Lava Streams

1t is scientifically reported that the
lava streams IRON Vesuvius in 1858
were so hot twelve years later that
steam was issuing from the cracks
and creyices, while the lava beds from
the eruption of Etna in 1877 were
found to be steaming hot just below
the top crust as late as 1910. But still
more remarkable are the scientific re-
ports of the volcano Jorullo, in Next
CO. This sent forth immense streams
of lava in 1850. In 1850 the lava beds
were examined by a party of scien-
lists, and it was found that stick
thrust into the creyiceS instantly ig-
nited, although there was no diScOm-
fort experienced in walking on the
hardened crust Again some forty
years after the eruption it was visited
by scientists and repOleed to be steam
ing in many places, and even eighty
seven years after the eruption two col
umnS Of Steaming vapOr were found to
be issuing from the crevices. Some
times the upper crust of such stream
of lava cools SO that plants and lichenS
find precarious growth on the surface,
while few feet beneath the lava is
almost redhot.

Baths In Finland.

One of the greatest trials visitor in
Finland has to endure is a Finnish
bath The method Of procedure is
unique Divested of outer clothing and
attired in light and airy cotton gar
ment, you are slung in sort Of ham
mock composed of cord above a large
receptacle like the boilers in public
laundries. This is almost filled with
cold water, into which at the right mo-
ment is flung large redhot brick CT
piece Of iron. which of course causes
an overwhelming rush of steam to as
cend and almost choke you. Then
when that process has gone on sutti-
GENTLY long you are shaken out Of your
hammock, immersed in cold water, and
after very drastic treatment you re-
sumo your raiment, sadder and wiser
than before your novel experience.

Her Mistake.

Two elderly women and an old man,
evident strangers in the city and who
were carefully guarding a huge tele-
scope between them, stood in front Of
the Grand for an hour the other day,
waiting for some kind soul to direct
them to the residence of friend they
had come to visit. The noise and bus
tie of the city evidently confused them,
and they stood bewildered, not know
ing which way to turn. Finally one
of the women plucked up courage to
address a man who was passing, say
ing, could you tell me where Will
Blank lives?"

"Why, VIII Blank. He used to live
next door to us at Linton. and we have
come in to see him."
The man had to acknowledge he had
never even heard of Will Blank, and
the old lady turned away with scorn-
full smile, saying, ooh, l thought per-
haps you lived here" - Indianapolis

GATES QUITS OFFICE
director of Colorado Fuel Company Re
signs-ActiOn a Surprise to the
OSgOOd People.

Denver, Aug. pa financial sur
prise of great import was sprung late
at night when John w. Gates, John
Lambert. J. J. Mitchell and James A
Blair, who claim to hold majority of
che stock in the Colorado Fuel and Iron
company, resigned as directors, their
designations to take place Immediately.
1t was also announced that the Gates
party would leave Immediately for
New York and that the fight would be
transferred from Colorado.
This action was taken after the Os-
good faction had secured an injunction
restraining Gates. Mitchell, Blair,
Lambert and other stockholders of the
company from holding an annual meet
Ing and electing officers. This at first
appeared to be onlya ruse to gain time,
but the action of Mr.. Gates and his
companions in resigning has thrown
the OsgOOd faction into CONSERVATION

TO MAKE IRELAND A CARDINAL
Vatican Urged to Give the ST. Paul Prelato
a Red Hat and Jurisdiction
Over Entire West.

Rome, Aug. 25.-Strong pressure is
being brought to bear on the Vatican
to have Archbishop Ireland elevated
to the rank of cardinal and placed in
charge of the archbishOpric of Chicago,
with jurisdiction over the west, Car
dinal Gibbons retaining jurisdiction
over the east. The pressure to have
Archbishop Ireland made a cardinal
has assumed imposing proportions. 1t
is represented to the Vatican that a
red hat is due the st. Paul prelate for
his success in negotiating for the dis
patch of the Taft mission to Rome.
Some of Archbishop Ireland's friends
are SO influential that the Vatican
would like to satisfy them, but there
is reluctance to give America more
than one cardinal. The plan of having
Archbishop Ireland made cardinal of
the curia, residing in Rome. is op-
posed by other cardinals of the curia,
who find him to clever, too progressive,
