VAST uPHEAvALs IN JAVA.
In the Outbreak at Sunday Straits a
Mountain Sunk In the Sea.

Earthquakes and volcanoes are. be-
tific circles. 1t is good thing to have
a variety of earthquakes. Anyone who
has been amid the terrors of a gen.
uine upheaval of the earth's crust will
never forget it. All the fine spun
theories of theological hair splitters
and fake eXperimenters who dabble
with what they call science become
rubbish in the presence of the stu
pendous facts which the earthquakes
and volcanoes thunder forth.
In view of what has happened in
San Francisco and Chilli one can
more sincerely appreciate the terrors
of that awful display of the earth's
power when its crusts are broken up
ward, as was recorded during the
great disasters in Java
1t will be remembered at the time
of the outbreak in the straits of Sun
day that spectator standing on high
eminence nearly 20 miles away saw
the mountains burst into smoke and
steam. When the vapors blew away
he looked again and saw the sea
sweeping over the place where the
mountains had been.
Observing more closely he saw
mountain standing where the sea had
swept but a few hours before. A trav.
eler just from Java brings some strik-
ing pictures of the many craters and
cones dotting the landscape around
the mighty volcano of Smeroe.
From these eruptions streaming
from the central volcano came rivers
of mud and boiling waters. IN neigh,
boring outbreaks great forests were
uphcavcd and mountains mado.
Serpents, tigers, leopards, elephants
and other animals that were roaming
the jungle when the earthquake came
were seen hours later rolling down
the canyons of those mountains, float.

and roasted alive. Immense pythons
and other monstrous serpents from so
to 100 feet long were among the
sights. In some places the skins of
leopards and tigers as we'll as of the
serpents were all that could be found
except the skeletons within. The
flesh had been boiled and washed
away.

might remember what took place ages
ago when the Andes were flung aloft
from the great level wilderness of the
Amazon, with thousands of wild ami.
mails and serpents hurled down the
mountain sides in floods of boiling
water spouted from volcano geysers.

Objected to Favoritism.

An attache of the American en-
bassy at London tells story of a
butler in the employ of fine old
English family whose long service had
inculcated in him a personal and pro.
prietary interest in the sons and
daughters of the house.
Once, on the occasion of large din
ner party, the conscientious butler OBJ

family, young girl who had but re-
Gently entered society, was devoting
an amount of attention to her agreea-
BILE neighbor on the right obviously in
excess Of that accorded to the less
fascinating man on her left. This
fact perturbed the butler to a degree
that could no longer be borne in
silence. So, under pretense of passing
the culprit a dish, the butler man
aged to whisper respectfully in her
ear:

MORGAN HAD COD FISH.

A group of men was talking about J. Pierpont Morgan the other day, dis cussing his personal tastes and habits, when one of the listeners broke into the current of the talk by asking the members of the group if any of them had ever been into his house in Madi- son avenue, New York. Not one of them had. Well, I had to go to see him once," said the interrupter, "and do you know the thing that impressed me most was the thought that if had as much money as Morgan wouldn't let it be known to everyone who entered my hallway at that mo- ment that I was going to have boiled codfish for dinner. The place simply reeked with the odor of that dish, about which there can be no mistake to even the least indifferent nostrils."

and his body lay in an undertaker's
establishment in that city several
days before it was identified.
When Pawnee Bits show was in

would leave it and make a living
in the city. He loafed around the
streets for several days and at
tracted the attention of officer Mi

and started to arrest him for loafng,
but after being given an explanation
by McCaffy did not make the arrest.
He stated to the officer that he had
lost his mother and that had driven
him to drink, and he had Joined the
show. He tired of the show life,
and secured a position with the Nell
son-Morris company, of Atlanta. He
began work for the packing company

Saturday night, falling to turn up

around the streets for week, and
finally ended all by falling to his
death off the Magnolia street bridge.

the undertaking parlors Wednesday
morning and identified the man as
having worked for the packing COM

seemed to be brooding over some
deep trouble. After leaving the pack

parlors the body was
