GROUNDLESS FEARS.

After the French revolution in 1880, Niebuhr haZarded the guess that all
 civilization was about to go down with
 a crash, that We were all about to
 share the fall of thir and fourth cen
 tury Rome-a respectable but painful
 ly overworked comparison. The fears
 once expressed by the followers of
 Malthus as to the future of the world
 have proved groundless as regards the
 civilized portion of the world: it is
 strange indeed to look back at Car
 lyle's prophecies of some seventy years
 ago, and then think of the teeming life of achievement the life of conquest
 Of every kind, and of noble effort crowned by success. which has been ours for the two generations since he complained to high Heaven that all the tales had been told and all the songs sung. and that all the deeds real ly worth doing. had been done. I be- lieve with all my heart that a great future remains for us; but whether it does or does not, our duty is not al
 tered However the battle may go, the soldier worthy of the name will with utmost vigor do his allotted task. and bear himself as valiantly in defeat as in victory. Come what will we belong to peoples who have not yielded to the craven fear of being great. In the ages that have gone by, the great nations, the nations that have expanded and that have played mighty part in the world, have in the end grown old and weakened and vanished but so have the nations whose only thought was to avoid all danger, all effort. who would risk nothing, and who therefore gained nothing. In the end the same fate i may overwhelm all alike: but the ! memory of one type perishes with it. | while the other leaves its mark deep |

FIFTY REPORTED KILLED
Government Moves Prompt ly to Relief of Stricken People - Heroic Queen, Whose Duties Are Not Confined to Festivities.

Rome, June 7.-Great apprehension has been caused again by seismic disturbances, showing that the zone affected by the earthquake shocks today is a vast one, embracing prac- tically the whole of Southern Italy as well as a portion of Tuscany and
 Venitia to the north.
 But the district where serious dam age occurred only extends about fifty miles around Mount Vulture which is an extinct volcano near the town of Calitri. in the province of Avellino.
 This region has suffered much in the past from earthquakes and in 1851 500 persons were killed. The number of casualties resulting today has not yet been ascertained. Some reports estimate the dead at fifty and the injured at several hundred.
 It is feared that many are buried in the ruins of the houses which were thrown down in Calitri, while great damage was done at other places. with unknown loss of life. The government has taken hold of the situation with promptitude and, all though the earthquake occurred dur HE lIit lllt I44llAelAE anu NAN A authorities soon were hard at work. Premier Luzzatti received word of the disaster at 3 o'clock ir the morn ing, less than two hours after the occurrence of the quake, and at once communicated the news to the king.
 The. king decided to leave immedi- ately for the district. He intended to go alone. but Queen Helena in sisted upon joining him. The king thought this was not necessary. as the situation at Avellino was not to be compared with that at Messina. where their majesties spent several days in relieving the distress of the people In reply to the kings pro- tests. the queen retOrted; As my presence is necessary at all festivi- ties. it must not lack where the people die and weep In the South Italians suffered: therefore I must go. It is my place as a woman and a mother
 The king and queen were cheered bv crowds at the station as they hur ried to the train and carefully in- spected the medical and other sup plies.
 Misfortune seems to have chosen Italy as a target While the south has been afflicted by an earthquake. the vast region of Sardinia, the lars est island in the Mediterranean after Sicily. was ravaged today by cy- clone The districts of Lanusei, Tor toH. Hohono. Elini and Jerzu have been devastated and the crops. vine yards and cattle destroyed. The dam age at Sardinia is estimated at over $2 .O00, 900.
