The philosophers who have figured on
the condition Of things at the earth 3
center give opinions which vary widely.
Some think that the earth's interior Is
composed Of white hot molten matter.
Others are Of the opinion that the pres
sure is so great that all substances have
been condensed beyond our powers of
conception. Dr.. Young goes SO far as to
say that q block of steel 10 feet square
would be pressed into a block only .
feet square if taken 1000 miles below
the earth g surface.

AMERICANS AS MUSICIANS.

NINE. Calve Says They Havo the Chaxoe-
teristics Of the Conquering Race.
Mime. Emma Calve contributes pa
per on the "Conquering Race In Music"
to The Ladies' Home Journal, in which
abe specially addresses students OF vocal
music. She tells Of the training re-
ouired for the operatic and the concert
stage, the impersonation Of character,
the value Of suggestions. etc., and pays
this tribute to Americans: "The Amer
leans have, it seems to me. In the Held
of music, and especially in the field OF
vocal music, all Of the characteristics
of the conquering race. They are pos
sessed naturally of the most exquisite
voices, which, when properly cultivated
and trained, are almost unrivaled. They
have indomitable energy, perseverance
and pluck. They stop at nothing and are
deferred by no trouble and prevented
by 10 obstacle.
Poverty, weariness, exertiOn. hard
work-none of these living specters
which alright and terrify the average
art worker has terrors for them. Their
physique and their temperament seem
made for toll and to surmount discour-
agement, and the success which they
are daily achieving. in the field OF both
operatic and concert singing, is testimo-
ny to their natural fitness for accom-
plishment and to their ability to excel.
They seem, in fact, to be most lavishly
fitted by nature for the parts they are
assuming. To these gifts of voice, enez-
gy, pluck and perseverance they fire.
quently add a beauty Of face and grace
.. form and movement which the pub
lie recognizes as most important factors
in the success of the singers career.
They have. too, the temperament which
makes great artists and great actresses,
the artistic feeling which has for its
standard perfection and which is sat-
isfied with nothing less"
His First Story.
A certain author, now we'll known to
fame and fortune, once in the "battle
for bread" wrote q wild Indian story
for northern story paper. That was IL
years ago, and to the story he gave his
real name He received fat check for
it. but year after year went by and-the
story never appeared. 1t finally passed
from his remembrance, untS the other
day, when ho received letter from the
publishers informing him that it would
shortly put in III appearance in serial
form That made the author nervous,
and he forthwith sent the following tel
egram:
Suppress story and return manu-
script and will pay three times amount
Of original check"
The publishers replied:
Cant do it. We know q good thing
when we have it. The story 10 in your
best vein.''
Letter after letter, telegram after tele-
gram passed, but no. he didn't have
money enough to buy that story. So he
has written to all his friends and critics
and has explained the circumstances
and now awaits as cheerfully as possible

SCHOOL BoARD.-The monthly meet

man, barley, Carne, Harrison, and tie
Superintendent. The chairman being
absent Mr.. Mankin was called to the
chair.
Several bills for repairs and supplies
were ordered to be paid.
The Superintendent reported that
the schools were all doing well; there
had been some INSTRUMENTATION in the
coIored schools but it had been correct
ed without reference to the committee
on complaints and gievances; some
of the schools had been closed
part of the day during the recent cold
weather. He also stated that as the
22nd of February is legal holiday the
schools would be closed on that day.
The Superintendent presented cir
cular from Mrs. Ball, Vice Regent Of
Virginia of the Mount Vernon Ladies
Association, addressed to the pupils Of
Virginia's schools, requesting the pupils
on Washington's birthday to contribute
towards fitting up room at Nit. Yer

matter to the pupils was left to the dis
erection of the Superintendent, who, it is
understood, will comply with the re-
quest of Mrs. Ball.

MAT KERsEY.-George De CRATE
who, he says, has recently seen service
in Maceo's army, was in this city last
night. He will go to Washington,
where he has friends. De Crate stated
that he had served in the Seventh
United States Cavalry, at Fort Leaven'
worth and Fort Smelling, until July 16,
1895, when he accompanied an expedi-
ton from New York, joined the Cuban
forces and fought under Maceo until
the general was seriously wounded. De
Crate insists that he has seen Maceo
since the reported killing and believes
that the general is still alive. He serv-
ed III the army until captured during an
engagement near Pinar del Rio, and
was taken prisoner and confined in the
military hospital at Santa Clara. He
was kept in close confinement, except
during the hours of mass, and on Jam
uary II, while attending services, he
succeeded in making his escape. When
asked if he had ever heard of a young
man named Kersey, who was believed
to be confined in Spanish prison, De
Crate replied that he knew a young
man named Matt Kersey, an engineer
in the Seventeenth Infantry of Maceo's
army. He had seen Kersey on the
day prior to his escape. He is positive
that he left Kersey confined in the hos
pital at Santa Clara January II. De
Crate, in another interview, said he
worked in brewery while in Cuba.
Matthew Kersey sailed from Balti-
more more than year ago as chief
engineer of the tug Mascot, which was
supposed to have been wrecked off the
the coast of Cuba, and all hands were
reported lost. Subsequently informa-
ton was received by Mrs. Kersey,
mother of the young man, that he had
been taken prisoner by the Spanish
and confined in prison, but the infor-
nation could not be verified by the
State Department.
Mr.. Kersey's parents and wife were
advised last night of the statement
made by De Crate. Gen. Lee has the
investigation as to the discovery OF the
whereabouts of Mr.. Kersey in charge.
REGENTS letters from Gems. Lee and
Weyler are to the effect that they have
issued instructions that all the Spanish
prisons and hospitals be searched to
fud Kersey
The statement by De Crate that he
saw Maceo after it was known that the
latter had been killed throws discredit
on his other statements.
