come from the north, apparently traversing
the Cordilleras through Mexico. Tropical

ment of Sacatepeques every hacienda has
been more or less injured. The force
OF the disaster fell on that part
OF the valley where is situated
the estate OF Ret2na, taking In q portion of
the valley which contained the most numer-
GUS and highly cultivated estates of the de-
partment. New and beautiful estates In
Cantaro Calvaro have also suffered,
but the loss is less and can be
more easily repaired than on the older
and more prosperous estates. Several years
must necessarily elapse before the coffee
plantations can be restored to their usually
healthy condition. The sugar cane was kill
ed as 1t stood, SO that the loss In this respect
Is confRed to the amount actually uncut.

Il Is pitiful to witness the condition OF

ments at work In his chaotic mass. Oc-
casionally, for a day or two the blem-
ishes disappear. and the glorious king Of
day shows face like shield Of glow
ing gold. But the aspect quickly
changes; spots come rushing in all direc-
tions and assuming all forms. They ap-
pear singly and in pairs, and again In
groups and lows. Immense groups
break up into small ones, and
small ones unite TO form great
chasms, into which half q dozen
worlds might be dropped and there would
still be room for more. Sometimes the
spots are visible to the naked eye, and
at that time good opera glass or a spy
glass viii make them easily perceptible.
Hundreds of observers all over the world
watch the suns face every clear day,
and keep q record of the number of
spots, their size, and the direction in
which they move; for, as the sun turns
on his axis, they turn with him, some OF
them remaining for months without
much change, some taking new forms,
and some disappearing entirely. Very
little is knoT-n of this mysterious sun or

ninety millions of miles away.
Once in about eleven years the sun

explosions, in comparison with which
our hercest volcanic eruptions are but
the flicker of flame. Besides the sun
spot agitation, the gaseous outbursts are
marked and vivid. The tongues of flame
or rosy protuberances are darting forth
IN all directions and bearing their testi-
mony to the solar commotion. MIR.
Trevelot of Cambridge, who makes
daily observation of the suns chrome
sphere, gives a graphic description of
q remarkable solar protuberanCe that he
witnessed on the 18th of November.
When first seen it was large and compli
Gated, extending upward from the sun
about 100000 miles Three or four
hours after, it had developed into huge
proportions. extending far out into space,
and vanishing gradually TO regions
where it could not be perceived. AS
nearly as it could be measured, it reach
ed a height of over quarter of the suns
diameter, or about 235, 900 miles. Such
protuberance hurled upward from the
earth would almost reach the mooni
Two hours after the whole structure had
collapsed and was only about 1900
miles high. Observations like this give
an idea of the mighty force at work in
the solar orb, and make observers long
for the time when satisfactory solution
may be found for this mysterious peri
odical solar disturbance, so intimately
connected with the meteorological con
dition of the earth.

TIE TEXAS LAND FRAUDS.
The Authorities AFTER she Recently
Found Papers.

ST. LOUIS, March 5.--A special to the
Rspabltcan from Dallas, Texas, says; "The
recently discovered land fraud papers are
receiving the attention OF the State aushori-
ties. Governor Roberts telegraphed Thurs
day to parties here to hold and secure the
papers at all hazards. He has appointed
W. L. Crawford, OF this city, one of the most
able lawyers in this State, to conduct the
legal proceedings. Detectives are at work
on the matter. The State Land Commits
sioner telegraphed last night that he was on
his way from Austin to Dallas for the pa
pers. Nothing has been heard OF the
whereabouts of Colonel Bray since he left
this city, about q week ago. George john
son, who was indicted nearly four years ago
with Bray and Teller, and who until
six months ago was In Austin
Jail, when he was let out
on bond, disappeared from Austin stimuli
taneously with Col. Bray. His trial was set
for the present court at Austin, and his
bondsmen are held liable. Mccarthy,
the wealthy cattle man, who was accused
Of killing negro soldier at Fort Concho
about thirty days ago, is his principal surety.
Col. J.. r. Williams, who has the papers in

The Beers, and What They Want.
Nea0 York Post

A correspondent asks what the Trans
vaal is, what its inhabitants, the Beers,
have done, and what the English have
done, and why they want to fight about
it. Without entering at this time into
minor details of difference or the later
incidents that have pushed evaporation
to hostility, we will name the broader
features of the controversy. The Trans
vaal is region that includes all the
country to the north of the Vaal river
and hence the name-as far as the Linn
popo Tor Crocodile) river, and embraces
both sides Of the Quathlamba Noun
tains. It lies between latitude 90 de-
grees Is minutes and 90 degrees 40 min
utes south, and longitude 26 degrees to
80 degrees 10 minutes east. Its area is
about one hundred and fifteen thousand
square miles, and its population is esti-
mated at three hundred thousand, of
whom about one-tenth are whites.
Now certain Dutch Beers who lived
in Cape Colony and Natal became dis
satisfied with British rule. They did
not take kindly to change which to the
old Hollanders of Manhattan made SO
little difference Like the people of
the Orange Free State they thought they
would like a government of their own
The Scotch were consoled for the merg-
ing of their nationality by the considera-
ton that Scottish dynasty was seated
on the British throne; and it was long
ago pointed out to Dutch colonists
whose country was eeded to England
that the circumstance of Dutch Prince
having ascended the English throne
should reconcile themselves in a like
manner. But the Beers failed TO see the
matter in this light; such comfort they
thought might have been very we'll for
contemporaneous enjoyment, but was of
little worth merely as a "reminiscences.
Thus 1t was that in 1910 these dissatis
fed Beers marched. like 80 many modern
Hebrews, out of the land of their mas
ters and set up republic for themselves
on the further side of the Vaal. sThey
deemed this to be free territory, and
thought that at least they would only
have to contest their footing with saw
ages. For a long time they cherished
hopes that Great Britain would allow
them to enjoy their independence in
peace. But for some special reasons,
apart from her customary lust for terri
tory, Great Britain began to feel other
wise disposed. One plausible reason
given out for interference was the fear
of general war between the natives of
Africa and the European colonists; and
at last, in 1847, the Transvaal was for.
mally annexed to the Cape Colony.
Such, in brief, Is an outline of the
events that have led up to the present
war. England wants the Transvaal, like
its neighbors, Natal and Cape Colony.
to be added to the list of imperial pos
sessions, and asserts claim to the soil
prior to the Boer occupation; and the
Beers want their independence. We
have said enough to indicate alike the
validity of their claim to this independ.
ence, and also, unfortunately. their
slender chance Of forcibly maintaining it.
