Advices from Valparaiso state that
the loss of life by the earthquake of
August Is probably will not be short
of 5000, while the property destroyed
is estimated at 800, 000,0 and pos
sibly more.
The inmates in many cases were UNI
able to escape from their homes. The
shock was followed almost immediate
ly by fierce storm, prostrating walls
that had been weakened by the earth
quake, and these broke trolley wires,
which flashed necessarily. The second
shock was even more severe than the
first.
Five minutes afterward fires started
in every direction, and the whole
town, which had been momentarily
in darkness, was Illuminated by gil
gantic flames. The fremen made
desperate fight, though there was lit
tie water, as most of the mains had
been broken by the earth tremor.

COTTON CROP IN GEORGIA
The State Department of Agriculture
Saws the Average Is Low.

The State Department of Agriculture
Says the Average Is Low.
The yield of the cotton crop of the
state will not average over IS or 10
per cent, according to the statement of
officials of the state department of az
reculture.
The crop has been seriously affected
by the dry hot weather which has fol-
lowed the rains of the early spring
and summer. Speaking of the yield
State Commissioner Hudson said:
''The crop has been quite deceptive,
but I learn that the sap has risen in
the stalks, which has made them very
large AMI promising, but the hot
weather has caused the bloom to be
very small, and l do not see how the
present crop can average more than
50 per cent, probably TO per cent, in
the most favorable sections"

THAT TWO-CENT INVESTOR
Now a Millionaire, and Has Bought
IL Great Palace.

The original two-cent investor in
government bonds, New York man
of the name of White, is now a mil
lionaire and owns one of the finest
residences in America-the palace
built at Long Branch by the late John
A. Mccall when he was president of
the New York Life Insurance Com
pany. Mr.. Whites bond deal, which
was like that of Byerly, cost him only
a postage stamp, and he solo his OPP
ton for enough to set himself I'D in
business on the New York stock ex-
change. A few days ago he gambled
heavily in Union Pacific stocks, and
is alleged to have won $1,000, 900. One
of his first acts on cashing in was to
buy the Mccall palace. In day he
had become a millionaire, and he de-
clared that he proposed to live in mill
lionaire style hereafter.

LIKE ROBINSON CRUSOE WILL LIVE FOR
THREE MONTHS ON UNINHABITED ISLAND

Like a Robinson Crusoe, though
without man like Friday and with a
certainty of rescue, Alfred J. Klein
will spend three months on Kerguelen
Island, away south of the Indian
Ocean and half way between Tas-
mania and the African coast. He is
being sent there by the Museum of
Natural History for purposes of re-
search, and expects to sail from Bos-
ton in September.
Through the voyage of a whaling
vessel the museum has obtained in
formation about Kerguelen Island
which leads to the belief that the
island contains many specimens OF
plant and animal life entirely UNI
known to the world of science. DR..
F. A. lucas, of the museum, concluded
that it would probably be profitable to
send someone there, and Mr.. Klein
has been chosen for the mission. The
chief reason for Mr.. Klein's going
alone is that no one is willing to ac-
company him and live three months
on. an uninhabited island far from
everywhere.
1t would be impossible to reach the
island, except by making special
trip there, were it not for a whaling
vessel going in that direction. A bar
gain has been made with the captain
of this craft which has been there be-
fore, and Mr. Klein will be taken to
and from the island. He will pay his
fare with the oil of the sea-elephants
he kills. The skins of the animals are

REMARKABLE FEATS.

Two remarkable facts are to be
noted in connection with the turning
over of the new Pennsylvania capitol

is that the building was completed
ahead of time, and the other is that of
the 81, 900, 900 appropriated there re-
manned an unexpended balance of $780,

FUR ON THESE CHICKENS
Eggs from Which They Were Hatch
ed Had Been in Cold Storage.

Eggs from Which They Were Hatch
ed Had Been in Cold Storage.
When Alonza Murphy of Newton,
N. j., set his favorite Plymouth Rock
hen two months ago he placed under
her lot CT eggs purchased i'll the vii
lage and which bore evidence of hay
ing been in cold storage. Mr.. Muir
phv was not at all confident that cold
storage eggs could be Matched, and he
was agreeably surprised when the old
hen in due time came off with a brood
of seventeen lovely little chicks.
The chickens grew rapidly, but 1T
was noticed that no feathers replaced
the down on their bodies. A close
examination showed that they were
covered with fur. 1t is Mr.. Murphy S
theory that through a wise and boun-
tiful provision nature adapts all ami
mate beings to their environments
The fur is thick and glossy and OF
various colOrs. The absence OF teath-
ers prevents these remarkable young
fowls from attempting to fly, which
Mr.. Murphy considers a distinct ad'
vantage. In ali other respects the
chickens are normal.

