Care of the Reed Organ.

organ. The tongue of reed is vi.

he draws the reeds to clean them can
quickly tell the favorite keys the own

Peace Commission Sails.

New York, Sept. 1S.-The United
States peace commissioners sailed at
2 o'clock yesterday afternoon on the
Cunarder Campania for Paris, where
they are to meet the commissioners
of Spain and agree upon treaty Of
peace. Former Secretary of State
William R. Day and United States
Senator William r. Frye arrived
Friday evening. Senator eastman
X. Davis and Whitelaw Reid were
here already, and Senator George
Gray arrived yesterday.
Commissioner Day was astir early
in the morning at the Hotel Manhat-
tan. His first visitor was WhitelaW
Reid, who arrived at $50 o'clock.
Then Senator Frye, who had slept al
the Fifth Avenue hotel, went up tc
Judge Days apartments. 1t began
to look as though the commissioners
had agreed to hold an informal meet
ing at the rooms of Mr.. Day. But
this the commissioners denied.

sion, said: 81 suppose you would
like to know exactly what are the
conditions of the treaty and what we
think about it, together with our i'm
pressions of Paris and of the Spanish
peace commissioners. But, seriously
we had a conference with the cabinet
before leaving Washington, at least
all of us but Senator Gray We
will hold our first meeting this after
noon on board the steamship We

inet with reference to the terms OF
the treaty, and | believe that there
will be practically no change after

missioners."
"Do you expect much opposition

missioners 7"

The Big Storm.

London, Sept. 16.-Advices re-
ceived here show that the first repor Is
of the destruction of life and property
by the hurricane which swept over
Barbados, st. Vincent, ST. Lucia
and other islands of the Windward
group were not exaggerated. Indeed,
appalling as the details are, they fail
to present an adequate idea of the ter
rible havoc wrought by the storm.
The estimates of the loss of life
given in previous reports are believed
to be far below the actual number
killed, while the number of persons
rendered homeless is much greater
than was at first stated. The aggre-
gate damage to property cannot be
estimated even approxim ately, as the
winds, rainfall, tidal waves and land
slides have completely devastated the
country.
1t is believed that the plumber of
dead in the town of Kingston, the
capital of the island of ST. Vincent,
which was totally destroyed, is much
greater than the 800 reported pre-
viously, while the number of home
less and starving persons in the island
largely exceeds 10000. A. dispatch
to Lloyd's from Barbados says that
when the storm broke there the Brit
ish man-of- Alert steamed out to
sea to escape being wrecked.
The British ship Loauda, the Amer
lean bark Lapland and the smaller
craft, E Grace, Lynwood and Love.
dahl, were blown out to sea and prob
ably wrecked.
Further losses are reported, princi-
pally among the coast craft.
Further dispatches received by
Lloyd's say that three large ships are
ashore on the Windward islands and
many small ones. Communication
with Barbados is now completely
cut off.
Guandaloupe suffered heavily from
1
the storm .and numerous destructive
landslides. Nineteen persons are

People starving.

Kingston, St. Vincent, Sept. 49,
Details received show that an unparal.
leled destruction Of lite and property
took place here. Out of a population
of Al, 900, 800 we're killed und 10000
were injured and rendered homeless.
Besides this, owing to the complete
destruction of the provisions they are
all starving. The island has been alb.
soluiely Quilted by the wind and floods
from the mountains in addition to the
waves along the coast. There has been
great loss to shipping along the track
Of the cyclone.
Relief funds are being raised in re

Of st. Vincent, where all descriptions
of food and clothing and necessares

Race for Life in a Tunnel.


