 In 1854 three hundred Jews were expelled from Brazil and Were given a welcome to this Is land, and by 1858 the mum Der of the people, exclusive of the 1 Garibs, reached about 5000, but were soon afterward exter- minated
 France purchased the islands from the children of Duparquet for 120,O00 livres, or less than S25, ,0OO in American coin. It was several times afterwards in the hands of the British, but since 1915 has been a French possession.
 The main products of the is land were from cotton and to- bacco, but later sugar and coffee became the cheif feature of agri- cultural production. It was a long while a slave country, but slavery was abolished in 1S4S. The great mass of population consists of Creole negroes and half castes of various types, but the island Is almost as thickly populated as Belgium.
 The exports arc mainly sugar and rum; amounting to an an nual average of 2O,O00,O00 francs. St. Pierre had a popula- ton estimated at 25,000 peo- pie, all of whom are reported to have been destroyed by the great volcanic eruption. In 1o- 39 an earthquake destroyed a great portion of the town, and since then the houses have all been built of wood huts, only one story. At a later date a hurricane killed about nine thousand people. The streets were laid out with great regu- larity and were beautiful shaded thoroughfares, ornamented by tropical trees.
 It is possible that the terrific loss of life may be modified by later reports, but at best 1t now seems that since the first centu- TX of the Christian era, when Herculaneum and Pompeii were destroyed in a similar manner the twentieth century was left to surpass this great calamity ill the Western hemisphere. Mar unique and St. Pierre are not elassed on the list of the most moral countries in the world, but on the contrary among the most dissolute. The estimate that 66 per cent. of all the births on the island are illigitimate is sufficient evidence to show the state of native morality.
 The United States is now the owner of the Danish and Span ish islands of the West Indies, and the volcanoes of the Hawai- ian islands of the Pacific.
 Now perhaps the French may want to part with her volcanic islands i'll the Caribbean sea. IT so, Uncle Sam will be in the mar ket, no doubt, and have anoth- field upon which to spread his civilizing influence

that he had signed with the Western

most dreadfully yesterday morning when
he discovered that Manager Kelley was
finding new ones just about as fast as
the Buffalo pirate was wiring offers.
Gribbin, the new pitcher signed by
Kelley, batted up around the 20 mark
in the Southern league last season and
fielded up with the best Of them.
Frank Zalusky, the Minneapolis boy
brought out by Walter Wilmot last sea-
son, is sure making good in the back
stop department Of the Chicago Orphan
aggregation. Bryce, Of Columbus. claims
that Zalusky should fit himself into a
Columbus uniform when the bell rings
The painted chairs and bleacher seats
at the Nicollet park, Minneapolis, should
be used up every afternoon during the
coming season. Wilmot was a real
shrewd one when he announced one John
son as the treasurer Of the team. The
Johnson name sure should get to the citi-
zens who vote for Doc Ames.
Columbus is telling all the world about
It's rooters' club. These noisy ones VIII
boost when they can, and when then
can't they will refuse to knock. All this
sounds fine and dandy just before the
getaway, but John Grim is still getting
his players into the best shape possible.
Young Thielman, another Minnesota
boy, Is making good in the big league.
Thielman threw them over for Manhat-
tan college last season and was so good
that the New York management went
after him. He was signed TO pitch but
was tried out at short the other day and
made a showing that may win him the
regular infield position.

CHICAGO'S GREAT POLE VAULTER
BREAKS HIS COLLARBONE.

CHICAGO, April 5-Jerome Magee, the
great pole vaulter at the University Of
chicago, who has recently established
the new indoor worlds record Of II feet 5
inches in the vault is out of athletics for
several weeks with a broken collar bone
Magee broke his collarbone while playing
football two years ago, and it never
healed properly. Last Saturday night he
injured himself while going over the bar
at only 10 feet inches in the First regi,
ment meet, and had to give up the con-
test. Upon examination after he reach
ed home, 1t was found that the old break
had sustained a second fracture This
fact was not known to any persons ar
the university except his most intimate
friends until yesterday.
Magee was counted on as a sure win
ner OF points in the Western conference
meet this year, and his injury materially
decreases the chances of Chicago's tax

year in track athletics. Magee is the
only vaulter in Stages team who can do

NEW YORK, April 5-If pool rooms

other agency acting in the interests of
the present administration, sensational
raids will be witnessed in the metropoli-
tan race courses during the coming sea-
son. The plan Of retaliation was decided
yesterday at a meeting of pool room
keepers.
Already the pool room men have con-
ferred with their attorneys, among whom
are Lawyers Dos Passos and Steinhardt,
and the later has been instructed to
make all preliminary legal preparations
for the coming raids on the track book
makers.
IF we cannot make books in the city,
said a well known bookmaker today,
then we will see to it that there will
be no gambling on the race tracks this
summer. We can claim rightfully that
the law under which betting on race
horses in this state is tolerated makes
fish of one and flesh Of another We pool
room keepers in the city have just as
much the legal right, we claim, to con-
duct business in the city as bookmakers
have on the race tracks,"
