Gen eral Chaffee's cablegram says the moun tains and rivers and other streams were 'Bretly disturbed and great damage was done. This is the first serious outbreak re ported during the American occupation of the Philippines. The most important previous seismic disturbance in Mindanao -was the one that partly destroyed Palak, Colabatu and the village on the banks of the River Mindanao in 1872. This phenomenon closely followed the erup tion of a volcano. General Chaffee also cabled that the military situation In that section remains quiet and unchanged.

DID NOT STORM SAN JUAN A Clond Cast Upon a Celebrated Mil itary Story. Boston Transcript. It Is pretty hard to kill a good story; In deed, a really good story never dies no matter how far from the petty, unimagin ative truth It may be. Such a story Is "the charge of the Rough Riders up San Juan Hill." Military men may grow apo plectic and historians may rave, but Roosevelt at the head of his Rough Rid ers storming San Juan Hill will remain, a popular and cherished picture In the public's eye for aye. Nay, more, the picture need not remain in the mind alone; we see it at Buffalo Bill's show, and It has been put upon canvas and ex hibited In all our states, territories and "places subject to our jurisldction." And to make the lesson more emphatic the great 'Verestchagin is talking from day to day about the massive picture of thl3 episode which he is building. Like the boy's fairy story, it's so whether it's so or not. And yet well, why say anything more about it? Still, possibly the historians might be allowed a last desperate chance at publishing their side of the case. Let them have it. Meaning no disrespect to anybody con cerned, they will whisper to their vic tims in some secluded corner that neither Roosevelt nor the Rough Riders stormed San Juan hill! It was another hill, and it -wasn't eo big as San Juan. Let the historian tell it plainly. On the 1st of July, 189S, there were two fights, El Caney and San Juan. Lawton com manded at El Caney, and Kent and "Whee ler before San Juan. The objective point at San Juan was a blockhouse on the summit of San Juan Hill. Between the Americans' position, and that block-house was, first, San Juan River and then a knoll called Kettle hill, on which was a block-house about one-third of a mile from San Juan hill's crest. It was nec essary to take Kettle hill before preceed ing to the larger point beyond. General Carroll was ordered to advance on Kettle hill, supported by Wood. It was a quick but bloody fight, as sanguinary as that of Kent's division at San Juan. The troops comprising the attacking force were: One squadron of the First Cavalry, the Ninth Cavalry and the First Volun teer Cavalry (the "Rough Riders"). And by the way, the first party to reach the top consisted of two troops of the Ninth Cavalry, not the "Rough Riders." This crest gained, the main body of the Amer ican Army moved on, and after a des perate fight captured San Juan hill. None of this Kettle hill force "went up San Juan hill," although some of them, In cluding the Rough Riders, did Join In the attack on San Juan rldge after the sum mit had been taken. Colonel Roosevelt's book makes this sufficiently plain. If the artists and the orators wish to present the taking of San Juan hill, they must put the regulars of the infantry, -who were under Kent, Into the picture. If they wish to present the taking of Kettle hill they may put in the Rough Riders with Colonel Roosevelt somewhere about, but not on horseback, for the cavalry In that battle had no horses. If they wish a true,' faithful picture, let them give us the killing of Colonel Ham ilton while leading the Ninth Cavalry up Kettle hill, or the gallant Colonel Wlkoff, killed while leading the Thirteenth In fantry up San Juan hill. The attack on Kettle hill was a daring, thrilling achieve ment; it was by no means so huge an event or so Important as the attack on San Juan hill which followed. But no such comparisons need be made, and are only cited here to keep the record straight. There was glory enough, peril enough and bravery enough in both achievements without hopelessly befogging, them in our minds, arid by mis-placing our credits and our laurels. And yet we suppose "Roosevelt and the Rough Riders storming San Juan hill" will continue In popular phrase end fable for all our days. Why should we com plain of the falsity of our histories when so soon after this Spanish war ' we are In such hopeless confusion over its main facts? Want Suit Transferred. DENVER, Aug. 27. Attorneys for John W. Gates and his associates, who are seeking to secure control of the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company, today filed a pe tition in the Clerk's office of the Circuit Court asking that the injunction suit now Railvrny Trainmen "Will Demand 20 Per Cent Increase In Wages. " MILWAUKEE, Aug. 27. The Sentinel his morning says: "By September 15 the large railway systems of the country will be enfronted with a demand by 100, 000' members of the Brotherhood of Rail way Trainmen for an increase in wages, which will mean an additional outlay of 51,000.000 a month for wages by railroads In the country or the alternative of a strike which will eclipse in Its extent all previous strikes, including the dem onstration of the American Railway Union in 1834. The demands which have been formulated are for an Increase of 20 per cent In -wages." CLEVELAND, O.. Aug. 27. Assistant Grand Master Lee, of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, said today: "It is true that a concerted move ment has been Inaugurated by trainmen and conductors employed on railroads west of the Mississippi River to secure uniform rules and compensation. A vote of the men. which will probably result In the officers of the two organizations being authorized to present requests to the various roads for these concessions, is now being taken. It will, however,, be at least fO days before the vote has beep completed. There is absolutely no talk of a strike, and the possibility of such a movement is extremely remote."

