shrinkage in the leading stocks in the
street amounted to 5000, 100000, and
over one thousand millions of railway
values had gone into the hands Of veceiv-
ers. The lowest point was reached III
May, 1877, and then began the upward
movement that has perched the old stocks
on such dizzy heights.
That Jay Gould has been feeling the
market for another "brenk" for the past
six months is we'll known. He has lost
heavily in raidng stocks that had rise
in them, but has always been shrewd
enough to draw out before he was badly
damaged. 1t was rumored only ten days
ago that he had been caught by Wander
bilt in selling Northwest short, and set
tied by paying Vanderbilt S1,S00,000.
He bides his time. He can now COM
mand 500, 100000 where in '7S he got
together only $30,00O,000. A friend of
his told me the other day that he had
cash balance in the banks of Sl4, 600 600.
He is equipped for destruction as never
man was before. With his vast system
of roads, competing with almost every
leading line, he can open war, cut rates
and let slip havoc-with his American
Union telegraph company he has already
hammered the life out of Western Union
and can tumble it when he pleases.
With his newspapers he can create ap-
prehension. In 1878 almost entirely
alone and in disrepute he now has hosts
of friends and followers.
That he believes the time is ripe for
havoc can be told from the facts. Union
Pacific, which he created and made val
liable, is now selling 90 cents higher than
it was when he sold out of fit-presuma.
bly, believing that it had then reached
its top value, Lake Shore is now selling
so per cent. higher than it vas when he
was selling it short, implying thereby
that he thought it then too high. So of
St. Paul and Northwest. He believed
they were too high months ago, and
boldly sold them short-and yet they are
now 40 to so per cent. higher than they
| we're then. He will strike them soon
with all bis force, and then see the splin'
tiers fly.
It is fortunate that year after year the
South, and especially Geogia, becomes
more and more independent of the Wall
street influences. III the last panic our
banks were closed less than week and
the Atlanta banks not day. A few iron
mills were closed and some enterprises
halted in process of development, but
otherwise Georgia suffered but little.
She is in better fix now than ever. In
deed, the whole country is better able 10
stand shock than ever before, and many
who predict the early coming Of trouble
say that it will be sharp storm followed
by quick sunshine, rs in 1857, and not a
treputation of the dull and lasting paral'
ysis of '73.
But you may look out for break in
Wall street within the next six months.
Stocks rill tumble, values will shrink,
margins will be swept away as chaff in a
whirlwind, great houses will crack like
egg.shells and panic will hold the coun
Try in its grasp once more. And behind
all the dust and smoke and uproar,
cleaning in horrible calm and general
chaos, will be seen the )ivid and impassive
face of Jay Gould.

sent for. They had scarcely hope of
saving life. They decided, however, to
make the attempt. By an operation
known as trephining they lifted the skull
of the brain. They barely expected him
to survive the operation. For ten days
his pulse remained below forty. After
that time he improved rapidly; and on
the 10th inst. he was able to 60 to his
home at Hodges Depot. He says he
does not remember anything that hap
pcned after he left Columbia the night
of the 2sth of November until after the

Why AN AFRICAN KING CHANGED
His RELIGIoN.-Much interest was
aroused year or two ago about King
M'tesa, who rules country on the
northern shores of the Victora Nyanza,
and of whom Stanley gave some glowing
accounts. These accounts led to the
organization and dispatch of a mission
which ctst something like 917,000
(where of Baroness Burdette. Coutts
contributed several thousauds), and
which converted King M'tesa to the
Protestant form of Christianity. 1t was
felt then. and has been believed since,
that the conversion OF so distinguished u
potenlate was cheap at the price. But
this was neither the first nor the last OF
M'tesa's conversions. Like all his
fellow countrymen, he had started in lille
as devout pagan, worshlppiug Lubadi,
the Goddess Of the Lake. He then
conceived respect for the faith, and
especially for the guns and ammunition
of his ne ighbors, the Egyptians, 80 he
became Mussulman, and WAS duly
rewarded by little present of obsolete
mussle leaders. Then came the irrup.
ton of Stanley arl ruuors Of England
and the English religion aud breech
leaders. M'tesa thereupon conceived the
desire to become u Protestant, and was
happily aud successfully converted to
that faith by the mission above mentioned
which brought him, i'll addition to an i'm
proved faith, asupply ofimprovcdSniders.
Subsequent to this, however, the Jesuils
sent from AIgers q mission of their own,
with gorgeous vestmenls which brought
with il echoes of Martini Henrys and
Remingtons. Again Al'tesa showed
himself open to conviction, and became
Roman Catholic, when he has remained
up 10 three months ago. But at the
latter period his people clme 10 him and
demonstrated. They said: "Kng NJ M'tesa,

What a Volcano Can Do.

Cotapaxi, in 1883, threw its fiery rock
cts 5000 feet above its crater, while in
l754 the blazing mass, struggling for an
outlet, roared so that its awful voice was
heard at q distance of more than GOO
miles. In 1877 the crater of Tungura-
qua. one of the great peaks of the Andes,
flung out torrents of mud, which damned
up the rivers, opened new lakes, and in
valleys 1000 feet wide, made deposits
600 feet deep. The stream from Vesu.
vius, which, in 1887, passed through
Tore del Greco, contained $4,000 cubic
feet of solid matter, and in 1893, when
Tore del Greco was destroyed second
time, the mass of lava amounted to
45,000,000 cubic feet. In 1850 lEtna
poured forth a food which covered 81
square miles of surface and measured
only 1,0O0,0O0,000 cubic feet. On this
occasion The sand and scoria formed the
Monte Rosini, near Nicholosa, a cone OF
two miles in circumference, and 1000
feet high. The stream thrown out by
Etna in 1910 was in motion at the rate
of yard day for nine months after the
eruption; and it is on record that. the
lava of the same mountain. after terri
BILE eruption, was not thoroughly COO!
aud consolidated for ten years after the
event. In the eruption of Vesuvius, A.
D. 70, the scoria and ashes vomited forth
far excet ded the entire bulk of the
mountain; while in 1860 Etna disgorged
20 times its own mass. Vesuvius has
sent its ashes as far as Constantinople,
Syria and Egypt; it hurled stones eight
pounds in weight to Pompeii, a distance
of six miles. while similar masses were
tossed up 1000 feet above the summit.
Cotapaxi has projected block of 100
cubic yards in volume distance of nine
miles; and Sumbawa, in 1915, during the
most terrible eruption on record sent its
ashes as far as Java, distance of three
hundred miles.

the guns and all the powder that can
reasonably be expected to flow from
changes in religion, aud we invite you,
therefore, to return 10 the faith Of you:
fathers and the established church of
your country" King M'tesa has proved
accessible to the remonstrances of his
subjects, and has solemnly adjurcd all
his heresics and returned to the worship
of the goddess Lubadi.
