St. LUCIA NOT DISTURBED.
Remarkable Fact in Connection With
Martinique Disaster.

Perhaps the most extraordinary
phenomenon which presents itself in
connection with the volcanic eruptions
at Martinique and st. Vincent is that
st. Lucia, lying between the two
islands. and only about forty miles
distant from the seat of seismic dis
turbance on either side. has never
experienced the slightest tremor, nor
have any but the faintest sounds been
heard by a few persons; and only
once, for a few hours. has the fall
of ashes caused darkness to the ex.
tent of inconvenience. This Is all the
more remarkable in that from st.
kits, southwark to Trinidad, have
distinct earth rumblings been expert
enced and loud detonations heard.
Yet the electrical phenomena, especi-
ally when Mont Pelee has been active,
can be distinctly seen from here.

EARL OF DUDLEY is NOT
POPULAR WITH THE IRISH

The Earl of Dudley must rely for
his popularity with the people of Ire.
land, to whom he has been sent by
the British government as lord lieu,
tenant, to his young and pretty wife.
for he has shown himself tactless and
lacking in sympathy with the people
over whom he rules. The Countess OF
Dudley was one Of the beauties OF
English society when she married,
and has great charm of manner. per
haps sufficient to overcome the dis
like which has been evinced for hen
husband
The operation of the crimes act,
with the Imprisonment of Irish leaders
who are charged by the British gov.
eminent with fomenting sedition, has
still further estranged the people. The
position of the Earl of Dudley can in
no sense be called a sinecure.
Possibly the Duke of Marlborough,
with his beautiful American wife and
the millions which she brought him,
might have had more success as tho
occupant of the vice-regal lodge IN
Dublin, but even this is doubtful.

About Your Lessons, Boys.

The boy who used to boast of get

heard from. The same traits of char.

his teacher into believing that he had
solved his problems, . completed
his tasks himself, led him to cheat his
employer, to idle whenever his back
was turned, and to shirk his days
work, until he finally lost hts position.
His lack Of education-the result Of
cheating his teacher-has proved q
perpetual handicap, and has lost him
many a good situation. His dishon.

has grown until nobody will trust him
and he has no credit or standing in

clever in being able to dodge his
lessons and impose upon his teacher;
but he realizes now that the person
cheated was himself. In those pre-

Fun In a Clocks Face.
Some amusement may be had in a
company Of boys and girls by asking
them to draw a picture of the face of
a clock. Most of them would be likely
to draw the letters w. instead of iii.
for four, and would forget, perhaps,
that all the letters of the dial should
stand with their base toward the cen.
ter.
1t Is probable that most people read
a clock dial by the position OF the fig
ures or letters and disregard the fig
ures themselves. Some of the larger
clocks now made for steeples have
only straight line at each hour place
and they serve their purpose admir-
ably.
1t has been found. however, that
while most persons have no accurate
knowledge of dials, any marked de.
parture from the usual method of
marking them is at once detected. A
dial bearing w. instead OF the four
straight lines attracts everybody's at
tentiOn.
