Washington, December 23.-Orders
were sent this afternoon to the COM
mander of the Bennington, Capt. Taus-
sig, to proceed at once to take pos
session in the name of the United
States government of Wake Island, ly-
ing in latitude ION, longitude 166E. 1t
is distant about 1000 miles from Nihau,
the westernmost of the Hawaiian is
lands, and 1900 miles east from Guam.
1t is almost in direct line between
these possessions of the United States
and is admirably adapted for use as a
station for a Pacific cable to connect
the Philippines with Hawaii and the
United States 1t is about three miles
in length and encloses a lagoon of salt
water The average height of the is
land is eight feet above high tide. 1t
is scarcely capable inself of sustaining
life, but it is expected that a cable
station can be maintained without dif-
ficulty by the erection of a condenser
to supply fresh water.
Wake Island is American territory,
for in 1851 Admiral Wilkes surveyed
the place and asserted title. 1t is not
inhabited.

THE POPE IS WELL.
Appeared in Excellent Health Yester-
day-Discussion of Church Affairs.

Rome, December 23.-The Pope to-
day, at the reception of the Christmas
GREETINGS of the cardinals and other pre-
lates, appeared to be in excellent
health. Replying to their congratula-
tons, he referred to the sinister events
of 1898, and said it was high time the
governments of Europe united to stop
'unheard of outrages and savage eXter-
limitations" But, the Pontiff added,
this could not be stopped until the
fear of God, the basis of all morality,
is revived in the conscience of the peo-
pie and becomes the guiding principle
of the organization of states"
In regard to the present position of
the church in Italy, the Pope pointed
out that the symptoms were not reas-
surfing for the new year. He added
that the conditions imposed upon the
head of the church in violation of his
dignity and rights, were not enough,
for now it is sought to cast odium
upon the press which openly espoused
the defence of his interests and the in
terests of religion and morality
Continuing. the Pontiff remarked:
Further rigors threaten the clergy,
although they are the class furthest
removed from seditious designs. The
obedience of the clergy to the Apostolic
See, whose rights they defended and
whose intentions they seconded, is now
being construed as political offense.
Nevertheless, imbued with the sense
of their high mission and duty, the
clergy will not yield either to batteries
or menaces aud their firmness in find

SAGASTA VERY ILL.

MADRID, December 23.-The condition
of Senior Sagasta- the premier. now causes
grave anxiety. Six physicians were in
consultation this afternoon regarding his
case. and concurred that he is suffering
from bronchial pneumonia. with high
temperature and an unfavorable absence
of expectoration. There is no doubt that
his illness is aggravated by the strain of
recent events. The queen regent tele-
phones inquiries as to his condition and
tend him.

Our climate is open to M very seri-
Gus objection, it is not stable. It varies
from one extreme to the other, espec-
tally in the matter Of rainfall. Either
it is too dry or too wet. The earth is
parched or baked by a tropie sun and
dry nertherly winds until vegetation
withers away and every living thing is
~sufffiocated with dust. Then comes the
rains. And when they come they are
like ones poor relations, they are very
numerous and wear out their welcome.
It Just settles down after a few prelim-
mary rains, and proceeds to rain every
day from twice to a deZen times and
often as much as 3 oil 4 inches of rain a
day, until the earth becomes as one
huge sponge, saturated with a heavy
excess of moisture which oozes ont at
every pore and gives out under the
ardent rays Of a tropical sun, an all but
invisible steam which makes the at
mosphere damp and close, and causes
the starehed linen to wilt and grow
limp.
Tuesday this section was visited by
a veritable food Of rain, over two inch
es in amount and this added to the
almost daily rains of the past two weeks
has given more than a sufficiency. In
fact, in a number of places the crops
are damaged by the effects of the heavy
rains. five are to have another month
of rain, the damage will be very severe
