From July 13 to 24, 1880, occured a notaableeries of earth= quakes, in which not a “single public edifice was spared, even the &aticient Con- rent of Guadaloupe which had stood for three ceuturies, being demolished. The in- habitants fled to thefields outside the city, buteven with this precaution 320 lives were lost. The shocks, some of them lasting more than than a minute, were felt all over the island of Luzon and continued intermittently uatil the middle of September. The destruction of property inthe city Manila reached an aggregate of $6.000,000. Atthe time of these disturbances a]! the volcanoes in the island started into unusual activity. On Nov 22 of the following year the Mayon volcano was again the scene of a great eruption. Another eruption occurred in July 1888, which was undoubedly con- nected with the terrible eruption of the volcano Bandaisan, in Japan, on the 15th same month, That yoleano had been in- active for a thousand years and had long been regarded as extinct, but it suddenly burst into activity, and overwhelmed a region extending to a distance of five miles all around the mountain with vol- canic mud, scorize, rocks and hot water, while the joss of life reaches 476 persone, and 241 others were injured. The erupt- ion of Mayon at that time destroyed over a bundred lives. In July, 1892 there was a nother series of violent eruptions of the Luzon volcanoes, the fire from which caused widespread devastation. The last notable eruption of Mayon occurred in October, 1893, when several gillaesv were ruined and ma@y lives lost. 'so Ge mBmen ‘lands has NEWS NOTES, Princess Louise of England nas a new fad.

The Location of the Wound Makes Them Take Different Attitudes, “‘T had the good fortune or the bad, just as you choose to view it, to visit a battle- field in Cuba the day after a fight, and I observed some curious things about the effects of death wounds on men which I have never seen mentioned in the books,’’ said J. 5. MeSorley of New Orleans. “It was in Pinar del Rio province, and the insurgents had put to flight a large body of Weyler’s troops after a short but sanguinary conflict. Seventeen boyish looking soldiers were scattered over the blood sonked ground. None of them had been macheted. The bullets of the patriots had Jaid them low. Some of them were shot almost to pieces, though a few had only one or two wounds, ‘Those who were shot through the heart had doubled up like jackknives, those who died from intestinal wounds were stretched out in « natural position on their backs and the poor fellows who received bullets in their foreheads were lying on their backs with the right arm extended above the head and the left arm resting naturally by the side asin sleep. There were five who had died from this wound, and every one of them was in the same position. The uniforinity of their positions was so marked that I called the attention of a surgeon to it who had accompanied me to the field. He said that he had observed the peculiar- ity frequently before on other fields, but was unable to account for it. I have asked old soldiers in this country if they had ever noticed similar positions assumed by comrades killed in battle by a shot in the forehead, and the invariable answer was that they had. It would seem that if the shock of the bullet would send the right arm above the head, asI have described, the left arm would also be extended in the saibe way, but in all such cases the left arm is stretched at full length by the side, with the fingers of that hand open and the fingers of the right hand closed, as if clutch- ing desperately at something, ''—S¢. Louis Republic, Can Men Dress Babies? ‘‘Elijah, dear, will you dress Willie this morning? I’m in such a hurry, and it will only take you a minute or two,’’ “*Certainly,’’ replied Mr. Bixby cheer- fully. ‘‘I'd just as soon dress the little chap as not. Here, my little man, come and let papa dress you. I'll have you as neat as possible in a few minutes.”’ Willie, aged 4, comes reluctantly from his playthings and Bixby begins: ‘*Now, let's off with your nighty gown, and—keep still, dear, I can’t unbutton it.
