Cause of the Ischia Disaster.

The volcanoes have q good deal of bus.
moss put upon them just now, between
earth and sky, but it is doubted in we'll
informed quarters If the disaster at Gas.
amarciano was at all due to valcanic
agency. 1t Is said that the delicate ap-
paratus on Mount Vesuvius, whichis ar.
ranged to give warning Of any change in
the stability Of the surface, showed no
signs of any perturbation. The newer
and apparently better founded theory is,
that the ground was undermined by the
action of hot springs, and that tho town
stood upon mere crust of tho earth,
which gave way ut the time of the dis
sster.

A Change OF Sentiment.

The newspaper editor who has been
veXing his soul over the way the youth
of the land gulped down dime novels of
the blood and thunder sort can feel bet
ter. A change of sentiment has already
betrayed itself, and there is reason TO
hope that "One-Eyed Dick" and dead
Shot Jim" will soon be out of print.
Yesterday lad of fourteen, who has
devoured about thousand five and ten
cent novels during the last year, en-
tered Woodward-avenuc news-Storc.
and when the clerk handed him down
"Thc Black Demon of the Prairies, -
and other late publications of the sort,
he turned away with sigh and re-
marked:
~ don't care for 'em any more"
'Why, what's the matterp"
"Well, l read Injun stories and run
away TO become an Injun-slayer. Dad
brought me back and whaled me half
TO death. | read pirate stories and
shipped on schooner for Buffalo and
almost died of sea-sickness. | read
hunting stories, but there's nothing to
hunt around here except cats. I've
tried to be trapper, but the only game
| ever caught was the milkman. and
he's laying for me yet. / kinder wanted
to be a train-robber, but the trains
wouldn't stop to be robbed, and when
/ read of boy heroes and looked around
TO save rich girls in runaway coupe or
old men from the river there never was
any chance. I'm going to change and
read something else
"Well, what shall il be?''
IL want something about boy who
began low down and worked up He
mustn't rush into any burning houses,
rave any stores from being robbed, dis
cover any plots TO blow up steamboats,
or save any old women from mad dogs.
He must be just like the rest of US
have headaches, get licked, hate TO get
out of bed, fight his brothers and steal
sugar and take IL to bed TO eat"
The dealer couldn't find such book,
ind the lad went out with the remark
that nobody seemed to care TO write
anything for boys, and that he guessed
he'd have to get pair of bones and
song-book and become song-and-
dance man. Who can write a boys
book which will reflect the characteris-
tics and adventures of the modern boyp

Getting Wealth.

The thirst for gold prompts men to
extraordinary eXcrtions. And in its
pursuit they will endure terrible priva.
lions. We are led to these remarks by
late advices from Cape Town in re.
ference to the diamond fields of South
Africa These diamond fields are about
six hundred miles from Cape Town,
and their revenue has been very con-
siderable.
The capital of the siXty-fve mining
companies is E7,00O,000, and one OF
these, the Kimberg. has yielded G3,000,.
600 year. The mine was Il miles in
circumference and $50 feet deep but
lately The soft debris has tumblcd in to
such an extend that it is thought it will
take eighteen months to clear it out.
This. together with terrible droughts,
failure of crops and famine, has led to
q sad state of affairs. Several leading
men have blown their brains out, o
large number have returned to England,
while those who remain are in pan
icky, starving and dcspondent condition.
Thousands OF these men have put in their
fortunes only to lose money, time and
health, after enduring incredible priva-
tions.
The lesson which the failure of these
mines teaches is, that in the mad race
for wealth but few win prizes. The
major part, after wears of excessive toll
and hardship, in which young men grow
prematurcly old, wake up to II sense OF
terrible loss and gricvous dsappoint-
ment. 1t is bitter thought-this con.
sciousncss Of wasted, ruined life. But
al. IL. ,t f.it. b,
over is rich i'm examples. A little OBJ
servation of Wall Street, or of the Stock.
Board in Chicago, will emphasize this
fact
They who haste to be rich serve
hard master And yet the bulk of our
young men, unmindful of the past and
the lessons of experience, will plunge in
to learn the facts by bitter experience.
The experience Of others. like the offers
of salvation, is often rejected because
offered on such easy terms. If any
reader of these words will spend little
time i'm learning from others what are
the pitfalls of life. and what the true
road TO success, he may soon outrlln
those who scorn all advice. And after
all il is not,what YOU get, but the spirit
which actuatcs YOU and tho use you
make of the means God intrusts To YOU
Many man lives noble life and does
more good with $4,000 than others
with million. Not what we get, but
the spirit and the use, marks out the
truly successful man. -G Golden Rule.
