A short time later the physician
was called TO attend the mother in

trees. The old lady died and the
physician presented his bill. After
paying it, the citizen thought OF
the trees and made out and pre-.

New Volcanic phenomen..

Geologists who have visited
Martinique since the terrible errp-
ton Of Mont Pelee, by which the
city of ST. Pierre was destroyed
on May Sth, report that some OF
the phenomena connected with
this volcanic outburst presents
facts that are new to science. A
"tornadic blast consisting OF
scorching gases and dry, super
heated steam, driven with resist
less force ACROSS the island, is
thought by some to have been
chiefly responsible for the sudden
and awful loss OF life. These
fearful blasts were repeated after
the catastrophe, and on May 2oth
they are said 10 have attained an
intensity exceeding that at first
manifested; but this time they
blew only over the dead. The
electric phenomena connected
with the eruption were also of an
extraordinary character.

Mr.. CLEVELAND served two
terms in the White House without
being able to demonstrate ability
to build up and strengthen his
party. Mr.. Bryan had the demo
cratic presidential nomination two
successive times and was not even
able to secure an election to the
high Office. These two gentlemen
have monopolized twenty years OF
the time of the democratic party,
bringing nothing but chaos and
disaster, and it is not at all strange
that there should be robust senti-
