads, for twelve of which its trains are now obliged to stop. but two having the inter-locking safety switch and signals. Arrangements have been made to equip eight of these crossings with this safety device. The reports of the Postoffice Department make a favorable record for the Louisville, New Albany &. Chicago road, this company, in proportion to the number of trains run, having fower late trains during the yearl&$9at tho Indianapolis and Louisville terminals than eitner of the roads centering at the points named. D. J. Mackcy evidently has got hold of tho Chicago & Eastern Illinois road. It is stated that his eflorts in an economical direction have already resulted in a saving of ?(yyXX) a year in its operating expenses, and he has hardly got warmed in his seat. In the dropping of two officials ho cut down the salary expenses $20,000 a year. Col. John Lee has gone to New York to see if he can raise money on the bonds of the projected New York, Fort Wayno it Chicago road. Columbia City and Warsaw, lnd., have each voted a subsidy of 1 per cent, on tho township tax to aid the enterprise, and a half dozen other townships will within a short time vote on a subsidy to the road. A rather singular accident occurred on tho Louisville, Evansville & St. Louis road, a day or two ago, a trestle giving way as a freight train was passing over it. The locomotive and twelve cars had passed over safely, when live dropped through the trestle, leaving the caboose safe on the other side of the openiug. Not a person received a scratch in the accident. The official statement shows that the freight mileage of the St. Louis division of the Big Four system in the month of January last was 29 per cent, in excess of that of January, 1889; that of the Indianapolis division,. between Indianapolis and Galion, 17 per cent, greater this year: that of the Cincinnati division. 2 percent. larger, while tho Cleveland division dropped behind a little. Edward Muraford, formerly ticket-scalper at this point, more recently in Chicago, has opened a bitter fight upon the American Ticket Brokers' Association. On March, 1 Mr. Mulford and his friends in the move one in Omaha, one in Minneapolis and one in Indianapolis. It is understood that the reorganization of the Ohio. Indiana & estern road will be perfected on Wednesday next. Austin Corbin retiring from the presidency andM. E. Ingalls taking tho position. The O., I. W. will on that date come under full control of tbe Big Four people. It may be thirty days, however, says one of the officers m authority, before the policy as regards operating :t is fully carried out. Several official changes of importance maybe looked for. It would not be surprising shonld the report that the Big Four had secured control of tho Whitewater Valley road prove true. For years it has been operated in the interest of tho Big Four, and has been a very considerable feeder. By securing absolute control of thojniauerUv. Pieaiaeiit Inolli

will accomplish two things: It will be the end of extending the Whitewater road to Cincinnati, and it will prevent the Mackey syndicate getting into Cincinnati over it. as intended, the. Evansvillo & Richmond road intersecting it at Laurel, IntL, coming across from Greensburg. Railroad officials who are anxious to seo paying rates adhered to by the Western roads derive a good deal of comfort from the announcenre.it by the trunk lines to the effect that they will not receive freight for points west of Chicago except on condition that the standard freigh ;rate should be charged to Chicago, with 6ich additions for points west ot there as might be tho tariff of the granger roads at the time tho goods reached Chicago. This effectually prevents the Eastern trunk lines from any possibility of beingmixed up with the ratecutting operations of the Northwestern lines. Harry Fuller, general passenger agent of tho Chesapeake &. Ohio, and receiving as large a salary, it is stated, as any general passenger agent in tho country, in 1670 was conductor of a sleeping car running into St Louis. John Abbott, general passenger agentof the Erie at that time, says he saw there was something in the young man, and placed him at Indianapolis - to look after tho passenger interests of the com panv in that territory, and he developed so well that ho soon took him to New York, and finally advanced him to the position of assistant general passenger agent. From that time he has steadily been pressing to the front, until he now ranks among tho best passenger men. A JAPANESE EARTHQUAKE. Terrific Banting of Nature's GlganUo Subterranean Boiler. Corn Mil Magazine. Around Bandai all was calm and peaceful when the day dawned cn Juno IS. Columns of white steam floated dreamily in the cool mountain air, as the invalids repaired to their early bath, and all around was beautiful on that bright summer morning when, at 7:30, there occurred an earthquake so violent as to leave no room for doubt that some mischief was brewing. Fifteen minutes later this was