Letter from China.

The friends OF James Laraby have
just received letter from him dated
at ChefOO China and written the 10Th
OF last May. Since july last they had
not heard from him and this was the
first intimaUion they had received that
he had joined the navy. He has en-
listed for four years beginning with
December 1905 and expects to be a
chief engineer at the end Of that time
We print an extract from his letter
concerning the people of the Philli-
pines and the feet to which his ship
belongs.
He was first employed on the U. S,
receiving ship Independence which is
built entirely of wood, being 9S years
old. In 1872 she carried IA guns but
was refitted in 1885 with 81 guns and
some years after was made training

in America cannot think that this Is

CHILL,S .MLSFORTUNE.

Though the news is still fragmentary, no
doubt is now left that Chill was ,oyertaken Dy
a great calamity on Thursday evening. large
part-possibly one-half-Of Valparaiso has SUI
fered from fire, and difficulty has been expert
enced in checking the progress of the names
perhaps because the water supply has been cut
off as it was in san Francisco last spring.
Business is. of course, practically at stand
still for no one knows how long, and, while
explicit information about the loss of life and
the number of people who may be homeless ana
in need of food and shelter has been delayed
there is abundant reason for anxiety on that
account
The misgivings which have been entertained
in regard to Santiago. fortunately, are realized
only in part The capital Of the repuohc is
larger than Valparaiso and only sixty or seventy
miles away from it, and yet has suffered much
less than the great seaport.
The area within which the worst effects of the
heaviest shocks were felt is now little better
known than it was twenty-four hours ago. a
number of cities on and near the coast In the
northern half of Chilli have reported themselves
uninjured One of them Ovalli, is only $50 or
1T5 miles TO the north of Valparaiso. La Liqua
and Los Andes, which are said TO have been
badly damaged, are not more than fifty or sixty
miles distant, and both are small places. La
Liqua has population of ten thousand or twelve
thousand and Los Andes of only four thousand
or five thousand. The southern limit of the dis
turbed region is less perfectly defined. Com
municatiop with yaldivia and Conception is to
be had only through Valparaiso, and the chaotic
situation in that city may account for the failure
to secure tdings from them.
The people of Chill may rest assured Of the
lively sympathy Of all North America, and of
practical help if II is needed No other country
in the world is we'll qualified by recent expe-
rience as the United States to appreciate the
ordeal 70 which Chill has apparently been sub

THE PASSAIC AND THE HARBOR.

The interesting intimation comes from Wash
ington that plans are being prepared for the
radical improvement of the lower part of the
Passaic River and of Newark Bay, TO be exc
cuted as soon as Congress shall appropriate
the necessary funds. which il is expected TO do
next year. The plan comprises the opening of
a channel from the ocean up the river as far
as the upper part of the city of Newark.
which shall be at all times navigable by vessels
of twenty feet draft thus making Newark an
available port for coasting and many other
ocean going steamships of moderate size.
That the Passaic River is we'll worthy of such
attention is not TO be doubted. Even in it's
present condition it is an important avenue OF
commerce. Its tonnage twenty-five years ago
was only about 100000 a year. Now it is
more than 2.50O00O conveyed in more than
10000 vessels of various kinds, and valued ut
about $135,OO0.O0o. That it will continue to in
crease in volume and value, even with present
facilities. is scarcely questionable That in
crease of facilities would greatly increase the
rate of growth is practically certain. The $780,
600 now being expended in those waters by the
government is the merest trife compared with
the interests involved. The cost of the greater
Improvements now contemplated will be only 4
minute percentage of the value of a single years
traffic.
Not the least interesting and cOmmendabIe
"
hencefOrth Newark Bay and the lower reach
of the Passaic shall be regarded as n part Of
the harbOr of New York. and shall be devel.
oped en- that principle. That is logical view
TO take of the case. and its pursuance will be
advantageous to all concerned. The Passaic is
in another state than New York, and has upon
its banks another city. great enough 10 be cOT-

OF LEGENDG.

Really it is a shame to lose the romance of
Dorothy Vernon of HaddOn Hail. which has
charmed and thrilled two or three generations
and Inspired poets and painters TO be told that,
while the aforesaid Dorothy doubtless existed,
she was not ravishingy beautiful, but plain
almost 10 ugliness that she did not suffer do
nestle incarceration because of her tender pas
sion. but was rather encouraged and put for
ward in her love affair by her family, who were
probably somewhat anxious to marry her off :;
that she did not slip out OF the ballroom down
that famous fight of steps, and elope but was
married without opposition in most common
place bless -yOu-Iny children" way: that she
had 10 cruel steplnOther that her father was
not an oppressive ty"ant that her lover was not
adventurous and resOurCeful, or, at least, that
he had occasion in winning her to display
those qualities that the picture gallery ballroom
from which she was said to have fed to her
waiting lover was. in fact. built by her husband
long after their very prosaic marriage, as were
also the dorothy Vernon steps" which so many
thousands Of visitors have gazed upon with
tender sentiments; in brief, that the whole ro-

Belyoir to be entertained that, being smaller

similar character, were it not for the disquieting
query where all this iconocasm is to end That
is what gives us pause. Voltaire abolished Will
lam Tell, and I'm turn men declaring
half the stories about VOtaire himself to be
myths. Columbus and the egg, Wellingtons
"Up, Guards, and at 'em!" Pizarros sword
scratch in the sand, PocahOntas, George Wash
ingtons cherry tree and hatchet, and goodness
only knows how many more, have been discred-
tied, denounced, branded with "23." Jeffrey
even went so far as TO speak disrespectfully of
the Equator. Are all our legends, romances,
ideals, thus to fare? Yet we remember that the
very things for reporting which HerodOtus was
called the Father Of Lies have now been proved
quite true, according to his word while almost
every spadefu of sand which is turned up in
Egypt or Babylonia or Persia reveals indubi-
table confirmation of old tales which higher
critics" had long before relegated to the lumber
room of fable. So it may be that iconoclasm will
one day Overtake the iconoClast, and we may
again be permitted to thrill with sentiment over
the woes and joys and final triumph of Dorothy
