LITTLE KNOWN OF EARTH
QUAKES.
After all the Inquiry, Investigation,
speculation and attempted explanation
that have followed the great calamity
at San Francisco, kbout the only thing
that has been certainly develhped Is
the fnet that the world knows very lit
tle about earthquakes.
Seismology Is evidently In Its In
fancy when there Is so much Inquiry
and demand tor Information, while no
body responds with an explanation of
the disturbances, ' Absolutely nothing
has been forthcoming from the scien
tists In the way ot fundamental facts
as to the cause ot earthquakes.
We are told by as good an authority
i the Philadelphia Ledger that the
careful and systematic observation of
earthquakes has been going on not
more than twenty-five years, and that
there are complete records for only
about halt that period. 'But this lim
ited knowledge Is useful only in so far
It may lead to a discriminating
Judgment as to what Is not scientific
ally true or accurate la the mass of
matorlat ottered for the Instruction ot
the people.

No Apology Desired.
From tlm Atlanta N.w.,
The, open lettor ot a well meaning
citizen of Atlanta to President Roose
velt, In which the request Is made that
the latter comfort the deuthbed of Mrs,
Jetreraon Davis by having transmitted
to her it pereonul telegram withdraw
ing the malicious nnd untruthful words
that he used about her luislmnd, the
Confederate qhleftaln, was not repre
sentative of the Southern view or the
•Southern Standnrd.
This Is not snld offensively—but to
let It bo known of nil men, for all time,
that the typlcnl Southerner nevor be
seeches apology from any man, how
ever exalted.
The News respects the able young
attorney who evidently felt that he
was doing a work,that would result
beneficently, when he had published
the letter nnd request, under review.
But we do not believe that tho gentle
man—a Southern man—knows the full
story of this attack, or had In mind
the absolute venom of him who was
Its author, else he would have never
addressed his open letter to n mdn
who had not the gentility to treat
courteously a gentle letter of correc
tion from the wronged patriot, who
was perhaps the best friend of Els
mother's fumlly.
The father of Jefferson Davis, be It
remembered, was a native of Georgia.
The mother of Theodore Roosevelt
was a native of Georgia. Tho father
was a gentleman—the mother a gen
tle-woman. The Bon of tho father was
a most elegant and courageou8 gentle
man—the son ot the mother should
have apologized to hts mother's people
long ago (or his conscienceless slander
on one who was their Idol.
For him to come forward now, with
an apology to the dying widow of gran
deur, would be the act of Insincerity.
No,. Mrs. Davis does not wish to be
Insulted by having any communication,
however apologetic, from Theodore
Roosevelt. Let his miserably mean
and venomous slander stand, as It was
written. There ts not an honest man
