Scaldcd by a Volcano.

From the ST. Louis Globe-Democrat.
San Augustine Peak, forty miles east Of
Las Cruces, N. NJ, is in a state of eruption.
week ago last Tuesday Day King and
Lige Davis, who were out upon the noun
tain, heard rumble in the earth, which was
followed soon by distinct explosion. About
half a mile from them on the north side Of
the peak a large granite boulder scared
aloft and fell with a crash among the loose
rocks. The flight of the boulder was fol-
lowed by a puff of steam and ashes. The
family of Mr.. Hufford also saw the eruption.
The next day Mr. Bergernot went to the
place where the explosion occurred and
found a depression partly filled with ashes,
from which the boulder had been elected
The snow was gone for some distance
fectly dry. Mr.. Bergernot soon became
aware that his feet were uncomfortably
warm and that steam was going up his
trousers and scalding his legs and fearing
a repetition of the volcanic eruption, he
FASTENED away from the spot.

They Are Poor In Quality, Few In
Number and Circulation Limited.
From the Hartford Times.
The founder of the newspaper in Turkey
was a Frenchman, Alexander Blacque, who
in 1926 published in Smyrna lie Spectator
de HOrient, and afterward the Courier de
Smyrne. In 1881 NJ. Blacque went to Con-
stantinopie, where he edited LIE Monteur
Oootoman, an official paper under auspices
of the Sultan Mahmud In 1884 appeared
the first paper printed in the Turkish I'M
der the special and exclusive direction of
the historian of the state, ESSad-effendi.
In 1860 there were in Constantinople four
teen newspapers, two Turkish, four French,
four Italian, one Greek, one Armenian, one
Bulgarian and one Servian. In 1876, before
the last Greek war, there were in Turkey
over sixty newspapers, tWenty-one in
French, sixteen in Turkish, twelve in new
Greek, ten in Armenian, one in German,
and that one was soon discontinued.
In 1850, Notwithstanding war calamities
and considerable editorial diminution, the
total number of newspapers in Turkey in
creased to 12l-in European Turkey, seven
ty-four; in Asiatic Turkey, forty-seven.
Among the newspapers printed in Turk
ish, the following are worthy of notice:
Saadet Servet and Hakikat. These are
everyday political papers, while Tarik is
a semi-official paper. receiving the news
directly from 1diskiosque (sultan's palace.
The most read political papers are pub
lished in French, such as La Turquie,
STEAMBOAT, Moriteur Oriental and the East

A WELL-TRAINED RAT.
He Keeps the House Free of Mice and
Plays the Violin Fairly Well.

He Keeps the House Free of Mice and
Plays the Violin Fairly Well.
From the Philadelphia Times.
1t is a well-known fact that rats AMI
mice do rot infest house at the same
time Working upon this hint as to the
nature of rodents, N.K.Laureson of Nicks-
burg Miss, has adopted scheme by which
he keeps himself rid of both pests. This
he accomplishes by capturing young rat
and training him to catch mice. This sin
gular mouser, whose name, by the way,
is Car, is doubtless the most successful
one on record. He has been taught to
pcunce upon a mouse on short order, with
out fear and without favor, and he shows
no mercy. OF course, he can follow the
mice into close quarters, and never has
been known to lose his quarry. Strange to
relate, large rats have given the house the
go-by also, seeming to understand that the
place belongs to Gar, and that there must
be no encroachment upon his prerogatiVe.
Laureson is very fond of his queer pet,
and has taught him many interesting
tricks. Among others, he has trained him
to handle a bow, and with miniature
violin Car manages to scrape the strings
In a way that is not unmusical OF course,
it has been impossible to teach him really
to play piece, but sitting up on his hind
legs with his fiddle grasped in his Tiny
claws, Car produces a sort of nalf -Screech-
ing sound that is altogether weird and
fantastic. LaureSon is himself a ViolnlSt
of no mean order, and Gar likes nothing
better than to sit on his masters knee and
listen to his playing.

