one part OF the Pacific then IN another.
One of the greatest regions of vol
canic disturbance has been in and near
the island of Java. in the southwestern
corner of the Pacific, where thar body
of water meets the Indian ocean.
Volcanic-made in the first place, and
constantly being remade by them, Java
has more volcanoes than any area of
its size in the world. Estimates of
the active and extinct craters range
from 100 to $50. Everywhere in Java,
in the huge crater lakes, in assures
that now are river beds, even in an
Gent temples, half finished when in
terrupted by some fiery CONFUSION, are
evidences of cataclysmic forces-such
turbulent forces as now are in con-
tinuous hysteria in the Valley of the
Ten Thousand Smokes in Alaska, and
break their crusted surface cage in
ternittently in Java.
The ''treacherous Klot," as the ma
tiyes call it, all but wiped out the
town of Britar, but even its deyasta-
ton, as reported to the state depart
ment, was mild compared to the vio-
lent upheaval of Krakatoa in 1888.
Then mother nature turned anarchist
and planted a gargantuan internal ma
chine on the doorstep OF Java.
Krakatoa is a little island in the
Sunda strait, between Sumatra and
Java. Australians, as far from the
explosion as New York is from Ell
Paso, heard the terrific defamation ;
more than half the island was blotted
out, parts of it were flung aloft four
times as high as the worlds highest
mountain, and to touch bottom below
the waters surface where most of the
island had been, henceforth required
a plumb line twice as long as tie
height of the Washington monument.
SkyScraper waves flooded adjacent is
lands and rolled halfway around the
earth. Every human eardrum heard,
though it may not have registered, the
air waves as they vibrated three or
four times around the earth.
Krakatoa levied a smaller toll in
human life than Klot, because of it's
isolation, and many of the $4,000
deaths from Krakatoas eruption were
at far-distant points by drowning.
An eruption anywhere on the island
means disaster, for Java, about equal
in era to New York state, supports a
population greater than the combined
populations of the Empire state and
the four other most populous states
in the Union-Pennsylvan illinois,
Ohio and Texas.
In the native folklore are innumer-
able stories of the earth opening up
to swallow a dancing girl. Such tales
sbetoken another physical feature OF
the island fraught with human trag-
edy Not only has it steaming vents,
spouting geysers, sulphur lakes, but
great chasms open and close, and they
have been known to swallow villages.

TEMPLE STONES THAT
MAY BECOME HEARTH
STONES -

Cable reports recently stated that
Marlborough Rocks, one of the best
known of the so-called Druid Circles"
of England, would be broken up and
used by company for building homes.
The reports bring to mind what
might be termed the fight for sur
vival' of the monuments and works OF
art of past ages against the activities
of later generations.
During the dark ages priceless mar
bic statues by PraXiteles and ether
Greek masters of sculpture were
burned to make lime. In northern
Africa and Asia Minor, in numerous
places where classical ruins are found,
beautifully chiseled stOnes-physical
symbols of "the glory that was Greece
and the grandeur that was Rome
have been built into the uncOuth huts
of the natives The smaller stones
from Druid Circles" aad avenues,
lying on the surface of the ground,
ready quarried, have long fallen prey
TO nearby peasants in all the coun-
tries in which they occur. Even the
Stonehenge, on Salisbury Plain, Eng
land, famous as the greatest of the
supposed Druid temples and one of
the most striking of the uninscribed
monuments of the world, has not en-
tirely escaped the hand of the vandai.
The larger mon0liths are too massive
for easy removal, but some of the
smaller stones have disappeared and
are reported to have been built into
bridges and mill dams of the adjacent
countryside.
Relatively small stone circles and
parallel rows of monoliths known as
"avennes," are numerous in England,
Wales. Scotland and Ireland. They
also are found in numbers in western
Europe. especially in France, and to
a lesser degree in northern Africa, and
in southern Asia as far east as India.
Among them, however, the compare
lively few great groups stand out
prominently. Stonehenge differs from
most of the other circles in the great
size of the upright stones, and in the
fact that massive lintels are placed
from upright to upright, forming tril-
ithons. The placing of the concentric
circles and outlying marker stones of
Stonehenge in such way that its
axis PORTS practically to the rising
sun on the longest day of the year
the summer Solstice-has led TO gem
eraI acceptance of the theory that
this was temple for sun worship.
Because of an astronomical change
which slowly shifts the apparent point
OF sunrise at successive summer sol
stices. ii has been possible TO compute
the date of the building of Stonehenge
rs approximately 1850 B. C. 1t is be-
lieyed that the smaller circles and the
avenues and other monuments of great
stones belong 10 approximately the
same period. which is the late Neolith-
lie age. While the larger circles like
the Stonehenge and Marlborough Rocks
doubtless are temples for sun worship
and human sacrifice, it IS believed that
the smaller groups of stones mark bu-
rial places.

