1t Is a fact of comparatively recent
discovery in chemical metallurgy that
metals lose their vitality from repeti-
tons of shocks and strains, SAYS Pear
sons Weekly, and may be said, as the
expression is, to suffer from fatigue
that is, they may be worked till their
molecules fail to hold together.
AS is Familiarity known, bars of tin,
rods of brass and wires of any metal
Will separate, owing to fatigue. if bent
backward and forward continuously.
But by careful experiments, however,
the fact is made to appear that rem
edy exists for this condition of metals
If the overstrain does not border on
rupture, and this remedy is very much
like that which is applied in the case
of an overworked human frame
namely rest.
Feather edged tools recover their
vitality better than any other. OF
course, the length of time required
for this rest varies with different met
ais and the amount of strain to which
they have been subjected.
Hard metals, such as iron and steel,
use up one and two years time in the
process. On the other hand, soft met
ais, like lead, retain their cohesive
force longer and also reGuire less rest.

island of Rombolin, which is north of the
island of Panay; also the island of Paul

il is the intention of the Washington au-

EIGHTY-FlVE DEAD, so

New Orleans, Sept. 14.-A telegram
Poe, member of the state board of edu-
catisn and residing at Lake Charles, stat
ing that S5 lives were lost on the Gulf
and Interstate train which left Beaumont
early Saturday morning from Bolivar
Point, after having made connections
with the Southern Pacific train which
left this city Friday night. Mr.. Poe was
one of the passengers on this train, and
together with few others he sought
safety in the lighthouse at Bolivar Point
and was saved.
The train reached Bolivar about noon,
and all preparations were made To- run
the train on the ferryboat preparatory to
crossing the bay. But the wind blew so
swiftly that the boat could not make a
landing, and the conductor of the train,
after allowing it to stand on the tracks
for few minutes, started to back it
toward Beaumont. The wind increased
so rapidly, coming in from the open sea,
that soon the water had reached n level
with the bottom of the seats within the
cars. 1t was then that some of the pas
sengers sought safety in the nearby light
house. But Mr.. Poe states in his tele-
gram that in spite of all efforts SS pas
sengers were blown away or drowned.
The train was entirely wrecked. Doubt
less some of the killed were from New
Orleans. as the train made direct connec.
tions with the Southern Pacific which
left here Friday night, and there were n
large number of New Orleans passengers
aboard. and it is known that at least
some of these We're bound for Galveston.

The New York Tribune calls for the
removal of the Dewey arch. Whereas
1t was once rated thing of beauty and
presumably a joy forever it has now
become blemish and an eyesore, with
no chance of restoration. That this
magnificent piece of plastic art is not
to be preserved in enduring form is by
no means creditable to the metropolis
of the nation and its 3,500,000 people.

London, Sept. 14.-No further light is
thrown this morning upon Lii Hung
Chang's intended movements. The Times
has an interesting dispatch from Pc
king, dated Sept. 4, which says in part:
Russia has decided to withdraw her
legation from Peking, leaving u purely
military command. An official announce
ment of this is expected today. The
other powers will also presumably with
draw their legations, leaving Peking un-
der the military control of the allies dur
ing the winter at least.
AT meeting of the generals the Rus
sian commander announced that Russia
would maintain $1,000 troops during the
winter. The German commander said
that Germany would keep the same num-
ber, and the Japanese commander an
nounced that Japan would have 1900.
The British general was not in posi-
ton to make an announcement
Russia's Plan.
There is every indication, however,
that Lord Salisbury has decided that our
present subordinate position in Peking
must become still humber. In the best
informed quarters the opinion is express
ed that Russia and Germany are acting
in accord, Russia seeking the definite
alienation of all territory north of the
great wall and Germany the annexation
of Shangtung, Kiang-su and the Yang
tse provinces. Russia seeks also to re-
store the power of the empress dowager
and the emperor in order to be enabled
to WELD her influence through them over
the remaining provinces. The dismem-
