THROWS RED HOT STONES.
Eruption of Mount vesuvius Extremely
Violent.

Naples.-The eruption of Vesuvius
continues to increase in force, and is
now more violent than any time since
1872. Redhot stones are hurled to a
height of 1900 feet, falling down the
tanks of the mountain with a deafen-
ing sound. The director of the observa-
tory says that between o'clock this
morning and o'clock this afternoon
his instruments registered 1874 violent
explosions, and that one stone thrown
out weighed about two tons. The red
hot stones thrown out have melted the
rails of the Fenicu,ar railway, destroy
ed the wooden huts in which guides

Southern Carnival
Show at Spokane

Few people realize the extent of the
amusement features which are being
prepared this for the entertainment of
the visitors to the Spokane Interstate
fair which holds October 3 to 8.
Never before did Spokane gather to-
gether such an array of fun and enter
tainment for the single week. There
will be something doing all the week.
OF coures the big thing is the Southern
Carnival company which will put on
the a better show in the evening than
anything which has been seen in Spo-
Kane in all tbs history. Nat Reiss, the
veteran Snowman. is at the head of
this carnival. He was in Spokane last
year and gave a carnival for the labor
organizations. His show was fine then
and but Seattle and other towns which
have seen it this year say it is twice as
large and far better than it was last
year.

JAPAN IN THE WAR TO WIN,
Count Okuma Says Russia Can Not
Wear Out His People.

Tokio.-Count Okuma, formerly the
prime minister of Japan, one of the
ablest finance ministers of the country,
now a prominent leader of the opposi.
ton, says he can see no reason to
alter his opinion expressed in previous
interviews. Russia" he said, twill
not be able to wear out Japan. Japan
is less manufacturing than an agri.
cultural country, and defeat would
do little more than check its few in
dustries. Even then there are many
new fields of activity, especially
abroad.
Exports have not been diminished,
and on account of unusually abundant
crops the importation of food has de-
creased. Hence the balance of trade
is favorable. The annual saving ca
pacity Of the Japanese is about S0O,-
100000 yen ($150,00OOOO). This is
almost equal to the extraordinary war
expenses. 1t will not be difficult to
raise domestic loans, as the people are
deeply patriotic.
Japan is determined to win at what
ever cost. 1t would undoubtedly be a
good thing if the war could be stopped
as soon as possible, but Japan will
never discontinue it until it has real
lied its ideals of permanent peace and
an open door in the far east.

st. PetersDurg.-T division and
reorganization of the Mancnurian
army, regarding which there have been
rumors ever since the battle of Liaoy-

an imperial rescript appointing Cen

leaving General kuropatkin in com

The emperor is personally convinced
that the political as well as the mill
tary prestige Of the empire is at stake,
and that every other consideration
must give way before the exigencies of
war. The resources OF the empire in
men and money must be drained if
necessary in order to turn the scale
and vindicate the power of Russia. The
reorganization amounts to formal no.

of troops at the theater of war in or

Ihls appalling loss OF life and MAIN

from the dlsregardlng OF orders given
TO the two trains to meet at a station
whlch mas for long time been their

the part or the engineer OF the west

by the fact that the accident happened
in broad daylight and, according to the
best information obtainable, he had
the order in little frame in front of
him as his engine rushed by the sta

Send 100000 More Men.

