The New York Evening Post said the

CAPTAIN Talbat, OF the British steamer

buildings were seen 10 topple and fall

This description OF Manila. where the
United States government is employing
millions OF dollars at this time struck my
mind as an Ominous recital.
We may. be reasonably sure that having
had two violent destructive earthquakes
within twenty years time namely in 1853
and 1850. the opportunity Is ripe for an
other earthquake and another volcanic

1t is remarkable that the coal barons

And our statesmen or the men who

COUNTRY WOMAN WON
BY Bringing an Invention to the Metro
polls.
Brooklyn Eagle

Brooklyn Eagle.
While a good many women are branch
ing out into new fields these days, and
some are gaining no inconsiderable
amount of fame and money as the result.
there are few clever members of the sex
who are content to WOO fortune IN old
fashioned ways. One of these quiet little
women has within the past SIX years made
fortune from selling cake. OF course, it
Is homemade cake, and furthermore, the
baker clings to certain varieties in the
preparation of which she is particularly
skilled. She is a country bred woman,
and lived in a little village in this state
until seven or eight years ago. She was
known as a good cook in a district where
it is considered almost a disgrace for
housewife not TO be good cook. Her spe-
cialty was cake, and as she is endowed
with a more than average allotment of in
telligence and not little talent for in
vention, she devised a cake tin that was
an Improvement over anything that had
been produced before in the vicinity. She
was shrewd enough to patent her inven-
ton, then she set about getting her patent
before the public. Her husband came to
her assistance here and trial was made
with the village folk. The new cake tin
took. Then the large towns In the vicinity
were tried with an encouraging degree OF
success, and the country fairs gave an
other opening. After a year or so the wo-
man Was duNlSeu 70 come 10 New 1Ofks
and luckily secured a good opening. She 4
has been here ever since. just making and
selling cakes and exploiting that patented
tin. She employs several assistants. Her
husband finds 1t profitable to give all his
time to managing the details of the busi-
ness and trade is constantly increasing. II
any one doubts that there is demand for
homemade cake in this city visit to
the little shop of this cakemaker will con-
vince him or her to the contrary. Half
dozen varieties comprise the output. and
the cakes are not cheap by any means.
They are good. and they are in demand
and it is not unusual during the middle of
the day to find double row Of women
around the counter In the little shop wait
ing to give orders. It is wise woman
who knows wherein her talents lie these
days. and in most cases she reaps profit
from the understanding Of her talents and
her limitations.
