TRAGEDY TOO VAST FOR TEARS.
Curious Psychological Effect-of the
Calamity.

Galveston, Tex, Sept. IA, by tug to
Houston, Sept. l5.-Coming into Galveston
was in itself a memorable experience.
The business part of the town was stand
ing, but had the appearance Of the ruins
of a deserted city-a dark, deserted city,
where eagles roost. The main streets
were nearly cleared of debris, but still
parts of roofs lay about. There were no
street lights.
A soda water shop drawing the familiar
carbonated drinks for groups OF young
militiamen made the scene feel more UNI
canny. 1t was as IL wounded men sat
under a pavilion eating ice cream after
a battle. The fremont hotel, which shell
tered so many in the terrible night, was
open and receiving guests. In the lobby
the only unusual sight was a big tub OF
water and the pistols sticking out OF
mems pockets. The Galveston News,
which had just printed It's first issue since
the storm, was getting out another paper,
but felt that the sorTowful occasion pre-
cluded printing advertisements.
In a small restaurant the waiter said,
apologetically: we have no bread and
my condensed milk" and then took up
the thread of cor versation with a Gus
toner, asking: so you lost four Of your
mo, only three was the reply, be-
tween gulps Of coffee. THE old lady's
hip was broken; she wasn't killed"
1t did seem so remarkable that every
body talked about two dead, or four, or
five dead, or that among grou or young
men the exchange of conversation related
to how many looterS they had killed end
| how they had killed them. The fact that
these things did not seem incredible made
the whole thing uncanny. The calamity
had been so great that nobody was able
to say anything that measured up to Its
| vastness or tell the story with. any vivid
ness. Pathos was lost in the awfuiness
of the thing. 1t was beyond pathoss Woe
so great that the eenness of sorrw, as
1t usually expresses itself, was impossi-
BILE. This was noticeable all thee way
through. Every story was simply of the
| terrible wind, darkness, the rising tide
and the impossibility of realizing the ex-
: treme of the calamity.

there, but at least 100. OF course,
some linen is turned out in the Unit
