EARTHQUAKE WAS so SEVERE
MEN COULD NOT STAND ON
FEET.

VALPARAISO (Chile), August 23.-
Some of the business houses reopened
here today for the first time since the
earthquake. Telegraphic and tele-
phonic communication with Santiago
has been re-establshed. The city is
still under martial law. Traffic ceases
at 6 o'clock in the evening. Every
body is compelled to take some part in
! the work of restoring normal conci-
tions.
One of the greatest difficulties en-
countered by the authorities is the in
torment of the bodies recovered from
the ruins, as all the cemeteries were
destroyed. At the various temporary
morgues heaps of collins have been
accumulated, awaiting the designation
of their place of burial. The work of
recovering the bodies is being pushed
to the utmost in order to avoid an cpl
demic, in fear of which many families
are leaving the city

Serpent rings, breaches, bangles and
necklaces are to be the fashion in the
big cities this season, dealers having
already received many orders for
jewelry Of a "snaky" description.
One lady is having made a belt in
the form of a gold rattlesnake and at a
recent New York ball one of the guests
wore a coronet composed of jeweled
snakes.
1t is intimated that the new fashion
will develop and that ladies will study
the art OF snake charming, deserving
their toy dogs for pet reptiles.

Restore Life After Death.
Claim That Vic tins of Electric Chair
Can Be Brought Back to Life.

To be able to restore life after cleo
trocution is the claim of ]. M. Berger,
an expert electrician, who states that
by his method person electrocuted at
one of our prisons, and pronounced
dead by the attending physicians, may
be restored to life. His only require
ments are that he be allowed to take
the body within fifteen minutes after
life is pronounced extinct and that the
brains be not baked or the lungs car
donated.
Mr.. Berger states that he, himself
received more volts than are supposed
to be necessary to kill man and that
he knows Of cases where as high as
5000 and 1000 volts have gone through
mems bodies and they have been re-
stored to life and health.
He cites as an illustration, the case
Of Joseph Averell, Baltimore line
man, who was caught in an alternating
current of 5000 voltage and thrown
from pole to the middle Of the street.
He was removed at once to the city
hospital and emergency treatment was
quickly applied. Both of his hands
were burned to a crisp and his skull
was almost fractured by the fall to
the street, but he recovered.
Mr.. Berger's method is very simple
and one that he claims may be followed
by any person who is cool-headed and
not likely to become excited. He lays
the victim Of electrocution on his back
with a rolled coat or blanket under his
shoulders so that the head is allowed to
fall backwards. The operator should
kneel behind the head of the patient,
facing him, grasp the elbows and draw
them well over the head, so as to bring
them almost together above and hold
them there for two or three seconds.
He should then carry the elbows down
to the sides and front of the chest,
firmly COMPRISING it by throwing his
weight upon the elbows.
After two or three seconds, the arms
should be carried above the head and
the same manoeuversshouldb be repeated
at the rate of fifteen or sixteen times
a minute. The operators must remem-
Der that the manipulation must be con-
Quoted with methodical deliberation,
Just as described, and never hurriedly
or half heartedly. In addition to this,
the tongue must be drawn out to free
the throat A cloth should be used in
holding the tongue so IL will not slip.
IL must be drawn out when the arms
are held above the head and allowed to
recede when the chest is compressed.

of liberty. Already famous were the
pioneer scouts and warriors who en-
trenched themselves in that redoubt,
and yet more, famous and glorious be-
came their memory after the sanguin
airy and unequal fight. Men were they
heroes and intrepid characters, sur
rounded by a vast horde OF savage
Mexicans, with many an old score to
settle; yet not one thought Of surren-
der apparently entered their souls. The
last of them was killed by Mexican
bullets; but not until they had made
fearful accounting among the swarm
ing hosts of the enemy. The tragic
story of the Alamo will go down in
history as one of the greatest Of
battles, and Texas and the Nation
owes lasting debt of gratitude to the
woman who has saved its crumbling
walls and tnSsets.

