i does this number cover all the young
women who drop nut of the world of
their acquaintances suddenly. The
police say that no more than half the
actual disappearances are formally
reported.
"Durfng 1911." says a police of
ficial commenting on the figures, "we
have been confronted with hundreds
of cases similar in every degree to
that of Dorothy Arnold. Many other
cases are just as baffling a hers. The
young girls left absolutely no trace
behind. They made no preparation
for departure and few have since been
heard from. We maintain a bureau
to carry on this wore of search for
missing persons.
"Our investigations show that there
are four reasons which cover most
of the disappearances first, severe
home restraint; second, extreme pov
erty; third, theatrical aspirations;
fourth, lured away."

Upheaval of InsUnd Excites Residents
on Adjoining Coast.
Port of Spain, Trinidad. The up
heaval of a small Island off the south
ern coast has naturally created some
excitement In the colony, especially In
the district where this strange phe
nomenon occurred.
Nothing but the end of the world
could. In the eyes of the country peo
ple on the adjoining coast, be hap
pening when clouds of smake and fire,
hundreds ef feet high were belching
apparently from the open sea, and
they deserted thplr dwellings, en
masse and either fell on the road and
prayed, or fled to the, woods for shel
ter. . .
The height of the flames may be
understood from the fact that they
were seen In Port of Spain, forty miles
away. The first Intimation of any
thing unusual was on the mornlpg oi
Nov. 4 when a fisherman observed
a small cone of land protruding
from the sea, where he knew no land
had existed before. On approaching,
he found the water bubbling all
round, and getting frightened, rowed
away.
During the , evening there was a
loud report, immediately succeeded by
a dense column of smoke and then
fire. This continued, but gradually
diminished until the early morning.
The news was communicated te the'
governor, Sir George Le Hunte, the
same night, and early next morning
he left In one of the government
steamers with a small party to visit
the place. On arrival it was found
that the Island, then about two and
one-half acres in extent, was situat
ed some two miles off the village of
Chatham, In the Bay of Erin, where
Cclumbus Is said to have landed on
his discovery of Trinidad, and twelve
miles from the Boca de la Slerpe, or

trance to the Gulf of Parla. Although

managed to land, and found the crUHt
fairl hard toward the center of the
island.
Two craters stood out, about six
feet In diameter. The highest point
was about fifteen feet above sea
level. There was a distinct smell of
oil and sulphur, anu gas was sun es
caping from the craters. Gas could
be heard rumbling below, and in the
opinion of an expert who was presenl
the phenomena was due to an erup
tion of a mud volcano, occasoned by
oil gas. The fossilised ' remains of
marine animals were noticed.
The expert accounted for the blaze
by the striking together of rocks con
taining iron pyrites, which Ignited the
gas, and caused the explosion and fire.
XO MORE TIPS." SAY
KNIGHTS OF THE GRIP
Travelers' Loftguo Starts Crusade
Against System That Is Relic of
Iood Barbarism.
New York. The anti-tipplng cru
sade received a stalwart recruit when
P. E. Dowe, president of the Com
mercial Travelers' National League,
came out with the announcement that
h's organization will combat the prac
tice of giving gratutles to employes
of hotels restaurants, barber shops
and Pullman cars.
Dowe puts It on the broad ground
that, not only will the tippers be able
to obtain what they pay for regular
ly, but the tipped will be elevated from
a menial place, dependent on char
ity, to that of regular wage-earners.
"From today the crusade against
tipping will beg n in earnest," says
Dowe.. "The victims of this perni
cious system realize that to break the
chains which bind, it must be now or
never."
, He declares that hotel and restau
rant proprietors are making extraor
dlnary profits as it Is. and that their
greed Is responsible for tbe system
now in vogue.
"Tipping shou'd go," he declares.
"The old-time fashion of gifts from
the rich patron to the poor servant is
out of place in the-ie modern daya.
Once it was the distinction between
the high and mighty and lowly; now
the tin is either in the nature of a
bribe or an enforced premium upon
the contract prices.
."Stop tipping," he Bays, "and the
hotel help will be placed In a less
nial position and Pullman porters
advanced. Stop tipping, and they
will become earners of adequate
wages, instead of strong-armed and
beggars. Let us e'.lminate from Am
erican life one of the blots upon our
constitution, or upon that part of it
claiming that all men were created
free and equal."

PRIEST LOST IN CHURCH.
Peculiar Predicament of Father Code

Chicago. The Rev. Father Code,
pastor of St. Edmunds church, in
Oak Park, is busy telling his friends

Christmas eve.

candle, to investigate a small blaze
that had broken out there a little
while before.
He had not gone far into the loft
when the candle was snuffed out. The

sat down on a rafter and dropped a