Condition of the Water.
MCKINLEY IN KANSAS.
Support of Allison and Reed Growing
There.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
TOPEKA, Kan, December 49, 1895.
Three months ago Kansas was conceded
to William Mckinley for President To-
day it looks as If he will have to be con-
tented with such scattering support as his
friends can secure on an uninstructed dele
CATION. year ago Gov. Mckinley could
have had an instructed delegation from
Kansas without an effort Since that time
gradual change has taken place, until
now it is difficult to determine which of the
presidential candidates is strongest with
the republicans of the state.
The members of the congressional dele
cation have done much to change this SEN
for President. During the recent cam
paisn they sowed the seed that may give
to the Maine statesman the majority OF
the delegates from Kansas. Congressman
Curtis, Congressman Broderick and others
have teen outspoken for Reed, and an or
gan,zation has been effected in many coun-
ties which will trouble the Mckinley men
when the local county conventions are held.
The present state administration is re-
sponsible for much of the antagonism
| toward Gov. Mckinley. Last year and in
1894, when the governor visited Kansas,
Chairman Leland of the state committee
escorted him through the state and invited
as guests only few of his most intimate
friends. On those trips, it is alleged, Lee
land promised the Kansas delegation to
/ the Ohio man. This greatly angered many
republicans who did not have opportu-
nifty to meet the governor, and the result
is many prominent men in the party are
lighting him in order to rebuke Leland and
Gov. Morrill,, who. in interviews six
| months ago, said Mckinley would have
Kansas without effort. Leland is also the
Kansas member of the national committee.
The feeling is so strong that he will proba-
bly, be defeated for reelection. In fact,
he will have big fight to get into the
convention as a delegate from mis- district.
1t looks now as ii ex-Gov. Thomas A. Os-
born would head the Kansas delegation
and succeed Leland as member of national
committee.
There is growing sentiment for Senator
Allison in Kansas. He has many friends
in the state Thousands of the early set
tiers of Kansas came from Iowa and they
are for Allison to a man. Then Iowa is a
neighboring state and the republicans feel
that with Allison as candidate the party
would hold its full vote in the west and as
sure triumph in every state west of the
Mississippi river. If sentiment continues
to grow for the Iowa man he will secure
the most of the delegation after the first
ballot. His friends, as we'll as those of
Speaker Reed, are fighting for an unin-
structed delegation, and the Mckinley men,
while contending for delegation that
shall be friendly to their choice, have
abandoned the hope of instructions and
will be glad to get a share of the votes
They will not ask for a solid delegation,
nor will they attempt to secure instruc-
| tions for In doing so they might loose ALL

Special Correspondence of The Evea..ng Star.
ST LOUIS, DeGemher Is, 1895.
There is growing feeling thrt the democ-
racy of St. Louis is not going to overexert
itself in an effort to secure the national con-
Ventlon of the party. It, isr asserted with
some show of truth, that the. administratio
wing of the organization, headed by ex-Gov-
ernor Francis, would prefer'ts see the con-
vention go somewhere eIse-sa There are rea-
sons for this which the free, silver men are
not slow to magnify, or at least to make the
most of. The farther west'the convention is
held the better will be the showing made by
the silver extremists. For example, Bland
home congressional district is only five
hours ride from this city. If the conven-
ton should be held here every able bodied
democrat in it would attend. and most of
them would shout for free silver That is
perhaps the only section in the state where
the financial issue is still dominating one
The rest of the state seems disposed to
let the subject of currency take a brea TIL
ing spell. BANDS personality and rugged
honesty mo one has ever doubted his sin
cerftD will keep it to the fore there for at
least another year, or until after the next
presidential election.
II the convention should be held in New
York or any eastern CITY, it is argued the
contingent from Laclede and surrounding
Missouri counties would keep away, for the
good reason that as a whole ii would not
have money enough to do otherwise
The anti-administration faction in the
state is all worked up over the opposition
that has developed to the convention The
Stone partisans declare that it is due solely
to cowardice. that their enemies are afraid
to give them an opportunity to show their
strength.
In the meantime all is not entirely har-
monious over the spoils incident to the con-
vention already secured. A large number
of commercial organizations were taxed
heavily to aid in getting the convention,
and now som, of them assert that the
Business Mems League has "hogged" all
the tickets.
The league is made up of representative
business men of both parties They were
largely represented on the committee that
went to Washington, and they made it a
condition that they were to have a certain
number of tickets. These they propose to
distribute where they will do the most good
among their customers in the southwest

Storm Bulletin.
Prof Moore, chief of the weather bureau,
has just issued storm bulletin covering the
Atlantic coast storms December 9-12 and
12-15. The violence of these storms is shown
by the following rates of velocity of the
wind occurring within these dates viz: &C
miles an hour at HatteraS; IS at Block Is
land; 81 at Nantucket; IS at Kittyhawk, and
Sc at Block Island.
A total of 3S5 vessels, from ocean steam
ers 10 hshing smacks, valued, with their
cargoes, a. nearly S7,5OO.O8O, the report
says, seem to have been detained in port
by the weather bureau storm warnings
From the experience of the vessels that en-
countered the storms an immense saving

have resulted from the needing of these
