Fort de France, Martinique, June ..
The National Geographical society
has scored Il great triumph through its
representative here, Professor Angelo
HeiIprin, who on Saturday morning,
with three guides, ascended to the top
of the crater on the summit of Mont
Pelee. Professor Heilprin is also
president of the Philadelphia Geo
graphical society. Professor Heilprin
had gone to the plantation Nive,
which Is near the crater, in company
with Fernand Clerc and Mr.. Ried,
landed prOprietorS of Martinique. This
expedition had been especially organ
lied by United States Consul Ayme
and Professor Heilprin, and was led
by the latter.
Charged Into the Mouth of He'll.
The expedition left Fort de France
May 20 at noon. Friday was spent in
studying the newly formed craters on
the north flank of the mountain. Sat
urday morning Professor HeilpTin de-
termined to attempt the ascent to the
top of the crater. and with this pur-
pose In view he set out ut , o'clock.
The volcano was very active but amid
Il thousand dangers Professor Heilprin
reached the summit and looked down
INTO the nuge crater. Here ne spent
some time in taking careful obServa-
tiOnS. He saw huge cindPr cone in
the center of the crater. The opening
of the crater itself is Il vast creivce
800 feet long and 100 feet wide.
Covered All Over with Mud.
While Professor Heilprin was on the
summit of the volcano several violent
explosions of steam and cinder-laden
NapOr took place. and IL gain and again
his life was in danger. Ashes fell
about him In such quantities at times
as to completely obscure his vision.
One particular violent explosion of
mud covered the professor from head
TO foot with the hideouS vlscid and
semi-solid matter. lie still persisted
in his study and observations, however,
and twice more was Showered with
mud. He learned, aS had
been suspected. that there We're three
separate vents through which steam
issued. Full details of the professors
observations cannot he had until he re-
turns TO Fort de France.

injury to the corn and rice crops,
the corn crop is said to be greatly
reduced for want of rain at the
time that it was most need for the
formation of the ears; and the rice
crop is being irrigated with the
greatest difficulty, as the ground
being SO dry absords great deal
|of water and the evaporation is so
great that the pumps can only
make some Roadway during the
night. Many hundred of acres Of
rice are dry and suffering, and
this crop will also be considerably
reduced on that account. Since

| THE INDIAN AND HIS HAIR CUT. I Indian Commissioner Jones does not | propose that Secretary of the Interior | Hitchcock shall reap the glory of solv- | ing the Indian problem by the tonsorial ! method. The idea was his own, he an- nounces in an interview. He thought | it all out himself, having seen the need. l MT. Hitchcock didn't do it at all. The interior department is not like the navy 1 department, in which the boss gets all the glory for everything done by those | under him, and MT. Jones can claim the honor of his discovery without danger of being court martialed-
 1 MT Jones has discovered, however, that his now famous order went a little farther than he intended. As originally worded it would apply to all Indians, | and those who refused to have their
 hair cut and wash the paint from their
 faces were to have visited upon them
 the wrath of the department in the cut
 ting off of rations and short conflne-
 ments at hard labor" The hair cut
 ting must be done cautiously, he says
 and not all at once. Agents must cut
 tenderly and with care. Tact in large
 quantities will be needed. It is not in
 tended, he says, that the agents shall
 be so preclpitate as to give the Indians
 any just cause for revolt. He doesn't
 want a. score or so of Indian wars to
 break out all at one time. That would
 be embarrassing, in view of the situa- tion in the Philippines Soldiers cannot be well spared from the islands to shoot Indians who might prefer the warpath of savagery to the haircut of civiliza- ton. MT. Jones makes one big conces- sion. The old Indians are to be let alone Welded to their idols of long hair, paint, blankets and the like, they may go their evil way without let or hindrance We will let the old fellows wear their hair long and daub their as saying. But it is to the rising gene ration that he pins his hopes-the young fellows who have been to school and should know better. No more for them the blanket, the paint and the un- cut hair of their ancestors, They must forswear all these vanities and be good. They must submit to Commissioner Jones' edict and be beneyolently assin- Hated.
 Then after they have learned to wear store clothes and have concealed as many as possible of the characteristics of their race the tribes may be broken up, the members distributed all over the country and their lands thrown open to settlers, who are sc crowded now, or given to porations.-Baltimore Sun.

A RATTLEOF TRUSTS.

The contest over the question of reef
 procity with Cuba seems to have set
 tied down to a naked battle between
 the Sugar Trust on one side and the
 beet sugar manufacturers on the other
 These are pursuing committees furious
 ly with one kind of argument, and are doubtless pursuing members as earnest
 ly with another kind The trust wants
 free raw material and the beet sugar
 interest wants continued protection for a profitable industry. It is not so clear as we could wish where the pub lie interest comes in. With all duty taken off sugar-eXceptFSth European bounty-fed product-the price to the consumer might come down. But with Cuban sugar alone relieved, we fear the trust would get the whole advantage, On the other side, the beet sugar refin- CTS appear to get the whole advantage of the duty. The publitdisn't in the game anywhere.
 At the outset we heard a deal from the free sugar side about the duty of the United States to save the sugar planting industry in Cuba from ruin But later it Is coming out that a large part of the sugar plantations of the is- land are passing into the hands of the American sngar ref1ners Sd that these would reap all the benefit of reduction of duty. This would repeat the experi- ence with Hawaii Thirty years ago the reciprocity treaty made sugar free. The San Francisco refiners bought su- gar lands in the islands to supply their factories, kept up the price, put the whole duty in their pockets and grew rich beyond the dreams of avarice. No body wants to see this repeated for the whole country.
 On the other side we heard a great deal at the outset about the interest of the American farmer in maintenance of the duty for protection of the beet su- gar manufacture. But it soon came out that the farmer wasn't getting much good out of the duty. This is one req son why the industry has not developed. There Is so little profit in beet raising that farmers will not produce enough to supply the factories, It appears that the average price to the American far mer is not much more than that re- ceived by the German peasant. The re- liners take all the profit of the duty. This has been made so clear in the dis cussion that the farmers are taking part in 1t. Nebraska is one of the greatest beet sugar states. The farmers there are so dissatisfied with the price they get for beets that they are sending a delegation to Washington to work for free sugar. The more the public finds out about this matter, the more it dis covers that it's own interest in it is very small. Minneapolis Tribune.
