GETS PLENTY OF LIGHT.

One Hotel Guest Who Travels Pre-
pared For Emergencies.
Il called on friend ut one of the
New York hotels the other day." said a
man, "and found him in room that
was far, for away from daylight.
There was one electric light, which did
not make the apartment lnstrous. We
had some papers to look over, and l
instinctively moved over near the air
shaft window.
81 can do better than that he said,
going to his satchel and taking out an
electric bulb. I carry this around with
me for just such OCCASIONS he laughed.
THAT one does well enough for tran
silent guests who are not in their rooms
except to sleep, but sometimes l need
more than sixteen candlepower, and l
carry thlrty-two.'
HE unscrewed the sixteen, and in a
jiffy had on his thirty-two. The cur
rent was there, all right, and we had
no more trouble about too little light
Later he showed me large gas tip
which he carried along for hotels that
used gas instead of electric light. This
needed a pair of pliers in addition, but
he had them in his small box, and he
told me 1t was mighty poor quality of
gas and powerful low pressure that
wouldn't respond with the goods when
he put on his accommodation tip. There
is nothing CRAFTY about that little
scheme possibly, but just the same he
is getting something the landlord is
paying for."-New York Press.

THE AMERICAN TtIEATER.
1t should Not DC Toy-It should
BE Made an Educator.

1t Should Not DC n Toy-It Should
BE Made an Educntor.
10 claim that the stage, no matter
how improved, could work an immedi-
ate revolution in tic manners and taste
of our people would be manifestly alb
surd, but it is entirely safe to say that
the theater could, in the matters which
apparently sounimportant in life, yet
which mean SO much, be an important
factor In molding at least the eXternals
of our national character. This means,
however, that, busy us we are, we
should give the theater a more impor-
tant place in our thoughts and in our
scheme of popular education than that
Mt present allotted to It, Nor is the
claim that the theater might be made
a teacher Of improvement in the minor
things Of life the only one that can be
made for 1t. 1t might be made the me-
dunn for the elevation of the popular
taste in all the arts and in literature
and even for the incubation of the prin-
ciples of lofty thought and right living.
1t may seem strange that people 80
clever as we are have neglected this
potent influence for good and have re-
garded it only rs toy for our amuse-
ment, to be shaped and fashioned by
the toy merchant solely with n view
to making 1t catch the fancy and there
fore become salable and profitable
article Of merchandise. But, as we are
a busy and. on the whole. a self satisfied
people, beyond our pursuits and ambi-
tons we look only for the amusements
which shall be the least burden to us.

PELICAN ISLAND.
Home Of All the Pelicans of the r
Coast ar ISlnrtLo

Home Of All the Pelicnns of the East
Coast of Florida.
In that long narrow lagoon on the
east coast Of Florida known MS Indian
river there is muddy islet three or
four acres In extent. Originally it
doubtless did not differ from hundreds
OF similar neighboring islets, but, for
some reason past finding Cut. this islet,
and this alone, forms the nesting resort,
the home, Of all the pelicans of the In
dian river, IL not, indeed, of the east
coast Of Florida. The brown pelican,
unlike Its white cousin, nests normally
In low trees and bushes, and there is
evidence that when the original pelican
colonists landed on the tslet which now
bears their name 1t was well grown
with black and red mangroves, in which
the birds placed their scaffolding of
sticks. Exceptionally low temperature
and high water-perhaps also excessive
Use by the birds, which sometimes
build rs many us seven nests in II
single mangrove-have killed tree afte,
tree, until at present only three service
able trees remain. Still the, birds come
back, the impelllng motive which
prompts them to return to this particu-
lar spot being evidently stronger than
that which induced them to nest iii
trees.-Frank NJ. Chapman In Century.

"PELEs HAIR"
A Product of the Gigantic Hawaiian
Volcano MRuna Lon.

