THL EARTHoUAKE. -California news.
papers contain voluminous dispatches
relating to the earthquake. the axis OF
which was in the south eastern part OF
the State. A Visalia dispatch says that
fully 900 distinct shocks were felt AT
Tibbet's Ranch, 10 miles above Indepen-
dence, 40 acres of ground sank about
seven feet below the surface Of the sur
rounding country. Big Ovens Lake has
risen four feet since the first shock
Ovens River runs over its bank, deposit
ing shoals of fish on shore afterward 1t
receded For distance of three or four
miles through Lone Pine the earth is
cracked. One side remained stationary,
while the other sank seven or eight feet,
leaving wall of earth, extending over
three miles in length, where formerly
was n level plain Innumerable cracks
were made throughout the valley. Kern
and Ovens rivers turned and ran up
stream for several minutes, leaving their
beds dry: finally they returned with
largely increased volumes of water. Some
of the shocks were preceded by deafen-
ing report, as though the mountains
were being rent in two, while others
were accompanied by a low, continuous
rumble, as of train of cars running I'M
foreground None OF the sufferers ever
experienced anything so frightful in all
their earthquake experience. At the last
accounts the explosions and heavings
still continue, though not SO violently.

AN IMPORTANT INVENTION The mon
strous and almost incredible impositions
to which ruptured persons have long
been subjected in their efforts to find
relief have induced us to investigate the
merits of the newly invented Elastic
Truss and Supporter. If any of our
readers will send for a Circular to the
Elastic Truss Co., No GS3 Broadway,
New York, we are confident they will
thank us for this information, for we be
liove that with this treatment there need

CRUEL TREATSrENT.-The body of g
young girl named Mary Long, was ex,
humed at Poughkeepsie New York. al
the solicitation of her friends. When
she died her body was left alone and one
eye and the nose were torn away by rats.
She was buried next day after her death
in secret manner, no funeral service
being performed. The testimony at the
inquest showed that for several years
past her father, Edward Long, treated
her in n brutal manner. He acknowl-
edged that he sometimes tied her hands
behind her and used gag on her. One
witness testified to seeing her bare head
ed, bare-shouldered, aud bareiootcd,
driving team of horses for her father
before a harrow in a field. The father
walked behind her sowing seed and
swinging a stout black whip with which
he at times would lash the girl over the
shoulders and legs, always using the but
end of the whip on her shoulders. 1t
was also stated that he tied her hands be-
hind her aud threw her into a creek. The
verdict of the Coroner's jury stated that
she died of exposure, but did not in any
way refer to her father.

And too fast, or they too slow,
To mansions in tho skies"
