WEST INDIA STORMS.

THE HURRICANE SEASON IN THE CARIBBEAN SEA.

The Month* Vrom July to October Specially Susceptible to Such Visitations. Appalling Consequence* of These Atmo*pherlc Disturbances In the Past.

[Special Correspondence,]

JmuGUAt Cuba, July 7.—The pose of nature is nowhere more profound than among scenes of tropical beauty, but like the calm of the sea it is treacherous, and the stillest moments •not rarely presage the storm. For some time past the Caribbean sea has been on its good behavior, and the winds and the waves, or rather their absence, seem to have favored our fleets and troops. Had it been otherwise, and the weather in one of its tempestuous moods, a phase of its temperament often display cd, it would have been impossible for General Shafter to land his troops as he did, speedily and without accident. But there is no certainty of tho continuance of such halcyon days, and naval officers are apprehensive that a change is imminent.

From the earliest times the months between July and October have been known in the West Indies as the hurricane season. Daring that period storms are frequent throughout tho entire group of islands. It is rare, however, that they assume tho violence of a hurricane, and fortunately so, for those prove so deKtructivo to lifo and property that were they frequent tho islands would bo uninhabitable.

Though occasional winds of great violonce como unheralded, hurricanes almost invariably givo warning of their approach by certain premonitory signs. Usually a day or so before tho outbreak of tho storm in this latitude there area peculiar laziness of the atmosphere and a cessation of tho regular trade winds. People complain of a feeliug of lassitude, probably produced by tho hygromotric condition of tho air. An ominous stillness seems to prevail, and sensitive persons are oppressed with a feeling of impending disaster. There is a steady and slow fall of tho barometer, followed by light breezes, increasing to high winds, generally betwoon southeast and northeast. Soon there comes a total obscuration of tho sky by a donse mass of clouds then tho storm bursts, but usually it does not attain its maximum fury for a few hours afterward.

It would bo impossible to conceive of anything more gloomily grand or appallingly terrible than a West Indian liurricauo. Tho wind sweeps along in its resistless course as if it wero rushing through a vacuum. Everything is carried before it—people, trees, houses. Tho rain ftlls in torrents, and vivid flashes of lightning alono relievo tho midnight gloom that is all pervading. Occasionally a lull comes ill tho storm, a break occurs in the denso pall overhead, and the sun may stiine, but'this is only momentary, for shortly the-

storm is renewed with increased fury, and what escaped destruction, during its first half is usually swept away during tho climax of its second outburst.

A few days ago in a conversation with a naval officer tho subject of storms was introduced. Tho mildness of tho season so far and tho freedom from violent winls ho regarded as rather ominous than otherwise, as hurricanes are not infrequently preceded by periods of great calm. "It is rarely," however, ho remarked, "that a skillful navigator by cautious maneuvering cannot avoid the danger jortion of a hurricane. The indications oi their approach are usually unmistakable, and so warned disaster can

In 1780 occurred tho mast widespread and destruct.

hurricane that ever vis

ited the West Indies. A French convoy, composed en (10 merchant vessels and transports, with 500 soldiers on board, escorted by frigates, wero enveloped in its deadly folds. Of those vessels ten alouo escaped destruction. All tho otlaws were engulfed in tho waves. At tho isle of Mono the hurricane sank the grantor part of a British merchant fleet anchored tb«re, and two British warships disappeared, and no one ever knew the spot at which they went down. On land 0,000 persons perished at Martinique, 6,000 at Santa Lucia and 1,600 at Port Royal At St. Pierre not a house was left standing, and the town of SaTana La Mar, Jamaica, was swept with its inhabitants into the sea. In August, IS73, a cyclone originating in the West Indies destroyed over 1,000 vessels on .our Atlantic coast and did an immense .amount of damage to our seaports along the entire octet In the great September hurricane of 18SS the town of Sagua la Grande, Cuba, was almost wholly destroyed. 1,000 lives were lew** and there were many shipwrecks. While anchor* ed in the harbor of Apia, Samoa, in 1889, three of our warships were wrecked by a ho-ricano. The Vandalia was sunk, with tie loss of 44 men tho Trenton was thrown on the beach in front of the American consulate, and the Kip-j sic was also bcached.

Lirioc In Manila.

Living in Manila, says Joseph Earle Stevens in McClure's Magazine, ifedirt cheap—if you are not fond of tinned peas and asparagus, that come from France and Germany. "Our cook got 40 cents per diem to supply our table with an entire dinner for four people, and for 5 cents extra he would decorate the cloth with orchids and put peas in the soup. As a servant, the native is satisfactory if you have enough of him. He takes bossing well, and you can pimch his head if things go wrong. In fact, he rather expects it than otherwise, and does not put his arms akimbo and march out of the house when you mildly suggest that the quality of ants in the cake

not up to

standard. For ants are everywhere, and unless the legs of your dining t?jfele and cook stove stand in cups of kerosene, the ants will be apt to eat the dinner beor a "For wages, these boys—and they are called boys till they die—get some $4 a month, and on this salary my own servant paid 10 per cent to the government, supported a wife and two children, bought all his own food and ran a fighting cock. I don't know how much he stole, but he used sometimes to call on me for an advance, saying that he needed funds to bury some relative. At first I was touched at his loss, but later on, when he tried to bury his mother twice over, I found it necessary to keep a rec ord of the family treo in order not to be led into paying an advance on the cost of two funerals-for the same person."