Greenshlelds, so licitor for Mackenzie & Mann, and Nor man McLean and D. G. MacDonnell, of Vancouver, are arranging with the Gov ernment regarding the proposed Coast Kootenai Railway.

With Macken zie & Mann, the Great Northern is acting, and Mr. Greenshlelds claims that they have a bona fide intention of building the line.

Including the Great North ern, and the plan m-itured will be that the line will be built as a Great Northern proposition, by McLean Bros., backed lo cally by Mackenzie As Mann.

Every one of us slips on some occasion and hame to his fel low who then refuses to etrctch out tho hand that should always be ready tp help the man who stumbles. It is our duty to lift him up, but It Is also our duty to remember that there Is no earthly use In trying to carry him. If a man will submit to being carried, that Is suf ficient to showthat he Is not worth ear ning. In the long run, the only kind of help that really avails Is the help which teaches a man to help himself. "The signs of virtue lie in man'e ca pacity to care for what Is outside him self! The man who gives himself up 'to the service of his appetites, the man who the more goods he has the ,more he wants, has surrendered himself to destruction. It makes little difference with him wheth er he achieves his purpose r not. If his point of view is all wrong, he is a bad citizen, whether he Is rich or poor. Tho man who lives simply and justly and honorably, whether rich or poor. Is a good citizen. "In a purely material civilization the bitterness of attack on another's posses sion Is only additional proof of the extra ordinary importance of ( wealth being re garded as a valuable foundation on which happiness may, with wisdom, be built.

Tonight the President dined here at the home of Senator Hale, who accompanied the party from Bangor. At the' station, when the train pulled in. the President was escorted to a platform near by and delivered a short address. He left at 10 o'clock for Nashua, N.

Address to a Great Crowd at Wnter Tille. BANGOR, Me.. Aug. 27. At Watervllle, on the way from Augusta to this city, where are located a number of large pa per mills, a stand had been erected close to the depot, and from there the President spoke briefly to a largo number of peo ple, many of whom had come from- a dis tance in all sorts of conveyances to hear him. The President spoke in part as fol lows: "My fellow-citizens I wish to thank all the people of Maine for .the way in which I have been greeted. I feel in a certain sense a right to the greeting, for at least I am trying to put Into practice the prln-' ciples in which you believe. I feel that the art of successful government in our country Is the art of applying practically the everyday principles of decency, mor ality and common sense.

