Tuesday. Gen. Axline has issued an

OF the Seventeenth regiment Axline
says that by o'clock Tuesday night
the First regiment will be equipped
and ready to go south if the

of war has requested that he be ad-
vised as soon as the First regiment is
ready to start and it is the belief here
that the troops will be sent south a

equipped and mustered.

point OF general rendezvous at Chicka-

slipped into the sea, and far, far be-
low their keels lie the imprisoned peo-

An Adventure in the Jungle. :,

-
The moon has a curious trick OF
changing objects into something quite
unlike themselves in appearance. In
one instance such transformation
nearly cost the life of a British soldier.
He thus relates the incident: My
company had been ordered into the
sDeshur district to break up the Da-
colts, who had become very trouble
some. We arrived there in the night,
.stormed a band of the robbers by moon
light, killed or captured a round dozen
of them, and chased the rest into the
jungle. Some of US followed on foot
among the reeds and bushes, but soon
got tired of this useless business, and
were quite willing to stop and turn
back at the sound of the recall. Our
hospital steward, a native, and a good
one, was by my side. My canteen had
been emptied on the march, and 1 was
parched with the thirst that follows
fighting. Something among the bushes
glistening on the ground like water,
caught my eye. "It's a stagnant pool
left by the rains, but it will serve to
wet my throat" I said, and was for
throwing myself on j.. the ground to
drink, but the steward pulled me back

sword for a moment" he said, He
took my sword, and lightly stirred the

arose, and there came the sound of its
hateful hiss. With sweep of the
sword the steward cut the reptiles head

Later Catastrophe.
In his annals of jamaica" pub

one Of the survivors-a rector-two or
three days after the disaster, which is,
in part. as follows: i

with their paramours. License, ran
riot. There was no virtue. For years
every one in the place had been grow
ing richer and with the wealth came
the desire for ease and pleasure which
saps a peoples strength. No one work
ed, for money was brought to every
one In the pirate ships which roamed
the seas only to capture a cargo suf1-
cient to purchase few weeks Of pleas
ure and feasting and drunkenness at
Port Royal. From Peru and Mexico
came boat loads of gold and silken
stuffs and other treasure and with the
arrival Of every pirate the bacchana-
lian revels redoubled in license and
depravity. The people lounged to
church, but it was only mockery of
worship. They were drunk with their
prosperity and insane with their long
ing for the pleasures of the table and
the wine cup.
On that fated day when the ven
geance which overlook Sodom and Co.
morrah descended upon Port Royal the
revelry. was at its height, when there
came a sound like the great crack of
doom, the earth trembled and the half
drunken revelers rushed from the
houses in dismay. The great cathedral
rocked and it's tower trembled a mo-
ment, and, while the people were ask
ing one another, white-lipped and ter
ritied, what manner of thing was hap
pening, tn eearth gaped open like
great jaw and closed with thousands
in its NAV, catching many half way
in the frightful opening and holding
them, crushed and broken, with their
helpless arms extended toward the
heaven they had so long forgotten.
Scarce had this occurred, when, with a
mighty roar, the. whole city began TO
slide down into the ocean. :.
In vain the afrighted people began to
flee to the high land beyond the city.
They were caught and engulfed be-;

ACROSS THE coNrINENT,,,,I.
How tho Lasley Fsmaly ,Travessd 9
Thsir own Mouse.

