"Strange things have been hap
pening in the South Sea islands,"
writes a Sydney correspondent Of
the Chicago Daily News. "In Sa.
moa a volcano has broken on.
which belched forth a torrent OF
molten lava three miles wide clear
to the sea. Fortunately the land
over which the torrent flowed
was n desert, and,' though the
sight was singularly impressive,
very little harm was done. From
he Marshall islands, however,
ONES a different tale. There
terrific hurricane swept over the
atolls and islets of which the
group is composed, and Jaluit,
where most OF the European set
tiers reside, was washed by an
enormous wave at least six feet
high, which suddenly transformed
that islet into a lake in which the
natives with their families swan
for their lives and the native
houses iloated about.
AT noon the day OF the hurri
cane at Jaluit the sky was pitch
dark, except for balls Of fire which
occasionally lit up the scene,
Breadfruit and cocoanut trees
were knocked down and piled up
as high as houses. The mission
building, by far the finest in the
Marshall group, was reduced to
ruins. Large masses of rock and
coral washed up from the lagoon
were strewn about here and there.
OF the magnificent wharf which
the Germans had erected at cost
OF much labor and money not o
trace remains. Over 20 natives
were killed by falling trees or
were drowned and, with the ex
ception Of the German company's
large store, Jaluit was almost en-
tirely destroyed.
European residents took shell
ter successfully in a bowling al
ley, an oven, a bathhouse, a bar
and eventually in store and man
aged to survive. The new steam
er, the Germania, with the utmost
difficulty succeeded in riding out
the storm. Altogether they eem

Educational.

The public schools of this dis
trict are closing very prosper
Gus school year. The season
and the health Of the people
have both been favorable for at
tendance which has been good
during the whole term. Thus
nearly all the pupils in the
grades were able to secure pro-
motions emitting them to enter
the next higher grade on their
return to school next fall.
In reviewing the educational
work Of the year two or three
items stand out prominently and
deserve more than general con-
sideration. No doubt the step
taken, which means most, is the
erection and equipment of the
new Primary School Building.
That building with its we'll
lighted, heated and ventilated
rooms provides for the primary
children the very best of environ
ments in that line The effects
are already apparent but OF
course will be more potent an
other year as the building was
net in use until January of this
year.
Another movement deserving
commentator is the high school
movement. And, though in its
infancy, the Lehi High School
has this year provided the first
two years of work to fifty-fve
young people who in the absence
of the high school would have
been obliged to leave home or be
denied the advantages of a high
school education.
The high school bids fair to
become strong factor in the in
tellectual and moral uplifting OF
our young people. 1t is encour-
aging that such support is being
given to the work. The school,
itself, looks forward to the time
when a special building will be
provided for high school pur-
poses.

very little more effort will have

HIS "HoME, SWEET HOME"
I1ou Where John Howard Payne
Woo, I'D Won His Wife
STANDS in Athens, Ga.


In modest street in Athens,
Ga, stands the "Home, Sweet
Home" OF John Howard Payne's
soEg-the house where he met
and wooed his sweetheart and
promised wife, Mary Harden,
writes N. Josephine Brangwin, in
the Pilgrim.
At that time Payne was max.
ing a theatrical trip through the
south, and stopped at Athens.
Here he met Mary, and il was II
case of love at first sight with
both. He returned TO New York,
but loves spell was strong, and he
soon came back. With each re-
turn his stay was prolonged, and
finally he engaged board with
Mary's mother, and here, for a
number of years, he made his
home.
The house is a well-preserved
wooden structure, painted white,
and stands with it's side facing
the street. 1t is built in no par.
ticular style. Its plain lines and
long slanting roof in the rear re-
semble the Long Island farm
house; the green blinds, wide, com
Portable porch across the front
C"the gallery" it is called by the
people of the south, the pleasant
airy hall, give it typical south
ern appearance.
There IL small grassy lawn
shaded by sweet gum and magno-
liza trees, and in the rear OF the
house is a Irofusion Of honey.
suckles.
Inside the house, at the left OF
the hall, Is pleasant, well.lighted
parlor and here Payne wrote. On
one side is brick fireplace that
gives the room an old time atmos
phere which even the substitution
OF modern glass in the low, broad
windows, cannot wholly. destroy
Here by the wall stands Payne's
favorite chair with one of il.
quaint arms and a part of the
rush bottom gone the way of al
things. Above the chair hangs
the picture of Mary's mother, o
sweetfaced woman clad in black
silk and dainty lace, and acros,
from the mother the pictures Of
Payne and Mary, hanging side b,
side. The picture OF Payne is .
fine oil painting done in New
York and presented to Mary on
he eve OF his departure for Emr
land. The one of Mary is done ia
India ink.
Mary Harden was Payne's first
and only love. At home aud
abroad he was feted and BATTERED
praised for Is beauty and abilit,
and constantly thrown in the su
ciety of beautiful and accUm
pl shed women, hut never was his
heart d loyal to this southern
girl. That they did not marry was
because of his poverty. He was
an interchangeable worker, but 9th
ers, not himself, profited by his la
bors. His death was caused b.,
mental strain and financial EN-
barrassment.

FOR SUNDAY TRAINS


More than usual interest is being taken
in the announcement that the Pennsyl.
vania railroad officials are considering the
subject of Sunday trains over the Della.
ware railroad and numerous people are
trying to devise the best plan of inducing
the officials TO give a favorable reply.
Il has been suggested that the people
of the various places along the Delaware
railroad Combard the railroad officials
with petitions asking for Sunday trains
and it has also been suggested that the
Boards OF Trade in various places com.
mend the move. Some people however,
are opposed to Sunday trains, but it is
thought they are in very small mi.
nority and that the greater portion OF the
people OF the state are in favor OF Sunday
trains being run. Nearly all of the news
papers in the state have also given their
support to the plan and favorable action
by the railroad company is looked for.
It is expected that Sunday trains will
be tried and if they do not do good
business they will be withdrawn. There
is little doubt, however, among those
who have looked into the subject, that
the trains Will pay.