followed by a second and yet more severe shock. Another brief interval of about ten minutes and the earth began to heave like i tossing sea, rising and sinking so that house.) collapsed, totally wrecked, and people were violently thrown down and became actually sick, as if at sea. As standing was impossible, they tried to crawl on all-fours to whatever suggested shelter, but they soon realized that all places were alike unsafe. The earthquake was immediately followed by au appalling and unearthly sound as of the roar of a thousand thunder-claps, blending with tho shriek of all the steamwhistles and roaring steam-boilers of earth, and ere the terrified and deafened human beings could recall their bewilderod senses they beheld the whole mighty cone of . Sho-Bandaisan blown bodily into the air, whero it overspread the whole heavens with a vast dense pall of ashes and mudspray, blotting out tho light cf day-and turning all to thick darkness. Ere these had time to fall back to the earth thero poured forth dark clouds of vapor and such stifling gases as well-nigh choked all living creatures. Then leaping tongues of infernal ilame, crimson and purple, seemed to Hash right up to tho heavens, and. after appalling earth-throes, were succeeded by showers of red-hot ashes, sulphur and boiling water, accompanied by fearful subterranean roaring and rumbling, and by a rushing whirlwind of hurricane force, uprooting great trees and hurling them afar. Another moment and there poured forth floods of boiliug liquid mud, which swept down the mountain side with snch velocity that within a period variously estimated at from ten to fifteen minutes the. scalding torrent was rushing past the village of Nagasake. on the brink of theNagase river. having traveled ten miles from the crater more rapidly than any express tram, rrobablv much of this fluid mud was hurled direct throngh the air, as was certainly the case withthemany hundreds of millions of tons which wero blown up at the first explosion. Evidently the earthquakes must have rent some subterranean fissures, through which a great volume of waters suddenly poured into the eternal fires, generating a stupendous volume of steam, which must have continued to increase, and so become more and more compressed as volcanic hres and subterranean waters continued their awful struggle, converting the foundations of the mountain into a cyclopean boiler, which finally exploded, with tbe result, a million times magnified, of the most awful boiler explosion ever known above ground. The convulsions of the mountain rent great chasms from which uprose jets of Same, ashes and boiling water, and many of the wretched fugitives wero caught up by these awful fountains and hurled on high with terrific force, to fall back to earth all blackened and boiled. Some of these poor corpses were found caught on the boughs of trees, scalded and mangled beyond recognition. Others were battered and crushed by the red-hot stones and rocks which had. been hurled from the crater to tho clouds, and fell back to earth with awful violence. The eruption continued for about two hours. By 10 a. m. its violence was spent, though for hours afterwards the ground trembled and quivered, as well it might after so appalling a fit of passiou. But in those two hours the wholo face of thirty square miles of country (in the form of a vast fan extending to a radius five miles from tho central crater) was totally changed. Of the mountain cone thus suddenly transformed into a steam boiler, there remains now only the back a ragged, overhanging precipice, rising to a sheer height, variously estimated at COO or 1,000 feet above a bottomless crater of about a mile in diameter. Thence, with ceaseless roar, rise dense clouds of suffocating sulphnrons steam, which sometimes clear otf sufficiently to allow adventurou climbers a momentary glimpse of the seething mud below. Those who have ascended that remnant of tho mountain from tbe slope behind it. and so have reached the brink of that precipice, have behold such a picture of desolation as seems scarcely to belong to this earth. All that was Little Bandai now lies outspread in a thick layer of horrid mud, vary ing in depth from ten to loO feet deep enough to efface every accustomed feature in the wholo area and itself partly coated with layers of pale-gray ashes and black stones and rocks, which seem to hao been ejected to such a height as not to have fallen to earth until the awful mud-wave had poured itself out. It is now described as a wild chaos of earth, rocks and mud, in some places resembling the concreto blocks of some cyclopean breakwater, in others rather suggesting a raging sea. who.se gigantic waves have suddenly been congealed. Of all that made the scene so beautiful and pleasant not a vestige remainsnot a blade of grass where lately the mountain was clothed with springy turf, not a green leaf, not a sign of lito, nothing but absolute desolation, with a horrid smell rising from stagnant sulphur pools.