Inside of a Molecule.

The New South Wales government analyst, William M. Hamlet delivered the presidential address in. the section of chemistry at the recent meeting of the Australian Association For the Advancement of Science, the subject being "The Molecular Mechanism of an Elec trolyte."

He defined an electrolyte as a body in solution or state of fusion, capable of being instanteously decomposed by a current of electricity, and ho claimed that if tho explanation he offered was adequate for the electrolyte it must hold good for the constitution of the matter in the universe, so that the treatiso on the electrolyte has a most important scientific bearing. Tho met! od of investigating the action of one body upon any other, he reminded hip Audience, was brought to a high degree of accuracy by the immortal work of Sir Isaac Newton. He alluded to some observations of the late Professor Clifford, made over 20 years ago, this

thority

remarking, almost prophetical

ly, "We can look forward to the time when the structure and motions in the inside of a molecule will be so well known that somo future Kant or Laplace will bo able to mako an hypothesis about tho history and formation of mattor."—Nature.

The Cavalry Regiment.

The sabers olank'd, the+ men look'd young and healthy and strong the electric tramping of so many horses on the hard road, and tho gallant bearing, fine seat and bright faced appearance of a thousand and more handsome young American men, were so good to see. An hour later another troop went by, smaller in numbers, perhaps 800 men. They, too, look'd like serviceable men, campaigners used to fiold and fight. July 3—This forenoon, for more than an hour, again long strings of cavalry, several regiments, very fine men and horses, four or five abreast. I saw them in Fourteenth street, coming in town from north. Several hundred extra horses, somo of tho mares with colts, trotting along. {Appear'd to be a number of prisoners too). How inspiring always the cavalry regiments. Our mon are generally well mounted, feel good, are young, gay on the saddle, their blankets in a roll behind them, their sabers clanking at their sides. This noise and movement and the tramp of many horses' hoofs has a curious effect upon one.—"The Wound Dresser," by Walt Whitman.

She Married Him Anyhow.

A convict at a French penal settlement who was undergoing a life sentence desired to marry a female convict, such marriages being of common occur* reuce. Tho governor of the colony offer* ed no objection, but the priest proceeded to cross examine tho prisoner. "Did you not marry in France?" He said, "Yes." "And your wife is dead?" "She is." "Have you any documents to show tuat she is dead?" "No." "Then I must decline to marry you. You must produce some proof that you~ wife is dead." There was a pause, and the bride prospective looked anxiously at the would be groom. Finally he said, "I can prove that my former wife is dead." "How?" "I was sent here for killing her." And the bride accepted him notwithstanding.—Denver Times.

Transplanting Muscle*.

The wonders of surgery will, it seems, never cease Among the most important achievements is the transplanting of muscles. This has been successfully done in the case of a patient who had for half a lifetime been unable to use one leg on account of paralysis occurring in early childhood. The operation is thus described: "A six inch longitndinal incision is made on the inner side of the thigh, with the middle opposite the top of the patella. The sartorius is dissected out, cut off at its insertion, brought forward and attached to the muscular fascia just above and a little to the inner side of the patella. "The attachment must be made firmly by splitting the fascia and drawing the muscle through, so that it becomes adherent to both inner and outer surfaces. Kangaroo tendon is used for sutures, being the best material. The wound is then closed, and the whole thigh is bandaged, and finally a plaster of paris bandage, or a long splint, is applied The patient is kept recumbent for two weeks at least, gentle motion is commenced at the end of three weeks, and the plaster is entirely omitted at the end of from five to six weeks. This operation has been performed several times with great success, the only failures occurring where the muscles were imperfectly attached. This state of things was entirely remedied, however, in the later operations."—New York .Ledger.

Guatemala.

Guatemala might easily sustain ten times its present population. The soil is rich and easily cultivated, and, unlike the other Central American republics, there is plenty of labor. Some parts of the country are quite thickly populated, but the others are covered with dense forests and a variety of timber, which might be easily made marketable if means of transportation were provided. But, although Guatemala is much further advanced than the rest of Central America, her railway system does not exceed 250 miles there is no internal navigation, and the wagon roads are in a deplorable condition. The mineral wealth of tho country is supposed to be large, but it is only slightly developed. The mines are inaccessible, and, in the absence of modern machinery, which at present cannot be conveyed to them, cannot be worked with profits,

The government offers generous inducements to immigrants. The land laws are liberal, and efforts have been made from time to time to secure thi establishment of colonios and the preemption of public lands by private settlors. But all the accessible area is at present occupied, and no foreigner can expect to prosper in Guatemala unless he has abundant capital which will enable him to purchase at high prices plantations already developed.—Forum.

His Own Composition.

