SiS 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.

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,.
