THE SOLDIERS AT SAN FRANCISCO

Once more the American soldier
stands on the pinnacle Of military great
ness. Amid the elemental wreck Of
matter and crash Of gigantic forces;
amid the inconceivabie terror and over
~helming human misery Of San Fran
cisco, the American soldiers stood firm
and unmoved. Actively helpful wher-
ever help could avail; calm. collected
and resourceful amid things appalling
beyond human imagination; brave to
the last limit OF courage, but tender.
considerate and commiserate to the
multitude Of victims Of the disaster.
Peace hath her victories no less re-
nowned than war;" and though the
American soldier has done more fight
ing than any other in the world and
shown conspicuously upon q thousand
battlefelds. he never appeared to higher
advantage than he did amid the wreck
and ruin of San Francisco. From every
lip comes his praises. He was the main
reliance Of the people in fighting the
TO destruction miles Of costly buildings
to arrest the progress Of the flames; he
dealt swift, stern, deadly justice to the
ghouls who preyed upon the unfor-
funates: he marshaled the panic
stricken to places Of safety; he saw that
the women and children had the best
that could be given; he distributed
equally the food and water that could
be obtained: he gave up his own "a
tons and tents to the citizens, and his
uniform was IL hope and comfort

100 and $50 miles.
Among the memorable earthquakes
may be noted that Of Lisbon, Nov. l.
1856, which left the city a heap OF
ruins, destroyed $4,000 lives. and was
felt from the Madeiras to Britain; that
which destroyed Aleppo in 1922; that
at Mount Ararat in 1910; at Broussa,
Asia Minor, in 1855; at Quito, 1859;
Mendoza, South America, 1860; Ma
Mia, 1868: in Peru. 1868: Cuenta, in
Columbia, 1875; Manila, 1880; VAL
paraiso, 1880; Ischia, 1881 and 1888;
the earthquake phenomena accompany
ing the volcanic eruption OF Krakatao,
1888: Colchester and the eastern coun-
tries of England. 1884; Malaga, Grana-
da and southern Spain, 1884 and 1885;
Charleston, 1886.
The earthquake shocks on sea coasts
are almost invariably attended by
waves proportionate to the severity of
the shock. In deep water these are
very long but decided swells. In shoal
water they are much more marked in
height and force and break most dis
astrously upon the shores. In Peru,
Callao was destroyed in 1886 by an
earthquake followed by q sea wave 90
feet high. In 1858 the port OF africa,
in Peru. suffered similarly, and the sea
wave. after destroying africa, rushed
across the Pacific. It had struck africa
Aug. 13, reached the Hawaiian Islands,
Aug. IA, and Yokohama, Augs Is. IT
was also felt on the coasts Of Australia
and Alaska. The greater earthquakes
in Japan have been attended by sea
waves frequently 80 feet high and
which roll clear across the Pacific and
manifest themselves In California.

Among the questions at issue which

DETAILED YEARS AGO,
BOARD DOES NOTHING

Washington, d. c., March 31.-The
plan for establishing a system of
athletics on board ships appears to
have been abandoned. a board de-
tailed more than a year ago. COM
posed of three naval officers, includ-
ing of the medical corps, has been
unable to come to an agreement upon
a method of instruction A tentative
text book was provided, but nothing
has been promulgated to the service
and indeed, the board itself has
reached no final conclusions and sub
mitted no report to the navy depart
ment. This has excited considerable
comment in the service, for the rea-
son that the president took personal
interest in athletic work in the SER
vice, and special provisions were
made for the instruction of all cadets
at West Point and midshipmen at An
napolis The president found that.
while the soldiers had some training
in athletics, the sailors and marines
on board ship hsd no regular instruc-
tion in that class Of work. The naval
board was detailed to prepare a sys-
tenn of training. and it was expected
IT would be in operation by this time.
There is no sign, however, that the
board intended to get down to busi-
ness in the near future.

view of bringing indictments.
This action. however, will be de-
