Cruising in Southern Waters.

D. NJ Dunsmore, Sr., received a
letter few days ago from his son,
Duncan M. Dunsmore, Jr., written on
board the U. S. Cruiser, Colorado" at
Culebra, Virgin Islands, West Indies.
In speaking of the trip from Newport
News, Duncan says "We passed Old
Fort Comfort, where | saw Fortress
Monroe, Rip Raps and the buoy mark
ing the place where the frigate,
Cumberland" sank after being ram
med by the "Merrimac." All OF these
are good old civil war relics. When
we passed Hatteras we had very rough
weather. The Colorado" in spite of
her size, pitched around pretty bad.
Unfortunately l was on watch from
1900 to 400 that night and | was not
feeling WE'LL though not actually sea-
sick. We saw great many hying-fish.
1t is very interesting to watch them.
They rise about two feet above the
water and skim along for thirty or
forty feet before dropping.
1t seems strange that one week ago
we were in cold country and here
everything is green. Culebra is about
l60 miles east of San Juan There are
but few houses on the island and a
company of marines. We can see coffee,
cocoanuts, bananas and other tropic
fruits growing on shore. The houses
are mostly made of grass, woven on the
walls and thatched on top. The houses
are perched on trees or four little sticks
and look as though good breeze would
blow them over. The people are most
ly negroes. Tomorrow is my liberty
day and am going ashore to get some
souvenirs"

Last sunday morning three distressed
and dishevelled looking men staggered
back into the alley beside the Spirit
office. Two Of them were middle-aged,
blear-eyed, wretched appearing indi-
viduals, and the third was young and
strong. They huddled together, trembl-
ing and shivering, and produced a pint
hask OF whiskey, from which they all
drank. Whskey had brought them
to that state, and they were appealing
to whiskey to get them out of it. A
more complete picture of misery could
scarcely be imagined. The whiskey was
evidently not palatable, for they all
made faces at it as though it nearly
strangled them going down their parch-
ed and inilamed throats. But what
they drank last night had left their
nervous systems in such state of
collapse and utter mental and physical
depression, that the flame must be re-
kindled by additional draughts of the
fiery fluid. Man is supposed to be the
only animal endowed with the faculty
of reason, but we know of no other
animal so profoundly Indifferent to its
own well-being and happiness as to eat
or drink that which it knows will re-
duce 1t to abiect misery and degrada-

THE STATE GRANGE.
T. T. Altman, Press Correspondent.

There is no danger of race suicide,
national suicide or any other great evil
among class OF people who are Indus
trious, prosperous and contented, people
who must work because they are not
able to live without it and who are not
yet driven by want, not enervated by
poverty, on the one hand nor by luxury
on the other. Such is the Amer ican
farmer. That he may remain such he
must be vigilent. He needs to have a
clear understanding of the agencies for
good and evil that are at work in the
land. With one hand he must help the
good and with the other restrain the
evil. He cannot afford to be passive
and expect to remain unhurt. If he
hopes to hear the well Done" OF the
good christian and to be regarded as a
worthy descendant of the men who
founded the Republic he must see to it
that he gets for his own use the full
measure of the wealth he produces.
Anything less means that his class must
step to lower plain of living. This
continued long enough leads to serfdom.
The farmers in the grange are lealously
guarding the interests of the farm.
How is it with those outside ?
One man among S0,000 900 is indeed
but human atom. To command at
tention he must be endowed with great
ability and must be possessed of great
attainments. Even then the most he
can do is to influence and persuade. To
command he must have associated with
him a large number of his fellows whose
ways of thinking and whose interests
are identical with his own. If this is
true of earths greatest, where does the
average individual stand ? Alone he is
pitably helpless. He can hope to have
his rights recognized and his interests
protected only when through organiza-
tion he has the cooperation of others
working in the same line.
The enterprisiug farmer is realizing
this in these latter days and as result
the Grange continues to grow.

VANDALISM IN ITALY.

Florence.-For centuries con-
spicuous object on the beautiful hill
of Arceti, above Florence, the famous
"Star tower of Calico, where the
great astronomer made many of his
most important discoveries, is now
practically ruined. What goes by the
name of commercial enterprise Is re-
sponsible for this act OF vandalism
which robs the world of another of its
historic places of pilgrimage. The pic
turesque structure has been swathed in
scaftolding, while workmen have been
cutting down the quaint castellated
tower by third of it's former height,
piercingeits walls with two new tiers
of windows and adding loggia.

The recent decree Of the car to
abolish the censorship Of the press
will relieve Krivochlik of a great deal
of his responsibility. The new Russian
press law is similar to that enforced
in Germany, newspapers are allowed
to print almost anything, but the
editors are made responsible for every
thing appearing in their papers. $50
Foreigners cannot imagine the sys-
tenn Of censorship prevailing in Russia.
One has to observe at close range the
effect Of the system on the daily press.
It is seldom that any paper appears on
the streets here or in any place in Rus
STA without great black spots plotting
out sections, and even whole columns.
The censorship now is not as rigor-
GUS as it once was, but it still is q
great force. News gets out of Russia
that is not allowed to see the light Of
day within it's borders. To the for
eigner the system Is not easily ex-
planned, for type is plotted out that
would seem to have no bearing on tho
internal affairs; sometimes the most
innocent of items disappear because
they would set the readers to thinking.
For instance, an eclipse Of the moon
might lead the superstitious to imagine
that some hard blow was to be struck
to the empire. ss.-.-' .s,&- SO
The system requires, it is plain, the
highest intelligence and learning on
the part of those who revise the press
reports, and even then the Job is not
a bed of roses, for some one high in
authority will be found Directing to
items that have not been blotted out.

ITO the Anglo-Saxon race" says
one writer, who has protested too late

scene Of the classic meeting between
John Milton and the great Italian
astronomer. Indeed, in the whole his
tory of science and, literature there is
no incident more picturesque or affect

Puritan poet, young and vigorous, with
his brain teeming with conceptions for
his mighty epic, to the Florentine sage,
blind, old and prosecuted for affirming
the great truths Of the solar system
