night in the yea 1905 there arose
from the midst of a peaceful cocoa
plantation a volcano that in the four
years of its still ceaseless activity has
sent forth more molten lava than has
any volcano of which there is human
record. Today his flow of lava. in
some places seven hundred feet in

frontage of more than seven miles, has
destroyed about fifty villages and as
many squar miles of what was ono

PREACHING RULES

AUGUsTINE's sermons last,

CI. AUGUSTINE'S sermons lasted
about eighteen minutes, but In
that ancient day It was no un-
common thing to have several at the
same service. When two or more bish-
ops were present it WAS usual for them
and the p~resbyters to preach, one after
the other, reserving the last place for
the highest dignitary. Some consola-
tion, however, was to be found in the
fact that applause was permitted, and
many of ST. C~hrysostom's sermons were
nailed with the tossing of garments
and waving of handkerchief

Born, 100.

One more unfortunate,
Weary of breath,
Rashly importunate.
Gone to her death!
Touch her not scornfully!
Think of her mournfully,
Gently and humanity
Not of the stains of her;
All that remains of her
Now is pure womanly.
Make no deep scrutiny
Into her mutiny
Rash and undutiful,
Past all dishonor
Death has left on her
Only the beautiful.

MANILA, July Elm a desperate fight
near Patian on Jolo Island yesterday,

killed, and his entire band exterminated
by d~etachments OF regulars and constabu-
larry under Captain George l.. Byram of
the Sixth United States cavalry. operating
in conjunction with a naval flotilla of the

are l.. T. Kennedy. T. L. Miller and Arthur

Captain Byram's cavalry, with a few

Of sailors under Lieutenant Commander

in the mountains not far from the coast
The Moros fled and took refuge In a larg'
ave. The column of troops and sailors

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Games and Athletic Contests at the
Country Club.
SAFE AND NOISY FOURTH
Fire In stock of Fireworks is Only
Accident Reported Daring the Day
None Injured and Few
Arrests Made.

South Omaha, in common with the rest
Of the middle west, celebrated its Fourth
OF July between showers, making the best
Of the fickl weather. Most attempts ct
picnicking were given up entirely, and the
few who ventured out found the damp
woods uninviting and the frequent show
ers a encouragement.
The firing Of noise-producing devices
through the day was continuous and deaf
ening. This was especially true at Twenty
fourth and N streets, where the car tracks
were lined with large torpedoes and every
boy on the street had a cane or a revolver.
The South Omaha Country club had as
much of its celebration as possible. The
golf play was conducted according to
schedule. The golfers played eighteen
holes to qualify for the championship
tournament. The base ball team defeated
the Mazeppas, 5 to 2. on a heavy field. The
races were conducted az the club grounds
and included a tug Of war and chasing a
creased pig. The ennis courts were too
heavy to play off the tournament and II
will be completed Saturday and Sunday, If
possible. Over 20 dinners were served A
dance concluded the celebration.
Scores in Golf Game.
The greatest interest was in the qualify
ing rounds of the golf teams. The field
was too heavy for good scoring. Many OF
the best players fell down seriously in the
work on the fair greens. The green's were
in condition after being once APP
preached. The golf committee decided that
the last years champion should enter the
qualifying round on the same basis as any
other contestant and play through the reg
ulsr schedule of the tournament. This was
Floyd Sherwood. He consented to this
ruling and made the low score Of 50 for the
qualifying round. Joe Weppner made SO
and ]. J. Fitzgerald n. r. D. Laverty and
c. j. Francisco tied at 1O6. ". II. Cheek,
E.. A. Rose, T. j. O'Neil and Charles Cox
tied at 112. These will constitute the first
flight in the championship round for the
directors cup. The eight following these
will play in the second flight for the pres
ident's trophy.

When the audience had been thus dis
missed. the constable and his protege pro-
ceeded to run the show as they pleased.
Wells and Rosewater, who are the attor-
neys for Hamon Krupp, owner Of the
theater, tried to get Simpson to accept a
bond for the satisfaction of his writ of at
tachment, so they could get back the show
for the glorious fifth, but Simpson made his
declaration and refused.
Judge Kennedy was prevailed upon,
although he was not supposed to be on
the bench, to issue a mandamus against the
constable. This too, was disregarded by
Simpson. Finally proceedings for contempt
were brought and Simpson was hailed be-
fore the Judge by the sheriff.

Miss Anthony was fearful because the

to take care OF her. The fact that her
bridegroom was thirty-six years older on
