FORT De FRNNCE ALAHWED.
Mont Pelee in Eruption Again Tues
day Morning.

Fort de France, May 21.-Tuesday
morning at half-past a thick, heavy
cloud, lit up by flashes of lightning and
the rising sun, rose from Mont Pelee.
The people of Fort de France at once
became panic-stricken and in scant at
tire rushed excitedly through the
streets of the town. Stones from the
volcano as big as hazel nuts fell in
the streets. Many Of the inhabitants
hurridedly embarked on the vessels in
the harbor, and it was with difficulty
that they were eventually treasured
At o'clock, however, the excitement
was over and the people became calm.
The phenomenon was similar to the
eruption Of Thursday, May 8, but not
so severe.
Gov. Lhuerre will leave here in the
French cruiser Suchet to inSrm him
self of the situation at St. Pierre.
The cloud which issued from Mont
Pelee was composed of cinders. 1t is
estimated that 10000 people rushed
out into the streets OF the town, shrek
ing and praying.
A tidal wave has destroyed a por-
ton of the village of La Carbet.
Senator Knight will accompany Gov.
Lhuerre on the Suchet to st. Pierre.
A number of inhabitants of Fort de
France have embarked on the avail
able vessels of the harbor and intend
to seek refuge on the island OF Guada-
loupe or to the southwark.

WHY NOSES POINT EAST.
4 Theory which Is Plausible. but
Rather Ridiculous.

Very few peoples noses are set prop
perry upon their faces. Any observant
person who will go along the street and
take notice of the nasal organs of the
passerby may easily convince himself
on the subject. Not one individual il
a hundred, whether man or woman, Is
above criticism as to the arrangement
of his or her nose.
One might think that nature is lit
tie careless about this matter. When
the nose turns off at an angle instead
of assuming its just and proper atti'
tude, it tends, at all events in extreme
cases, to give disordered effect to the
features as whole, but if nature real.
ly does not care which way q nose
points there ought to be as many noses
turned one way as are turned the 9th
'er.
But is this the case? Not q bit OF It
AS you walk down the street look at
the people as they go by, and you will
discover that the noses Of ninety-nine
out of every hundred turn to the right
When once you have begun to notice
this fact, it will constantly attract
your attention. In truth, the objec
ton to starting in upon study Of this
kind is that you cannot get away from
1t afterward. 1t haunts you steadily
and persistently. Whenever you meet
friend you look at his nose to make
sure whether 1t turns to the right or
not.
Now, the phenomenon being as de.
scribed. what Is the reason behind It'll
Why should nearly everybody's nose
turn to the right rather than to the
left? There seems to be only one way
to account for 1t, and that is that al.
most everybody is right handed and
uses his handkerchief correspondingly;
so from infancy to old age the nose In
the process Of being blown and wiped
Is persistently tweaked to the right;
hence as the infant passes through
childhood and later youth-when the
nasal organ Is flexible and In process
of formation, so to speak-it is obliged
gradually but surely to assume an in.
elination eastward.
IL this theory be correct. the noses OF
left handed persons ought to turn Gus
tomarily to tho left. Such. in fact, ap
pears to be the case. hut data OF THE
interesting branch OF the question are
not sufficiently complete to afford q
flnal conclusion. - Saturday Evening

TEMPORARY INJUNCTION
Granted by u. 0. Court Against Al.
legged Packers Combine.

Chicago, May 21-The temporary
injunction asked for by the govern
ment against the members of the So
called packers combine Is now in
force. 1t was issued last evening by
Judge Peter S. Grosscup after the
close Of arguments in the United
States circuit court room. The order
gives the relief prayed for in the bill
filed by District Attorney Bethea on
May 10. 1t is so wide in its scope that
If the packers or their agents continue
with their present alleged uniform ar
rangements, they will be taken into
court on contempt proceedings, and
the burden Of proof will be on them TO
show that they have not violated the
order in any particular.
Little opposition was raised against
the governments petition. Judge
Grosscup thought some minor clauses
had been made too prominent, and he
himself drew a form Of order that
pleased both sides.
General Counsel Miller sat alone to
represent the defendants, though there
were many office employees OF the pack
ers among the spectators. For the
government, District Attorney Bethea
was the leader, and was aided by Solic-
itor General Richards and Special
Counsel Day, of Washington, and AS
sistant District Attorneys Morrison,
Pagin and Davis.
Unless the defendants decide to
make a fight at an early date in an eff
fort to have the order set aside, they
will have until Aug. to make reply
to the complaint. Attorney Miller said
that he cannot tell whether demur-
rer, a plea or an answer will be filed,
though the first named is the most
likely to be the form of the packers
defense. The subpoenas served re-

the slow shutting tread Of age, and sub
ordinate duties and pleasures to the
capricious whims of second childhood.
The difference in these two old men is
simply difference of health. The one
old man is hale and hearty, enjoys his
food, sleeps soundly, and keeps his grip
on public affairs. The other old man is
weak and feeble, his appetite and diges-
ton are poor, his sleep is unsound, he
has no interest in life or affairs save as
his personal comfort may be affected.
Healthy old age, whether in man or
woman, is largely question OF sound
stomach and pure, rich blood. To pre-
serve this condition nature generally
needs some assistance, in order to get
rid of the accumulations of waste, effete
and poisonous substances which tend
to clog the body and impede the circu-
lation. It is also needful to keep the
stomach and digestive and nutritive
tracts in healthy condition, In order to
properly nourish the body.
HEALTH IN OLD AGE
can, therefore, best be enjoyed by the
use of DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. This medicine cures diseases OF
the stomach and other organs of diges-
ton and nutrition. It enables the per-
feet digestion and assimilation of the
food upon which physical strength de-
ponds. 1t cleanses the blood Of clog
ging and poisonous matter, and by in
creasing the activity Of the blood-making
glands, increases the supply of pure,
rich blood, which is the final form OF
nutrition and the life of the whole phys
ical man.