All of us stumble at -times, t Help the brother who slips. Set him upon his feet. Try to start him along the right road. But If he lies down, make up ydur mind you cannot carry him. If he won't try to walk himself, he Is not worth carry ing. "The only way by which In the long run any man can be helped Is by teach ing him to help himself. Of course, there may come sudden cataclysms where you have got to extend help with a free hand, thinking only of tho Immediate need, not of the ultimate results. Of course, new conditions will arise here and there, espe cially In the complex industrial life of great cities, where you must shape the legislation of the country on a new basis to meet the new conditions. But, fund amentally. It Is true that the only per manent betterment In the condition of any nation Is to raise the standard of In dividual citizenship throughout that na tion." The train was slowed down also at Plttsfleld and Newport. At each of these places the enthusiasm was genuine and hearty, and the shouts of the people as the President came out could be heard for some time after the train went by. The special train bearing the President and his party arrived here at 12 o'clock, on time. The President was met at the train by President Bcal. of the Eastern Maine State Fair Association; Senator Hale, Congressmen Llttlefield and Powers and others.

The President and his party then re turned to their carriages, and the cav alcade made the circuit of the track. The President stood most of the time as Tils carriage passed through the crowd. At the Maine Central Station another great crowd was assembled, and here the cheering was continued. Across the city the train was watched by thousands, and when it reached the switch at Hancock street, the residents of the locality gavo the President a- warm reception.

Great ex citement existed In the vicinity of Red Ash and Beury today, caused by the con stables removing striking families from company houses. About 40 families who were notified to leave the houses of the Red Ash Coal Company refused to vacate, and when the constables began to remove their household goods a volley of shots was fired at the officers from the opposite side of tho river. They returned the fire with rifles. It Is estimated that S00 shots were fired. The shooting was all at long range, and no one on the Red Ash side was hurt. About 40 deputies who had been sta tioned at Thurmond and other points In the striking district were rushed to the scene of the shooting, and a late report now states that the men who opened the fire are now surrounded.

The situation In the Panther Creek Valley tonight Is serious. At 8 o'clock the streets of Lans- ford and Summit Hill were thronged with strikers. Early In the evening two com panies of the Twelfth Regiment were, sent through the Valley on a trolley car. All along the line the soldiers were hooted and Jeered, and It was deemed prudent to take them off the cars, while Mary Markley was earning supper to her brother, who Is employed at a colliery near Lansford, she was set upon and se verely beaten by a crowd of women. Late tonight the crowds on the streets have dwindled, and order has been par tlally restored. The civil authorities ex press the belief that there will be no serl ous disturbances during the night. They are fearful, however, that a serious clash will occur between the troops and the strlkera In the morning. The fact that the Lehigh Coal & Navigation Company Is hoisting coal at Its No. 4 colliery has greatly Incensed the mlneworkers. espe dally the foreigners, and they are deter mined not to allow nonunion men to go to work tomorrow. SHENANDOAH, Pa.. Aug. 27. The Governor's Troop left here at 7:30 o'clock tonight for Panther Creek valley.

It was not eo many years ago that Gaelic in this country was practically an unknown language, and on Its native heaths In Ire land and among the highlands of Scotland. while the spoken tongue was handed down from father to son, the written language was a closed book to all but a few scholars. I In very recent years a remarkable re- j vival has taken place in the study of the j ancient tongue, wnicn some scnoiars nave claimed to antedate the Greek and Sans krit. Gaelic books have been written, Gaelic periodicals are on sale at the newsstands.- Gaelic professorships have been founded in the leading universities In this country as well as In the great schools In England, France and Germany. Gaelic sermons are now preached In three ! churches in Boston, and there are more than 50 clubs In New York, Boston and San Francisco, the purpose of which Is to study and propagate the study of the Gaelic language and literature, and a con servative estimate places the number ot Gaelic-speaking people In thlo country at not less than 1.000,000. A remarkable feature of the revival Is that from America, where the movement started, the dealre to study the ancient language has spread to Ireland, where It had a!mos gone into decay.
