FUTURE OF PELEE,

Captain Barry of the Cruiser Dixie,
just returned to New York from bear
ing supplies to the volcano victims in
the west indies says regarding cOndi-
tions in the island: Conditions are not
as bad on Martinique as on ST. Vincen.
because on Martinique the people are
fairly well supplied with everything
and there is no danger in future erup-
tons. Only a small area of II square
miles has been devasted, but on St
Vincent the destruction extends over a
third of the island. Plantations, or
chards and everything have been ruin
ed, and the means of subsistence has
been taken away from the people, and
thousands have been left in need of
some kind of support" OF the scienti-
fic results of the DiXie's expedition,

Michigan said: THE oVerheated rock,
bursting against the water near the
base of the mountain, caused super

Prof. Hill, who investigated the out
break for the government, said:
Months Will be required for the final
scientific decisions. We have had an
eminently satisfactory trip. The rocks
and volcanic matters which we have
collected must be cut into sections and
analysed before we can give extended
opinions for publication" Prof. Hill

observations in the Caribbean district

IN FEDERAL COURTS
DUTIES AND POWERS OF THE
COMMISSIONER.
Business That May Be Done During
the Vacation Absence of United
States Judge Estee.

In view of the coming vacation of
the United States District Court, the
question of the powers and duties of
the United States Commissioner is of
interest to attorneys and others inter
ested in Federal Court matters. Judge
Estee yesterday stated that the Com
mssiOner's duties would continue dur
ing vacation. A recent decision of the
United States Supreme Court on the
subject contained the following as to
United States Commissioners:
The duties of these officers are pres
cribed by law ana they are in general:
ITO issue warrants for offenses
against the United States Ito cause the
offenders to be arrested and impris-
Uned, or bailed, for trial, and to order
the removal of offenders to other dis
tricts.
ITO hold to security of the peace and
for good behavior.
ITO carry into effect the award or
arbitration or decree of any consul of
any foreign nation ito sit as judge or
arbitrator in such differences as may
arise between the captains and crews
of any vessels belonging to the nations
whose interests are committed to his
charge; and TO enforce obedience by
imprisonment until such award, arbi-
tration or decree is complied with To
take bail and aftidavitS in civil cases.
TO discharge poor conVicts imprisoned
fUr nUu-pd yurut of fines. To take
oaths and acknowledgements To insti-
tute prosecutions under the laws re-
latinS to crimes against the elective
franchise and civil rights of citizens
and to appoint persons to execute war
rants hereunder.
ITO issue search warrants authoriz-
ing internal revenue officers to search
premises where a fraud upon the rev.
enue has been committed. To issue
warrants for deserving seamen.
ITO summon masters of vessels to
appear before him and show cause
why process should not issue against
such vessels.
persons charged with being fugitives
from justice.
ITO issue orders for deportation b
Chinese found to be unlawfully in the
United States"
Besides these general powers the
Court may in it's discretion grant still
greater powers to the Commissioners
In some districts on the Mainland the
court has ordered that orders of de-
portatior issued by the Commissioner
shall be entered by the clerk in the
records of the court and upon beirg So
entered shall stand as the order OF the
court.
The court may also refer matters at
law, in equity ana in admiralty to the
Commissioner to take the testimony
and report findings.

CHOLERA MORBUs A DANGEROUS
DISEASE.

In many instances attacks of cho-
lera morbus terminate fatally before
medicine can be procured or a physi-
clan summoned. The safe way is to
keep at hand a reliable medicine for
use in such cases. For this purpose
there is nothing so sure as Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. w. f. BOsworth, of LaFay-
cite, Ala, u. S. A., says: "In June,
1900, I had a serious attack of cholera
mOrbus and one dose of Chamberlain

"Fuss and Feathers"

Ifsome ministers do not exercise
more discretion in their remarks
they are likely to find themselves
with the necessity of preaching to
''absent Seats" as one of them ex-
pressed himself in viewing the va
cant pews. Rev. ]. H. Rasmus is
reported to have said to his 5000
hearers in his church at Chicago
last Sunday:
"Many women go to church to
show their costly headgear. The
church was never intended to be a
millinery establishment, but was es-
tablished for much better purposes.
There would be more faith if there
were less feathers and fuss. The
church should be used only as a
place of worship. Perflmery be-
longs in the same category as millin-
cry, and its odor should never be de-
tected in a house of worship.