A recent article in Le Figaro of Paris is devoted to the American colony in that city. It says that the colony has' always played the important and brilliant role in society chiefly because most of the Americans were "Americaines." "It is certain," continues Le Figaro, "that out of ten 'Americainet residing in Paris there is but one American. Alfaus—'business,' as tbey say over there—absorbs the sterner sex in the United States. In that country the mon have noither tho inclination nor the opportunity for much leisure, and only pay us very short visits. "While their wives install themselves hero the 'good' husbaud only makes flying visits and is very seldom referred tom the elegant salons of the wives." The writer continues: "I was at an official ball not long ago, where one of them was the hero of a curious 'histoire.' He wore on the lapel of his coaa brilliant star, which struck me a? original and somewhat curious in form. Although very artistic, the order was unkuown to me. Some indiscreet person interrogated tho Yankee as to what order it was. The Yankee replied in a phlegmatio tone, 'It is my own composition.

Superstition* Bonapartes.

The Bonapartes always were superstitious, especially the mother of Napoleon. She always had a presentiment that the rise and fall of her familywould occur in the same century, that the glory which was prophesied for them would be followed by disaster. And the prediction was verified. She died in her eighty-seventh year, having lived long enough to see the downfall of all her children.

Napoleon I always feared Dec. 2 as an unlucky day, and it is related of him that before every important battle he would throw dice to ascertain if he were to lose or win. The "red men" whom he r'ways saw going to battle With him was a delusion that cause* him much suffering.—Toronto Saturday Night

A New Means of Sterilization.

One of the simplest and most thorough methods of sterilizing when it can be used is by means of heat. One of the difficulties in the use of this means is that the articles may be spoiled, especially where the heat is long continued. Baking or placing articles in dry heat for any length of time is not only an unreliable method, but attended with the danger of fire if a degree of heat is sufficiently thorough to sterilize them. Boiling or steaming is objectionable becatr.se most things would be rendered useless from the contact with moisture. Experiments have proved that hot oil is one of the best sterilizers known, especially for instruments.

One of our most eminent surgeons has demonstrated the fact that the most complete sterilizing follows the dipping of surgical instruments into boiling olive oil. One may determine the temperature of the oil by a very simple process of dropping bread crumbs into the oil. When they turn brown and crisp, the oil is hot enough for the surgeon's use. This is much more convenient than using the thermometer, which may not always be at hand. The oil may be heated over a spirit lamp, and a few spoonfuls will be sufficient for sterilizing the instruments used in some of the more simple operations.— Exchange.

Lord Rothschild's Physician.

One of the Chinese methods is, I believe, to pay the physician as long as the patient is in good health, with the obvious intention of making it the interest of the docttu to keep the patient well. Apparently this is the method Lord Rothschild has adopted. I hear that he pays Sir William Broadbent a retaining fee of 1,000 guineas a year, conditional on Sir William visiting him every Saturday to feel his pulse and see that he is keeping in good health.— Sheffield (England) Telegraph.

First Run on a Bank.

The first "run" on banking institutions in London was in 1067. Many Lombard street goldsmiths and bankers had lent out the money intrusted to them, and being called upon for payment were unable to meet tho demand. A crowd of creditors and others assembled and a riot followed, in which four bankers were hanged at their own doors before order could be restored and tH angry creditors persuaded that they were not being swindled.

"J Attaining: Refinement.

Charles Dudley Warner was once talking informally to the students of the Art league in New York on "Refinement. "And how may one best attain to this ideal of refinement?" asked one young man.

Mr. Warner stroked his whiskers very earnestly for a space, but this was the utmost he could lind of encouragement, A very good-way is to inherit it.

A Gallant Thief.

A woman in London recently had her pocket picked, one of tho articles being a sealed and unaddressed envelope, containing a £6 note. The next day she received back the stolen articles, with the following explanatory note:

DEAU MADAM—The exigencies of my profession led me Just now into possession of your purse, where I find 00 shillings, which 1 appropriate to my own needs, and these papers, which I return to you. 1 do this because 1 feel especially desirous to restore this little white envelope, which I have not been indlscreel enough to open.

May you be happy, dear girl, with him whom yon have chosen, and believe always in the good wishes of your obedient servant. _______________ *lv Tent Pins. I

Tent pins are mostly made of white oak. They must be of tough wood to stand the hard knocks to which they are subjected. They are made in lengths of 16 and 24 inches. Made of hard wood as they are they are yet liable to be broken, and they are also lost Even in peaoe the consumption of tent pins is considerable. A manufacturer of tents might carry in stock 5,000 or 10,000 tent pins. Iu war times the demand is of course fttr greater. Like many other manufactured articles of wood, tent pins are made in the west, in factories in proximity to the forests whence tb* supplies of wood are drawn.—New York Sun.

The Saltan and Oar Missionaries.

The Porte has demanded the recall of two American Missionaries from the province of Aleppo, on the pretext that their mission is likely to cause disturbances. "The sick man of Europe" is as unreasonable as his political health is feeble. As a bright contrast to his obstinacy .and stupidity, the people of America are ackoowl edging far and wide the beneficence of the. mission of Hosteller's Stomach Bitters, namely, to relieve and prevent malaria, rheumatism and kidney complaint, chronic dyspepsia, constipation and liver trouble.
