the massive walls of the ancient SaImona

to the northwest. And where the little
island of Gzeier, like bit of the cliffs
tumbled into the sea, at the north showed
its saffrony surface between the blue of
the bay and the sapphire of the sea, they
flooded the great statue of the saint with
such transcendent shine and seeming

The Spread of Influenza,


The outbreak of influenza is spreading
fast. with its customary concomitant of
a highly increased mortality from res
piratory affections. In the metropolis,
for one week, thirteen deaths were at
tributed primarily to influenza, the total
death rate being 1919 per 1000, or slight
ly less than the preceding week. 1t may
be noted that the death rate at Plymouth
for the week ending Nov. 2S was 38.3,
or precisely double what it was three
weeks previously. There has also been
rise in the death rates of Newcastle
on-Tyne and Sunderland. Influenza con-
tinues to be very prevalent in Scotland;
it has appeared in severe form at
Sandy, one of the isles of Orkney. In
Glasgow it is said that it has never been
20 widespread and severe as at the pres
ent time, and almost the same is true of
Edinburgh. In both places the resources
of the profession have been severely
taxed.
Abroad the accounts are Of like i'm
port. At Berlin it has been prevailing
during the past month. 1t has been
very severe at Hamburg and Dusseldorf,
and is also spreading rapidly in the Sile-
sian provinces and Schleswig- -Holstein.
1t has appeared again in Paris, where
Professor Brouardel has stated that it
was responsible for 100 deaths during
one week. The Australian mails bring
accounts of the deaths of several proni-
nent Melbourne citizens from influenza,
and our New Zealand correspondent
also speaks of its prevalence.-London

Powell Clayton, and he alone Of the sena-
tors who won the peculiar distinction at
that time OF being the first to represent re-
constructed states in the senate has re-
mained ever since his retirement resident
Of Arkansas.
Clayton was very young man when he
entered the senate, being only year or
two older than the limit prescribed by the
constitution. He ad lost an arm in the
war. He was a strong Republican, and
since his retirement from the senate he
has been more or less active as Repub-
Hcan politician in Arkansas, yet politics
have been 4 secondary consideration with
him. He was one of the first to realize
the magnificent resources OF his state, and
when be quilted the senate he determined
to make the effort to develop some Of
them. For that reason he gained many
friendships among citizens Of that state
who are Of the opposite political party.
Clayton's first efforts were to develop the
railway systems of Arkansas. He saw that
it would be impossible to utilize the mag
nifcent timber lands of the western part Of
the state unless they could be- reached by
railway. He also showed the people how
imperative was the necessity for railway
communication to bring the products Of
the fertile bottom lands to market Then
there We're the mineral regions to be
reached. When Clayton returned from
the senate to Arkansas most of the travel
ing in the state was done either by steam
boat, fatboat, stage or horseback. Now
every important section is reached by rail
way and the superior physical resources
are being very rapidly developed.
1t has been the opinion of some Of the
scientists at the Smithsonian institution
that, take it all in all, Arkansas is the
richest state in the Union in its natural
resources in proportion to its area 1t pro
duces everything, from sugar to Indian
corn and wheat, and it has what the other
sugar states have not, great mineral
wealth. Mr.. Clayton's relations of late
have been with business men rather than
with politicians, although he for long
time represented his party on the Repub-
Gcan national committee.

THE QUAY LIBEL SulT.

PITTSBURG, Jan. 19.-The trial of the
Quay libel suit was resumed this morning.
John A. Mellon, one of the defendants,
was called, and admitted the publication.
On Oct u he received r. communication
from Chairman Kerr of the Democratic
state com mittee, saying that important
matter had been sent for publication. An
electrotype was received the following day
near the time for going to press. He
thought that the matter was for public in
formation, and published it, The headline
"Quay, too, was In it, was sent up on a
slip of paper accompanying the electro
type. , ~.
that he had been connected with the pa
per since September, and did not know of
the publication of the certificate in ad-
vance, except having seen the electrotype.
Mellon was recalled, and said that he
had no knowledge of the article in advance
of publication. The defense here rested
their case.
The question was raised by Mr.. Marshall,
for the prosecution, as to the nature of the
publication. The court said, III reply,
that there is distinct line between priv
lleged communication and privileged oc-
casIon. The view of the court was that
the occasion WAS privileged, but that the
communication WAS not. It was the duty
of newspaper man when he hears any-
is 10 destroy the reputation of citizen, to
examine carefully the alleged facts. He
has no right to publish all that is dumped
into his Office.
Mr.. Dougherty then began the argu-
ment for the defense. He referred to the
rejection of Democratic jurors, and claim
cd that the jury was packed. IF any man
should say that jury was ever before Sc
lected as this one has been he would be
branded as a liar" said Mr. Dougherty.
Attorney Thompson then opened for
the commonwealth. lie said that the
rights of the press must always be subor-
dinated TO the rights of the individuals
The jury was out only twenty minutes
and returned a verdicto of guilty. The PEN
atty is line not TO exceed 81 900 or i'm
prisonmcnt or both. Senator Quay will
intercede for the defendants.
PITTSBURG, Pa, Jan. Ex-senator Quay's
libel case against the Post comes up to-
morrow and will attract great attention.
