Special to Times Republican.
Fcrt Dodge, May 22.-The question
of who shall be superintendent of the
Fort Dodge schools during the coming

board. The name of the new superin-

was favorable, was the last thing need
ed to confirm the board in its convic-
ton that Mullin was the man, and the
matter was finally settled by the vote
on Monday evening.

A Turquoise Popularity.

About one woman in three cannot
wear turouoises without turning them
green. Some turquoises will turn green
after being wcrn by any woman. Jew
eIers of the first class guarantee to re-
place turquoises if they turn green
and the annual cost Of the replace
ments is stupendous. One jewel house
has tried the experiment of having all
it's employees go around with dozens
of turquoses strapped next to their
skin to try to detect the green ones
but even when they have passed this
test some Of them will be brought back
by customers. having turned a hideous
green. No reason is known for the
changing of color.

Leonard Wood. And great tho the
services were that General Wood rem
dered during the war. they have been
surpassed by the inestimable service
he has rendered in peace to Cuba, and
therefore to our nation, for our interest

fare of Cuba.

think that one lesson every one who
was capable of learning anything
learned from his experience in that war
was the old. old lesson that we need to
apply in peace quite as much-the les
son that the man who does not care to
do any act until the time for heroic ac-
ton comes does not do the heroic act
when the time does come. You all re-
member, comrades it is barely posi-
ble some of you remember being the
man who, when you enlisted had a the
ory that there was nothing but splendor
and fighting and bloodshed in the war;
and then had the experience at once of
learning that the first thing you had to
do was to perform commonplace duties,
and perform we'll.
II remember o ne time in my regi-
ment young fellow who had come
Gown to fight for his country complains
ing that he had been doing nothing but
digging kitchen sinks, to which the an
swer was obvious that he was to go on
digging kitchen sinks. And the work
OF any man In the campaign depended
,pnp tho raSolution and effective INTEL
ligence with which he started about do
ing each duty as it arose: not waiting
until he could choose the duty that he
thought sufficiently spectacular to do:
Going the duty that came to hand. That
is exactly the lesson that all of us need
to learn in times of peace

RoosEvELT's eoDD ADVICE.
President Urges Importance Of At
tention to Present Duties.


Washington, May 22.-"What we
most need in this republic is not spe-
cial genius, is not unusual brilliancy,
but the honest and upright adherence
on the part of the mass of the citizens
and of their representatives to the fun
damental laws of private and public
morality, which are now what they
have been during recorded history, and
we shall succeed or fail in making
this republic what it should be made
1 will go little further than that
what it shall and must be made accord
ing to the manner in which we seriously
and resolutely set ourselves to do the
task of citizenship, which consists of
doing the duties, private and public,
which in the aggregate make 1T up
The foregoing formed the most strik-
ing part of an address delivered to-
day by President Roosevelt at the un-
yelling of shaft erected at Arlington
by the National Society of Colonial
Danes in memory of the soldiers who
fell in the Spanish-American war.
In opening the president referred to
that struggle as "a short war; war
that called for the exertion of only the
merest fraction of the giant strength
of this nation, but a war the effects of
which will be felt thru the centuries to
come because of the changes it
wrought. 1t is eminently appropriate
that the monument should be unveiled
today, the day succeeding that on
which the free republic of Cuba took its
place among the nations of the world,
ais a sequel to what was done by those
men who fell and by their comrades in
'9S."
I'VE went to war for a specific pur-
pose" he continued. I'VE made for
Cuba a specific pledge, and we re-
deemed that pledge to the letter, and
| think, my comrades of the war, thai
we have peculiar reasons to be proud
Of one of our fellows who served with
us in that war and under whom durinG

whose administration Cuba has taken

ports satisfactory progress in the
building of this new line and that 1t

Island.
Arrival OF the Dixie With Sup.

Confidence.
They Believe the Island Is Des.
tined to Be Destroyed
by Fire.

Port de France, May 22.-Streams of
frightened refugees have been pouring
into Fort de France from all the sur
rounding country. These people are
not destitute, but terrified. They want
only one thing, that is to be taken far
away from the island, With which they
say the gods are angry.
Consuls here and officers of war yes
sells in the harbor are waylaid by per-
sons crazed with fear and begging to
be carried away.
The weather is now calm and beauti-
| full. but the mountain is yelled in VOL
canic clouds, which often assume a
very threatening aspect, and Occasional,
rumblings are heard, and some heavy
volleys. A welcome rain fell yesterday
morning.
The United States steamer Dixie,
Capt. Berry, from New York, has ar
rived after quick and safe passage.
Her passengers include many world
famous scientists, magazine writer's
and correspondents. The Dixie began
landing her enormous cargo OF supplies
early. The storehouse on the shore
soon became congested. and this is the
greatest difficulty of the administra-
ton.
The United States steamer Potomas,
which went to inspect st. Pierre, with
the commander of the war vessels, is
now here. With the greatest difficulty
t+l in
landing. The effect of the outburst
Tuesday was tremendous. The huge
basalt towers of the cathedral were
hurled fat to the earth. The lombard
ment of volacnic stones was not sufii-
cient to account for this, and all evil
dences point OF the passage Of furious
blast of blazing gas, travelling at enor-
nous speed and with incalculab.e
force. The deposit of bolders ashes ana
angular stones was enormous. Not
human being saw what happened at
st. Pierre Tuesday morning. Fort de
France is overwhelmed.
This second eruption was many times
more violent than that which effected
ST. Pierre and swept it's people from
the earth Nor has all the volcanic ac-
tivity ceased. Vast clouds of smoke and
gas still pour from the great crater;
new fisures have opened on the noun
tain sides and are vomiting yellow
whirlwinds. which rush intermittently
now from one point and now from an
other Boiling mud is also thrown out
at times in torrents that reach the sea
and produce small tidal waves.
From that somber, silent city of death
and desolation, st. Pierre has become
Ia hideous amphitheater of fiery. roar
ing destruction. Even Fort de France
is believed to be unsafe. The presence
of relief ships, however, is helpful to the
people, who say the American flag
makes safety"
The Potomac could not approach to
ST. Pierre The Dixie will sail today for
st. Vincent, but the other vessels will
remain.
The outburst of yesterday probably
means the ruin of the island, as all con-
fidence is lost" We want not food, but
only to leave" is the cry of rich and
poor.
