The most crowded burial place in
the world is Warka, the ancient Erech
of Chaldea. Here collins are piled on
top of each other to the depth of from
80 to 60 feet. The most crowded Gene

burial place at Prague, where the hui

CONSISTENCY THOU ART A JEWEL.

To a great many people it seems
strange that SO many newsboys and
boot blacks graduate into criminals,
yet the fact should not surprise any
one.
1t is no more possible to stop boys
moral growth than it is to stop the
physical, and to be out on the street
from IA to Is hours per day, getting
most of the few pennies they earn from
thieves, gamblers, saloon men, and
houses Of ill repute, or in a word, from
the criminal classes, how is it possible
for a boy to become anything but a
criminal. You will say that every city
of any considerable size has news
boys home. with a christian woman
presiding over it. Soup-ticket charity
never did stimulate a noble thought or
action in boy or man.
To save these boys from becoming
criminals, they must be taken Off
the street and placed with private
families, where they are in full sympa-
thy with them, and where they are per-
mitted to share all joys and sorrows,
as one of the family. But of course
the milk of human kindness does not
enter, to such large degree, into the
composition of the 18th century christ
ian. Thousands OF ultra respectable
people, church members in good stand
ing, people that never were guilty. of
an unlawful action in their lives, live
today who never endeared themselves
to their fellowman by good word or
deed. They give cast-off suit, or bon
net with the feathers taken off, to some
charitable institution and then pat
themselves on the back because other
people are not as charitably inclined.
They live and die on strictly business
principles and expect to go to Heaven
the same way. Yet these people are
the first to cry out "send him to prison"
when boy under the above circum-
stances goes wrong; accordingly he is
pronounced an outcast, which robs
him of all worth striving and liv-
ing for. 1t reminds me of the story
that perhaps all of you have heard,
about the sailor who went into a
secondhand store and bought a coat
for SO cents. The next day he came
back and shaking his fist at Uncle
Moses, said: Here you Sheeny, what
do you mean by selling me a coat that's
: lousy" "Vell mine frendt, replied
/ Moses, did you exspect to get humming
birds NIT dot goat for so cents ?" VIC.

he was driven back but not defeated
though his opponents Outnumbered
him two to one. The sight in the rear,
of the ambulance, surgeons at WORK

and not to stop until they were annihi-

was fought. Prior to this the Servians
had carried every thing before them in
the mountains and on the Danube.
The Bulgarians, being fore warned, had
spent years in building redOubtS and
fortifying Plevna. The position Occu-
pied by the Prince was well chosen as

Prince, in the meanwhile, pouring vol
ley after volley into the enemy'S ranks
from artillery and infantry. The Ser
vans retreated in confusion, suffering
loss of 5000 in killed and wounded,
leaving the heights of Stivnitza in pos
session of the Prince. This was the
beginning of a week of successes for
the Bulgarians. King Milan, ever con-
fident of victory, had made no provis-
ion for extra clothing, his troops en-
during fearful hardships and suffering
from cold. Forced to retreat tc his
commissariat, broken down, he was
obliged to bring away his hat-starved
army as best he could. The Prince

SERVIAN- -BULGARIAN WAR.
A Rrief Sketch of the Famous Battle
Between King Milan and Prince
Alexander.

The Servians are gifted, warm
hearted and promising race of people;
they are mixture of Italians, Greek
and Turk: they have fondness for
war which they began on their neigh
bors in the ninth century. Every man
in Servia, about 100000 is a soldier.
The women, who are rugged hardy and
comely, do all the labor during war.
The roll of drums and the marching of
the men, led by their king, MILAN y is
inspiring. Over the Balkans the fields
and hillsideS are crowded with the
soldiers of Bulgaria, led by Prince Alex
andar. Groups of warriors are listen
ing to war songs and the recitlng of the
poetry of their country, made famous
by Lord Lytton's English translation.
In marching they chant these songs
while powerful horses drag their cannon
up the steps of Dragoman Pass. They
are a suspicious, cunning race, very
patriotic and devoutly attached to their
Prince, who was of German decent, be-
ing a cousin of the Grand Duke of
Hesse. After the treaty of Berlin he
was chosen leader of a million people
with war footing of $4,000. There