That Spooner resolution, with
the string attachment, passed by the
state convention, were "more hon
ored in the breach than the observ-
ance." 1t has been mildly intimated
that the resolution needs explaining,
but it is evident that any explanation
would make it worse for the authors.
1t simply needs ignoring. That is
the easiest and the safest disposition
to make of it. IF adherence to its
demand is insisted upon it will en-
danger the success of the Republi-
can ticket at the polls. The great
majority of the party are DESTROYS to
have Spooner to continue to repre-
sent Wisconsin in the United States
Senate. They know he yields an
influence in the councils of the ma
ton second to no man, fact which
we contemplate with pride and salts
faction. This questionable cleo
ton of a United States Senator
should be regarded as superior to
factional politics. Spooner has no
concern with these local questions,
questions that contemplate theories,
I II,
edged to be of doubtful utility or ex-
pediency, and the attempt to make
the support of the party to the re-
election of Spooner to the Senate
contingent upon his committing
himself to these dogmas of conject-
ural necessity is, to say the least,
mighty small politics.

Insects and Health.

The national Department of Agr1-
culture has issued, as Farmers Bull
letin No. 155, dissertation upon
Glow Insects Affect Health in Rur-
al Districts. This is an important
bulletin, and should be read by
every one living in the country or
in villages-or to state the PROPOSE
ton negatively, all who do not live
in cities supplied with water and
sewer systems.
The bulletin premises that it is an
established fact that a certain Spe-
cies of mosquitoes, the anoph1les,
produce malaria in human beings;
that typhoid fever is disseminated
by the common house fly. Malaria
may be prevented by destroying the
breeding places of the malaria
breeding mosquitoes. The bulletin
gives the distinguishing character
istics of this species of mosquito.
1t states also that these mosquitoes
do not travel far-not more than a
mile from their breeding places.
Oil may be placed on the waters of
pools infested by them and thus
prevent their breeding.
Typhoid fever is country dis
ease-caused by drinking bad wa
ter. The disease may be introduced
from those infected, by flies. Flies
may be prevented from multiplying
by disinfecting their breeding places
which are principally outhouses and
horse stables. Anyone can obtain
this bulletin by writing his repre-
sentative in Congress, or may get it
directly from the Department of
Agriculture by request made to

Agriculture, Washington, d G.

powers Of Europe to meet in an

The United States is not invited to
share in the contemplated delibera-
tons. It is not known what def
mite object Russia has in view in
suggesting the conference or why
no invitation to participate is sent to
the United States. 1t is assumed
that the European governments are
to formulate some plan to counter
act the importation of American

the prolongation of the revolution
NAV prevent the ratification of a
treaty. In the event Of the deter

canal-or as a prerequisite to such a
determination, the Colombian con-
gress must ratify treaty embodying
satisfactory concessions to the United

Praise that Curses.

The anti-imperialists have en-
dorsed President Roosevelt's action
in the case of Gen. J. H. Smith. A
mass meeting of those opposed to
the governments policy in regard
to the Philippines was held in New
York City last spring and a COM
mittee appointed to investigate army
conditions in the islands. This
committee has sent President Roose-
welt commendatory resolution of
his review of Gen. Smiths case and
an approval of his retirement from
the service. This commentator,
coming from such a source, is a
doubtful compliment to the good
Judgment of the President. In fact
it is pretty nearly proofpositive that
in this act Roosevelt was in the
wrong.
