second tidal wave, caused by re-

Jima, swept the coast OF the island OF
Kiushiu at Kumamoto to-day. taking
fresh toll OF death in the series Of

side of the Sakura- Jima volcano burst
early to-day. throwing molten lava
for many miles into the bay. The
mountain is now fiery furnace with
flames and smoke billowing for 5000
feet above the seething craters.

cap was accompanied by more severe
earthquake shocks than had previous
ly been felt in Satsuma province. The
waters of the bay became so turbu-
lent from the subterranean distur-
bance that the relief ships had to
withdraw from the vicinity of Sakura
Island.
Clouds of steam arose from the
water, where the molten lava rolled
into the bay.

Left Capital Vulnerable.

One hundred years ago the residents
OF Washington were seriously dis
sarbed by rumors that the British
were planning an expedition for the
capture of their city. Grave as was
the danger. the authorities were slow
to move. After considerable delay a
feet of gunboats and barges were as
sembled and placed under the COM
mand of the veteran Commodore Bar
ney, who had served with distinction
in the Revolution. But the land de-
lenses were almost totally neglected.
Though the government called for 15,-
600 troops. the actual defense force
about the national capital consisted OF
but few hundred militia In conse-
quence, when the British finally
marched on the city in midsummer
they encountered little opposition.

would get through on our right, SO he
had instructions to fire, but on no con-
sideration to hit the bear, but to scare
him back into the beat again.
"Stop" Makes Blunder.
Very soon the beat began, and
shouts of sWharlu" filed the air. 1t
was silence for a space, and then a
shot was fired on my right, following
the "woof-woof'' of bear as he dashed
down towards the heaters. The fool
of a stop" had fired at the animal and
hit him with the shotgun. There was
sure to be trouble, so got UP and ran
down through the jungle in the direc-
ton the bear had gone. But quick as
1 was, ! was too late. The wounded
bear had met a beater on his way
down and had mauled him badly, TAX
ing most of his face away and clawing
him severely about the body. The poor
fellow looked done for; there was no
time to stop, and l rushed on, to find
the bear mauling another man. On
seeing me he left the man and charged
full at me. / have never seen such a.
sight as he looked as he came toward
me, covered with blood, his eyes glar-
ing and red, and terrible wound in
his side. l let him get close up to
me, and then gave him the 577 be-
tween the eyes.
Over he went, and did not move
again. Then the head shikari, with
great presence of mind and pluck,
came from behind bush, stalked the
dead bear carefully, and at two yards
fired, but unfortunately missed, even
at that range. He would not believe
it was really dead, and kept saying.
'T1ulba dhar, sahib," and was not con.
vinced till l sat on its head. Just
then the rajah came putting through
the jungle, thinking l was still in my
place. yelling to me to bring him more
cartridges. The bear measured six
feet seven inches.
The next thing was to attend to the
unfortunate heaters. The worst case
we sent off at once to the hospital at
Srinagar, where the other followed
next day, after being doctored by US
in camp. ! am glad to say we heard
later that both poor fellows recoV-
cred.
Later we had many good bear hunts,
though without any particular Incl
dents, and managed to bag fair num-
Der of animals, D. accounting for a
creditable share. We also incidentally
managed to get a considerable amount
of other game, such as muskdeer,
scrow and pig. besides any amount Of
duck and snipe shooting. Our host
had been most kind and hospitable,
given us the time of our lives, and we
were most sorry to part company in
November, when we returned to Cal
