the holidays and pressing apprOpria-

NEW YORK, June captain Barry
of the cruiser Dixie, just returned from
bearing supplies to the volcano victims
in the West Indies, said regarding con-
ditions in the islands:
Conditions are not as bad on Mar
Unique as on st. Vincent, because on
Martinique the people are fairly well
supplied with everything and there is no
danger in future eruptions. Only a
small area of twelve square miles has
been devastated but on st. Vincent the
destruction extends over a third of the
island. Plantations, orchards and
everything have been ruined and the
means of subsistence has been taken
away from the people and thousands
have been left in need of some kind Of
support"

Professor Hill, who investigated the

Months will be required for the final
scientific decisions. We have had an
eminently satisfactory trip. The rocks
and volcanic matter which We have col
lected must be cut into pieces and
analysed before We can give extended
opinions for publication"
Professor Hill advocates the estab-
lishment of scientific observations m

themselves clearly and concisely in
their own language"
The report condemns the systems of
both WOolwich and Sandhurst, where
education is far from satisfactory,
the instructors having no inducement

forbidden.

The Friar Question.

Judge Taft had his farewell audience
with the Pope today said a student OF
affairs last night, land he will soon re-
turn to Manila and there continue nego-
tiations with the Pope's. personal repre-
sentative for settlement of the friars
question.
THE new papal delegate for the Philip
pines has not yet been named. II IS said
that Judge Taft has intimated to the
vatican that an American prelate for this
semi-diplomatic mission would be pre-
ferred by the United States, but that the
vatican authorities take the ground that
9ny ecclesicastic other than an American
would best fill the bill, because he would
be freer from bias.
MY idea is that a tactful and LIBERAL
minded American bishop would be the
man of all others to represent the Pope
at Manila. Archbishop Keane, 1 am in-
clined to think would make an ideal
apostolic delegate at this time"

THE BAD MANS STRENGTH.

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
1t is interesting, though not entirely
edifying to find number of newspapers
throughout the country taking the re-
markable doings of Tracy, in oregon
and washington. to be those of a man
of wonderful courage. GOODNESS, judg-
ment and nerve, who might have been
a hero IL he had not turned criminal
This may have its moral lesson, but 1t
is hardly substantiated by the facts
Tracy has had a unique career. and
1t is plain that it has been heightened
by luck in exceptional degree. But the
eminent quality which he has displayed
is solely the readiness to murder any
one who might hamper his escape. That
was illustrated at the start by his muir
der of his fellow convict who escaped
from the prison with him, and since then
by his threats to kill men, women or
children If his orders were not obeyed.
His reputation has clearly terrorized the
people who come within his range.
Finally, his luck has appeared In the
fact that he does not yet appear to have
met, among the many whom he has
encountered one man with the courage,
address and nerve to conquer him.
In short. IL is an extreme case of the
typical bad man against pacific people.
The case is a singular one, but so far
as the character of Tracy is concerned
that which gives him his advantage is
his desperate righteousness.

Railroad Drayaae War.

The drayage war that is spreading
from one Southern city to another
from one railroad to another-is simp-
~ reduction in rates of SIS or Sc a
car. It is a determined battle in which
the Louisville and Nashville the Illi-
nois Central and the Southern are act
i've antagonists. Other railroads have
been or will be drawn into this scuffie
for trade. /,
The free drayage system is not a
new thing. It has long been in use
in England and on the continent, and
no one would object to it's Introduction
here IL all towns were served alike.
But when it is granted to some towns
and denied to others, then it has a diff
ferent aspect. 1t becomes then dis
elimination that is very injurious, and
that will not be long patiently en-
dured. Says the Nashville Banner:
1n6 DtSlS u IISlBHl adjustment AAoAh
the various markets, including Nashville
which has been in vogue for twenty-five
years, contemplates that a change of
rates to or from one point should be fol-
lowed by like change from all other
competing points. This drayage war is
nothing mere nor less than a change
Of rates, a reduction of from two to
three cents per one hundred pounds. So
that the railroads centering in Nashville
should either reduce the Nashville rates
to that extent or give the merchants OF
this city the benefits of free drayage and
thus place them on an equality with the
merchants of Memphis. Louisville and
New Orleans.
This is the position all towns should
take AS matters stand three South
ern cities are placed in position to
gather in the trade of all other South
ern towns, thus aggrandizing the three
at the expense of equally deserving
towns on the same lines of railroad
Such a condition cannot long be en-
dured.

Efficient stenoeraphers.

II see the difficulty of securing efficient
and well qualified stenographers is
puzzling many heads of large concerns
now" said a prominent manufacturer
last night.
ut was predicted several years ago
that this field of work would soon be
overcrowded on account of the large
number of graduates the numerous bus
mess colleges in the country were turning
out, but the supply seems to be rather
on the decrease than otherwise. l sup
pose the principal reason is that most
concerns now require a stenographer to
be proficient in all lines of office work
as we'll as attending to the correspond
ence.
ut is a fact however that there are
really very few stenographers who can
fill the requirements of an office doing an
extensive and diversified business. Such
stenographers command good salaries. In
deed one who can come UP to the standard
of intelligence, education and ability in
general work should have as good re-
Enumeration as other clerical workers re-
ceive and they usually get it."
