ON TOP OF MOUNT ARAFAT.
Nothing but Snow Covers the Peak Where
The Ark Was Noorcd.

Mount Ararat has two tops, a few
hundred yards apart, sloping on the
eastern and western extremities into
rather prominent abutments, and sepa-
rated by a snow valley or depression from
80 to 100 feet in depth" Thus. in The
Century, write Messrs. Allen and Sach-
tlebcn, the s<so young Americans who
made bicycle tour round the world.
The eastern top, on which we were
standing. was quite extensive, and 30 to
40 feet lower than its western neighbor.
Both tops are hummocks on the huge
dome Of Ararat, like the humps on the
back of a camel, on neither one of which
is there vestige of anything but snow.
There remained just as little trace Of
the crosses left by Parrot and Chodzko
as of the ark itself. We remembered the
pictures we had seen in our nursery
books, which represented this mountain
top covered with green grass, and Noah
stepping ont of the ark in the bright,
warm sunshine, before the receding
waves, and now we looked around and
saw this very spot covered with perpet-
ual snow. Nor did we see any evidence
"hdtcNcl VI lOTiutT eSlStlny crater, eX-
cept perhaps the snow filled depression
We have just mentioned. There was
nothing about this perpetual snowfeld,
and the freezing atmosphere that was
chilling us to tine bone to remind us
that we were on the top of an extinct
volcano that once trembled with the con-
WILSON'S Of subterranean heat.
1.-The view from this towering height
was UNNECESSARILY extensive and almost
too grand. All detail was lost-all color,
all outline. Even the surrounding noun
tains seemed to be but the excrescent
ridges Of the plain. Then. too, we could
catch only occasional glimpses. as the
clouds shifted to and fro. At one time
they opened up beneath US and revealed
the Aras valley, with its glittering rib
bon of silver at an abysmal depth below.
Now and then we could descry the black
volcanic peaks of Ali Chez 40 miles
away to the northwest, and on the south
west the low mountains that obscured
the town of Bayazid. Of the Caucasus.
the mountains about Erzerum on the
west and Lake Van on the south and
even of the Caspian sea. all of which are
said to be in Ararat's horizon, we could
see absolutely nothing"

LONDON. July 2s.-A dispatch received
here from Lloyd's agent at Shanghai.
China, confirms the announcement ex-
clusively cabled to the Associated Press
that war between China and Japan has
been declared aud fighting is said to have
already begun. The immediate cause Of
the declaration of war is said to he the
fact that the japanese attacked the Chi
nese transports conveying troops to
Corea. In this engagement at least one
Chinese transport was sunk by Japanese
cruiser. But it would now seem that the
fighting between the Chinese ard Japan
csc warships was much more serious than
was ut first announced. for it is rumored
in EnglishChinese circles here that the
Chinese have already suffered very heavy
loss. and it is believed that a number of
Chinese ships have been sunk by the jap

DEATH FROM A CATS BITE.

walter Allen Lucas Dies Of Hydrophobis
At Chicago.
CHICAGO. July cs.-walter Allen Lucas
died OF hydrophobla at the Presbyterian
hospital. Hydrophobia resulting from
the bite Of kitten is so unusual that
doubt rs to the cause might well exist
were it not that such distinguished
authority as DR.. James H. Etheridge and
the famous hydrophobia specialist, An
tonic I.agorio, leave no doubt on the sub
tect in the expressed result of their dag
noses.
Seven weeks ago Mr.. Lucas while play
ing with kitten was bitten on the thumb
by his treacherous playmate and at once
consulted his physician, who advised spe-
cial treatment. This advice was un-
needed, as Mr.. Lucas was busy, and, al
lowing the supposed trivial occurrence to
slip from his mind. nothing further was
thought Of il until last Monday, when q
pain in the bitten hand and a tingling,
itchy sensation of the shoulder, accom-
panied by an unaccountably peculiar SEN
sation in the throat which prevented
swallowing, aroused the concern of Mrs.
Lucas, who lost no time in summoning
medical aid.

The Feeling ut Ticn Tsin.

TEN TsrN, China, July IS. The gravity
OF the situation is fully realized here, now
that hostilities between China and Japan
have commenced While no formal dec
laration of war, according to the usual
diplomatic forms, has been made ut either
TOXIC or Pekin, the governments of both
countries recognize that an actual state of
war exists and more collisions between
the forces of the two countries are ex-
pected hourly. Considerable anxisty is
expressed here as to the result of the war.
The general opinion seems to be that
while Japan may be looked upon rs like
ly to score the first victories, the Chinese
troops will eventually drive the japanese
out of Corea, even if millions of men have
to be sent to the front TO do so
