The Navyi
From the New York Sun.


1t is easier to fight at the coast than In
the interior. The place to keep out intrud-
ers is at the door. The gateways of this
nation are Its seas, and those who would
take the watchdogs from the gates are
short-sighted indeed. Every movement in
the Japanese plan Of campaign up to the
present time goes to show not only that the
navy is the pioneer that blazes a path for
the army, but that its operations reach
far beyond the zone of it's immediate ac-
tivity and make themselves felt in the re-
mote interior.

This promised platform will be out soon ana De
placed where IL will be to the peoples con-
"venience" Mr. Inman doesn't say where. when

not? This is a free country. and fortunately.
there is no law to prevent anybody's saying that
he is a candidate for the Presidency. Nor is
such announcement legal proof of mental IN
capacity on the part Of the announcer.
Mr.. Inman modestly tells us that his plat

Let us hope that he will hurry It along. A num-

TIE NOISY NELGHBoR OF NAPLES.

Vesuvius. which during the last few days
has excited wonder and apprehension by a re-
newal of activity, is the scene OF comparatively
frequent demonstrations of this kind. Erup-
tions have been reported to be in progress there
at least half dozen times since 1872. one
occurred only last year. in July. The outbreaks
differ in violence, TO be sure, but they usually
effect n breach in the rim of the crater, ana
are attended by explosive phenomena which
greatly startle the residents OF adjacent cities
and villages. Vesuvius, like Pelee, belongs TO
a class Of volcanoes which are conspicuously
unlike another, Of which Mauna Loa IS a nOta-
bic representative. The former make q tremen-
dous racket but do not eject much material.
The latter have a larger output. but conduct
operations far more quietly.
The destruction wrought by volcanic action
is ACCOMPLISHED in Il variety OF ways. When
Krakatoa on a tiny islet near Java, blew up
IN 1883, many thousands were drowned on ad-
jacent shores by an enormous tidal wave which
followed. ST. Pierre was ruined and her people
were almost instantly killed by a tornado blast
from the side of Pelican incident that is ap-
parently unique in history. Much more com
mon is the burial Of villages. people and cattle
in ashes and lava. Finally. in many instances
the earthquake shocks which sometimes accom-
pany volcanic eruptlons work greater havoc
than any other feature OF the disturbance.
Such was the case at the time of the outbreaks
of ColIma, in Mexico and Santa Maria in
Guatemala. in 1902.
AS yet 1t seems 10 be impossible 10 obtain
any useful premonltiOn Of these great catastro-
phes or even OF less formidable developments.
Predictions are frequently made by men who
have no standing in science. and who never
appear to be abashed over their repeated fall
ures, but that sort of prophecy does not count.
Others who are better qualified 10 form al
opinion occasionally express it, but afterward
have reason for regret An Italian expert was
sure that Vesuvius would be greatly disturbed
In 1902 Nothing happened until September Of
that year and the outbreak was Iriftng com
pared with the one in July. 1908. certain
Harvard geologst confidently expected TO see
Pelee exhibit as much violence in September,
1902 as it did IN the preceding May, but he
was doomed 10 disappointment. For two or
three weeks before the sudden annihilation OF
St. Pierre Pelee had been behaving very much
as Vesuvius is behaving now. y resumption
Of activity after an interval of half a century
naturally gave rise TO much anxiety; yet the
shrewdest scientific advisers OF the Governor
Of Martinique assured him that fight was Gh-
/ necessary. To what extent official warming
! would have induced the populace to seek safe
! ty by running away it is not easy 70 say, but
trustworthy basis for such a proclamation
has evidently not been found.

night that he did not think his patient would live
through the night.
As an oficer in the Austrian army in 1865 he dis
played so much bravery at the battle OF Sadowa
that two medals bestowed on him by En-
peror Francis Joseph. He resigned from tho army
in 1874 and came to this city TO engage with his
brothers In the manufacture OF bread and yeast.
In which he made large fortune.
AS his riches increased his charities grew. One
or his charities, the giving away OF bread needy
men, led TO the formation OF the bread line near