1t is intended to silence definitely all
talk of foreign Intervention by the an
out the issue with Japan on the field
Of battle. Probably 100000 additional
men will be placed in the field. Even
tually the creation Of this second army
involves the selection of commander
in chief. Not only is there no intima-
patkin will have command of both
armies, but he is distinctly placed upon
the same footing as General Grippen-
berg. In the best informed circles there
is little idea that Viceroy Alexieff, the
present nominal commander in chief,
will exercise the actual functions Of
commander of the 100000 or 100000
men that Russia has resolved to put in
the field.
It Is the best opinion that Grand
Duke Nicholas Michaelovitch, inspec-
tor general Of cavalry. will attain the
high command, occupying in the war
with Japan the position held by his
father in the war with turkey. There
are various reports regarding Viceroy
Alexieff's ultimate destiny.
The dispatch of the grand duke as
commander of both armies would &C.
cord with the traditions of the Roman
off dynasty, member of which i'm
perial family has always been in com
mand in all Of Russia's great wars.
General Grippenberg, commander of
the second army, was born in Janu-
airy, 1888. He is 10 years older than
General Kuropatkin, but ranks three
numbers lower in the list of generals.
General Grippenberg is Lutheran in
religion.
While General Grippenberg's distin-
guished war record is sufficient to eX-
plain the appointment, it is believed
Prince Sviatopolk-M irsky's recommen-
cation did great deal in that direc-
ton.
1t is now evident that General Line
witch will remain in charge of the
Amur district, including the defenses
of Vladivostok.
Marks New Phase of War.
Russia's recognition of the fact that
the forces now in the far east can not
successfully prosecute the war against
the men Japan is able to put in the
field, and the knowledge that the latter
power is now mobolizing 100000 men
for the front, and the decision to re-
organize the Russian army upon gi-
gantic scale in order to be able to as
sumo the offensive quickly marks a
new phase of the war.
Within three months three corps are
expected to reach Hardin, swelling the
total number of Russian soldiers in
Manchuria to considerable over half a
million.
The great struggle for mastery in the
far east now seems destined to assume
gigantic proportions.
General kuropatkin deems it wise to
make pubic unofficial dispatches
which indicate that Marquis oyama is
slowly continuing to advance.

we'd in the city last week with two
young white men who left this city
some days ago under owe of dark
ness. Their names are James Mon
arch and Lorenzo Spencer.
Last Monday morning was one
week ago since they left the city. On
the night before, they slept together
at the home of Spencer's father, on
William street, in the neighborhood
of the cotton factory. The elder
Spencer works at the cotton factory
and has other hands boarding with
him. On Monday morning after
the hands had gone to the factory,
Spencer and Monarch and made
Il search of the premises and took all
the valuables which they could carry
of, including jeWelry and wearing
apparel. AS soon as the articles
were missed the police were notified
and they began a search for the
young men. They were traced to
Calypso, where they disposed of a
gold watch. They were afterward
traced to Wilmington, where they
stayed some days and later on a let
ter came from Lumberton from
Monarch to hissweetheart and there
ny hangs a tale. The young lady, Of
course, did not divulge the secret.
She would not have done so and no
n would blame her for not doing
so, but the police were on the look
out and papers for the arrest of the
young men were forwarded to the
Sheriff of Robson, who made the
arrests of the young menand brought
them to this city last night. They
were placed in jail.
Monarch has made a full confess
sion and the two criminals will
await the action of the Superior
Court.

A REAL TO
GORDON.

The reaction to the general grief
over the departure of the gallant
Gordon can take no more proper
and appropriate direction than il
the tenderest devotion to the loved
ones whom he leaves behind.
The patriots family becomes in
some sense the ward and heritage O.
the South, and that gratitude is in.
deed short-lived and feeting which
expends its entire force in public la.
mentations over a hero's tomb,
leaving nothing of human kindness
and of human tenderness to those
who were dearer than the hero's
life.
There is a little way in which,
without ostentation and without en-
barrassment, the people of Georgia,
Confederate veterans, and people
throughout the country, can be very
kind to the widow of our late illus
trious citizen.
General Gordon was never a
money-maker, for few men of his
martial type of mind ever come to a
successful employment of their tai
ents and their energies in the work
of getting lucre.
His services have been given to
the public, and his generosity was SO
lavish and so constantly invoked
that he did not lay by much store OF
riches in his life or leave large store
of comforts when he went away.
One of the investments which he
planned for the future Of his family
was in his written book of reminis-
cences Of the Confederate States. This
book has been on sale now for some
weeks and has been largely in de-
mand throughout the State and
country. Bot the receipts from ita
disposal have not been large enough
to put his family upon a plane oil
comfort.

Dear Sir: Clothing is just like
paint. 1t fits OF it don't; it wears or
it don't; turns weather and water or
not; and goes out OF fashion.
What do we wear clothes for? Did
you ever think of it? Different per-

but one paints Devoe tor beauty, to
be in the fashion, and keep-out wa
ter.
Fashion says paint: we all paint.
There is beauty in paint; we paint a
good deal for that. And buildings
are costly and fashionable; put-on a
| waterproof two or three coats of
paint, and your building last as long
as you keep them dry. 1T costs moth
ing to paint; it costs your buildings
not to.
Devoe is the paint that lasts; dis
appointing paints are the paints that
cost.
