Mt. Pelee's Disfigured Sides.
Off to the left, in shimmering, blue
gray mist Mt. Pelee stands, still breath
ing heavily and angrily after the
exertion of the Tuesday May 10th erup-
tion. The omnipresent cloud cap rolls
slowly way to sea and down the SEAM
ed, Scared side of the volcano innurn-
cradle jets of vapor rise, some of them
two hundred feet in air. The wide
rivers of mud which spring from the
crater aud ooze continuously into the
sea, steam, and fume throughout their
length.
Mt. Pelee has been shattered by its
efforts. It's sides are riven. 1t impres-
ses one as undermined, honeycombed,
a great earthen shell. Huge and for
midab1e as it is the riffs and gorges
which stripe it deeply from head to
foot suggest that one surprising con
vulsion might blow the wholething into
the sea. Those who were familiar
with Mr.. PelSe before May s, and have
seen it since, say that it has undergone
amazing structural changes. They
point to great ridges running from the
sea to the mountains summit and say
"Those were never there until the
eruption-they were valleys" And they
say also that the deep valleys with the
vapor clouds above them once were hills
clothed with sugar plantations. If one
can believe from what his eyes see that
a single sprig of green ever existed OF
Pelee one can believe anything.
So dense is the cloud-mass above MI
Pelee that opportunities to observe the
crater outline are rare. But by gooo
fortune, as we are nearing the shore
the breeze lifts for one brief moment
the cloud caps and uncovers Pelee's
disfgured head. The apex of Morne
La Croix, the overtopping cone of the
mountain pile, has disappeared: In its
place is a V-shaped cash, wide and
deep, and extending from it a thousand
feet down the western declivity Of the
mountain, ragged fssure. This is
thought to have been the place OF issu-

Fertile Fields Beside Ashen Plains,

Upon this green paradise Mont
Pelee first vented its rage, blotting it
out and burying it beneath yards of
blast-driven, drifting ashes. Not stick
nor a twig is to be seen. Pelee rises
in hot, bare, dusty slopes from the sea
TO the clouds. Its appearance suggests
an intense internal heat and per-
ilously thin crust. Perhaps it is gather
ing strength for the final effort.
The vagaries of the blast which swept
St. Pierre are forcibly revealed in the
appearance of the ridges rising behind
the city. The one which walled the
city at the back is of course stripped

and covered with ashes; the next one
has scared, but still standing, trees
upon it, and the third is untouched
Sloping, fertile fields cover it, and it
looks, probably, Just as it did before
Pelee slipped its bonds. The line bet
ween life and death in these hills is as
sharply drawn as if ruled upon paper
On the beach at the foot of the Rue
Turail we make our landing, perforce
an agile one, because, periodically, six
feet Of water intervene between the
bows of the boats and the dry sand.

wave, and find themselves knee deep

A GREAT PRESIDENT.
Roosevelt Has Proven Himself Cau-
tiOus s.nd Conservative, Patient
and Steadfast,

Those who have imagined Theodore
Roosevelt to be impulsive in temper or
rash in action have only to consider
his conduct of the last few weeks to be
convinced of their error, says the Chi
cago Inter Ocean.
BY his Intervention in the coal strike
the president was doing his duty-not
duty enjoined upon him by the letter
of the law, but inherent in his Office
the duty of every chosen magistrate
of the people to take heed of the peo-
pies welfare-the duty of a chosen
leader to lead.
In the discharge of this plain duty
Theodore Roosevelt found his motives
maligned, his mandate from the peo-
pie denied, his good intentions secuted,
his benevolence houted, his guests in
suited in his presence, his appeals wan
tonly disregarded, the dignity of his
office trampled upon and his purpos es
in> n>oently defied.
If Theodore Roosevelt had been
really impulsive, rash, hasty or head
strong here was situation in which
those qualities would have appeared.
No impulsive man. no man without the
fullest control over himself, would
have endured these atfronts to hims elf
and 10 the dignity of his great office.
If Theodore Roosevelt had for one
instant forgotten that he was presi-
dent Of the United States and as such
must be ever ready to sink personal
consideration and to make any indi-
vidual sacrifice for the public good, he
would have resented these affronts
with every one of the vast and multi

RAILROAD ACCIDENTS.
More than $500 Persons Were Killed
and 38.SO0 Injured I'm This Country
During One Year.

