CnuscyHny of Bending Pillars.

Nature has hewn many upright pill
lars from the rock at various prehis-
toric periods, but SO far us is known
she has completed but one group of
bending pillars. The causeWay at Stat
ia, in Scotland is after this original
design. The stone shafts rise pcrpen-
dicularly to ii height of fifty OF sixty
feet, when they curve inward in Il
long, sweeping line at once graceful
and massive. In some places perfect
Roman arch has been formed in this
way. The formations are 50 symmet-

Antiquity of Pins.

Pins of various sorts have been in ex-
istence ever since our first parents
clothed themselves in palm leaves
which grew wild in the garden of
Eden. AS matter Of fact, pins claim
very high antiquity, the earliest form
being a natural thorn. which is still
used to some extent for fastening the
dress by the peasant women of upper
Egypt. In prehistoric times pins were
also made Of the small bones Of fish
and animals

ERUPTION OF VESUVIUS.
Present Agitation of Volcano the Most
Violent in Thirtv-Two
Years.

Naples, Sept 26.-The eruption of
Mount Vesuvius continues to increase
in force, and is now more violent than
at any time since 1872. Red-hot stones
are hurled to height of 1,600 feet,
falling down the TANKS of the mountain
with a deafening sound. The director
of the observatory says that between
five o'clock Sunday morning and six
o'clock in the afternoon hisinstruments
registered 1874 violent explosions, and
that one stone thrown out weighed
about two tons. Lava flowing from the
crater has melted the metal of the
Funicular railway, destroyed the up
per station and burned the wooden huts
in which guides live. All vegetation
within q radius of one mile of the
crater has disappeared. Severl earth
quake shocks were felt Sunday Some
of the people in the surrounding viii
lagos have left their homes and are
camped in the open air.

1t is certain that the schools are pc
culiarly the victims of the faddists. A
few years ago all our educational au-
thorities went daft on the subject of
vertical handwriting. It never oc-
CURED to them to find out whether the
merchants who hire bookkeepers APP
proved of this style of writing. There
was no thought of the individuality of
the child of which ordinarily the hand
writing is supposed to be the express
sion. So the vertical style was adopt
ed. Now we are informed that It Is
being abandoned because the men with
jobs to give will not tolerate it.

talk of foreign Intervention by the an
nouncement that Russia means to
| fight out the issue with Japan on the
field of battle. Probably 800, 900 addi-
tional men will be placed in the field.
Five corps, the Third, Fourth, Fifth,
Eighth and Sixteenth are already des-
tined for the front, and the talk is that
five more corps will be sent forward.
Eventually the creation of this second
army involves the selection of a COM
mander-in-chief. Not only is there no
intimation in the rescript that Gen.
Kuropatllin will have command of
both armies, but he is distinctly placed

penberg In the best informed circles
there is little idea that Viceroy Alex
Jeff, the present nominal commander
in-chief, will exercise the actual func-
tons of commander of the 600.-
000 or 100000 men that Russia has
resolved to put in the field 1t is the
best opinion that Grand Duke Nicholas
Michaelovitch, inspector general OF
cavalry. will attain the high command.
Ia Pass Captured.
London. Sept. 26.-Ta Pass, the gate
way in the hills south of Mukden,

the far east, telegraphs the Berlin
Tageblatt that the pass was taken on
September % after a light engagement.
Reports that the evacuation of Muk-
den is in progress have reached Gen.
Okus headquarters. A correspondent
at Hardin telegraphs that the Japan
csc are advancing along the Lao river.
These statements indicate that Kuro-
patkin has found himself seriously en-
dangered by fianking movements and
has begun his retirement without Civ
ing battle.
The slowness of Oyama's advance on
Mukden is explained by correspond
ent with Oku's division, who states
that all operations in the north are
waiting on the result of the latest at
tack on Port Arthur The capture Of
the fortress would release a large num-
Der of troops, which could be rushed
north on the railroad, now believed to
be in good working order, to aid in
the last battles of the year in Man
churia.
Japs Turn Russian Flanks.

It has long been a debatable question
whether heredity or environment is re-
sponsible for the depravity and degen-
eracy of children. In either case it is
the parent and not the child upon whom
the responsibility must rest. If the
Juvenile court law will compel parents
to loob after their children better. in
stead of haling them into court on the
least provocation and asking that thev
be sent to Jail or the reform school, it
will have done such great and good
work that all the omissions of the legis-
Iators in the framing of the law will be
forgiven and forgotten.

Nothing develops a more pro-
nOunced type of "crank" than a diet
airy fad. In itself harmless and wholly
inoffensive when practiced in the Sc

will be careful to avoid, it attains the
proportions of a public nuisance the
moment the faddist discovers that his
mission in life is to convert others to
his way.
