A Volcanoes New Lease of Life.

One OF the lesser mountains OF Chilli.
whose summit Is nearly a thousand feet
lower than that Of our Mount Washington.
has been the talk OF that country for year
past. Without a note OF warning II de-
veloped into very lively volcano. and its
eruptions have destroyed much property.
including the humble homes OF many farm
ers living near its base. This sudden out
burst was all the more surprising because
no one had ever suspected that Mount Cal
bueo was capable OF such behavior. Many
people denied that Calbuco was a volcano.
The Dieclonarlo Geografico de Chile" said
that neither in its structure nor in its ap-
pearance did the mountain show any evil
dences OF volcanic origin. 1t was neces-
sary. however. to revise the popular idea
when. In 1872. DowNTos aud CHRISTIE found
at the summit q large and much dilapidated
crater No one In historic times ever saw
the slightest evidence OF volcanic activity.
and so Calbuco was in recent years. re-
garded as a volcano that centuries ago had
lost every spark Of vitality.
On Feb. "a. 1893. Dr. HANS STEFFEN. while
about twenty miles north Of Puerto Mont.
a little south OF Az s. lat, observed white
clouds on the eastern slope OF CalbucO. He
thought nothing OF 1t until the next day
when he saw conclusive proof that those
clouds were part Of phenomena showing
beyond doubt that the long-lost activity
Of the volcano had been reRained
From that time until Oct. 2s. the date OF

barely escaped with their lives. and saw all
their property destroyed. Their harvest
was ruined. their land made worthless by
the volcanic sand that covered It. and their
cattle were killed.
Even long before October the region OF
which the little mountain is the centre
had been rendered almost uninhabitable.
For miles around, the forests had been de-
stroyed by showers Of hot ashes. One day
there was q rain Of red-hot stones about the
size OF an egg that did considerable dam
age. The rich meadows In the river valleys
were covered with sand and ashes. Early
in the series Of eruptions the snow on one
side OF Calbuco was melted in few hours
by the heated material scattered over It,
The result was food In one OF the rivers
that destroyed much property. Atno time
have any fire or lava flows been observed.
but severe earthquakes, which frequently
accompany volcanic outbursts. have not
been lacking.
II Is rare that volcano, which is known
to have been perfectly quIeecent for CEN
turtles. bursts into new life. Calbuco has
been making up for lost time. and the set
tiers who. In fancied security. built their
homes around it's base, have been bereft OF
all their possessions. At last accounts 1t
was probable that the Government would
place them on new lands with sufficient
outfit to enable them, under favorable cir
cumstances, to make fresh start In life.

The Natural Result of Populi,m.

The war into which Governor BEN Till

ment Of hayseed socialism. This proposes
TO benefit the people. or rather the fsrming
population. by means OF special legislation
comforting extraordinary powers upon the
state. Though nominally the ruling fac
tion Of the South Carolina Democracy. the
Tillmsnites really belong TO Ocala and
Omaha. They are Socialists and not Demo-
Gratis. The State Dispenssry law was at
once an experiment In socialism and a
means Of political patronage by reason
of the new officers necessary to its execu-
ton. 1t also represented In general the
feeling OF the country districts, where the
Tillmsnites are strong. and was opposed
by the towns. where the old Democracy lie
still powerful. 1t punished the pride Of the
conservatives 1t increased the political
power of the Tillmantes. Above all. II sub
eidized the State. Finally. the State tries
10 carry its monopoly Of the liquor busi-
psss to the point Of searching private resi-
dcnces. where there is no question OF illegal
exposure OF sale. There Is O revolt. OF

not submit without resistance to such arbi-
trary and un1ustinable inQulsitlon on the
