sCHURMAN REPORTS.
Ho Finds That the Conditions in the sOuth-
ern Islands of the Archipelago Arc
Very satIsfaoiory.

WAsHINaToN. July 9.-Dlspatches
have just been received at the state
department from President Schurman,
of the Philippine commission, Civ
ing some account of his jour
ney to the southern islands Of
the archipelago. He finds the con-
ditions in those islands extremely
gratifying. There is disposition al-
most everywhere south OF Luzon to ac-
cept American sovereignty. President
Schurman expects to arrive at San
Francisco about the 10Th of August.
1t is felt OF the state department.
that the commission has done much to
convey to the native Filipinos proper
conception of the purposes OF tho
United States government and in that
way has sapped the strength of the
insurrection.

HOUSE FIRED BY METEOR.
Peculiar Blaze ON the Roof of the
Residence of Fond du
Lao Citizen.

Fire was started on the dwelling
place of John Waters in Fond du Lac,
Wis, at seven o'clock in the evening by
the falling of meteor on the roof. AS
couple of young men were passing
about Hoyt street they noticed lit
tie ball of fire descending toward them.
They waited and saw it alight on the
roof of the home of Mr.. Waters. Noti-
flying the family, a ladder was brought
into use, and search made, with the
result that the fire was eXtinguished.
The phenomenon easily takes its place
among the recorded incidents which
succeed storms. At such times at sea
sailors say balls of electricity gently
descend from the atmosphere, and,
alighting upon the mast, drop into the
sea. On land these events are less fire.
quent, yet happen often enough TO keep
the interest of modern science engaged.
In Fond du Lac, in 1871, after the Chi
cago and Peshtigo fires, in October,
a bright ball descended upon barn
on Seventh street, poised an instant,
then descended, and killed two horses
standing in adjacent stalls

sioners TO they Paris exposition of 1900,

already, the largest amount given by

quate returns would be got for the

Commissioner Peck suggested that il
California would contribute a certain
amount to the general fund 1t would be
given a special room in the national

be good to every state in the union. No

be an exhibit of the gold mining of this
country, being a gold column contain

long way in helping our decision.

DIVORCED MEN FORM A CLUB.
Men who Have Found Marriage n
DiauR1 Failure Form
Society.

Alameda, the pretty suburb of San
Francisco, lying just across the bay, has
q unique organization called "'rhe Di-
vorced Mems club" composed entirely
of men who have found marriage fail
ure. This organization has begun cru
sade against matrimony, and its mem
bers seek to save others from dangers
into which they fell. 1t numbers
among it's members some of the prom
inent men of the town.
Secretary Ward Battles said, when
asked about the club: "Yes, we have a
divorced mems club In Alameda, and we
have among our members some of the
best-hnown men of the city. We hold
regular meetings, at which we sympa-
thize with those who are married, and
congratulate ourselves on being free.
Aside from the sociability our object
is to impress upon mankind the dangers
of matrimony, and to give those in
clined that way an opportunity to prof
1t by our sad and narrowing expert
ences.
"Our experiences have been decidedly
varied. One mans wife did not want
him to smoke, and when he insisted
there was trouble which ended in sepa-
ration. My wife objected because l
made a noise in the cellar with lot
OF tin cans. She thought it was a
burglar. She called that cruelty, and
applied to the court to get rid of me.
sour club is doing great deal of good
in preventing men from allowing their
love to get the better of their judg-
ment. Several men who thought of
getting married have been saved by our
missionaries, and we intend to push
the good work along"