BIC APPROPRIATIONS
NEARLY BILLION DOLLARS WAS
THE SUM EXPENDED
BY THE RECENT CONGRESS
The Largest Item Was for the Post
office Department. The Canal
Again Comes in for Millions.

According to statement issued by
Thomas p. Cleaves and James c..
Courts, chief clerks espectively of the
senate and house committees on APP
preparations, congress at its last ses-
sion appropriated for the fiscal year
1897 nearly billion dollars. The ex-
act amount is 1919, 500, 1856. l6, repre-
senting an increase of $50, 404, 500 20
over the sum appropriated the last
session of the fifty eighth congress for
1906.
The largest item is contained in the
appropriation for the postoffice de-
partment, the amount being Sl9l, 695, .
99S.75. The next largest sum was Civ
en- for pensions, the money appropri-
ated amounting to $40, 245, 500, or
nearly twice as much as was allowed
for the support of the army and over
$40, 900, 900 more than was granted for
the naval establishment.
OF the net increase of $50, 434, $50. 20
over 1906 it is stated that $42, 447, POI. 08
was for the isthmian canal, the bal
ance being accounted for through the
appropriations for the carrying out of
the meat inspection law, the continu-
ance of contracts for river and har-
Dor work, the reorganization of the
diplomatic and consular service, and
the extension of the rural free deliv-
cry service.

the part valuable to the museum. The
institution will provide for the explor-
er's board.
Kerguelen Island, situated at lati-
tude 40 degrees south and longitude
70 degrees east, half way between
Africa and Tasmania, is as far from
the South Pole as Chicago is from the
North Pole. 1t is ninety miles long
and contains volcanoes and glaciers.
It's temperature seldom rises above so
degrees or falls below zero. 1t is ex-
cessively damp. There are no islands
near Kerguelen, and it has never been
inhabited for any length of time.
1t will be more than six months be-
fore Mr.. Klein knows how he likes the
Robinson Crusoe life, for although he
expects to sail in September, it will
take half a year to reach his destina-
ton Here the vessel will leave him
while it cruises for three months in
southern waters hunting for sea-
elephants. Mr.. Klein will spend his
time collecting and preparing speci-
mems of everything new he finds,
whether vegetable or animal. He will
take a good store of provisions with
him, but viii live as far as possible on
what he kills.
1t is not supposed that large ami
mails live on the island, but Mr.. Klein
will have plenty of monkeys to talk
to. When the vessel is ready to re-
turn she will stop at the island and
pick up Mr.. Klein with all his collec-
lions.

BOIL WEEV|L EXPERT
WILL REMAIN IN MISSISSIPPI
DURING AUTUMN SEASON.
BIG FORCE OF ASSISTANTS
Will Aid in Carrying Out Campaign
Planned Against the Destruct-

The United States department of
agriculture has instructed Professor
w. M. Bamberge, boil weevil expert,
to spend the autumn and winter peri
cd in Mississippi, and it is expected
that he will be given a force of assist
ants to carry out the work being
planned.
Within the next two weeks, or as
soon as the cotton season is we'll un-
der way, Professor Bamherge will
commence tour of the state for the
purpose of instructlng the farmers in
the use of fertilizers, illustrating the
methods whereby the greatest good
can be obtained from the smallest
amount of fertilizers.
The government will also enlarge
its scope of demonstration farm work,
with the view of inducing the cotton
growers to adopt the cultural method
whereby cotton can be matured from
two to four weeks earlier than under
the old methods of cultivation. The
demonstration farm work in the state
this year has been eminently success
full, and farmers who planted their cot
ton under the direction of Prof. BAN
be9ge are now engaged in picking,
while their neighbors will not send
pickers into the field until early in
September.

Compared with such Gargantuan

FOR THE CONSCIENCE FUND
One Five Cents for Unpaid Glass OF
Soda Water.


Soda Water.
Wen an Americas druggist opened
his mail yesterday one letter, traced
in a delicate feminine hand, contained
five cents in stamps. But the contents
made him shudder. The WI tier ex-
planned that while in Americas sew
eral years ago she drank glass of
soda water at his store which she sin
tentionally did not pay for, hence the
remittance of five cents. Evidently the
fair damsel, conscience-stricken at the
act which, like an avenging Nemesis
still pursued her, decided to square
the debt and thus obtain mental re-
lief. The letter came from north
Georgia town, and the stamps are the
real article. Times Record
