ATLANTIC COAST o1OhM6. ;.
lSun FYdac,sco u etkiy Chronicle.)

At the Maritime Exchange In PhIle telphia
it is stated that the August hurricane on the
Atlantic coast was the most destructive AZ he
history If the country. The marine under
writer's value the property loss to saltlng
vessels alone at 0vsr 81 ,UuO,O0e, Eofty
vessels foundered, eighteen wee
at sea, forty six were stranded one hundred
and thirty damaged, aud the fate OF nineteen
is unknown. The Atlantic coast, from
Maine to North Carroll q, is in 4 dangero@
condition on account Of floating wrecks.
When We contrast our " coast with that
of the other side of the American continent
it is easy TO see why our broad ocean Is called
the Pacific. Outside Of the Japanese sea ana
the wind currents which are due to the IN
Huence Of the eastern shore of Asia, we have,
practically no such thing on the Paclhc ocean
as u hurricane or cyclone, at least nofth W
the equator. The const line OF California
alone is longer than the Atlantic coast ilne
from Boston to Charleston, and yet, WITHIN
the whole period of American occupation
there has never been a hurricane which APP
preached in intensity the recent storm on the
Atlantic shore.
Phis is said, not "a. boast or appear vain
glorious. but merely to point out the existing
difference in the. climatic conditions OF the
Atlantic and Pacific coasts. and to demon
%strIte. at least partially, that people VINO
live on the eastern shore, of the continent,
make a great mistake. If Columbus had
only got SO FAR out Of his reckoning as to DO
blown around Cape Horn and into the North
arm Pacific, who can say what California by
today might have been.

From investigations at Greenwich it appears.
that the cholera bacillus does not hke'smoke.
1t shares the feelings Of The tribe Of canni-
balls who petit toned an Evangelical Society to
send them missionaries who were members Of
the Anti Z obacco Society. The. authorities
at he wol khouse where cholera recently
broke out have discovered that male inmates
who hal been great smokers, or who had
been in the habit of chewing tobacco, passed
unscathed through the epidemic. Nearly
every man was or had been a smoker, and
the statistics show that only eightyssthree
males were attacked as compared with 100
females. 1t was found that when a man was
seized with the disease it took a very mild
form. Several old Irishwomen in the work
horse who smoked before their admission,
and now, when they could manage 1t. had al
escaped. Not one of them had been ut
tackled. The in vestigation. which had been
made showed that the epidemic must have
been caused by the water. The children, who
drank but little of it, had not been attacked.
Tobacco appears to- be a more effective
microbe killer shan DR.. Koch.

The success achieved last February by
Prof. Samuel r. Kelley's Tableau' d'Art
company, was repeated last evening at the
town hall before large audience, who
gave unmistakable evidence of their salts
faction. The program included many of
the same general features as that of last
year,-the drills and tableaux, the amusing
exercises in expression of emotion, the
swiftness Of grouping, -interspersed with
excellent readings. Miss Gertrude Tripp.
the charming young violinist who gave so
much pleasure last year, was again well re-
ceived. Though not so great a novelty
this year, the entertainment has lost none
of the artistic and charming qualities which
have made it so popular, and the Y. M. C.

the Tableau d. Art company for its course
