THOUSAND PERSONS PERISH
IL Eruption Of Mount Tacoma In
Guatemala-The Town Of Retaibuten
Buried Under Lava and Ashes.

SAN Francisco, CAL. June o.
Another city in Central America
has suffered almost complete de-
struction and hundreds of It's in
habitants have been killed by vol
canic eruptions.
The steamer PeIena, which arrived
- day from southern ports, brings
the news that the town of Retalbuien.
situated at the foot of Mount
Tacoma, in Guatemala, has been
buried under mass of stones and
ashes thrown from the volcanic
crater, and probably 1000 of its
people have persisted.
The volcano is about twenty-five
miles from Champanico, and near
the town of Tapachulo, which 1t is
believed also suffered severely.
The eruption occurred several
days before the Palena arrived at
Champanico, The vessels officers
were informed by the agent of the
Pacific Steam and Navigation Com
paDy at the place that the volcano
had shown signs of the impending
eruption for several days previous
to the outbreak.

PAUL LEICESTER FORD ON SUI
FRAGE.

Paul Leicester Ford, whose tragic
death in the prime Of his powers
has startled the whole country, was
man Of progressive ideas in many
respects. Among other things, he
believed in the ballot for women.
In his novel "The Honorable Peter
Sterling" he makes the hero say
Broadly speaking, all persons of
sound mind arc entitled to vote on
the men and the laws which are to
govern them. Aside from this, every
ounce of brain or experience you
can add to the ballot makes it more
certain. Suppose you say that half
the people are too ignorant to vote
sensibly. Don't you see that there
is an even chance, at least, that
they'll vote rightly, and if the wrong
half carries the election, ii is
because more intelligent people have
voted arongly have not voted, or
have not taken the trouble to try
and show the people the right way,
but have left them to the mcicies of
the demagogues? II we grant that
every man who takes care of himself
has some brain, and some experience
his vote is Of some value even If not
high one. Suppose we have an
eagle and thousand pennies.
Are we any better off by tossing
away the coppers, because each is
worth so little2 That is why have
always advocated giving the fran
chse to women. If we can add ten
million voters TO an election, we
have just added so much knowledge
To il, and made it just so much the
harder TO mislead or buy enough
votes to change results"

THE SENATORIAL WAR.

The contest for the Senatorship
between Senator Scott and Cald-
well down in the southern part of
the State has been very warm, and
at convention held the other day
they had regular battle, described
as follows in dispatch sent out
from Huntington, which makes
good reading
Col. ]. M. Fuller of Wayne coun-
ty, who for few months has been
temporarily residing in Huntington,
was able to return here this morning
from the Senatorial convention at
WEIGH, Mcdowell county. He was
accompanied by party of friends,
and at least forty local Republicans
met his train al Kenova. Col. Full
Ter is yet in rather serious condi-
ton. He received two fearful blows
across the back OF his head. One
cash was nearly -four irehes long.
the other about two and Z half.
required about twenty. seven stitches
to close the gaping wound. He IS
yet very weak from loss OF blood,
but physicians claim that there is
no occasion for his wounds result.
ing seriously. Col. Fuller was
chairman of the Caldwell forces at
the split convention at Welch.
He says that when he mounted
the stand he realized there was 20.
ing to be trouble, as the Scott fol-
lowers in Mcdowell during the
morning had thrown out numerous
threats. He had good gun in each
hip pocket and was nervy enough
to have used them, but he was slip.
ped upon from behind and struck
twice while in the Judges stand.
Col. Fuller has luxurisnt growth
of whiskers, and he says he remem-
bers distinctly that Gen. Rucker
seized these and attempted to pull
him from the chairman's stand. He
was scuffling with the General when
the two blows we're inflicted from
behind by another party. All was
confusion from then on.

Writing from Paris, Walter
Williams, Worlds fair representative
abroad, says. IL visited a number
of the large journals and interviewed
the chief editors regarding the pro-
posed Worlds Parliament of Editors
at st. Louis. There was the most
general interest expressed and q un-
animous desire to attend. All
agreed to publish articles concern
ing the Parliament and incidentally
the Exposition and to do so now
and hereafter free, which, / am
informed, is almost unexampled in
Partisan journalism.
"Therc is the kindest feeling
toward America just now and the
Exposition will reap benefit there.
from. One hears on all sides most
cordial expressions of admiration
and good will. France will un-
questionably make at St. Louis the
largest, finest and most attractive
exhibit ever made by any European
country at foreign exposition.
The press is aiding the government
to bring this about.
There is general approval here
OF the postponement until 1904.
Many exhibitors so the editors tell
me say, that, while they would have
been represented in 1903, they can
do double as we'll the follwing year.
They are especially pleased that the
postponement should be on account
OF the consideration shown to
foreign exhibitors and foreign
nations"

., what is so rare az a day in
June, that ends all too soon. Month
of roses, brides and sweet girl grad
yates, how we love this gladstone
season when all nature is at her
best and Mother Earth arrayed in
her finest costume of green and
floral trimmings. Although the days
are the longest of the year, the
month is gone all too soon. But
think of the happiness and festivity
crowded into the thirty days of this
Queen Month of the year. The
sweet girl and proud boy graduates !;
the happy and smiling parents the
bridal roses and wedding marches I;
the honey moon trips to the falls,
the mountains and the seashore
the playful lambs and calves that
gambol on the green; the little
chicks growing big enough for a
Fourth of July fry the chirping
birds in the cherry trees and the
old hens in the flower beds. We
could go on naming the joys of this
pleasant summer time, till the reader
would welcome dog days as a relief,
but enough of this spice of life.
