Cause Of Volcanic Explosions.

Volcanic explosions are commonly
regarded as the release of stores OF
energy kept confined by external
pressure, and boiled explosions and
geyser eruptions are typical of this
class of outbreaks. An expert Of the
United States geophysical laboratory
finds that another class of explosions,
that of explosive mixtures like gun
powder, are not likely to occur in
volcanoes. But a third class, that of
explosive compounds brought into con-
tact with oxygen or water, Is more
probably the usual source of volcanic
explosions, and is illustrated by alumni

defamation causes violent explosion.

Plant Societies.

1t appears that the knowledge OF
botany has been greatly advanced by
the development of what may be
called the sociology of plants, that IS,
the study Of their relations to one an
other, as well as their adjustments to
surroundings. Botanists recognize that
plants are not scattered haphazard
over the globe, but are organized into
definite communities. A pond has its
plant society, all the members OF
which fall into their proper places.
A swamp-forest consists of trees pos
sessing certain social relationship,
and differing from those that form a
forest on dry land. There Is progress
sion from one social organization OF
plants to another. A lily-pond may
give place to swamp-moor, this to
society of swamp shrubs, and this,
again, to a swamp-forest Of tamarack,
pine and hemlock. So societies Of
plants on dry lands succeed one an
other as the conditions change.

The Indians, "Pipe Of Peace"

The calumet, the 'pipe of peace"
of the American Indians, was used on
all ceremonial occasions, but especial
ly when treaties of peace were being
ratified. Each warrior took solemn
puff from the pipe as 1t was passed
around the circle. Native tobacco,
with which willow bark or sumac
leaves were mixed, was smoked. The
bowl of the pipe was made Of white
stone in the East and Southeast. In
the West 1t was made of a red clay
obtained from the famous pipestOne
quarry of Minnesota, mentioned in
Longfellow's 'Hiawatha." The pipe
had very long stem, made some
times of wood, sometimes of reed.
Feathers, porcupine quilts and wom-
ems hair were used as decorations on
the stem. The name 'calumet' orig
mated with the French Canadians.

BALL SEASON
ENDED TUESDAY
BROOKLYN TEAM is HEAVY
LOSS TO LOCAL b. B.
ASSOCIATION

One of the most successful baseball
seasons in the history of the national
sport in Wausau closed Tuesday when
the Brooklyn National team defeated
the Lumberjacks, 6 to /. The day
was cold and wet and was anything
but a baseball day. The attendance
was less than 300 and as result the
local club was compelled to she'll out
about $500 of it's hard earned funds to
the Brooklyn transformers.
Sunday afternoon the Milwaukee
brewers defeated the locals to 0 in
an excellent exhibition OF baseball in
which both teams played WELL The
Brewers proved themselves good en-
tertainers as well as good ball play
ers AMI they were loudly applauded by
the 1925 people who paid to see the
game.
The local association quit the sea-
son with about $640 in the treasury, ac-
cording to Treasurer Paul F. Peters.
1t started the season with about $43O
which was turned over to the club
from the year previous when $3.50 was
raised as a guarantee fund by sub
scription The club this year also
received about $500 revenue from the
fence signs, and sold about $l55O IN
stock which also admitted the pur-
chaser 10 the opening game.
Resides the $3.50 or whereabouts re-
naming in the treasury, the club owns
equipment valued at about $500, which
would make the total assets of the
club now about $1,000. Much credit
is due the directors for their conduct
of the affairs of the club this year.
They donated their time and were
compelled to stand much criticism
sometimes on the remotest rumor or
hearsay among the fans. A meeting
of the stockholders will be held short

If streets were dirty, taxes high,
Or schools too crowded, Say would

Would set to work to make things new,

labor ON the plantations, there is with
both a pronounced tendency to seek

promise of a freer and more ample
life.
"The Japanese are ambitious to be-
come tenants, to own land, to set up
business, to enter a profession, to rise
above the category of unskilIed labor
and as they individually achieve their
ambition they are, like the Portuguese,
participating more and more in the
affairs of the islands, socially, educa-
tionally, politically. Furthermore. they
are all at work. There are few tri-
fiers and idlers among them. There are
now, approximately, $4,000 male and
1000 female adult Japanese in the

nations obtained from the Japanese
consulate general, shows that 50,149
of them are employed in gainful oc-

levied on.
To gain control Of the Crescent Iron
Works, the International Association
paid obligations of the company said
TO total more than $4,000, and to
have advanced other sums to finance
operation of the plant during the
strike. To secure this loan the deed
of trust for $4,000 was taken.
The plant continued to operate as
strictly union shop. while in its
competitors the open shop was estab-
lished. Business was slack for all
concerns and none have operated at
capacity in recent months.
As a result of the Norfolk idea the
International Association of Machin-
lists has expended $4,000 and has the
property purchased Saturday. To use
the machinery the labor men must
move 1t TO another site and start a
new company.
The entire proposition has been
handled by international officers from
their hea dquarters in Washington.