LIKES FINE CHINA PIECES.

Under Mrs. Roosevelt's supervision
one of the most valuable collections in
this country has been placed on exhi-
bition in the basement of the White
House, and it is proud day when she
can add something of historic worth
to the treasures. The exhibit Is made
up entirely of remnants Of the dinner
sets which formerly served the Presi-
Dental families. 1t begins with some
rare gold-trimmed plates and cups and
saucers, which we're the pride of
Martha Washington's heart, and the
contributions continue down to the era
of Mrs. Mckinley.

MISS CLARA DRISCOL.
WHOSE ENERGY AND MONEY HAVE SAVED THE ALAMO.

"The Girl of La Gloria" being placed
on the market within the past year.
a Mexican Opera.
Partly on account of her intense in
terest in the Texas country and it's
people and partly because this is a
subject heretofore untouched in either
literature or drama she conceived the
idea of writing an opera in which
there should be only Mexican scenes
and characters.
Through the cooperation Of men
well versed in methods Of producing
operas, the whole story was put into
shape. Miss Driscol had collected a
ntiI7fS er of Mexican songs and dances
and folk lore music, all of the greatest
value in the arrangement of suitable
musical setting Inspired by these the
musical composer of the opera was en-
abled to gain the best results so that
the actual character OF the music as
well as the costumes and scenery
makes the play typically American.
The first night "Mexicana" was pro-
duced one of the principals, a woman,
carried out the time-honored associa-
ton of senoritas, sombreros and ciga-

ing one of these tiny rolls. Miss Dris-
col Immediately sought the stage
manager and demonstrated stating that
the better class of Mexican women do
not smoke, contrary to the general I'M
preston that all women in tropical
countries indulge in the habit; there
after this seemingly necessary adjunct
was removed from the opera.
Miss Driscol has travelled extern
sively visiting almost every country
on the globe. When the Spanish Amer
lean War broke out she was In Spain
and while most of her American asso
ciates made haste to leave. as matter
Of safety, she stayed for six months
lopEer, assuming a Spanish name ana
living as a Spanish woman. That TINS
was possible for her to accomplish is
due to her brunette complexion, her
black hair and her brilliant black eyes:
She might easily pass as daughter OF
anv one of the Latin countries.
The history Of the Alamo is one
which must fire the imagination and
natriotism OF every son and daughter

Helen GOuId's Charity.

er Helen Gould, with the assistance OF
Elizabeth Altman, annually distributes
100000 in charity. Probably Miss
Gould supports directly and indirectly
more charities than any other one per-

reach 500 or more beneflciaries. Her
total disbursements during the last
eight years-and they are all made
with business judgment and through a
perfect system-reach $4,000,000.

Florida, although the whole of our
visit was not made as matter OF fact
in sunshine. We went into the old
Cathedral with it's three bells "all in a
row." and one smaller bell hanging
above, one of these being the Oldest bell
in the United States. We also visited
three of the principal churches in the
city-the pretty Episcopal, the unique
Methodist, and the beautiful Presby-
terrain church, the last memorial built
by Mr. Flagler for his only daughter.
Fort Marion, one of the sights of st.
Augustine is an old Spanish fort, de-
serted, but kept in repair for visitors.
We climbed the famous stairway to the
ramparts where the view of bay, har-
Dor, town and ocean Is so fine. l stood
in the sentinel towers on the four
corners of the Fort and almost imag-

houses is built of cochina; natural

has sprung growth of bright green,

At night it is an interesting sight to
saunter through these narrow pictures

shops, where the curiosity seeker could
find alligators stuffed in every size,
from the little ones, just coming out
Of their shells, to the great big fellows
that made you shudder, they looked so

On the last day which we spent in
st. Augustine, the sun came out, the air
was warm and balmy, the sky azure
blue without cloud, and l had my
hearts desire Of seeing st. Augustine
bathed in winter sun shine. Carriages
were being driven everywhere, side
walks were crowded, the hotel courts
and the plaza, and even the hotels
themselves looked so beautiful wished

We sat in the Casino, watching the

Marine Band. The scene was gay with
flags and banners of all nations while
the crowd kept coming and going like

Better than trading or leases,
Take a bank-note and fold It across
And observe your money In creases.