Washington, Oct. 22.-The number
of persons killed in train accidents
during the months of April, May and
June last, as shown by bulletin is
sued yesterday by the Interstate
commerce commission, giving the
reports made by the railroad COM
panies, was 40, and the injured 1,s1O.
Accidents of other kinds, including
those sustained by employees while at
work and by passengers getting on
or off cars, etc, swells the aggregate
to GIG killed and $500 injurd, or
total of 10,136 casualties.
The total number of collisions and
derailments was 2.O10, of which 1904
were collisions. Of these 157 COLI
sions and 101 derailments affected
passenger trains. The damage result
ing to cars, engines and roadway by
these accidents aggregated $l,St3,s33
The average loss by each collision
was approximately 1924 and by each
derailment SG95.
The total casualties during the
fiscal year ended June 80 last. includ-
ing the above figures, was 2.S13 killed
and 39,sOO injured. The number OF
employees killed showed a diminution
of 6S per cent. since 1893. when the
safety appliance act was passed, and
this decrease has occurred notwith-

DON'T FORGET 1904.
Democrats Striving to Lead ths Peo-
pie Into IA Repetition of the Grf.v-
Gus Mistake of That Year.

Exactly ten years ago the majority
of the people Of the United States was
being misled into the disastrous blum
der whose results were for four years
thereafter a source of constant and
deep regret to thousands of honest
voters who had permitted specious
misrepresentation temporarily to
overcome their intelligence and good
judgment.
Believing that memory is short
enough already to have left behind he
bitter experience of those years, the
democratic party is seeking to mislead
the people into a repetition of their
grievous mistake of decade ago, says
the Albany journal.
Then the cry was that ''the tariff is
a tax" Now it is, that the tariff IS the
mother of trusts" Then the specious
argument was that the equivalent of
the respective import duties was ad-
ded to the prices Of the commodities
upon which duties were imposed. Now
it is that the tariff is enabling the great
industrial combinations to exist, that
they are expressing and robbing the
people-the statement is made gener-
al: specific instances are never cited
and that therefore the combinations
should be destroyed through abolition
of the tariff.
1t is in order at this time. when an.
other attack upon the protective sys-
tenn is being made, for every American
citizen to think back to the time when
the Wilson law had removed part Of

nounced as tax. Commodities be-.

The coal strike, with all the ex.
pense, Inconvenience and suffering
which ithas caused
has afforded an
"""S Si"'' therillustration of
the general good nature of the Amer.
lean people, and their willingness to
find something amusing even in their
owninconvenience. If one could gather,
observes the Youths Companion, all
the humorous paragraphs which the
newspapers have printed in regard to
the price of coal, he would have mate
rial enough for book, and a clever
and amusing book it would be. Nor
is the editor by any means the only
one who has had his little joke. The
jeweler displays on a piece of cotton
batting in his window piece of coal
the size of his thumb-nail, with the
legend: Genuine, old-mine anthracite
coal from Penns sylvania. Not for sale"
The grocer packs an egg-crate with
pieces of coal and puts it on view with
the innocent sign: Forty cents a
dozen The safe dealer labels his
goods: burglar proof coal-bins." This
habis Of laughing at discomforts and
making a joke of adversely is no new
trait in American character. 1t APP
peared during the Spanish-American
war, when men charged ioyously to
the air of "There'll BE a Hot Time in
the Old Town Tonight" 1t showed
itself IN humorous songs sung in Libby
prison and practical jokes perpetrated
in Andersonyille. 1t cropped out in
that southern cavalryman who was of
fered $4,000 in confederate currency
Tor his horse, and replied with a grin
that he had just paid $4,000 to have
him shod. Ability to brush aside care,
and even danger, with a laugh, so far
from being an indication of weakness
or sponsibility, is rather a sign
OF strength, and decidedly a source of
strength. Lincoln, most typical of
Americans, was typical in this. His
Jokes are history as well as literature.
yet many of them were born of circum-
stances which, to man who lacked the
saving salt of humor, would have been
tragic.
