ardent hope of the future, greet in the palace
of the monarchy the representatives of a ma
ton that is now in complete possession of her
self. that Ia mistress OF her destinies and that
Is in the full splendor and strength of liberty.
The first thoughts OH this solemn meeting turn
to our fathers. That immortal generation of
1899. by dint of courage and many sacrifices,
secured for us benefits which we must beaueath
to our sons as a most precious inheritance
Never can our gratitude equal the grandeur of
the services rendered by our fathers to France
and to the human race.
The revolution was based upon the rights of
man. 1t created n new era in history, and
founded modern society. After MANY cruel
shocks. France has finally broken with the
personal power of one man. whatever title he
may take. She now recognizes as sole sovereign
the laws enacted by the representatives of the
nation. Under the 8gis of the republic. let lis
seek. i'll spirit of forbearance and accord, the
irresistible strength of united people, and
thus enable France to maintain her post in the
vanguard of the nations. Vive la Republique."

vent applause. At the conclusion of the ad-
dress the presidential party proceeded to the

THE SAMOAN CYCLONE

The fecturer dweit Somewhat upon the sub
ject of the recent terrible hurricane in the har-
Dor of Apia, Samoa, where three Of our vessels
and the lives of many men were lost. Let us
look, he said, at Apia harbor, and try to i'm
aglne the ships OF the American and German
fleets with ali anchors down and full head of
steam, pitching. dragging. crashing into one
another. hurled upon the cruel coral reefs,
buried in clouds Of foam and tons of solid
green water from the mountainous waves driven
into this little harbor by the fierce northerly
squalls OF the dangerous semi-circle OF a hurri-
cane. The data at hand indicates that the cy-
clone moved down from the northward. little
west of the islands, and then recurved and
moved slowly down upon them with rapidly in
creasing fury, the center passing little west
and south Of the harbor. and giving it the full
benefit of its northeasterly and northerly
winds
