A CLOUD OF HOT GAS.
On the Fringe of an Eruption Like That
of Pelee,

Prof. Robert Hills Study of Pelee,"
i'll the Century, contains this description
of an eruption of the volcano of the
sort which he thinks destroyed st. Pierre.
He was at Frond st. Denis when it oc-
Cured, May %. He says:
stepping out of the door, I saw be-
fore me perfect tropical night. Not
cloud obscured the starlit armament.
Suddenly to the north and above Pelee,
there was dull flare of light like the
sheet-hghtning of summer storm. This
was the reflection of the incandeScent
molten mass within. Following this, a
great spherical cloud, with hundreds of
boiling and seething convOlutiOns, slowly
rose above the vent. 1t had hardly APP
peared before it was followed by a blind
ing flash of light, like a great gun-fash,
from the mouth of the crater, accompa-
MED by long, deep-pitched detonations
from the bosom of the mountain. Over
the craters rim followed a mountain
shower of incandescent pumice, which
looked like molten fire. Hardly had the
cioud-ball reached the air when around
and through it flashed a thousand light
ning-like streaks, with here and there
great balls of fire. While standing in
mute amazement observing this phenom-
enOn at the apparently safe distance of
some three miles, | was Mortified to see
the cloud fall suddenly. flatten, and float
out horizontally into the sky like an
aerial river directly toward and above

for me to see that it was not to be es-
capped by running.

DRINK SEA WATER.
Cockatoos and Wild Pigeons Do Net
Seem to Mind 1t.

''In 1881, while resident on GaZclle
peninsula, the northern portion of the
magnificent Island of New Britain. in
the South Pacific. | had many oppor-
tunities of witnessing both cockatooS and
wild pigeons drinking salt water. l was
stationed at a place called Kabaira, the
then farthest-out' trading station on the
whole island; and as | had but little
work to do / found plenty of time to
study bird life in the vicinity. Parrots
of several varieties. all of beautiful
plumage, were plentiful: and great flocks
of white cockatoos frequented the rolling,
grassy downs which lay between my
home and the German head station in
Blanche bay, twenty miles distant. while
the heavy frostS of the littoral was the
haunt of thousands of pigeons. These
pigeons, though not so large as the Sa-
moan or Eastern Polynesian bird, formed
an agreeable change of diet for us white
traders, and by walking about fifty yards
from ones door half a dozen or more
could be shot in as many minutes.
My nearest neighbOr was a German,
and one day when we were walking to-
ward his station l noticed some hundreds
of pigeons fly down from the forest. set

A Grand Rapids dispatch notes the
fact that $500 bushels of first-class Bar
nard and Crawford peaches were sold to
the commission houses of that city for
from 80 to 80 cents bushel, and that sew
eralhundred bushels of fairly good peaches
sold for Is cents a bushel. This will
interest housekeepers who are looking for
fruit for preserving and picking. But
the low prices mentioned were the result
of a corner on baskets and covers by the
commission men who prOited by the de-
preston Of the market. The peach grow
ers are contemplating the establishment
of basket factory in order to prevent
future robbery by the middle men, and
if they should make their own baskets
perhaps the fruit consumers might be
able to share in the benefits of big crops.
The growers are having unmistakable
evidence that monopolists are not philan-
thropic in their tendencies.

| Mussen, but he didn't want to get shot.
So he suggested that Belden and White
field act as seconds, and that when the
meeting came they should see that moth
ing more deadly than blank cartridges
We're placed in the weapons. Belden and
Nhitetield agreed to this as the best way
to escape a fatal issue; they knew the
mood OF Mussen. So all preliminaries
Were arranged. Alussen agreed to the
seconds, and, of course, was ignorant of
the blank cartridge programme. Then
everybody swore silence and waited for
Key West.
The second day after coming to anchor,
four cutters were lowered from the day-
its into the blue waters of Key West bav.
Four nlidshipmen, each in charge of a
cutter directed the course. Ihey had
| orders from the executive to see that
every inch of the boats was scrubbed
thoroughly with SAND upon the beach.
The boats took the beach around past the
old stone fort, out of sight of the ship.
A dozen men thrOnged about each boat.
and We're soon busy at the work The
four midshipmen sauntered off in a care
less way down the beach.
Out of sight of the boats, Belden and
Whitefield quickly measured Off the regu-
lation fifteen PAGES. Then they placed
the principals in their respective posi-
tions, Dansyl with an evident display of
bIavado, and Mussen grave and deter
mined looking. Whitefield and Belden
then tremendously drew out two huge
navy revolvers from beneath their
blouses, and affected to examine them
very carefully. Dansyl almost betrayed
the situation by smiling as he thought
how beautifully his joke was coming on.
Then the seconds advanced, each with a
pistol for his principal. Dansyl grasped
his confidently; but Mussen, with a queer
look, demanded, Are these pistols
loaded?'
"They are the seconds responded
quietly, and Dansyls red cheeks suddenly
grew a shade paler
Draw the cartridges" cried Mussen.
Il must be sure. This is no joke as far
as / am concerned
won't you take the word of a gentle
MANI Dansyl said eagerly.
"Silence," interrupted Mussen, as he
snatched one of the cartridges from the
chamber, examined it, and threw cart
ridge and pistol far down the beach, to
the establishment of the others. Then
he drew from his breast another pistol.
Dansyl blanched and trembled slightly at
the sight of it, but, recovering himself
he turned and ran. Mussen, in the ex-
element of the moment, fired a shot
after the fleeing figure, the rising smoke
of which was detected by the eagle eye
of the officer of the deck on board. But
he never discovered the cause of that
smoke, whether by threats or other
means. The four midshipmen's lips were
sealed.
Neither did he nor the rest of the ships
| company, officers or men, discover why
Dansyl suddenly resigned from the serv-
ice and went home in the steamer-New
