some Facts About These Vents to the
Earth's Interior Fire,
Cons ago the earth on which we
live was a huge mass of fire mist !"
Astronomers tell us that today In the
costing what the earth was once.
Gradually the surface OF the fire
mist cooled and hardened, but the in
terror is still intensely hot Whether
it is solid, liquid or viscous we do not
know. This heat, raging miles below
the surface, at times escapes through
the hard crust by vents or volcanoes.
There are from 300 to $50 volcanoes
on the globe. This estimate includes
merely live volcanoes which within re-
cent times have been in action. If we
should count the many mountains scat
tered over the earth which show today
signs of volcanic action in more re-
mote past, the estimate would have to
be increased by many hundreds.
Volcanoes would seem to be arranged
with more or less symmetry in belts
circling the great oceans. A ring of
fire surrounds the Pacific. Starting at
the South Shetland islands, several
hundred miles south of Cape Horn, a
belt of volcanoes extends up the west
coast of South America, Central Amer
lea and North America; from Alaska it
crosses the Pacific along the Aleutian
islands to Kamehatka; thence 1t fol
lows the east edge of the Pacific
through the Kurile islands, Japan, For
mosa, the Philippines, the Moluccas,
the Solomon islands, the North Heb
rides, New Zealand and finally ends

L young man living on Walnut Hills
is a close worker in money matters
that is, he stays close to the shore with
his expenditures. He had the good
luck to marry girl whose parents are
quite wealthy and is at present living
with his wife in one of his father-in-
laws houses.
One day not long since while dis
GUESSING affairs with a friend the latter
asked:
Did the old gentleman give you that
house"
"Well-er-no, not exactly" was the
answer. "He offered it TO me, but
wouldn't accept it."
"How's that?" asked the friend.
"Well," answered the man who had
made the lucky matrimonial venture,
you see, the house really belongs to
me. I'm living in it, rent free, and I'll
get it when the old man dies. If l ac-
cepted it now, I'd have to pay the
aXes."-Cincinnati Enquirer.

ed plot, but is OF intense interest
throughout. There are great many
powerful situations in the piece In
act first, where a husband and wife
separate, the scene becomes one of
heartfelt interest and brings copious
tears to the auditors. The situation
IN act two is another strong scene In
which little Myrtle, the blind child,
does some very clever and earnest
work, and holds the audience with
closest attention. The play presents
a number OF excellent climaxes which
enthrall all present. "The Village
Parson" will be given with complete
stage settings, the scenery being
brought here by the management.

served OF the bombardment The re-
quirement az to notice applies to
towns where the FIRE must be directed
upon the Inhabitants. and this was not
the case at Puerto cabello. SO that
while the officials here regret that the
firing took place. they have as yet no
cause to protest.
But 1t is now probable that the
United States will break its attitude of
inactivity IN the event that an attempt
is made TO enforce the peaceful
blockade" toward an American ship.
When the allies were considering the
ways and means of bringing vene-
zuela to terms and a blockade of this
character had been decided upon the
German government informed the
United States that when the block
ade was established It would turn
back all shipping. though no effort
would be made to seize the ships.
Following Precedent.
The United States government made
no response to this statement at the
time Qast year,. not feeling called
upon to do SO before presentation of
an actual case. But now thar the
blockade is sought to be established,
Secretary Hay has informed the Ger
man government that American ships
should not be interfered with In their
trading. unless the inhibition applies
to all shipping, and further, the note
intimates disapproval of stoppage
at all. In SO doing the state depart
ment Is following precedent. During
the effort OF the powers to establish
peaceful blockade" of Crete m
1898 Secretary Sherman formally re-
corded a refusal to be bound by 1.
1t happened that no American shin
had occasion to enter a Cretan mort
during the brief period of time the
blockade was in force. SO the issue
was not made then, but in the pres.
emit case. with regular lines of Ameri-
can steamers entering Venezuelan
ports at short intervals, a test case
may soon follow. It is within the
legal rights of the allies to close these
ports. but probably this can be &C.
complished without protest on our
part only after a formal declaration
of war.
