Won Nordegg, an eminent authority
on German aristoeracy, in the annual
edition of the Almanac of Nobility,
statesthat practically every blue-blood-
ed family in the German empire is
now represented in the United States
by descendants, who are engaged, for
the most part, in humble employments,
mostly as walters, coachmen, bar
tenders or as miners or other common
laborers. lie urges the German noble
families to provide such training for
their Sons as will fit them for CONNER
cial and professional lives before the
family fortunes are exhausted. Only
in this way, he says, can they prevent
young men from emigrating and be-
smirching their family escutcheons.
Mr.. Nordegg is wrong. Honest en-
ployment and labor is more like wash
ing their noble families dirty linen.

doubt your great ability, John, because
you state the ways and means by
which men get millions in a very terse
way, but there is an unbalanced wheel
in your head if you think it is wrong
to accept their gifts. The great insti-
buttons of learning established by these
moral pirates turn out very bright and
able young men, who there learn to
despise the crimes of their benefactors
and who are there taught to distinguish
the difference between the builded in
stitution proceeds of crime-and the
crime itself-the act of the criminal.
The student is thus taught to rever his
alma mater and despise the man who
gathered the means by which it was
built. This may seem paradoxical at
first blush, but a closer examination of
the subject, unbiased by exploded an
cient philosophy or superstition, will
show that there is nothing wrong in
enjoying the hospitality ola thief when
he furnishes the knowledge that makes
him despicable.

s LYNCHING CONFERENCE.
Firm stand of Chisf Justice Lore Of
 Delaware Agafnst Mob Law.

Chautauqua, N. Y, Aug. 14-Charles B. Lore.s chief justice of the supreme court of Delaware, spoke here to-day upon Manifestations of Mob Spirit 7 Because of recent events in his own and other states, he dwelt especially upon lynchings and race troubles. The tone of his address was judicial and mild, in sharp contrast to some of the recent ut- terances upon the same subject on the Chautauqua platform. His sentiments, however. were plainly and vigorously stated.
 The speaker took firm stand on the side of law and order, and aroused his audience to repeated applause. He made a very favorable impression and it was evident that the current of feeling in Iclined to extenuate lynching and mob law in certain cases, which was mani fest earlier in the week, has given way to more calm and thoughtful consider ation of the seriousness of such social phenomena. To this result the words of Justice Lore has contributed not a. little

MOUNT VEsUvIUs, ACTIVITY
People as Naples in Almost Continual
 State of Panic,

Naples, Aug. 1.-The people here are in an almost continual state of panic over the activity of Mount Vesuvius, although the flow of lava is less to-day than yesterday. The parish priest and the guardians of the law are having great difficulty in quieting the people, who are convinced that they are about to be overwhelmed by lava from the crater. They gather in churches, where they cast themselves before the altar, imploring the intercessioil of the ,Vir- gin. The earthquake shocks have serv- ed to increase their alarm. The people rushed into the open spaces to escape from the debris of the houses, which they were certain would fall. Parents as well as children are infected with the fright. The favorite exclamation in the crowd is Madonna mia Sev-. eral determined efforts have been made by venturesome persons to get nearer the crater than the prescribed limits allow One man actually succeeded, when his presence was revealed by a burst of fire. He was brought back none too gently by the guardian. Sev-' era1 of the guardians have had narrow escapes from falling stones. The spec tacle presented by Vesuvius is magnifi- cent and overpoWering.

CONDITION OF MASSACHUSETTS,.
Fifteen Holes in Battieship's Botion
 and Part Of Rudder Conc.

Bar Harbor, Me, Aug. 14--It is ir1- possible to obtain definite official infor- nation as to the condition, so far as known of the battleship Massachusetts, which sustained serious damage by contact with the pinnacle of Egg Rock in the harbor Wednesday. It was learned to-day, however. and from a reliable source. that the vessel has if teen koles in her bottom. and that a part of her rudder is gone. It is also said that the water in the center of the ship has rendered her machinery useless, and that in all probability she will have to be lowed to dry dock Wreeking tugs which are expected to pump her out had not arrived tonight. If they are successful in freeing the compartments of water, it is barely pos- sible that such temporary repairs can be made as will enable the ship to pro- ceed under her own steam.
 A naval constructor arrived to-day and went on board. It may be said with assurance that the Massachusetts will not attenlot to go to sea until temporary repairs are made, in spite of the fact that Captain Easton said to-day that sailing orders were mos mentarily expected with the probable destination, the Brooklyn navy yard. The battleship is not sinking, however, as has been reported. In fact she showed more sree board to-day than copper paint could be plainly seen from was the case yesterday. and her red shore. This is due to the removal of immense quantities of ammunition, coal and other stores to her collier, the Leb- anon, and tug.

Limited New York Express Runs Into Open syltch-One ISliled

Van Vert. O., Aug. 14Fifteen min utes late and running at the rate of forty-ave miles an hour the limited New York express on the Pennsylvania railroad ran into an open switch at the Burt station crossing late this after- noon. One man was instantly killed. another fatally injured, while fourteen others were more or less seriously in- jured.

