Tbe lecturer who bad talked of tbe necessity of a "silent hour" for each person who wished to preserve calm ness and Individuality was spending tbe night with the Norton family. After breakfast the next morning be waited until the children bad gone to school, the bead of tbe bouse bad de parted for bla office and the mistress of tbe household bad attended to vari ous domestic affairs. He waited deter minedly, for lie bad seen the tired face of bis hostess the night before, and again at tbe breakfast table, and felt that be bad a duty to perform. When she at last entered the library at 10 o'clock, be was ready with bis words of advice, to which she listened wltb a smile. "You need that hour of which I spoke more than any one else, I am sure," he said, Impressively, at tbe end of half an hour's talk, to which she bad listen ed wltb an occasional sigh and her gen tle smile. "I can see bow many and vexing are your cares, and bow much you would gain by that quiet hour. If I were to be here long I should per; suade you to. take It, I'm sure. As it la, I boie you'll remember wbut I've said. And now I shall Just have time to catch the train. Good-by, my dear madam!" "Good-by!" said his hostess, smil ing. On the wajrto the stutlon the lectur er met the president of the club for 'which be had spoken the night before. "I've been talking to Mr Norton for nearly an hour," lie said, hastily, ai they shook bonds. "She needs a daily time of rest, I'm convinced. I've watched her since I arrived there early yesterday afternoon. I'm Interested In my subject, you see." "But she's a great believer In It," snld the president of the club, hurry ing on beside hlin In her eugerness to prove her statement. "She always takes the hour from 10 to 11 every morning to sit jM-rfectly quiet alone In tbe library, after all her day Is planned and before she needs to go to the Old Ladles' Home, or anywhere. Good-by! I'm so glad to have seen you again 1" "Good-by!" said the apostle of si lence, with whut the president of the club afterward called a "curious look" on his face. What Lava Is Used For. Tourists In Ituly are astonished a. tha practical use made of tbe lava that has flowed from Vesuvius In past and recent eruptions; for all Naples and Its vicinity appears to be a world of lava. Tbe streeta are puved with It; there are staircasea and statues, drinking troughs, brlc-a-bruc, and even Jewelry of this strange umterial which once bubbled from the yellow and drlnnluu lips of the jfreat crater above. The careless guides niuke money out of It by pressing coins or other objects on partially cooled friiKiuents and selling these to visitors.

Ban Francisco correspondence : With a consciousness of a duty well performed In rehabilitating her de stroyed conxnercliil section San Fran cisco has celebrated the first anniver sary of her cataclysm. One year ago saw the most awful experience that ever befell an Auierlcnti city, when earthquake and fire wrought their hor rible ruin. To-day public utilities are again In operation adequate to the needs of the city; nearly two-thirds of the area of four square miles which at sun set April 20, 10O0, was a scene of blackened brick heaps and twisted met al framework has been rebuilt and new structures sre still going up at n rapid rate. Hence It was appropriate that the principal commercial body of the city should assemble nt the banquet table at the Falrmouut Hotel tbe other evening, with governors and mayors of other States and cities as their guests, and celebrate the recovery with Joyous speech and song. How different the scene from the windows of the Fairmount Hotel ubout one year ago aud now. Two thousand six hundred acres of buildings, a large part in the very heart of tbe busluess section, bad been swept away. Five hundred and four teen city blocks bad become a mass of smoking ruins. Nothing was left of the wholesale and retail districts ex cept that here and there big ateel frame buildings stood, scorched but firm, among the piles of bricks. Nesr ly 00 miles of streets were Impassable, blocked by fallen walls, twisted wires and Iron trolley poles. Pavements and sidewalks were ruined by the Intense heat. Two hundred thousand people were homeless. Food supplies were done, clothing, was gone. beddUig . was gone. For nearly half tbe jwople nothing was left but bare bands and tout hearts. The property loss amounted to a thousand million Men 4 11 Ui i ."I ;iriswi t, 1, 4 1 1 ' II j'ji VIEW IN SAN FRANCISCO ONE worth millions became paupers in those three days. In the days that fol lowed 250,000 people left tbe city and practically all that remained were compelled to lire on tbe bounty of a generous nation. The Recovery. , In spite of tbe Incubus of a corrupt municipal administration, tbe City of the Golden Gate Is rapidly reassuring shape. Great blocks of - brick, con crete and stone are springing up In what a few short months ago waa a desolate waste, among which stood thousands of ruined walls, marking tlte sites of once proud business struc tures. Fifty thousand men are busy rebuilding 4he city, and when the work Is done and tbe last deep scar left by the hurrlcnne of fire Is re moved, San Francisco will be a greater. richer and better city than ever be fore. Tbe buildings that are going up In nearly every case are better than those the fire swept away. The old city was constructed of wood, even In a great part of tho business section. In all the down towu districts now fireproof materials must be used In building . With feverish energy the work Is progressing. Ou many' structures two shifts working eight hours both are employed, and from 8 lu the morning until midnight the sound of hammer and saw aud the steady grind of con crete mixers cau be beard. Within a radius of five blocks from the corner of Kearny and Market