sabbath worship Of the snaxers.


"Sabbath worship is usually conduct
ed at the public church, where visitors
from the world are free to attend"
writes Madeline S. Bridges of the
Shakers of Mount Lebanon, N. Y, in
The Ladies' Home Journal. "Four sis.
ters and four brethren stand in the cen
ter Of the room and form a double quar-
tct. The Shaker dance, SO miscalled,
is in reality a more or less stately march,
in which all the members join-the
brethren in a procession, two by two,
followed by the sisterllood in like order.
They move in step to the hymns they
are singing, either slowly or quickly, as
the measure Of the time demands. The
ritual is of the simplcst-testimony Of
faith fervently uttered by those who
feel impelled to speak, ~ few earnest
words Of eSllortation from the elders.
the march and the singing of hymns.
"Something curious ill regard to these
Shaker hymns is the fact that they are
claimed to be largely inspirational-the
music and words come together 'as
gifts, and frequently to those who are
not musical. For instance, very often Il
tap will sound OH the door of IL musical
sister and an unmusical sister will en-.
ter with the announcement, Sister, Il
song has just come to me Can you take
the words and note it for me?'"

Lowering Of the Great Lakes.
w. =. Harwood writes of ssThe Great
Lakes in st. Nicholas. MI. HARDWOOD
says:
Biologists point out the fact that this
chain of ls;ses has not always been as
It now is; that there was q time when
all the lakes were blended into one,
having probably the Mississippi river
for its outlet to the gulf on the south.
One geologist says:
Every day sees something taken from
the rocky barrier Of Niagara, and geo.
logically speaking at no very remote
time our great lakes will have shared
the fate of those which once existed in
the great far west. Already they have
been reduced to less than one-half their
former area, and the water level has
been depressed 800 feet or more. The
process IS pretty sure to so on until they
are completely emptied. The cities that
stand upon their banks will ere that
time have grown colossal in size, then
gray with age, then fall into dece-
dence and their sites be long forgot
ten, but in the sediments that are now
accommodating in these lake basins will
lie many a wreck and skeleton. tree
trunk and ioated leaf. Near the city
sites and old river mouths these sedi-
ments will be- full of relics that will ill.,
lustrate and explain the mingled come
ay aud tragedy of life.
In O certain sense these lakes form
one mighty river, draining a region Of
over 525. 900 square miles and finding
an outlet for their OVERLOOKING water

1t is interesting to note that the bot.

The most important island in the Ca
nary group is Tenerife, whose famous
mountain is known to navigators as one
Of the most imposing landmarks in the
world. The mountain rises IL. 1879 feet
above the sea, the peak having 1ele form
Of q sugar loaf. Considering the fact
that the island is itself a mountain.
springing almost perpendicularly from
the ocean, the bottom Of which is six
miles below, Tenerife is the loftiest
peak in the world. Beside it Mont
Blanc is a pygmy. Cotopaxi, Kinchin-
junga and Mount Everest dwindle by
comparison. While all the islands are
volcanic and all contain evidences Of
very recent action, Tenerife is the only
one which still continues in eruption.
The summit of the mountain is q cir
cular wall inclosing q crater q mile in
diameter and v 100 feet in depth.
From the offing, and even from the sea
shore, the sides Of Tenerife seem as
though carved by hand, but the inn
mense size of the mountain is in pro-
portion to this crater, although it seems
incredible to the locker on that at the
mountain top there should be one Of the
largest craters in the world. The great
crater Of Tenerife has been ~quiescent
ever since the island was r~ediscovered
by Europeans early in the fifteenth CEN
fury, but in score of places on the
mountain side there are smaller craters
which continually emit splphurous
steams and gases and occasionally throw
out small quantities of lava-St. Louis

Washington, July 27.-The War de-

ing, received from General Shafter in
response to query by the department
as to ships being turned away from San
tiago. The press reports are not true.
I only know of three ships having ar
rived, one from Kingston, the others
from the United States. The Bratton
has sold its cargo, another ship from
New Orleans, sold only part of her
cargo and the captain tells me he is
going away tonight. think he will
sell before he leaves. The trouble is
they did not expect to pay any duty and
arrived here without the necessary
money. Spanish customs as applied to
Spanish subjects have only been collect
ed, and 20 cents per ton as ordered by
the secretary. l discovered this morn
ing an attempt on the part of the mu-
nicipality to collect a tax of 40 cents per
100 kilos, in this instance amounting to

ter by ordering Its non-collection. The
fact Is there Is no money here to dc
business and the merchants are very
timid about making purchases fearing
the effect of the Red Cross supplies
which really are feeding the town. The
New Orleans man, for instance, brought

