While volcanoes are assigned TO the de-

can do as architects. See here what they
have builded. All up and down these
islands are dead volcanoes Rocked
in cradle of earthquake, they grew
up to an active life, and came to their
last breath, and the mounds in which
they sleep are decorated with tropical
blooms. But the greatest living volcano
of all the earth is Hawaiian, and named

volcanoes of the earth held a convention
to elect king; and Etha was there. and
Heckla was there, and Stromboli was

FuSiyama was there, and Mauna Loa was
there. The discussion in this convention
of volcanoes was heated. They all spouted
impassioned sentiment. Some were can

of one pre- er1inence ana others for other
superioritios. But when it was put TO

A MEXICAN LION AT LARGE.
The Brute Spread ing Terror in the
Country Around ReesburR.
5burg, (Ga) letter to Rome Tribun,

Reesburg, (Ga) letter to Rome Tribune
Very little ever happens TO mar the
quiet of this peaceful community, but for
the past four weeks the good people have
left their homes after the evening shad-
ows closed down over hill and valley with
fear and trembling.
The 1.-THE, tawny body Of Mexican lion
has been seen several times, both at night
and in the broad daylight. by men of I'M
doubted integrity. Farm houses are
pretty close together about two miles
north OF here around Caldwell's station
on the Chattanooga, Rome and Columbus
railroad. The houses are nearly all on
thd eastern side Of the railroad. while on
the other Is dense stretch Of woods with
only dwelling here and there. and IL is
around here that the Lion Is seen more
frequently than elsewhere.

was his large yard dog, and hiaaed the

the chickens. AS objects became palmer,
he was Mortified to see that the supposed
dog was the sinuous form of the lion. The
animal never moved during the several
minutes that MIR. Caldwell stood so near
it, but when the gentleman ran into the
house, seized his gun and returned. the
intruder had disappeared. Next morn
ing fifteen fine chickens were missing.
Mrs Ledbetter who lives on Mr.. Cald-
wells plantation, has seen the lion plainly
in the daytime, while it was crossing an
opening near her home. She describes it
as being about the hight of large dog,
with short. yellow hair covering its body,
large leonine like head, and shaggy,
heavy hair covering neck and head. But
the strage part of it is that the beast has
a thick leather collar around his neck,
with about twelve inches of chain at
tached to il.
A large party spent whole day hunt
ing for 1t, but while they were securing
one part Of the country, the cunning
brute was seen quite distance from
where they were searching.
Mr.. J. B. Daniel, the third party leader
of Bakers district, had an experience
with the dangerous beast recently that he
won't forget soon. Mr.. Daniel was re-
turning home about 10 o'clock at night,
and while passing new Bethel church, a
Ull6 uOEbu VI uCLG, AGdiu a ElON mug
noise in the woods, his path lay through
a dense, swampy piece of woods, and the
night was intensely dark, making it al
most impossible TO see his hand foot
from his face. He stopped to listen,
and heard cat-like steps coming TO-
ward him through the leaves. Queer
sensations shot up and down his
backbone, and his hair had an
alarming tendency to do the porcupine
act AS he turned TO hasten his steps
homeward a fearful, prolonged howl
right behind him was heard. Mr.. Daniel,
thinking personal safety the better part
of valor, dashed swiftly up the road.
Like a race horse, he ran and close in the
rear he heard something leaping through
the underbrush. The cold perspiration
streamed from his face, and when at last
he saw the welcome light of home, and
reached the front door. he fell exhausted
from fright and the mad race over rough
and hilly country.
1t is reported that the lion was the pet
of rich lady in Alabama, ard that she
has offered a reward of S2U0 for its cap
ture. Report also has it that any lady
can easily capture it, as it is accustomed
to the touch of lady's hand. So far no
lady has volunteered her service for at
tempting so risky a trick In the mean
time the good folk hereabout are kept in
a constant state Of terror, and chickens
are disappearing with alarming regular