Quite curiosity in the share Of .
house on wheels Is making the rounds
Of Washington streets. It is owned
by M. b. A. Lasley, Of the most nerth-
western portion of the state of wash
ington, who, together with his wife,
Eve children and three pets, came all
the way from that state across the con-
tient, to the Atlantic coast. The long
journey was begun March ~, 1894, and
Lasley expects, after making tour OF
the New England states, to go across
the ocean and see some of Europe's
countries, incidentally taking in the
great Paris exposition. In 1894 Las
ley lost his home in Washington, and,
being an invalid, decided to strike out
for California, but having no funds he
was at a loss how to proceed. Finally
he and his wife decided upon the plan
of house on wheels, and in it they
made the trip to the land of sunshine.
Lasley then decided to broaden the
original plan, and try trip across the
continent, which scheme was imme-
diately put into effect, with the result
that Lasley has entirely recovered his
health, is a strong, robust, healthy
looking specimen of American man
hood, while his wife and children have
all the appearances of the genuine hap
py family. The trip across the con-
tinent was made by way of Denver,
starting from San Francisco; Paris,
Tex; st. Louis, Chicago, Cincinnati,
Pittsburg, Buffalo and Albany to New
York city. Their travels were confined
to the summer periods, winter stays be-
ing made in Denver, St. Louis and
New York. From New York the fam
lily made their way to this city by way
of Philadelphia and Baltimore, and ex-
pect to retrace their steps by the same
route. Lasley has, of course, had
some rather interesting experiences
during his long trip, especially in the
mountain regions of the West and
even in Pennsylvania, but there has
never been ever the slightest accident
to mar the pleasure of the journey. The
house itself is the only house on wheels
in existence, according to Lasley, there
being none Of the regular accessories
to a wagon, such as a fifth wheel or
couplings, to be found in its makeup.
On the rear wheel there is register
that has been ticking continuously
since the beginning Of the trip, and
which now shows a fraction over 1000
miles. One remarkable feature Of the
trip is the fact that one Of the pets,
a dog, has walked the entire distance,
it being claimed that he is the only
canine that has walked across the con-
tinent. Twenty horses have been used
since Lasley started, some Of them dy-
ing from being worn out and others
being traded for younger and better
animals. The stay of the Lasley fam
lily of the house-on-wheels frame in
Washington will be of short duration.
While here they are taking in the
sights of the capital city and, when
they are exhausted, will begin the re-
turn trip to New York. From there,
as stated, a trip through the New Eng
land states will be taken-Washingto

at anchor, and their. dark -browed crews
slept or lounged lazily about the decks
while their masters joined the festiy-
ities ashore. In the houses and pal
aces Of the city there was revelry and
feasting and drinking, for the pirates
OF the Spanish main spent freely what.
they secured so easily. Gold was as.
common as copper is today. The tod
oilers IL the streets, when they held out
baby hands for aims to the passers-
by, were rewarded with gold piece
or two.

the Almighty.

kingston Jamaica, Correspondence.
Beneath the blue waters of the har-
bor of this quaint old town lies buried
city which was once the seat OF
wealth and profigacy and all their at
tendant train of evils. In one awful
moment the earth gaped, 1.-The seas open
ed to receive the palaces of Hcentious-
ness and closed above them, and 5000
f1uckless mortals. Today, when the
waters of the bay are still and shining
in the tropical sun, the sailors may
lean over the sides of their skiffs, and,
peering down through the azure depths
see the fishes swimming in and out of
ithe arches Of the old cathedral, the
sharks moving lazily among the great
palaces, and the sea moss twining
around the windows through which
the music and song of the revelers
were drifting when the fearful visita-
tion came and wiped the city from the
face of the earth. Two hundred years
have passed since that June day when
Port Royal disappeared into the sea.
Three other cities builded upon its site
have been destroyed by fire and hurri-
cane and earthquake. The avenging
power, which descended upon the
stricken city seemed to pursue it even
after it's thousands had found watery
graves in the bay, which now shimmers
so placidly except when the fearful ly-
:phoons sweep over it and lash its wat
ers to mad revels.
It was June Z, 1892 Port Royal lay
sweltering under the heat of a tropical
summer. Built upon a tongue of land
extended into the ocean, it was swept
by breezes which brought with them
little relief from the direct rays @o1
the SUM-. The harbor was filled with
shipping from every port IN the world,
for Port Royal was. a place Of wealth
and luxury. Great Britain's men-of-
war lay IN the oft1ng with their sails
furled and their men reveling ashore
in the city. Spanish buccaneers, lad