ACTED FOR MOTIVES OF HUMANITY
Prince Henry's Published Statement Re-
garding the Irene Incident in
Subic Bay,

Berlin, July a7. A dispatch from
Shanghai today, says that an official
statement from Prince Henry of Prus-
sia, in regard to the Irene incident at
Subic bay in the Philippines has been
published in the Ost-Asiatiche Lloyd.
1t says the Irene went to Subic bay to
take off some Spanish women and chill
dren who were in distress. At Isla
Grande the German warship happened
to meet steamer belonging to the in
surgents, which left without any diff
Guilty arising. On returning, the Irene
met outside Manila bay two United
States ships which did not speak her.
In conclusion, the statement sets forth
that the removal of the women and
children was effected from motives OF
humanity and with strict observance OF
the rules of neutrality

PREPARING ANSWER TO SPAIN.
Reply to Peace Message Will Be Ready in
Day or Two Military Operations
Will Go Steadily Forward.

Washington, July 27.-Secretary OF
State Day is in conference with the
president relative to the answer to be
given Spains peace message. When
asked when the reply to Spain would be
made he said it would depend on cir
cumstances, but it would be delivered
within a day or two. The military
operations are to 60 steadily forward so
far as the United States is concerned,
until negotiations have been advanced
much further than they are at present
They are subject to interruption at any
moment by an armistice, but it must be
said this is scarcely expected immedi-
ately. 1t is realized that when the
Spanish government learns the extent
of the demands of the United States
the first effect will be a reflex movement,
which, in turn will result in a continue
tion of active hostilties for time.
This time, it is expected, however, per-
haps will be only so long as is necessary
for General Miles to completely invest
San Juan. That stroke 1t is thought
will bring the Spanish government to a
realizing sense of the hopelessness of
further resistance.

REPORT OF NAVAL CAPTAINS.
What the Different Ships Of Admiral Samp-
sons Fleet Did Toward Destroying
Spanish Vessels.

Washington, July 27.-The reports OF
Captain Chadwick. of the New York;
Captain Taylor, of the Indiana; Captain
Philips, of the Texas, and Lieutenant
Commander Wainwright, of the Glou-
cester on the destruction of Admiral
Cervera's fleet, which We're included in
Admiral SIMPSONS report, were made
public today. Captain Chadwick says:
although this ship was not able to
come into action with any of the larger
ships on account of her distance to the
eastward, every nerve was strained to
do SO, and all was done that could be
done. Our speed had rapidly increased
so that we were going 16 knots at the
end. We were Immediately astern
while the others were considerably to
seaward. We were thus in position
to prevent any possible doubling to the
rear and escape to the southeast"
Captain Taylor says: This ship fired
on all the Spanish ships as they came
out one by one, and continued the
action later by firing principally on the
Maria Teresa, Oquendo, Furore and
Pluton. Several of our shells were seen
w ldNC tHCCb UH tIlCSC NCSstIS. oul
secondary battery guns were directed
principally on the destroyers as also
were the six-inch guns. The destroyers
were sunk through agency of our guns
and those of the Gloucester, which YES
sci had come up and engaged them at
close board. During the action we used
no armor piercing shell except smoke
less powder six-pounders, and the good
effect of the common shell is shown by
the effect on the enemy's ships ard the
short time taken to disable them without
piercing their armor, and with almost
no injury to our ships
Captain Philips, after telling of the
work of the Texas against the Vizcaya,
Oquendo and Maria Teresa, says that in
the pursuit of the Colon, the Texas held
her own at distance of about four
miles. He concludes: ''The bearing and
performance of duty by all the officers
met with my entire approval"
Lieutenant Wainwright, of the Glou-
cester. reports: ''It was the plain duty
of the Gloucester to look after the de-
stroycrs, and she was held back, gaining
steam, until they appeared at the en-
trance. All the officers and nearly all
the men deserve my highest praise for
their conduct during the action. The
escape of the Gloucester was due mainly
to the accuracy and rapidity of the fire.
The efficiency of this fire. as well as that
of the ship generally, was largely due
to the intelligent and unremitting efforts
of Executive Officer Lieutenant Harry p.
Huse."
