THE KATMAI EXPLOSION. ,
Tarrifio Result* of Thi* Foarful Volcanic
Eruption.
Science is still investigating the
terrific Katmai volcano eruption of
June, 1912, in Alaska, one of the
most tremendous in the history of
the world. This fearful upheaval,
says a bulletin of the National Geographic
society, ranks easily among
the twelve most violent eruptions
this planet has ever known.
Prior to this cataclysm of nature
Krakatoa had held fir^t place in the
minds of most people, but the quantity
of material thrown out by Katmai
was vastly greater, and it is estimated
that the whole of the island
of Krakatoa could be dropped into
the Katmai crater.
In order to present a mental picture
of the extent of the territory
affected by this eruption Professor
Riggs has pointed out that if such
an outburst had centered in New
York city the whole of Greater New
York would have been buried under
from ten to fifteen feet of ashes and
would have been subjected to unimaginable
horrors from hot gases.
The column of steam and ashes
would have been plainly visible beyond
Albany, and the continued activity
of the volcano would have
prevented anv one approaching the
ruins nearer than Patereon for several
months.
Philadelphia would have been covered
by twelve inches of gray ash
and would have groped in total
darkness for sixty hours. Washington
and Buffalo would have received
a quarter of an inch of ash baptism, |
accompanied by a shorter period of
darkness. Small quantities of ash
would have fallen throughout the
eastern states as far sooth as the
gulf coast.
The sound of the explosion would
have been heard in Atlanta and St.
Louis, and the fumes would have
tainted the air in Denver, San Antonio
and Jamaica. No imagination
can picture the destruction of life
and property which would have followed
this eruption had it occured
in a thickly populated section of the
United States instead of in a remote
section of Alaska twenty-five miles
inland.
Train Spead.
Here's how to determine how fast
a railroad train is going. An old
railroader vouches for its exact accuracy.
Ask the conductor to tell
you the length of rail you are riding
over.
If it is a thirty-three foot rail the
number of joints you pass in twenty
seconds will be the number of miles
per hour the train is going. Thus,
if you pass forty rail joints in twenty
seconds you will De going forty
miles per hour.
If you are on a thirty foot rail
the number of joints passed in eighteen
seconds will equal the number
of miles per hour.

Dickens wanted to be an actor
before he was an author. He would
hare been but for a face ache.
When he was a lad and a lawyer's
clerk he had attained a trial of his
power of reproducing "character
and oddity" before Mathews and
Charles Kemble. But a face ache
kept him at home, and soon after
he "made a great splash" as a newspaper
reporter. Thereafter he reproduced
"character and oddity" on

Odd Proposal of Marriag*.
That celebrated painter of flower
and figure subjects, William Hunt,
was on one occasion commissioned
by a gentleman to paint his portrait
in the attitude of kneeling and
holding in his hand an open scroll
whereon were written a declaration
of love and an offer of marriage.
The ladv to whom this unusual proposal
of marriage was sent replied
with a chalk drawing of herself
with a 6heet of paper in her hand
on which was inscribed a laconic
"Yes."
Cut According to the Cloth.
"Have you any ideas on the subject
of the proper income tax exemption?"
inquired the loyal constituent.
"A whole raft of 'em," replied
Congressman Hammfatt. "They
have been sent in by my friends back
home, they range from $1,000 to
$500,000, and in each case the exemption
proposed is a few dollars
more than the annual receipts of the
man making the suggestion."?Richmond

Horse Racing In Mongolia.
Perhaps the prohibition of horse
ill J 1-.
racing wouiu oe moreueepiy rcocuted
in Mongolia than in any other
country of the world. There it
ranks as the favorite pastime of all
classes, including the Buddhist
clergy, who number fully one-third
of the total population. The races
are never under ten miles, and the
Mongolian Derby" is a contest over
thin v miles of rough steppe.?Lon
