South Chile is in the throes of
volcanic horror nearly as terrifying
as the earthquake disaster last year.
The volcano in Valdina province is
in violent eruption and hundreds
of persons are fleeing for their lives.

This means that the average price to the

but to urn to another phase OF
modern conditions. You in your
materlalistic progress have given the
Orient implements Of destruction,
while through all the ages we gave
you naught but peace. These weap-
ons of warfare the Oriental, imper-
sonated by the Japanese, turned upon
the Russian, and the result was a war
the like of which is unknown in his
tory-not a single reverse for the men
of Nippon. Those same Japanese, with
reawakened China even greater than
,Japan, and India at the, back of both,
are going to show the world a conflict
that will make all others pale in COM
parison.
America wants to exploit the whole
world, but would shut out foreigners
from her borders. Is it not likely mat
foreign nations will r~etaliate? And
then what answer can America make?
"The Mikado is one of the greatest
rulers any nation has produced in
modern times. When, ten years be
fore the war with Russia, Japan was
deprived of the fruits Of her victory
over China by the European powers
the Mikado said nothing, but complied
with apparently good grace. Then he
! quietly prepared to punish Russia as
the most hated of those powers.

DOGS RMS Mean RooseveIt?

Tax Commission Hugh Hastings of
st. Louis while in London recently
perpetrated a covert attack on Presi-
dent Roosevelt, which has been fully
justified by the presidents speech at
st. Louis on Oct, 1. Mr.. Hastings
said: We must not lose sight Of the
fact that there are political plutocrats
in America, as well as those Of the
financial variety. They constitute q
greater menace to American institu
lions than the trust magnates.
1T strikes me that the political plu
tocrats at Washington are crying

while they steadily arrogate to them
selves all the country's political pow
ers and patronage"

Here is a Truly Remarkable Lapse Of
Memory.

Poor memory for anne Is a com
mon defect, and probably most per-
sons have been embarrassed by it oc-
,c~asionally. Certainly many a person
has owned up to a queer sort Of abb
sent-mindedness which. for instance,
would cause him suddenly to forget
the name of a friend upon whom he
had gone to call. After the doorbell
had been rung the unfortunate caller
would discover that he did not know
who to ask for when the servant
should appear. But such performances
as this have been completely cast in
the shade by an exhibition Of memory
saiure given by q Mrs. 3, who lives

BABA BRARAU

Hindu faith, wound around his turban,
long raven black curls dropping down
about. his shoulders, with all eye as
clear as Rhenish wine and a face of
peculiarly benign mien, yet strongly
chiseled, combining as it does a GER
tain acquired western vigor with the
placidity and calmness Of the Orient
Bahia Bharati is a striking figure. He
has studied the Occident and its ways
and declares that the aggression, the
tremendous conceit and the blindness
of the white race are going to bring
about the uprising of all Asia-that
| Asia will be free at last from DONNA
ton and oppression by foreign hands
and that a new Monroe doctrine will
be called into being and the Orient
will be for the Orientals alone.
The western coast just now is
is called. Hundreds, even thousands,
of Hindus are coming across the Pa
cifc, and the western states and west
ern Canada fear a very deluge. So
great has been the feeling in some
places that the white laborers have
driven the dusky invaders out, as the
Chinese were sent forth from certain
western cities in early days. But
Bahia Bharati declares there is no such
thing as the Hindu Peril" 1t is
rather the Japanese PERIL on this
side of the Pacific, or the white
Peril on the other side of the ocean.
1.-THE Hindus that come to the
American shore are really not Hindus
in the common. acceptance Of the
term; rather they are half Hindus,
sikhs from Upper India, with a differ
ent religion and different IDEAS" said
Bahia Bharati in an interview | had
with him at the Hotel Stander just be-
fore the Minnesota sailed. He contin-
ued: There is no cause to fear an
invasion, for only a few of the sikhs
will come. And they are not an ag-
gressive people. If they find they are
not wanted they will not cross the Pa
} cific. There is no cause to fear"
The Hindu philosopher and sage
talked for an hour or more on this
r western world we know, his eastern
world, religion, literature, modern
conditions, his own life and expert
ences, his hopes, ambitions, and made
: predictions. of such amazing nature
: regarding the future readjustment Of