 When the engine entered the switch it first struck fiat car, going clean over 1t. The first mail car in turn climbed over .lle engine, and was fol- lowed by the other three cars, all of which were reduced to kildling wood. The rear cars remained upon the track.
 It is presumed that Engineer Eaton saw the open switch, as the steam was afterwards found shut off in his engine, and the sand had been applied. How the switch came to be open is not known.

F0RAKER ACT UPHELD.
New Revenue on Merchandiss from
 Porto Rico Lcgat

| E
 New York, Aug. 14--Judge Ray in the United States circuit court to-day handed down an opinion sustaining the constitutionality of the Foraker act, which provided a new revenue on nler- chandise brought into the United States from Porto Rico, after the island ceased to be a foreign country. To-day's de- cision sustained a demurrer in a case against the government by the sugar importing firm of Lascelles & Co of New York. The firm imported a cargo of sugar from Porto Rico on June 12. 1899. which was placed on its errival in a bonded warehouse. The entry was |liquidated November 14, 1899, under the existing Dingley tariff act On June 6 the entry was relinquished and du- ties re-assessed under the Foraker act.
 The firm protested against the ifnposi- tion or any and all duties. Finally, zurl- der protest, $2,500 duty was paid and suit for it's recovery instituted. The government demurred, claiming that the goods were dutiabie under the so-called Foraker act and Judge Ray sustained the demurrer, finding that the assess ment under the Foraker act was legal and constitutional. The real question at issue and one ont previously raised was that portion of the Foraker act which provided for the assessing of merchandise at bonded warehouses at the time the new law went into effect.

POPE HOLDS AUDIENCE.
Receives Several Card inats, Arch Dish ops
 and Bishops.

Rome, Aug. t-The pope to-day re- lceived in private audience several car-
 dinals, archbishops and bishops. He also received Sir Thomas Esmonde, the representative of the Irish parliamen- tary party. Sir Thomas was left alone with the pontiff, and when he wished to kneel the pope most amiably stretch- seated at his side Sir Thomas pre- sented the congratulations of the Irish
 party on the pope's accession, and the pontiff was much gratified, saying that the Irish were very dear, loyal people and that he wished them all prosperity and happiness. Y }
 Speculation concerning the appoint ment of secretary of state continues Ito be the expressing topic at the vati- ljcan. There has been a suggestion that Cardinal Gotti should be appointed to this post on the ground that such an appoint ment would please Germany and Austria, and that Cardinal Ram polla should replace Gotti as prefect of
 the propaganda, thus insuring the, pro- tection of Frances interests in the far east. It is not believed, however, that the suggestion will prove acceptable to
 the pope. Others believe that the pope is trying to overcome the excessive
 modesty of Cardinal Satolli in order to
 induce him to accept the position, which others still believe that Plus x. will end
 by conferring the red hat upon his iriti-
 mate friend, Monsignor Callegari, bish-
 op of Padua, and subsequently nonni-
 hating him as secretary of state. i
 Plus K has signified his intention of
 occupying the apartment in which the late pope lived, and the furniture is now being removed for that purpose.

Jeffries put light left to Jim's ribs and they refused to break. Jim put right over the heart and clinched. Cor bett stayed close in and put hard short arm right on the body. They were ex- sceedingly careful in the break. Jeffries forced his man across the ring and put left light on the body. It was noticed that Corbett did very little foot work but stayed close and put two right solidly over the heart. Jeffries missed right for the body but put in one in on chest light. As they broke Corbett quickly stepped up and put right to the heart. Jeff laughingly remarked 'sAh," The first round indicated that Jeffries is very fast and that Corbett did not do any fancy work

JAMAIc4,S PLIGHT.
Heart Rending Scenes in storm Stricken
 Island

Kingston, Jamaisa. Aug. If. - There are heart rending scenes all over the eastern and northern portions of the island os Jamaica. At Port Antonio thousands of homeless and starving people have sought shelter in the old prison and a few other buildings which survived the hurricane. Those who could not be thus accommodated are covering in the lee of ruined walls and dismantled piazzas. The railroad sheds and waiting rooms are filled with wo- men and children. The merchants of the place are feeding the hungry to the best of their ability but the majority are depending upon green, unripe bana- mas knocked down by the storm. The bananas are boiled in kerosene tins over open fires made from the debris of the destroyed buildings. This is their sole food supply and it will be ex- hausted in nine or ten days. Similar conditions prevail at Annota bay, Buff bay. Orange bay, Port Maria. Man chioneal. Morant bay, Bowden and other smaller seaports. In the interior the distress is equally acute. Scarcely a peasants home is standing. Even the dwellings of the planters which are built of substantial stone have been un- tropfed with few exceptions.
 The misery of the peasant families is indescrfbable. Their homes and be- longings have been blown away and they are contriving rude shelters from fallen trees. palm boughs and banana leaves. Owing to the continued unset tied weather With occasional torrential rains, these shelters afford practically no protection. Efforts are being made at Kingston to relieve the imme diate wants Of some localities by subscrip- tions of food and clothing, but the lo- cal efforts at best are totally made quate Unless immediate shipments of foodstuffs come from America deaths by starvation are inevitable. The local
 The bulk of the Blue mouffss.n coffee has been ruined and the Pimento groves, which stood for centuries, have been obliterated. It is now estimated that the loss on the island will reach $15. 900. .000.
