Earthquakes and Volcanoes.

The theory that there is an intimate
connection between earthquakes and
volcanoes does not appear TO be well
founded. There are n number of vol
canoes in sections where earthquakes
are seldom felt, and earthquakes are
frequent where there are no volcanoes.
In the tropics where both are frequent,
there is more or less sympathy between
them. The fall of a large portion of
the earth's crust into the central sea Of
molten lava is very liable to start the
smoke out of the earth's chimneys, just
rs 4 charge of coal thrown into fur
mace sends the smoke out of tho tall
stack. Should large body of water
accompany the falling mass then an
explosion takes place, an earthquake
shock is felt, and the escaping steam
carries ashes and lava out with it.

The Greatest Religious Edifice in
America

The great building at Salt Lake,
which the Saints have been twenty
eight years in constructing, is approach
ing completion, The main walls are
done. 1t is built of granite, which is
hauled from the mountains back of Salt
Lake on great wagons or trucks with
wheels twelve feet high The walls
are ten feet in thickness, and eighty
five feet in height 1t has cost up to
this tine 81, 5000 o, which las been
collected b. the tithing tax. 1t will
require six years more to finish the
work. Probably no other church
building in the United States has been
constructed in way to secure such
durability as is possible to this. Some
of those who predict the early ruin Of
the Mormon hierarchy are wondering
what use they can make of this temple.
But such calculations are rather pre-
mature. The sect may endure longer
than the temple. Alta California.

"I'm hurried to dea m said the Hare,
when the dogs were after him, to the
Chipmunk, who begged that he would
stop and crack nut of gossip with
him; "but if you will take my

"Oh, no, replied the Hare, grinning /;

Rome. EN- route for Rugby. Tenn.
When seen by a Herald reporter no was
fired with enthusiasm. not so much in
relation to the new Rugby and its pro
posed school, as about row that had
occurred on the steamer while coming
over.
There was on the deck of the steam
err be explained. 1.-TWO rooms--one a
smoking room and one reading room.
The reading room is supposed to be for
the use of the ladies as well rs the gen.
t.emen. Monday, the third day out.
they turned the room into card room
and smoking room, going on with
cards. draughts. ETC., all day. Wen,
went off to the smoking room and
found that there had been baccarat
bank started there. A man from AUS
tralia--.a perfectly good, honest fellow
he was. but he made his living that
way-had started the game with three
| other men. all middle aged. The bank
was perfectly square one, and the
play entirely honest. SO far as | know
and believe.
This was kept up all day, and up to
the time OF putting ont the lights and
going to bed. and every day after that.
from Ii o'clock in the morning until
bedtime. this baccarat bank was kept
going, and there was much of the time
a row of players five orsix deep around
the game. Many of these were mere
boys. lads of 20 or less. who were al
lowed to punt their shillings or dollars
or more. The stake was sometimes up
to Is. believe.
Now, l do not object to the bacca-
rat going on, but what did object to
was its being carried on openly and
tbs boys being allowed to join in the
game. And ! objected, as did many
others, to the reading room being
made inaccessible to the ladies. SO
one of the passengers, a friend of mine,
drew up memorial, and led the sig
natures with my own. 1t was signed
by = large number of the passengers.
This paper was laying ON the saloon
table and the passengers were signing
1t in great numbers, when | was told
that fellow named Lord was up on
deck talking about it and telling all
sots of lies about what we were doing.
went right up and spoke to him.
asked him if he had read the memorial
and he admitted that he had not. Then
friend of mine. young American
gentleman, struck one of the other
side. Of course we stopped them at
once, but there was some sharp dis
cussions afterwards and great deal of
bad feeling.
Since we landed" ho continued,
I'VE have presented the memorial to
the agents here, and they say they do
not propose to do anything about it, so
| want the press to take it up. 1t is GO
ing to do n great deal of hurt if our
youth are to be exposed to this tempt
alton. A great proportion of the tray
elers on these steamers are mere boys,
and | do not think it right or proper
that they should be admitted to any
game of this kind. Baccarat is not al
lowed in any of our clubs in London,
and it seems pity that it should be
played openly on the steamers. - ew