streets there are lu process of construction or re habilitation 140 fireproof buildings. Retweeu June 1, 1900, and April 1, 1007, iier.ults were Issued for the erec tion of 841 fireproof aud send-fireproof buildings. Already the steep slopes of Telegraph and Kusslair bills are covered thickly with wooden resi dences, while the downtown streets are lined with business structures. Conservative est i mutes show that more than $l00,000,0t0 has been spent lu reconstruction siuce the Are. This amount would hove been greatly Increased but for tbe difficulty of get ting building materials. The railway blockade which caused trouble through out the country was felt with triple forne lu Sau Francisco. The complete reconstruction of manufacturing plants os well as the vast stores of goods and building materials kept Iu stock here left the rebuilding of the city at the mercy of the trauiortulon companies. About 50,000 uieii have beeu em ployed In reconstruction work and the number Is steadily growing. These ineu have received au average of $3.50 a day each, which brings the total paid to labor alone nearly to the $ki.- 000,000 mark. The remark a bio wages secured by skilled mechanics have served xo Increase euorinously the cost of reconstruction, but they have drawn tollers from all parts of the country and so hastened the progress of reconstruction, it Is estimated that at least .MUHHl,oiO has been spent lu tulldlpg materials. CHICAGO fAMILV POISONED. Father anil Mother til and Other re Made III. Ueadly (Nilsoti ndutlnlHterei by a per son with Intent to annihilate on entire family has already tilled two Chicago grave. Three attempts within three weeks wt re made, two of them while !Mjl!-e were on the case. This Is the ter rible fate of the Mette family, hounded by n mysterious, daring twentieth cen tury adept, who baffled the police and coroner's forces. Food the home pre pared food of tbo Mette family eaten uususiKrtliigly and with sll confidence, has been the medium of the murders and attempted murders. Last March 30, the entire? family, consisting of Frunk Mette, bis. wife, daughter and three sons, Was stricken after eating fruit cake mode by Mrs. Mette. Mrs. Mette died. It looked sus picious to the attending physician, and the jwllce were colled In. Arsenic was found In the flour. The only other wom an In the household, the daughter, Mr Mary Sladek, whose husband had Just left her after a quarrel, and who was said to have twice attempted suicide recently, was closely questioned, but nothing developed. Two weeks after the first illness and after all the survivors had recovered, one of them, the father, was again tak en 111 and died the next day. On the day following Mary Slfldek became III and was taken to the hospital, when the police again questioned her repeatedly without developing a clew. This time poison was found In the flour bin. And two days after that, with the father dead and sister In the hospital, the boys. Joseph, Rudolph and Charles, were again poisoned by eating oatmeal In which poison had been placed. The persistence of the iolsoner made the police frantic and terrorized the Mette family. ASH FUEL SECRET OUT. Cheatists Discover Formal fo. Bornlaar Coal Ashes. The remarkable ash htiriiinv m- iia. covered by John Elimore, an Altoona, Pa., cobbler, which has excited attention almost the world over, is common prop, erty. Several . well-known chemists, im mediately it Was announced that Rllmnn had solved the problem of obtaining heat from ashes, set to work to try to discovet tbe formula. Thev were sneeMaful. and here It is: 3 ; it l??f ittn -tn ... , X YEAR AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE Common salt, one pound; oxalic acid, two ounces; water, one gallon. Mix and moisten with it a mixture containing one part coal and three parts ashes, and a better fuel thaa pure coal is obtained. The ashes of anthracite coal burn as readily as do those of bituminous coal. This mixture will, upon being plsced upon a burning tire, fuse Into a cokelike mass and deposit but little residue. Elimore, who discovered tbe secret and focused attention upon the possibilities that lurked in ashes, says his patent will protect him in his secret. While It is conceded that Elimore has conferred a great boon upon humanity, it is feared that he will not derive any tangible bene fits from bis discovery. A Christian Science Decision. A novel and interesting decision wat recently handed down by the Supreme Court of the State of Texas. The case was that of a lady who had sued the Fort Worth nnd Denver City Railway Company for damages on account of physical and mental suffering in being ex pelled from one of the defendant's passen ger trains. The lady in question was a member of the Christian Science cult, and the attorney for the defendant en deavored to establish this fact during the trial, explaining that the plaintiff would uot take medicine, and that it was her belief that she suffered only when she mougnt Hie suffered, and it was only a question with, her whether she suffered or did not, and that as a Christian Scientist sue uvea in a spiritual plane above men tal and physical sufferings ! thnt It- m an article of her faith that there was no such thing as mental or physical suffer ing. and that she did not nctnnllv i,f fer." The court would not permit the attorney to bring out this point, and a verdict was given for the plaintiff. On appeal the Sunreme Court reverse.) th. decision, holding that It was an error not to allow ttie desired testimony to be in troduced, since it was. nertinent tn h main and essential issue in the case, to wit, the mental and physical suffering of the plaintiff. This deoiulnn mnnti new line of cross-examination in damage suns wuere the plaintiff is a believer Id Christian Science. Told ta a Few Limoa.
