with Margery's

of shrill laughter

women! I'd rather risk spoit gypsy like the

"she were not for me, and the day may come,

At the sound of her voice Boniface went white

as the members of the international
pathological Congress, standing at the foot of
the towering cliffs near Marlborough Head
watched William Wilkinson, prince of climbers,
as he danged at the end of a dizzily swaying
rope 100 feet and more above their heads in
search of the eggs of guillemot and kittiwake.
And, indeed the spectacle of one of these
reckless egg hunters, suspended at giddy height
from frail rope and swaying pendulum like
against the swart face OF cliff more than 100
yards high over the hungry teeth of the rocks
that fringe the cliffs base, is sufficient to turn
a strong head and send shiver of apprehension
through the least emotional of onlookers. But
to the climber himself it is his days work, which
inspires no more fear in him than if he were
driving pillow or rakng hay. Generation after
generation his forefathers have reaped the harvest
of birds eggs-t runs in the blood" and
he laughs at the very suggestion of danger IN

EARTHQUAKE IN CHILB
Story of San Francisco Repeat.

Two or Three Thousand Lives Lost
and Fifty Million Dollars
Loss Of Property.

On Thursday evening. August 16. Val.
paralso, Chile, was visited by an earth
quake shock OF great severity, and the
destruction which so recently over
whelmed San Francisco was repeated in
the Chilean city. As in the case of San
francisco, fires broke out immediately
after the shock and most of the build
lngs In the city were either burned or
damaged. Fifty million dollars il esti
mated as the property loss, and the
number OF lives lost is thought to be be-
tween 2O0O and 1000. Many villages in
the vicinity Of Valparaiso were entirely
destroyed, and the devastation is wide.

The first severe shock was followed
during the night by 81 lighter ones. add

colo and windy, the condition of the citi-
zens was pitiable. The whole population

railroads were all destroyed and there
was no way Of leaving the stricken CITY
by land.
Santiago de Chile was also a heavy
sufferer from the di9aster, the property
loss there reaching $6.000.00O. Fifty
hve persons are reported killed in that
place and hundreds were wounded. All

one report saying that 100 men have
suffered death in this way.
The OppOrtune arrival Of the Chilean
fleet, which steamed into Valparaiso har
Dor to be there to welcome Secretary Of
State Root, helped to save the situation
following the earthquake. As in San
Francisco, the sailors from warships
were landed and took charge of the city
pending the arrival of the government
troops.
They patrOlled the water front and
guarded the wrecked banks and other
buildings containing valuables, with or.
ders to shoot thieves and marauders on
sight. A strange fact in connection with
the earthquake is that the Valparaiso
daily papers published prognoetica
tlOn OF the catastrophe several hours in
advance Of the first shock.

tricts to share in the state funds. Here

rules have permitted it, to call the roll
and Immediately dismiss the school on
semiholidays or similar occasions. and
then certify the attendance of all who
had answered to the roll call Members
OF the board declare they know of in.
stances where teachers have observed
local holidays frequently in this manner
there being no serious effort to do any
school work on such occasions.
The new rule promulgated will make it
necessary for pupil to be in school at
least one hour to entitle the district to
half days attendance for that pupil.
There is to be no further excusing OF
pupils after few minutes attendance.
and without having participated in reci-
tatiOns, az has been the case in the past.
The board declares that when the board
