Volcanic Region.

If the United States were to annex
the Philippines, it would add to its
territory group Of islands abounding
in volcanoes and never entirely free
from earthquakes Ifit were to retain
only the island of Luzon it would pos
sess the region in which the ingeous
energy Of the Philippines is concerned.
If it were to hold only the city Of Ma
nila and few square miles Of the
territory adjoining the city, there
would be constant danger Of seismic
disturbances which would destroy the
city. The seismographs at the Manila
observatory are constantly vibrating,
showing the mighty forces below the
crust of the earth which are liable at
any moment to bring disaster. The
city Of Manila has been frequently
wasted by such convulsions, and in
1863 most Of its public buildings were
leveled to the ground. In 1880 it was
again visited by an earthquake, and
the destruction would have been as
great then as in 1863, but for the fact
that the residents had pro6ted by the
lessons of the previous disaster and
constructed their houses on plan
better adapted to resist the effects Of
these violent oscillations of the earth.

The Jews Of Jerusalem.

Mr.. H. Lev kof, who was formerly
connected with the Dennenberg Com
pany Of Macon, but who is now en-
gagged in the clothing business in Au-
gusta, has translated the prayer which
was offered by the Hebrews of Jerusa-
lem June II, that the American arms
might prevail in the war against
Spain. This prayer was held in the
Temple, the Home of Jacob, by Chief
Rabbi Samuel Salanta, in the pres
ence of the American Ambassador
and in a meeting of thousands of
Israelites. The prayer is as follows:
"Oh, God, we come to beg you,
merciful God, which hears everyone's 8
prayer. We are your servants, the
children Of Jacob. We stand in your
Holy Temple and beg you to help our
American brethren of the United
States, the nation in which you have
planted the love in them to mankind
more than in any one that lives Oh
your earth. This nation went out to
great fight against fierce enemy.
The Americans do not mean to enlarge
their country; they do not mean to
take away foreign lands-they only
love to make the slaves free; they
only want to protect the weak from
their stronger brothers: they only
want to see justice to the world, as
you, God Almighty, say in your Book,
that you only want peace and glory,
as you God, knoweth all the secrets Of
the man. Oh, God, look down from
heaven upon the Americans who are
going to the battlefield to die, but to
make the poor slaves free from their
murderers. Oh, God, help our broth
ers in America. Send your angel
from Heaven to protect them, and
would that everywhere they 60 they
shall gain, and that you shall honor
the President of the United States
and to help his officers in their man
agement, and Thou shalt hold up Thy
hand and break the strength Of the
enemy, the unmerciful nation, the
land which is soaked in the blood Of
your children. You shall take re-
venge now upon them, unmerciful na-
tion; Thou shalt weaken the strength
of them that they shall be the lowest
nation in the world from to-day forever
and ever, and the nations will know
that Thou art justice and do justice
between all nations, and they shall
know the strength Of Thy Kingdom;
as you, God, the King forever and
ever, and looketh upon the weak, and
your resting place is in Jerusalem.
Amen. "-Macon Telegraph.

L. Francis, Mr. Bradley Walker, Mr.
Claude Jackson and st. PauTs colored
lawyer, Mr. F. L. McGhee, who acts
the part of Maceo. This part is full OF
dramatic feeling, and the scene, 1.-THE
Conspiracy in the Hills" is one of the
most thrilling in the play.
OF the scenes in the four act drama
perhaps the first Is the most pic
turesque, representing liberty sending
her messengers of freedom to Cuba. 1t
abounds in beautiful solos and choruses
interspersed with the dancing Of the
flower girls and musicians.
Other acts and scenes. such as the
Conspiracy In the Hills and TIE
Cuban Spy" and the Red Cross" are
dramatic, the latter being full Of
pdthOs.
The second act, opening with the
Cuban Sugar Fields gives an OPP
pOrtunity for plantation sOngs-and the
inevitable and ever popular cake walk
which will be given by some of the
most intelligent colored people in the
city.
The battle of Santiago brings in the
military element, and some of the COL
Ored soldiers who participated in that
fierce conflict at Ell Caney, will be upon
the stage.
The last scene is full of interest, and
as it includes solos and quartettes rep
Tesenting the different nations In their
national songs, will give an opportunity
for the cOlored people to display their
versatility. American and Cuban mel
Odies will be rendered, and the whole
drama will end with the Star-SpangIed
Banner sung by Mrs. W. M Smith, VINO
represents Columbia.
The presentation of the drama will
be rendered more brilliant by the pres
ence Of we'll known Twin CITY women
who have consented to act as honorary

The Stock Markets.