You'll double your roll; never lend Il.

able sum of money a Texas woman has
been enabltd to save to her native
state and to the United States one of
the most noted relics of Texan and
Mexican War times. The historical
Alamo, an old fort, originally a mon
astery, and the scene of one of the
most thrilling incidents of the Mex
lean War, was about to be sold, and
the ground utilized in the erection Of
a modern hotel.
The lesson taught by the handful Of
Americans who held the Alamo rather
than surrender, appealed so strongly
to Miss Clara Driscol, successful
author of magazine stories, that she
made an offer of sixty thousand dol
lars for the property and it was &C
cepted In speaking of this purchase
Miss Driscol said that If the Alamo, a
monument to the heroism of Texan
soldiers, had been destroyed it would
have made it impossible for her to live

fort came into her hands the people
of Texas woke up to the situation. A
bill was passed by the state legislature

fine and white. An old sea captain
| from Nassau had just landed his
schooner at the wharf so we paid him
a visit, bought some pretty pieces of
coral, and were treated to Cuban ba-
nanas and my husband to black cigars
as well. The Captain had some superb
tortoise shells. While he is on his
Trips, his young wife keeps little shop
and sells the treasures of the sea, with
which he keeps her richly supplied.
Goodbye To Old St. Augustine.
The next morning, after four days
visit, we had to say goodbye to this
fascinating old city. 1t contains so
much-the superb hotels with their
wealth of beauty and luxuriant courts
hlled with tropical vegetation. the
churches, the fort, the quaint old
streets, the shops, the bay, the sea. the
beautiful blue of sky and ocean. the
sunshine-ah me, it makes a picture I
shall never forget, a dream that has at
last been realized.
The next morning we rode by train
tor an hour through the pine woods
to Palatka, there boarding the little
steamer Osceola-which was to take us
20 miles through the st. Johns River
ana -lOl miles up the Oklawaha-the
indian name for Crooked Water"
Such a funny little tub is the Osceola.
1t is about so feet long by % feet wide.
fortunately we had telegraphed for
state rooms, as the boat was so crowd
ed that many passengers had to hang
on hooks. Our room was on the top
deck, and so spacious that only one of
us could get into 1t at time.
The Fascinating Oklawaha.
The st. Johns is quiet and monoto.
nous, but the beauty of the OkIawaha
is extremely fascinating-a narrow
river without banks, constantly turn
ing at right angles with itself, the
great tall cypress trees full of waving
gray moss, growing directly out OF the
water, which is of inky blackness. Now
ana then, but rarely, the river being
very crooked, there is a short vista
through these weird looking trees, with
tnelr branches reaching out toward
HeaVen, and the Spanish moss swaying
gracefully back and forth in the breeze.
The surface of the water was covered
with lily pads, "bonnets" the captain
called them, but it was too early in the
season for the lilies.
Now and then the steamer stoned
at lonely wharf to take on wood. and
on the upper deck at dusk, pine torches
were lighted which burned all night,
family Illuminating each side Of the
river, and creating most fantastic
shapes and shadows. About o'clock in
the evening, We heard the whistle OF
the down boat, and the pilot moored
us In part of the river wide enough
for her to pass. 1t was a beautiful
sight as we watched her lights, while
she twisted and curved her way toward
us, passing within a few inches of
the Osceola, the flame of her pine knots
casting weird shadows about us and
the darkies on board singing as with
cheers and hurrahs she slipped out of
sight.

Various are the reasons given for
the placing of the two buttons on the

they are a survival Of buttons which
we're used on the eighteenth century