which included heavy deck load of lum-
Der, live stock and petroleum, shifted SO
badly that she failed to right herself.
Two Mexican schooners, the Albina and
and Josephine, and the American schooner
Hayes passed the Colima on Sunday night
and weathered the same storm which over
whelmed her, and reached ManzanilIo
on Monday afternoon with all sails reefed,
but not damaged in the least.
The crews of these vessels agree with
the rescued passengers in blaming the
stevedores in San Francisco, who stored
the cargo SO badly as to make the catas-
trophe possible.

Barracouta had found a raft bearing six
men.
The names of the men saved were an
nounced as follows:
Cabin-John N. Thornton, J. E. Chill
berg, Louis Fl. Peters, - Vindor.
Seamen-Fred Johnson, Reyserto Con-
zales.
The man Vindor is said to have boarded
the steamer at Mazatlan.
1t was also stated that the wreck was
caused by the overlooking of the steamer
and by an injudicious stowage of the
cargo. This was taken to mean that the
steamer, straining in a heavy swell, had

agent of the Pacific Mail Company to in
quire for further tidings, A little knot of
newspaper men pre-empted seats outside
the railing, but otherwise the company
offices at 425 Market street took on an ordi-
nary everyday appearance and business
was transacted just as if over hundred
lives and noble ship had not disappeared
in the waves. There was none of the sub
dued crowd, the wan and tear-stained
faces of twenty-four hours before. Bitter
anguish had given place to dull heartache
and hard dry sobs to the tears of the be-
reaved.
On the streets before the newspaper Of
fees little knots of men and women read
the meager bulletins and turned away
with a muttered curse for the "coffin

the later hours that the officials of the
steamship company had learned the par
ticulars of the disaster and were withhold
ing them in the hope that more survivors

put his ship about in order to return to
Manzanillo if possible, but three large seas
struck her in this awkward position in
rapid succession, and with the third she
went clear over and sank to the bottom
very quickly stern first.
When she first listed, the passengers all
thought she would right herself again, as
she had been laboring and rolling heavily
for some time before that, and so nearly all
of them remained in the state rooms and
saloons, and thus were engulfed with her.
No lifeboats were launched, according to
this latest version of the story, as there
was no time for it, but those who saved
themselves did so by clinging to portions
of lumber, to spars and especially to the
liferafts until the next morning, when the
steamer San Juan of the same line, bound
north, which had been hove to in the same
storm for seven hours, discovered and res
cued them.

CAUSES OF SH|PWREcK.
Vessels Often Go Down at Sea
Without a Colli-
sion.
Various Theories as to the Manner
In Which the Colima
Was Sunk.

When vessel is said to have foundered
it is understood that she has gone down in
the open sea, and that her loss has been
occasioned not by collision with a rock or
reef or others of her kind, but to the fury
OF the wind and water or to some inherent
defect or accident to herself.
Often the causes of the sinking of ves-
sci is due to her own motive power, her
engines and boilers, for the explosion of
the one or the breaking of the other is apt
to open hole through the bottom plates
and admit the sea. Such was the case Of
the City of Paris, one of the big trans-Atlan-
tic liners, some years ago. She was speed
ing through the water at nearly twenty
Knots, when the main connecting-rod of
her engine, the rod which transforms the
direct movement of the piston-rod to the
retiprocating motion of the crankpin,
broke in the middle. The rest of the en-
CINE continued its motion, and the tremen-
dous casting, still attached to its crankpin,
was whirled round and round until it had
torn a hole in the bottom of the vessel
large enough almost for carriage gate
way The Paris and the 600 people who
were on board of here were only saved be-
cause of her watertight compartments.
As it was she sank to her rail, and after
some days of fine weather reached port in
safety.
There are those who adhere to the opinion
that something Of this sort has happened