NEW YORK, Oct 22.-The stock market
again showed itself independent of the de-
pressing influence of London and Europe ex-
cept at the opening, when few of the inter-
national stocks were allowed to fall below
the London parity. The selling of stocks on
foreign account made up considerable pro-
portion of the days business, and was we'll
absorbed at advancing prices. The buoyancy
OF the wheat market made the grain-carrying
roads prominent in the movement the buying
or Atchison securities particularly the pre-
ferred, again occupying a conspicuous place.
But the stocks of all the Western roads were
well bought and advanced in price Sugar

closed near the top with net gain of NC
the underlying strength manifest in the mar
ket making the bears timid about leaving
short contracts uncovered over Sunday. To-
bacco also was marked up to 1925 with every
evidence of violent manipulation, and shorts
were driven to cover heavily at every stage Of
the advance. Even the coalers showed the
effects Of the uncertain temper developed by
the bears, and made recoveries on short offer
ings.
The bank statement was just about as ex-
pected, and had little effect one way or the
other. The gain in cash had been in imported
gold and by outgo from the sub-treasury,
and the heavy increase in loans of over $1,000
W0 represents for the most part loans on
sterling which IS an element in the lending
OF money abroad. The increase in deposits
from this source expanded the reserve re-
quirements so far that the increased cash only
served to raise the surplus by So, $50, IT'S Bus
mess in both stocks and bonds was we'll dis
tributed, and the market showed a decided
tendency to broaden out The amount of bus
mess done was larger than for any half day
for some time.

CHURCH WANTS QUIET.

Sues a Railroad for Disturbing

TOPEKA, Kan, Oct. 22.-The First
Methodist church Of Leavenworth to-
day sued the Chicago Great Northern
railroad for $4,000 damages. Two years
ago the Great Western built a depot
near the church. The church COM
plains that during Sunday services the
engines Shrek and throb, bells ring
steam spurts out and the smoke is SO
dense that often the minister is forced
to dismiss his congregation Many
members of the church, 1t is alleged,
have withdrawn on account Of this dis
turbance.
The church property has become
practically worthless as a place Of
worship and for these reasons $1,000
damages are prayed Of the federal
court.

Steps Are to BE Taken to RehabiI-

itate the Army Post.
OMAHA, Neb, Oct PAS a result
of the recent visit of Gen. Nelson A.
Miles to this city there is a movement
on foot to rehabilitate old Fort Omaha
and to use it for military purposes. The
movement is backed by Gen. Miles and
the officers of the department of the
Missouri and has the hearty support
OF Assistant Secretary OF War NJ ikle-
john. With this backing army officers
believe that the act of congress pro-
viding for the sale of the old military
post will be suspended and that before
long the regular infantry men will be
again drilling on the beautiful parade
grounds Of the fort.
Assistant Secretary MeiklejOhn and
Gen. Shafter and staff made an insQec-
ton of Fort Omaha, now occupied by
the Second regiment Of Nebraska vol
Cnteer infantry. Gen. Miles made
visit there and expressed himself as
DESTROYS Of having the post fitted up
for use of the regular army adding that
the prospective increase in the size Of
the army would make additional posts
necessary, and as the government al
ready owned Fort Omaha it would be
more advisable to rehabilitate it than
to purchase property for a new post.
Gen. Miles requested the department
of the Missouri to make a thorough in
spection Of the pest and to prepare an
estimate of the exper s. involved in fit
ting up the post for military Uses. The
inspection was made on Saturday and
Sunday and the estimate of necessary
expenditures prepared and mailed TO
the war department yesterday. About
$4,000 will be required to be spent at
the post in order to reopen 1T for mill
tary purposes. This estimate provides
for the construction of no buildings,
although all of the buildings would be
practically new when the repairs pro
posed were completed. New roofs for
most of the buildings, new floors in all
Of them, new weather boards for the
barracks and the cottages and some
minor repairs constitute the principal
items IN the estimate forwarded to
Washington at Gen. Miles request.
