An Extraordinary similarity.

As a result of recent examinations
Of the crater of Mont Pelee and eN-
vibrations Of the track Of the de-
yastating blast which destroyed ST.
Pierre, il appears that there is ex-
traordinary similarity between the
eruptions Of the Soufriere volcano
of 81. Vincent and Mont Pclee. The
products are the same. both are
characterized by the absence OF ava
and the work Of destruction, both 70

was accomplished in much the same
way. The destructive effects OF the
errlption in st. Vincent covered a
much more extensive area, but the
loss of human life was much less.

PADEREWsKI CONCERT.
Topeka People Interested in Kansas
City Engagement.

There will be a great line up next
Monday morning in Kansas City for
seats for the engagement of Paderewsh
March II in Convention hall. Topeka is
more fortunate than other towns in
Kansas, for choice sections will be
placed on sale here at the, w. F. Roehr
Music company simultaneously with the
opening of the sale in Kansas City.
These chairs are reserved especially for
people in Topeka and surrounding
towns and this arrangement does away
with the uncertainties encountered in
ordering seats by mail.
1t is expected there will be a box
party or two made up of Topeka people.
Boxes seating ten are 500 and Altman
Barrett, who is bringing Paderewsli to
Kansas City, expects to sell every box
at private sale before the chart opens
Monday. The prices for seats are 81, $3.50
and 81, half those in other cities.
At a great expense a sound shell stage
will be built in Convention hall, and in
addition a canvas ceiling will be put in
expressly for the Paderewsli concert
This arrangement will greatly reduce
the seating capacity, but every seat will
be desirable, and by this novel plan the
best acoustic properties are insured.

AT THE PLAY LAST NIGHT.

Miss Anna Eva Fay, who began a
three nights engagement at the Craw-
ford last night, is a close second to

of brain fever, he should forget it. and

Is her own personal game and would
lose davor if the public could readily
solve the mystery. But there is little
danger of her performance growing
tiresome for this reason. The cabinet
tricks done by Miss Fay in the first
part are familiar, but none the less
mysterious. While lawyer and a
newspaper man chosen from the audi
ence held Miss Fay's hands she seemed
TO be responsible for a medley of dis
cordant sounds which came from a
canopied booth in the rear and the
noise was quickly followed by the mu-
steal instruments, which We're thrown
