YOU AXO IS ACI1VK K?re Violent Eruptions of SaivuraJioiu Adds to Terror on Island. ! ivagoshima. Japan, .Tan. IT.?The j Tolcano continued active today and emitted great quantities of stones and ashes. Explosions occurred and poisonous gases were ejected, making breathing difficult. The emperor's envoy has found it impossible t# make the trip around SakuraJima. Two further violent eruptions of Sakura-Jima, accompanied by a severe earthquake, occurred . late last aigta, causing the collapse of many tore buildings. Numbers of the inhabitants of Kagoshima, who had re. turned fled again in terror from the city. Ashes are falling thickly today. The sun looked like a ball of blood j over Kagoshima today. Darkness was such that night signals were employed on the railroads. Flying dust was ?o thick that the few pedestrians had to cover their mouths and n^ses with towels to prevent suffocation. The sea in the Gulf of Kagoshima seemed to be boiling and the quantity of floating pumic stone was so great that it prevented navigation. trsiuejacKeis jrum uie jiiijituesf i fleet today discovered a native craft i ontaining 16 starving refugees. Tbey j reported that owing to the floating masses of pumice stone and the high seas they had been unable to steer tkeir boat and had spent three days adrift. The bluejackets were able to reach them only by using a wedgeshaped raft, with which they pierced a field of pumice stone resembling ice floes. Lava today was flowing steadily down the sides of the volcano, increasing the area of the island as it solidified on reaching the sea. il is siui impossible 10 give any- j thing like an approximate estimate of j the number of victims of the recent; eruptions and tidal waves. Some offi- \ cials here express the hope that almost all escaped from Sakura. Others are less optimistic. Prof. Fusakichi Omori. the seismol?gist, pointing today to the village of Yokohama at Sakura, where 400 Rouses lie buried in lava, said: "Are tie people buried there as in Pompeii?" and answered himself, "Only Ihe future can reply." , ? . , I Many rerugees are reporteo to nave fceen driven insane from terror and xposure. Over a million letters and 8,000 telegrams are held up in Kagoshima. SUFFRAGE SUFFERS REVERSE } Ifets no Special Sommittee of House. ?Surprise to Leaders. Washingtony Jan. 17.?The decision #f the majority members of the house rules committee against the creation oi a standing committee of the house on woman suffrage landed like a boomshell in the ranks of national suffrage leaders gathered here. Both the congressional committee of the National American Suffrage association and the Congressional Union for "Woman Suffrage have been pressing the matter, but a radical difference of opinion between the organizations was indicated by the comments toil igiht. The congressional union, at a hurriedly called meeting, adopted unanimously a resolution declaring the meeting "regarded with indignation" the action of the democratic members of the rules committee "in refusing to create a committee to consider the justice and expediency of extending self goverment institutive tr? wnmpn " Mrs. Antoinette Funck, lobby member of the suffrage association, took exception to the attitude of the congressional union. "I am fearful lest the avowed policy of the union to strike at the Democratic party as a j whole," she said, "may have contrib- j uted to this most regrettable situation. ! "It is the intention of our committee to remain entirely non-partisan i a x _ 1_ _ i ; ~ ^ I ana 10 support ai primaries auu kiwtions national officers who show a friendly disposition towards us and never to oppose any candidate unless he has ingnored a well defined sentiment for suffrage among his constituents." Mrs. Funck declared that under the caucus system four members of the rules committee had been able to defeat the will of the whole committee. Assurances had been received, she added, that a reconsideration would be sought by suffrage sympathizers who are members of the Democratic house caucus. "We then will be able, at least," she said, "to put the blame where it belongs." DISSOLTES ORDER Federal .Court .Upholds .Insurants Commissioner.?Can Revoke License. C^arlesta*, Jsa. X7<?-Judge M, A, M. Smith of the federal court, in an order filed this afternoon,dissolved a temporary injunction restraining F. H. McMaster, insurance commissioner of South Carolina, from revoking the license of the Mutual Life Insurance company of New York from doing business in this State. This paves the way for the commissioner to proceed to revoke tne company's license if he sees fit under ine laws 01 me ouue. Commissioner- McMaster last summer notified the company to show cause why its license should not be revoked. By way of reply, the company secured a temporary injunction in the United States district court. The commissioner alleges that the company does not comply with the terms of its contract.

Thp site* mmnrisfs eieht acres and was purchased yesterday from G. A. Guingnard, the purchase price being $15,000. A. J. Bethea, one of the trustees announcing the decision, yesterday said: "The executive members of the board of trustees to whom was referred the matter of buying a site think that they have made a fine purchase. The committee canvassed every available site in and around Columbia and it was the unanimous opinion of the committee that this was the cheapest and best site inspected. It is on a beautiful plateau and commands a splendid view of the + PTivaiVionc who Vl!S\7?> cAAn it JL AJL J I^iviuuo 1?

"The site selected is very accessible, being only seven blocks from the union station, and right at the end of the car line which is being built along Saluda avenue through the Wale3 Gardens property. It is our information that Saluda avenue will be paved in a "short time and paved sidewalks are now being constructed. This property is contiguous to the best residential section of Columbia and the surroundings are all that could be desired," Mr. Bethea continued. "Tie site lends itself to the erection of a modern hospital in every respect and there is ample opportunity for future development in hospital equipment These considerations had their weight with the committee in the selection of the site," he added. The Baptist State convention at Bennettsville committed itself most heartily to the hospital idea, and it is said that a great and worthy in stitution will be built. Members of Committee.

The kidney secretions were unnatural and annoyed me greatly. I consulted several physicians and tried a number of kidney remedies, but did not improve in the least.
