WISE WORDS.

The only competition worthy a wise
man is with himself.-Anna Jane
son.
Few people impair their eyesight
by looking at the bright side OF
things.
To love earth's beauties is sign of
some capacity for loving heavens
content.
The true incentive to a useful and
happy labor must be pleasure in the
work itself.--William Morris.
Childhood often holds a truth in
It's feeble fingers which The grasp of
manhood cannot retain and which it
is the pride of utmost age to recover.
John Ruskin.
We praise the things we hear with
much more willingness thaa those we
see; because we envy the present,
and reverence the past; thinking our
selves instructed by the one and over
laid by the other.-Ben Johnson.
The riches of the world, and the
qualifications they afford, are too apt,
when their evil tendency is not op-
posed by a principle of religion, to
beget that friendship for the world
which is enmity to God.-Bishop
Horseley.
1t is beautiful art-the art of liv-
ing we'll in poverty. 1t calls for an
alert Intelligence and a cultivated
tasto and a ready invention. 1t is
not the vocation of a dullard Brains
must be mixed with it. One who
takes it up with courage ,aHtS~gUea-
will finds In it culture foFrall the finer
faculties.-Washin GLADDEN..
The soul is such an instrument
that no sooner is it set at peace with
itself than it becomes an instrument
in tune, a living instrument, dis
coursing heavenly music in its
thoughts and chanting melodies of
bliss even in its dreams. When a
soul is in this harmony no fires OF
calamity, no pains of outward tor
ment can for 4 moment break the
sovereign spell of its joy.--Horace
Bushnell.
How hard it is tc feel thatsssss,
power of life is to be found mSidesI
not outside; in the heart andi
thoughts, not in the visible actions
and show; in the living seed, not in
the plant which has no root! How
often do men cultivate the garden of
their souls just the othersway! How
often do we try, and persevere in try
ing, to make a sort of neat show OF
outer good qualities. without any
thing within to correspond, just like
children who plant blossoms without
any roots in the ground to make
nrettv show for the hOuri-TemDle.

In high numbers the eItraetion)y'

Pensacola, Fla. Especially - The
worst hurricane to visit this city in
its history ragged here furiously all
Thursday night and Friday morning
and with a gale still blowing, the city
presents wrecked appearance and
the damage is estimated at $4,000

blew at so miles for three hours,
then increased to Go miles. From
that time until o'clock A. NJ, 1t re-
mained about so anu 90 miles an
hour. The tides from the bay backed
into the city for blocks, destroyed
homes and making rivers out Of
streets.
When the gale was at its highest,
women and children were running
frantically about the streets in dark
ness, the alarm OF fire was sounded
and this added to the confusion.
The fire started in the Pitt Mill.

roofs flying about them; trees and
wires falling over them the firemen
took their hose wagons by hand and
rushed down the streets to the scene.
and after hours of work controlled
the blaze.
War Vessels MAY BE Lost.
NO communication can be had with
the navy yard, but ii is believed that
the yard has been badly damaged. A
number or warships were there.
The vessels there undergoing re-
pairs were the gunboats Vixen. Ma
chias, lsla de Luzon and Gloucester,
besides several smaller craft and the
quartermaster's steamer Poe. They
were in an exposed position, and il
is feared they may have been
beached.
OF the so or GO big steamers and
sailing vessels lying in the harbor
only 5 or are there now. They
have been driven ashore, and along
the water front is a mass of wreck
age of steamers, tow boats, launches
and sailing craft of all descriptions.
Thirty fishing vessels in port have
been destroyed or damaged, and the
three big fishhOuses, with their
wharves, are gone. Muscogee wharf
and the Commandments and Tara
gona wharves of the Louisville Rail-
road are badly damaged.
Great iron ships of 1000 and 5000
tons have been driven not only
ashore, but have gone through houses
block from the water front.
Thieves Busy Amid Wreckaoe.
Every house along the water front
for distance of 10 miles has been
destroyed, and the wonder is that the
loss of life is not greater.
Every business house from the
wharf, on Palafox Street, to the
Union Depot, has been unroofed
many plate-glass windows broken.
stocks badly damaged and wires and
poles all mixed up together. There
are no electric-light, car, telegraph
or telephone service.
Added to the horror of the situa-
tion is the thieves, who are breaking
open trunks all along the beach, en-
tering unoccupied houses and steal
ing everything in sight. Several ar
rests have been made, but it is i'm
possible to protect property under
such conditions.

der American control. The prophecy
of Senator Dolz that it's inhabitants
would retire as Cubans and awaken
Americans has come true. Marines
were landed to guard the treasury
and rural guards patrolled the
streets under orders of the American
commissioners. Every movement now
awaits the nod of approval of the
American War Secretary.
Havana Especially -Four hundred
and fifty marines were sent to Glen
fuegos Sunday night by rail as a
precaution, news having been re-
ceived by Governor Taft that fight
ing was liable to occur between the
insurgents and the rural guards and
militia. The marines will reinforce
those already there, who were landed
from the Marietta and Dixie. The
Ill feeling between the Cubans at
Cienfuegos is very strong. That Is
the city where the disturbances took
place last year.
Some excitement is reported at
Sancti Spiritus. An order has been
given to land 100 marines from the
Tacoma Monday at Tunas de Zaya,
the nearest port to Sancti Spiritus.
A thousand men will be landed at
Havana. They will camp at Camp
Columbia. The forces which are now
coming will be landed at different
places on the island.

The negotiations between the
Funston Commission and the COM

although he expects the necessity for
the delivery of arms, is tOuchy about
some of the details. He desires the
Americans to take some measures
against the Moderates, which would
be unwise in the circumstances.
There is no danger that General
Castillo will do anything to put OBJ