LOVE CAUSES A ILETOLUTIOX, Romantic Teaturei of the Recent Cprlalc Against President Harriot, of Guatemala. Letter In New York World. General Barrios, a nephew of the great Barrios, and the present hope of the grow ing revolutionary party, becamo to-day a voluntary exile. Charged with conspiring against the government of Guatemala, ho has for some time suffered confinement, while his friends have been mercilessly shot down. It being found impossible to sus tain the charges against him. Barrios was recently released, but placed under military surveillance. President Barrillos fearing the ellect upon the people of Barrios's presence as a persecuted man, has made his lifV so irksome that, accompanied by his wife.' he left Guatemala City this morning for San Jose, whero he embarked on a Pacificmail steamer for San Francisco. He wilLj remain in that State for some months, and' will issue a pamphlet on the political eitna-J tion in this country, and the privileges denied him here, The causes which led to tho arrest ac& imprisonment of Barrios, and also to tbo' uprising in Guatemala, followed as it wad by the capture and execution of tho prlnci pals, are romantic in tho extreme. Threc or four years ago Hipolito Kuano, a gallant youth of this province, fell desperately in) love with the daughter of Vicente Casta ncda. The passion was returned, but be! tween the families of Kuano and Caitanedo there was much ill feeling.. It was the Montague and Capnlet over again. 6enod Ruano and his sweetheart were younj,,' ardent and very much in earnest. They) were affluent in wordly goods, were 'well born, general favorites, and wanted Tbut the favor of their families to be supremely happy. This was not forthcoming, and o obdurate was Castaneda that ho appealed to the President to prevent the possiblo union of his daughter with the hated Ruano. Barrillos had seen and much admired the graceful senorita, and not only did he agree to separate the lovers, but invited the father and child as guests to the President's palace, where she would find it impossible to meet her gallant swain. The father accepted and becamo the guest of Barrillo's household. Upon both tho lordly dictator heapcl unlimited honors. . Ho made tho father vice-president of a rich province., and so dazzled the eyes of the girl with his show of power and prominence that she forgot her vows of constancy, forgot her faithful Ruano. It was bat a little time before Knana was made aware of the condition of alfairs.

Meanwhile Castacba-. had opposed Barrillos, and for political shortcomings was unceremoniously shot Thus, in tho space of a few months, the) faithless one had caused tho death of her royal lover and devoted father. Barrios, when asked if he had anything to do with tho uprising, said: "I had not. Ruano was a friend of mine, and I sympathized with him, for all the world loves a lover, especially one so deeply wrsnged as Ruano, but I had nothing to do with hia conspiracy. 1 have no good opinion of Barrillos. I have long seen the error wo mado in making him President after my uncle's death, but the time will come when the error will be rectified by his downfall." Within a few days after the uprisingO.000 government troops marched to Guscaltan to meet Rivas and his Indians. They met. There was a short, sharp conilict, and suddenly Rivas showed the white feather. His soldiers, dismayed and discouraged, lied in disorder, with the government troops in hot pursuit, and tho revolution was over. No one anticipated such a result. Valiant Rivas amazed the country by showing that on one occasion thero was no fight in kirn. Never has bo portentous a beginning come to a more sudden or ignominious conclusion. The second day after the battle, or skirmish, rather, the old rebel was taken in Honduras, and marched toTegris gulf, where he now is. Rebel chief Gen. Rivas has the name of bciug the first soldier of the republic, but at tho approach of tho government forces, and in face of an inferior force, ho suddenly gave up the contest and fled across tho mountains into Honduras. He was there captured, und is now a prisoner of war at legniguepa. It is the general impression hero that the old soldier is demented. His record is that of a brilliant and invincible lighter. He has a loyal following of good men. and ho was in a position to embroil not only tho little republic, but all of Central America, And yet to ignominionsly flee before tho light had really begun, gives color to the suggestion that the old man is crazy. It is tho custom in theso countries to promptly shoot all leaders engaged in rebellion against tho home government, but tho impression prevails that Rivas will not be executed. m Too independent Toledo .ClaAe.
