St. Vincent la Re- 'ported to Re ftotlre-ohl y Sale Idlna; In Many IMarea. PARIS. Sept. 13. Th- French scientific expedition which was sent to the Island of Martinique to study the situation caused by the eruption of Mount Pelee has drawn up a second report In which, speaking of the eruption of August 30, the commission ers say that the disquieting eruption ot that day renders continuous study of the phenomenon neceesary. 'There la no longer any doubt," the com missioners say, "that the evacuation of the entire Mount Pelee region, which we did not consider indispeoslbls a month ago, should now be carried out. ' Until the vol canic disturbances have ceased the South ern limits of the - mountain ought to be most' actively watched, especially If It Is demonstrated that 'the last eruption was due to a new crater tn the lateral flasure." The report concludes by dwelling upon the danger of tidal waves inundating Fort de France. More Smoke Oat of Soufrlere. KINGSTOWN, Island of St. Vincent, Sept. 11. An official at Chateau Bclalr re porta that the 8oufrlere's new crater, Which has been quiet hitherto, ia today throwing out black smoke. The old crater, which in the scientists' opinion did all the work since May-7, and which erupted Sept. 3, is still Issuing white RLAAin In dense clouds, which can be seen from Kingstown over the northern moun- tains. The craters and tbe Wallibou and Rtchmoud districts could be seen yester day. The volcanic matter which fell at Rich mond and Wallibou waa finer than' that which fell at Chateau Belalr, although the places are ' Very near each other. The pumice ejected September S waa more honeycombed, closely resembling that found in tbe Mediterranean. There" has been a further subsidence at Wallibou In four- different places and the local opinion is that theae subsidences on the coast line may account for the sand like substances 'ejected September 3.

Two novelties at. the army maneuvers, Juat ended, were wireless telegraphy ad Boer tactics. Tbe results of tbe wireless experiments seem com pletely satisfactory and In the opinion of the military, chiefs will enormously, affect the transmission of Intelligence during bat tle. Tbe system used was neither the Slabyn or the Marconi, and a description of the apparatus s not available because visitors at the maneuvers when they came close to the stations were requested to retire. The exterior of the apparatus Is simply a cu bical Iron box, about three feet each way, .mounted on a wagon resembling a gun carriage and drawn by four horses. . The messagea sent were caught on a wire talllc 'sound audible for a hundred yards, Tte cavalry corp..

LIKE PROVIDENCE - A Floating Bos Changed a Man'. Llf. Things drift into our lives In a curious way.

"The doctors ssld It wae acute Indiges tion or gastritis. There wa really noth ing that I could eat and enjoy, aad when on. cannot enjoy hi. meals, he may aa well be dead. There wa a time when I could eat aad digest anything, but for two year preyiou. to last eprlag I was In a wretched state. I tried everything I heard of, took all kind of medicine, almoat enough to float a abip, but with no lasting purpose. 'Last spring I had t. give up work and went to Atlantic City. On. day while strolling along th. beach I noticed a box being tossed about oa the breaker and finally thrown up oa the aaid. I aat down oa tba aand and looked idly at first, but after reading a few wefd on tb box,. I got latereited. It teld bow Orape-Nut food waa prepared and all it good qualities aad I made up my mind then and there that I would try It. "I bav. not taken a drop ot medicine from that day to this, but . used about a half package of Orap.-Nut. each day for two month. Then I gradually began eating meat and v.getabl. and fruit agd now I .at anything I care to without -It-distressing ma. but I still cling to Orape-Nuta feed, aa I am fond of it prepared In varlou. waya and n.ver a day passes that I don't have It ln aom. form. 1 "After the first two month, of utfcg Orape-Nuta I weighed "myself every 15 day. aad found I gained from three to ftve pounda each time. I have bona working every day sine, and rag aay I never relt better. Tbanke to Grape-Nut., I now bva an appetite like a billy goat and are no more troubled with a bad stomach "I wish I could talk with everyo trou bled aa I wae. I know a good maa peopj. ay: 'Ob, I'v. tried everything. 1 am tired Of trying.' etc, but I aay, 'pop't glv. up 'until you try Orap.-NuK food .nd yoij will not rgret It.'" .
