AN ISLAND DISAPPEARS. with a Population of About 12,600

A Te_rn°ble Explosion Engnlfs the Great Sangir Island in the Paciﬁc.

Srn.vsv, N. S. W., July 18-The cap- tain of the steamer Catterthun !'9P°’“ that on June 29 he called at Tlmor and found there a Dutch steamer that M3 left Great Sangir Island on J une 17- A few hours after her departure the pounds of a terrible explosion were heard Hi the direction of the Sangir group and this was followed shortly afterwards by -how- ers of ashes, which covered the deck Of the steamer and darkened the whole at- mosphere. When the cloud: of dust had cleared away nothing was visible on the horizon but masses of vapor that extend- ed for many miles. Great Sansifi which prior to the explosion was in full sight. could not be seen. Six sealing vessels were anchored off the Island, and It is thought they must have been destroyed. The captain of the Catterthun also states that the Island of Luzon, the largest of the Phillipine group, has recently suﬁbred severely from eruptions,the ﬁre from which caused widespreal devastation.

Sangir, or Sanguir, was an island of the Malay Archipelago, midway between C-elebes and Mindanao, in lat. 3° 88 N., long. 125’ 44 E. Its length was near 30 miles and its average breadth 10 miles. The surface was mountainous and in its centre was a volcano.

The inhabitants, which number ab -ut 12,000, were largely of the Malay race, and cage was the principal product. SYDNEY, July l9.—A native from ‘the Talantse Islands who landed at Selangen four weeks ago brought a remarkable story‘ to the eﬂect that several other natives had just returned from a voyage near Sangir. They had intended to land on the island, but were prevented by the sight of the mountain belching forth ﬁre and smoke. They reported that the whole island was on ﬁre. The water along the coast was full, they said, of half burn-

Temperance Tea Party.

The Temperance Tea Party under the auspices of the I. O. G. T. and the W. C. T. U. of Vernon River Bridge, took place as advertised on the grounds of D. P. Irving, Esq., on Wednesday last.

As it threatened rain in the morning, the gathering was not so large as we could wish, but notwitbtanding this drawback a large number attended and partook of the delicious eatables.

The tables were under the superinten- dence of Mrs. D. P. Irving, of Vernon River Bridge, Mrs. W. Jenkins, of Seal River and Miss S. McRae, of Vernon River Bridge, assisted by the Misses Mc- Leod of Orwell, the Misses Sheidow and

sold the for good of the cause, were magniﬁcent. One we noticed expecially, the iceing of which was a delicate pink. This cake was contributed by Mrs. H. F. Hunter of Cleveland, Ohio.,who isat pre- sent visiting at Malcolm Moll se’s, Vernon River Bridge.

The table under the superintsndence of Mrs. D. P. Irving was loaded with good things. The snow pudding was especially tempting and tasted delicious.

Mrs. William J enkin’s table groaned under the weight of seven large cakes on sale for the good of the cause.

Miss McRae's table too,was well stocked with rich cake. We noticed several lakes of variegated color-s,the work of Mrs H F Hunter, who we understand assisted Min McRae in baking for this table. Oakﬁs were also contributed by Miss McPhail and the Misses McLeod of Orwell, Mrs W W Forbes of Avondale and a number of others. __

After all had partaken and were satis- ﬁed. Mr L E Prowse of Ch’town, auction- ed oil’ the cakes in a manner that would almost make one believe Mr Prone had mistaken his calling when he became a merchant instead of an auctioneer. The temperance people of Vernon River Bridge and vicinity should payMr-Prowse percentage by patronising his cheap cloth- ing store.

The saloon we could see was well stock- ed with all kinds of delicacies. Miss Dntchcr of Vernon River and Miss Me- Leod of Orwell as well as several gentle- men were kept busy serving inths mloon.

And the ‘Piper,’ we have forgotten his name, but we can never forget the music ﬁllet is so dear to the heart of a 8cotoh.. mu. Ind we were supplied with it to our 5”"-'3 Oontent. The proceeds of. the

affair amounted to the neat sum of 8165. -—Cou. — V A

The Liquor Dealers and the Commission

S1s.:——From a cursory glance at your article “ The Liquor Dealers and the Commission,” in your weekly issue of to- day, and in which give the readers there- of a few valuable hints as regards a cer- tain Mr. Kribs, of Toronto, I presume this is the gentleman to which the follow- ing short article from another source applies. “ The Licensed Victuallers (liquor-sellers) of Canada are on the alert to utilize the pending oﬁcial inquiry by the Royal Commission for the promotion of their trade interests. It is stated that they have taken an important step toward presenting the best possible case before the Commission by retaining an expert in ﬁgures, one of the editors of the Toronto Empire, to prepare statistical information relating to the liquor traﬂio in what they term “its industrical aspect.” These ﬁguresand “facts" are to beplsced be- fore the Commission as the liquor maker’: and seller's ‘side of the “ case." This liquor export, it is said, by his training on the Dominion Government organ, “ has become well qualiﬁed to out the alleged strong points of a very weak case.” This adroit action on the part of the Canada liquor men will render it most important for our Canadian temperance friends to have collected and classiﬁed a thorough exhibit of well anth- enticated statistics and facts concerning the temperance reform and the prohibition of the drink tralﬁc. Otherwise there will be danger that the Royal Commis- sion’s report mayseriouslyinjure the cause it should be made to serve.”

This, air, is kindly advice from our co-workers across the border,and‘ ought to stir up such a sentiment among ourselves as to prevent, it it be possible to do so, any injury being done to our cause.

Some few weeks ago there ap- peared in your columns a letter signed “Observer,” bearing on the questions submitted to the medical profession, with a suggestion that some action might be taken by them and the city clergy con- jointly, if possible, to have such answers in readiness as they might deem neces- sary to lay before the Royal Commission.

steps being taken,I still trust it is not yet too late to revive this subject, as there are no other two classes in our midst who

I must nottrespsss further on your space at pr-eseut,but may have more to sayat an- o her tﬁle. Please have an eye‘ on the mid “expert in ﬁgures.” . Yonrsinthecanseanda ,’ Paonrnrnoxzsai‘
