Illinois Soil Survey.

The United States Bureau of Soils
and the University of Illinois are
jointly undertaking the soil survey OF
Illinois. Work has begun in Tazewell
County. In doing this work it is nee.
essary to proceed slowly, and take
samples Of the soil from the surface
to depth of three to six feet. Soil
maps will be made, which will show
the location of all the different classes
of soils. The samples are to be taken
by means of augers. The experiment
station at Champaign will supplement
the soil survey by means of analyses
of samples of the soil taken. This
work is certain to be of great value to
the farmers of the state, as it will
make more intelligent treatment Of
the soils possible. 1t is expected that
1000 square miles Of soil will be sur,
veyed this season.

.l-6Y AN EYE WITNESS.
Mayor Of Trinite, Who Saw Eruption
of Mont Pelee, Describes It.

I'D
New York, May 19.-Ferdinand
}Clerc, millionaire, and mayor Of
Trinite, is one of the few persons who
witnessed the eruption of Mont Pslee
and lived to tell about it, says a dis
patch to the World from st. Marie.
Martinique. He says on the morning,
of May s he noticed the rumblings
from the volcano, which were more,
pronounced that they had been up to
that time. The barometer in his house
futtered violently, and he at once noti-
fed his servants to hitch mules to the
carriage and prepare for flight. Clerc
cook his wife and four children with
him and rushed from the city. He
also but his advice was sdiscredited.
twenty-eight of his friends, who had
gathered there at his call, and whom
ne advised to get away as rapidly as
they could. AS Clerc and his family
were leaving st. Pierre, he saw Mr..
Prentis, the American consul, stand
ing in front of his house with Mrs.
Prentis. Mr.. Clerc called out to Mr..
Prentis and warned him to flee from
the city at once, but the consul only
laughed and waived his hand as he
answered.: ooh, there is no danger,
don't be afraid"
When Clerc reached Morne Rouge,
distance from st. Pierre about six
miles, he saw a huge mass of slate
colored stones and ashes burst from
Mont Pelee and tumble down on st.
Pierre. This was Immediately fol-
lowed by great wall of flame, which
seemed to rise and topple over on the
doomed town. The whole thing lasted
not more than two minutes.
So sharply defined was the wall of
fame that a bull caught on the
edge Of it's tracks was roasted to a
crisp on one side and not hair of
the animal was singeo on the other.
A man named Lazzerne, with COM
panion, was entering ST. Pierre in
small carriage drawn by a pair of
mules. The mules were instantly
killed and Lazzarne and his friend
was severity burned, but the coach
man who was between the mules and
the two men was not burned in the
least.

HORROR AT ST. VINCENT
CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATE OF
DEATH is 100.
Gangs of Men are Searching for the
Dead and Burying Them as Fast
as Possible.


Kingstown, Island of st. Vincent,
May IA correspondent of the AS
ISOLATED Press has just returned here
from visit, on horseback, to the de-
vastated district Of this island, during
which he travelled fifty miles and pene-
trated to within five miles Of the Souf-
riere crater. Iue ash-covered area Of
st. Vincent exceeds that of Martini
que, which the correspondent has al
so explored. The most conservative
places the number at seventeen hun
dred. About 1900 bodies have already
been inferred. The entire northern
part of the island is covered with
ashes to an average depth of eighteen
inches. varying from thin layer at
Kingstown to two feet or more at
Georgetown. The crops are ruined,
nothing green can be seen, the streets
of Georgetown are numbered with
heaps of ashes resembling snowdrifts,
and in many cases ashes rest so heavi-
ly on roofs that it his caused them to
fall in. There soon will be 5000 desti-
tute persons in need of assistance
from the government, which is already
doing everything possible to relieve
the sufferers. There are. hundred in
;ured people in the hospital at George
town, gangs of men are searching
for the dead or rapidly burying them
in trenches and all that can De done
under the circumstances is being &C.
complished.

Trinidad today for more.
The governor of the Windward is
lands, Sir Robert Llewelyn, is here,

While the outbreak on the island of
Martinique killed more people out
right, more territory has been ruined
in St. Vincent, hence there is greater
restitution here.
The injured persons were horribly
burned by the hot grit which was
driven along with tremendous velo-
city. Twenty-six persons who sought
refuge in room ten feet by twelve
were killed. One person was Drained
by huge stone nine miles from the
crater.
Rough collins are being made to re-
ceive the remains of the victims. The
hospitals here are filled with dying
people. Fifty injured persons are ly-
ing on the floor of that building, as
there are no beds for their accommo-
dation, though cots are being rapidly
constructed of boarus. This and SINH
lar work has been in progress since
Immediately after the disaster. Two
days elapsed, however, before there
We're any burials, as the negroes re-
fused to dig the necessary trenches,
though they were offered three times
the usual wages by the authorities.
The nurses employed are incompetent,
but they are willing to learn and are
working hard.

been tried by court-martial for offenses
against natives (Filipinos)." This list
was furnished as proof that the adj

& tecting the Filipinos, but Senator
Lodge unconsciously furnished conclu-
sive proof Of the charges of cruelty and
misconduct brought against the army.

cutfoGs on file, who will say that the
offenses have been rare" and cocoa
