whclmcd in an instant and every soul
in the place persisted. Ajoupa Boullon
WAS struck by the river of mud and
flying volcano stones and not build

when the eruption occurred and a
short time aftcrward tidal wave
swept the whole coast. lie Carbct, Il
village near the base of Mont Pclce,
was flooded and many of the inlab-
itnnts drowned. After the explosion
more than a mile of HE east end of
the island sank into the sea.
The inhabitants of Martinique are
pnnicstricllcn and clnmuring to leave
the island. They believe that the
whole island is doomed to destruction,

A New History of Philosophy.

Rev. William Turner, D. D., pro-
fessor of logic, metaphysics and the
history Of philosophy at st. Paul's
Theological Seminary, Groveland Park,
st. Paul. Mimi, spent his vacation in
and around Boston, Mass, in which
city he is publishing with CHM & Co.
a new history Of philosophy which
will be ready in November OF the
forthcoming textbook the Boston
Pilot says:
Nearly one-third Of it is devoted
to the history of scholastic philosophy.
The coplous extracts from the writings
Of the schoolmcn embol died in the text
give an insight into movement of
thought which all teachers of philoso-
ply recognize to be important, but
which is practically inaccessible to
most students Of philosophy. The &C.
count of the religio-philosophical sys-
TENS OF Babylon, India, etc, will be
appreciated not only for the interest
which these systems possess in them
selves, but also OH account of their
relation to the beginnings Of philo.
sophical speculation in Greece. The
history Of modern philosophy Is
brought down to the end OF the Nine
tenth Century so as to include the
Neo-1Lcgcllanism, Nco-Voluntarism and
Neo-Scholasticism, which command so
much attention ut the present time.
Throughout the work, care is taken to
Indicate the sources which may be con-
venicntly consulted by students and
at the end Of each section critical sug-
gestions are offered for the purpose Of
encouraging students to form a judg-
ment as to the truth and value Of each
successive contribution to philosophic
thought

never been a time in the history of the
