A GATHERING OF DEMOCRATS

In Baltimore, Nd, on Tuesday, Jan
uary II, there was a gathering of Dem
ocrats of prominence from all sections
of the United States, who were invited
to take part in the Jackson Day celebra-
ton, as well as the successes scored by
Democrats in the last November cleo
lions. AT the dining speeches were
heard, one being by Champ Clark and
one by Senator Bailey. From Clark
came the enunciation of Democratic
principles, in consonanee with the occa-
sion. and from Bailey there was the op-
posite view, disguised as Democracy.
At this time the. greatest responsible
lily is resting on the Democrats. The
people have tired of being misled, but
if they can obtain no relief from the
Democracy there will follow silent
revolution, when Democracy will be
doomed forever There is little encour-
agement for success when Bailey repre-
sents the system instead of the people.

SEVENTEEN YEAR LOCUSTS
COMING

s New York, Jan. I6.-This is the veal
for the Iz-year locusts to appear. They
are due along the Atlantic seaboard
from Virginia to New York, but Dr.
Raymond L. Ditnar, curator of the
Bronx Zoo, said today that he believed
the Hudson river would check the pest
Il do not believe the swarrls this year
will cross the Hudson" said Mr., Dit
mars today. THE locusts will probably
migrate as far as Nyack while the m
terror of New Jersey will be the heayl-
est sufferer in this vicinity. I don't think
the damage will be Of any great mo,
ment.

Old Wreck.

From the London Chronicle
In the North sea, between the islands
of Vlieland and Terschelling. an expedi-
ton organized by the National Salvage
Association Is now at work with view
to the recovery Of treasure which was
lost with the English fr!gate Lutine in
1899. while on passage from London to
Hamburg.
The Lutine set sell from the Thames
in October of that year with an enor-
nous amount of gold for the English gar
rison on the Dutch island Texel and
gold and silver bars for Hamburg bank
ing houses. valued in all at G1.207. 900.
but she was wrecked during a violent
storm and only one OF the crew was
saved.
Repeated attempts have been made to
find the precious metal. notably In 1S0O-O1
and in 1S50-61. and It 10 estimated that q
little over 100000 worth has already
been recovered.
Early this year the steam dredger

RARE CHANCE OFFERED

international Competition In
voIved in Making New
Capital for Australia.

Not since Washington and LEnfant
conferred together over the embryo city
on the Potomac has there been such an
opportunity for the exercise of the art of
city planning as now offered at the site
fixed upon for the new federal capital
of Australia. states the Engineering
News.
The three ideals always desired but
rarely enjoyed in such work are there;
virgin country. ample funds and SYM
pathetic supervision. These conditions
are so different from those imposed in
the reconstruction or the renovation of
an old city that there may reasonably
be expected a workable as well as an ar
tistic solution, a combination seldom
achieved by city planners. The recenl
trend Of large city replanning, as illus
trated by some of its most prominent
opponents, seems to us to have departed
SO far from the practical as to remove
their schemes from the fields of possible
construction into the realms of decora-
tive art. Illustrations have been seen
that merit place on the walls Of any
art gallery, but which are no more likely
to be carried out in actual construction
than are the biblical plans of Solomon's
temple.

that those architects and engineers who.

attached to the design of that capital
will not impose on the freedom allowed
them, but will forget some of their art
school ideas and realize that though
practical considerations may be sordid
and unworthy of an artist, they ought
not to be ignored in planning home

Destruction Caused by Erup-

Special Cablegram to The Star.
CATANIA, October 1.-THE toll of death
and destruction caused by the eruption
Of Etna is daily reaching higher figures.
It is thought the final counting will COM
pare with those of any past disaster due
to the volcanoes activity. The devastation
extends over an area of 400 square miles,
which the mountain covers.
The eruption began with series OF ter
rife explosions, during which giant
tongues of white flame leaped to the
sky. Since then as many as sixteen new
craters have burst forth within radius
of seven miles from the central crater
at height of 5000 feet. all OF them
belching dense smoke, showers or stones
and ashes and rivers of white-hot lava,
which advanced at the rate Of one mile
per hour toward Linguaglossa and cas-
tiglione. They destroyed the superb pine
foi ests and all the fields and vineyards in
their track.
Solid Wall of Fire.
The main lava stream, consisting of a
solid advancing wall Of fire full three
quarters of a mile wide, has already
buried the village of Sollichiata

sanity over Catania and the whole region.
accompanied by frequent alarming shocks
of earthquake, stronger than any felt In
Italy since the great upheaval at Messina.
These earthquakes have set the church
bells ringing and repeatedly flung the
seismic pens from the Bertelli instru-
ments at the Mount Etna observatory.
Distressing scenes occurred at Gravina.
Giarre and Linguaglossa when, on ac-
count of six succeeding shocks, the sick
inmates of the local hospitals and con-
vents were carried outside and laid IN
rows on the slopes of the mountain.
The temperature around Etna has risen
to a remarkable degree, so as to make