A Product of the GiEantic Hawaiian
Volcano Mnunn Lon.
Mauna Loa, the gigantic Hawaiian
volcano, has two craters or openings,
one of which, Kilauea, is the largest
active volcanic crater in the world.
The mountain Is 14,100 feet high and
Kilauca is situated on the eastern side
about LOCO feet above the level of the
sea. This marvellous crater is really n
vast lake of boiling lava which rises
and falls continually by the action of
subterrancan fires. In tossing to and
fro like n troubled sen of molten
metal the lava is dashed against the
cliffs and hardens there in the form OF
long CLASSY iilaments, gigantic knobs
miniature trees and in imitation of
grass. leaves. etc.
Another form of CLASSY filament to be
found along the shores of this fiery lake
Is in the shape OF queer punches and
tufts of lava made up of an aggre.
CATION of vitreous threads which the
natives call "Pele's hair" Pele being
the goddess to whom the mountain
Is dedicated. These CLASSY threads
appear to be caused by the passage
Of steam through the molten lava.
In SO doing small particles in the
shape of bubble-like balloons are
thrown into the air, leaving tail be
hind like comet. When the scene OF
these miniature steam cruptions is neal
rock OF shore all solid and cool sur
faces are found covered with punches
of "Pele's hair" This chair" was for
merly used in mystic native cercmo

ST. PETERSBURG.
The Terrors of It's Climate In the
Spring and Autumn.

The Terr0rs of It's Climate In the
Spring and Autumn.
"There is something repulsive in the
climate Of st. Petersburg in the early
spring and autumn" says n writer,
when the thermometer often falls 30
degrees In a few hours, when the roads
are ankle deep In snow broth or mud,
when the winds blow raw and cold
from every quarter of the compass and
the quick moving droskies shower the
denominations of the roads impartially
upon noble and peasant. 1t is no con-
ISOLATION to the visitor to know that the
Neva Is sealed by tee early in Novem-
Der or late in October. Long indeed
before the frost king has stalked down
to the latitude Of st. Petersburg the
lordly river is completely blocked.
Great ice sheets from stormy Ladoga
foat down the current. They crash
against the mighty buttresses of the
bridges, cling to the banks and grad
ually accumulate until the whole length
Of the river, which unites the greatest
lake in Europe with the gulf of Fin
land, is completely choked. The ice is
reared higgledy piggledy at every con-
ceivable angle. 1t is strange sight this
broad stretch Of water, impossible and
icebound while the temperature of the
surrounding country is often many de-
grees above freezing point"

Hearst Says Party Devotion Divides
Peoples Strength.

William R. Hearst addressed an
audience OF l2,S0S people at the old
Salem Chantauqua near Springfield.
Illinois, one day last week. He advo-
Gated political independence and
vigorously contended that good cit
izenship demanded more than blind
party fealty.
The following is an extract from
VIM. Hearst's address;
To-day there are great issues,
the same issues that have divided
people since human society was
formed.
Lincoln said:
"There are two principles that
have stood face to face from the be-
ginning of time, and will ever con
tinue to struggle. 1t is the same
principle in whatever shape it devel-
opes itself. 1t is the same spirit
that says, you toll and work and
earn bread and Ill eat it" No
matter in what shape it comes,
whether from the mouth of a king
that seeks to bestride the people Of
his own nation and live by the fruit
of their labor, or from one race OF
men as an apology for enslaving an
other race, it is the same tyrannical
principle"
The same issue exists to-day in
trust domination, trust oppression,
trust extortion. There is still a
class that says.
"You toll and work and earn
bread and IL eat it." but neither
of the old parties distinctly repre-.
sents either side of this issue
There are trust Republicans and
Lincoln Republicans.
There are trust Democrats and
Jefferson Democrats.
No longer does the word Dem.
ocracy define any definite doctrine
OF the word Republican express any
particular principle.
Under such conditions party devo,
ton only divides t h people,
strength and fortilies their enemies
who are united against them.

Canal Locks In China.

The contrivances for locks along the
Grand canal in China are very simple
stout boards, with ropes at each end
of them, being let down edgewise over
each other through grooves in the stone
piers. Boats are dragged through and
up the sluices by means of ropes COM
municating with large windlasses
worked on the bank, which haul them
safely, but very slowly. Artificial
basins were followed out in the banks
of the canal at these locks, where boats
might anchor securely. The sluices
which keep the necessary level are Of
very rude construction. Soldiers and
worlimen are constantly in attendance
ut these sluices, and the danger to boats
is diminished by coils of rope hung
down Mt the sides to break the force
Of possible blows.-Technical World

Immediately after the second shock

flying darkness. This. however, did not

in an extreme state of terror, many
believing that the end of the world
