bance, therefore, was likely to cause
the ebullition to begin, as the water
was in a state of unstable equilibrium.
If soap or concentrated lye were add
ed, viscous fluid was produced which
seemed to cause the retention of
steam, and in the case Of superheated
waters explosive liberation must fol-

In 1851 Mr.. Henry Cadell, an Eng
lish geologst, visited the Yellowstone
park and gave some attention to the
soaping of geysers. He reported that
the famous Old Faithful geyser SEEM

occurred at uncertain intervals, pay
more heed to the artful dodge to set

but l. sceptible to the action OF lsoap.
In a per read by Mr.. HagueBa a few
years ago. he said that geyser erup-
tions produced by soap or alkali ap-
pear to demand two conditions: First.
the surface reservoir should hold but
a small amount of water exposing only
a limited area to the atmosphere; seq
ond, the water must stand at, or about,
the boiling point of water.

KANSAS CONVENTION.
Gathering of Republicans Yesterday
Was Harmonious.

Kansas City, May 16.-The Republi-
can state convention today selected
d. NJ. Houser, d. p. Dyer, James L.
MINIS and c. G. Burton as delegates
at-large to the national convention.
Four negroes were chosen alternates-
at-large.
Joseph Flory, of ST. Louis, was nomi-
mated for governor and +. f. Allen,
of Kansas City, for lieutenant COVER
nor. The convention was harmonious.
A big fight was expected to come over
the selection of delegates-at-large for
which there had originally been seven
avowed candidates. However, but five
names were presented. and Nathan
Frank, of st. Louis the fifth man in
the voting, was the unsuccessful can
didate. The platform adopted endorses
the progressive administration of
President Mckinley; favors the main
tenance of the gold standard and "a =
vors the extension of self government
to all the people that have lately come
under the protection of this country
as rapidly as they demonstrate their
ability to handle it. Opposition is de-
clared to all trusts and combinations
in restraint of trade or which stifle
competition and legislation is demand
ed to protect the public from these
evils.

woMAN's MEDICAL COLLEGE.
Commencement Exercises Held in
Philadelphia Academy of Music,


Philadelphia, May 16.-The COM
mencement exercises of the Woman s
Medical college of Pennsylvania were
held in the Academy of Music today.
The event marks an epoch in the his
tory of women in the study of medi-
cine, as it commentaries the estab-
lishment of the Oldest medical college
for women in the world, the celebrc tion
of the fiftieth anniversary of the insti-
tuition also beginning with todays cere-
monies. Twenty-siX students received
the degree of NJ. D., among them be-
ing Kei Okami, of Japan; SObat MISE
lambooly, of Syria, and Hu King Eng,
of China.
WI Ting Fang, the Chinese minister,
addressed the graduates. During the
course of his address Minister Wu took
occasion to criticize American men for
their opposition to women in the medI-
cal profession. He said:
II am not a little surprised to learn
that for all the boast of Anglo-Saxon
fairness and chivalry, medical women
have had a hard time in fighting their
way, against strong opposition at every
step, to public recognition and profes-
sional standing. | am sure that they
would receive better treatment in
China. There the medical profession
does not form close corporation. Any
one who has sufficient skill and knoWl-
edge in the art of healing is freely al
lowed to practice, irrespective of ma
tionality sex or creed, so long as he or
she can get patients"
In conclusion, WI Ting Fang advised
the graduates to go to China. where
he said, there is room for them, owing
to the small number of women doctors.

SoAPING GEYSERS.
Remarkable Results of Tossing Soap
Into the Hot Fountains of the
Yellowstone,

Yellowstone.
From the New York sun.
A lecturer on the Yellowstone park
this season, is showing a picture of
one of the hot springs in the park
which has perfectly placid surface.
The next photograph is of the same
water surface taken a minute after
soap is thrown into the pool, which
then resembles a basin filed with vio-
lently boiling soapsuds. All tourists
in the Yellowstone region are familiar
with the remarkable result of throw
ing soap into the hot springs or gey-
sers. In the early days of touring in
that wonderland the visitors got into
the habit of soaping the geyserS to
make them spout, and the park au-
thorities finally forbade the practice,
because some of them seemed to have
been permanently injured by such
treatment.
The lecturer also shows q picture of
the hot spring where the remarkable
effect of soap was first discovered.
There is still displayed at this spring
the sign of the Chinese laundryman
in the upper Geyser Basin who in the
summer of 1885 astonished himself and
the rest of the world with this unex-
pected phenomenon. Here he had es-
tablished his laundry, using the hot
water from the spring that was ready
to his hand. One day he poured a lot
of water he had used, in which was a
liberal admiXture of laundry soap
back into the spring, when there was
suddenly an eruption of the waters
that not only astOnshed but also in
jured him, for he was thoroughly
| drenched by the hot water thrown out
on the bank.
A little later one of our geologists
Mr.. Arnold Hague, investigated this
strange phenomenon. BY series OF
| experiments he found that some of the
| gelgers and hot springs were much
more susceptible than others TO the
soap treatment, Many of the springs
and geysers We're quiet even when the
surface temperature of the water was
above the boiling point. Any distur-

speech regarding the discouraging con
dition in his district.
Secretary Charles A. Canavan, of
Scranton, read the minutes of the
meetings of the board or government
during the year, which were approved.
He then read his annual report, which
showed that the membership of the
union is now the greatest in its his
tory, there being forty-eight societies
of adults, twenty-four of cadets and
six of ladies, a total or seventy-eight
societies, and a gain of eight over the
previous year, when there were but
seventy There are 9,0O3 persons now in
the union, an increase of $40 over the
previous year.

THEATRICAL.
Annie Russell Friday.

Annie Russell, as will be seen here at the Ly.
ceum Friday evening is fortunate young woman.
After the pleasing impressing she created last
night in Catherine" she was lucky enough to
find in her new play, Miss Hobbs" a character
exactly suited to her capabilities. It was no.
written for her, but it fits her so we'll it would
seem Mr., jerome, the author, had person OF
her temperament and disposition in his mind
even when engaged in its composition.
Or is it that Miss Russell is so subtle in her
art that she is able to make us believe this new
character is her real temperament, as we thought
last season the meek and selfsacrifcing Catherine
was? At any rate, she is credited with making
a charming ''Mss Hobbs and acting with that
delcacy Of manner which characterized her role
of last season.

The army chaplain whom Sir Charles
Warren sent to bury the English dead
after the battle at Spion Kop described
him as vehement, full of fiery indigna-
tion against the English, resolute, but
not disinclined to listen to common
sense.
He is very unassuming in his looks.
He seems Just what he is-a hardy,
strong minded well-built and shrewd
son of the soil. The audacious tactics
of the Beers during the recent weeks
are to be attributed to his guidance
solely, as he is the ideal leader for a
guerrilla warfare carried on by means
of swift, harassing movements.
The Beers look up to him already
with the same confidence which they
bestowed upon Joubert, and the tenn
porary discOuragements have given
way to confidence and renewed spirit.

Rev. J. J. Curran, of Wilkes Barre,
then moved that a committee be ap-
pointed to wait on the bishop to have

Curran made a second motion to the
effect that the proceedings of the board