THE LONG, LONG TRAIL OF
THE GYPSY

Now that the weather is becoming
mild again, some fine day you Will
discover a camp of gypsies near your
doorstep. and wonder where in the
world they came from The world has
been wondering for many a century
whence the original gypsies came.
George Borrow relates that the first
gypsies made their appearance in Mol
davia in 1417, and no one seems to be
very certain in regard to their place
of origin. The original 5000 increased
to formidable proportions in century
or two, and Maria Theresa and Joseph
III tried to civilize them, with no sue
cess.
In the early days each little band
had a captain whom they hOnored with
the title of count. To secure the COW
eted position this leader had to be
valiant and courageous in the pillag-
ing expeditions for food and sagacious
and crafty enough to settle their Gis-
putes. For this he was allowed a third
of anything that the band stole.
Despite their marauding tendencies,
and their more or less contemptuous
attitude toward people not ''of the
blood" they have a code of morals
which contains many excellent require
mentS. A true gypsy must not have
quarrelsOme disposition, and he never
reveals the secrets of the brotherhood
Though they make the rest of mankind
A., 4 n 10 nf
great sacrifices for each other. They
pledge themselves never to marry out
of their own sect, nor will they teach
their language to anyone not a gypsy
by blood or adoption.
Their daredevil spirit perhaps has
had a passing influence on most of the
countries in which these wanderers
have lived At least England is ac-
credited with having contracted her
love of horse racing from them, and
they are nearly always to be found
among her jockeys and in attendance
upon her DerbyS.
Pretending knowledge of the meta
physical and dabbling in fortune telling
have always been within the province
of the gypsy women. They have
claimed that they could witch away
troublesome ailments of the heart and
have compounded queer love philters
which instead of imbuing the unfortun-
ate taker with a steadiness of aim with
his love, arrows, have poisoned his di-
gestive tract.
But they realize the monetary value
of the myth concerning their ability
to.divine the future, and have since the
beginning of their history capitalized
it. In Spain where large proportion
of the race now lives, travellers say
that they find neatly whitewashed
caves lighted by electricity, and that
even gypsy royalty will caper and ca
reer around in fantastic dances for
the coins of a casual visitor.

The railway workers of the United
States had their innings before the
railway labor board last week. B. M.
Jewell was their first witness In their
effort to retain the present wage
scales. He presented mass of evil
dence to support the unions two prin-
cipal points-that living costs have
outrun pay rates and that wages in
the only other basic industries COM
parable to railroading, coal mining
and steel making, have not been re-
duced
His argument also was framed to
show that the railroads have not OPP
Grated with economy and efficiency, as
required by the transportation act,
and that the same financial interests
which control the railroads also con-
troll the production of fuel, timber,
equipment, oil and other supplies and
that they have determined upon a
policy of decreasing railroad expenses
by reducing wages and at the same
time charging unwarranted and un-
reasonable prices for supplies which
the railroads must purchase"

The week closed with much brighter
prospects for a settlement Of the strike
of British coal miners. Sir Robert
Horne, acting for the government, held
series of meetings with the miners
delegates and made new offers which
included the suggestion of wage re-
duction of 3 shillings per shift. The
miners are willing to accept reduc-
ton of 2 shillings, and it may be the

meet the difference This would amount
to $5O0,OOO monthly while the industry

the delegates would recommend that

does not apply to fuel for domestic