The story Of an unhappy bridegroom,
whose hair grew white in a single
morning, and that the morning of his
marriage, is reported from Zigrad in
Hungary.
Mitru Popa, born In Teregova, son
Of small farmer, and affianced to q
daughter of a prosperous citizen OF Il
grad, recently started for Zigrad, there
to wed and bring lone his bride. The
place can be reached in two hours by
the mountain road. There was, how
ever, short cut; 1t led through the
railway tunnel with a single line Of
rail. Popa laid ear to the ground and
listened. AS there was not the slight
est vibration, he took courage and
ventured into the dark passage. Here,
the report goes on, he had been stumb-
ling along as best he could, when,
after ten minutes passed in the total
darkness, and being, as he Judged,
near the center of the tunnel, he heard
the distant rumbling Of an approach
ing train.
The noise grew louder behind him
and Popa ran; louder still, and Popa
raced 1t was a via dolorosa, with
the small point Of daylight far of
amid the darkness, and If he could win
It then 1t meant life, safety and bride,
but the thunder Of the train grew
ever nearer. Fortunately the gradient
was steep one, and the express was
called express by courtesy only, and
the race between the man and death
terminated at the tunnels outlet, the
man winning by about his own
length.
The mercifully sluggish "schnell-
zug" passed into the daylight as the
bridegroom fell prostrate on the bank.
When he had started he had dark
brown hair; when he arrived at the
brides house it was as white as the
brides veil. The lady, however, ac-
cepted him ON the somewhat dubious
grounds "that the hair would come all
right in time. and that the injury was
covered by Insurance."

San Juan, Island of Porto Rico,

Under the armstice they could not

Land Force of No Avail.

The peace establishments of the
French, German and Russian armies
are at least 1,850,000 men and per-
haps, may be 100000, all highly
organized. Their possible war estab.
lishments might amount to totals from
5000, 200 to 100000 of men. On
the other hand, the peace establishment
OF the British empire amounts TO L..
OOO,O0 of men-a part of which is
equally well, and another part not
equally well, organized with the Eu-
ropean armies. The possible war es
tablisment Of the empire has never been
seriously estimated. The peace es alb.
lishment of the United States is under
10000 men, doubtless well organized.
Like the British people, the Americans
have never reckoned their possible war
establishment, but evidently they could,
if so minded, raise it to mighty
strength. But neither British nor A
merican leaders will, under the exist
ing circumstances, consider land force
as dominant factor in any worldwide
problem. Their thoughts will mainly
be turned to sea force. They will
inquire whether the sea

ton would OF would not compare fav-

CAN BE CUT LIKE CHEESE,
This is the Nature of the Building Stone
Used In Bermuda.

This is the Nature of the Building stone
Used In Bermuda.
Nature has made 1t easy to build
houses in Bermuda. The entire group
of islands Is made up of coral rock,
so that every man can have quarry
in his back yard II he cares to dig
deep enough. This stone when first
cut is soft and white, so that 1t 'cuts
like cheese" like the wood OF the
famous "one-hoss shay" and can be
got out in square blocks with an ordi-
nary handsaw. On exposure to the
air, however, 1t soon becomes dark and
hard enough to break the teeth out Of
the saw that cuts 1t SO easily from it's
bed.
AS there 10 no lumber in Bermuda
except that which Is brought from
Canada at considerable expense, stone
is used for nearly the entire house.
The walls are laid of blocks about
eight inches by six, and two feet in
length. Window stills and door jambs
are also sawed out of stone in the prop
er shape, and even the roof is covered
with stone shingles, which are made
by simply setting block Of soft, fresh
stone on edge and saving 1t into thin
slabs. Both roof I'd walls have to be
kept whitewashed, or the stone would
cramble away, hard as 1t finally be-
comes; but with this precaution 1t
lasts long time. There is an old
coral-stone house on Harrington
Sound which is considerably over two
hundred years old.
Coral islands are formed by the
coral polyps, or insects, which build
up reefs to about the level Of the sea
and then die. On the rough surface
Of these reefs seaweed clings. The
wind and the waves work together to
grind up theft substance and pile it
in heaps of sand, which finally solidi-
aes into the rock which can be cut SO
easily.
The freshly broken stone makes adj
mlrable road material. Even the rub
Der tire of bicycle will crush piece
of 1t fiat, and the rain soon solidifies
1t in that shape, so that the whole
roadbed, new stone and old together,
becomes like smooth track cut in
solid rock.-Philadelphia Times.
