HOME NEWSPAPERS.
The Value of Them to the People.

Their value is by no means apprecia-
ted, but the rapidity with which people
are waking up to their necessity and
usefulness is one of the significant
signs of the times. The thirst for
knowledge is not easily satiated, and
books, though useful-yea, absolutely
necessary in their place. fail to meet
the demands of youth or age. The
village newspaper is easily sought and
Its contents as eagerly IevOured. Then
comes the demand for the county news,
state news, national and foreign news.
Newspapers are also valuable to ma
terial prosperity. They advertise the
village, county or locality. They
spread before the reader a map on
which may be traced character, design
progress. If stranger calls at hotel
he first inquiries for the village news
paper: if friend comes from a dis
lance. the very next thing after family
greeting, he inquiries for a village or
country newspaper, and you feel dis
comfted if you are unable to find a
late copy. and COMPOUNDED if you do
not take it.
The newspaper is just as necessary
to fit man for his true position in life
as food or raiment. Show US a ragged,
barefoot boy rather than an ignorant
one. His head will cover his feet in
after life if he is well supplied with
newspapers. Show us the child that
is eager for newspapers. He will
make the man OF mark in after life f
you crafty that desire for knowledge.
Other things being equal, it is a rule
that never fails Give children news
papers.-EE.

THE sunk LAKns.

~ NY 81 rH IA ga
We extract from letter from our
correspondent "Nimrod, the following
interesting account of the earthquakes
which produced such a commotion in
southeastern Missouri and west Ten
nsssee in the early part Of the present
century: -tttti
i have gathered many interesting
particulars from different sources in
regard to the New Madrid shock. 1t
has been long time age, and many
people are acquainted with the facts, but
earthquakes are so forcible, that de-
scriptlon of one will bear repetition.
If the reader viii pardon me, l will
give few particulars as l got them
from those who gathered them from
eye witnesses.
The FIRST shock took place ON the
18th of December, 1911, about 2 o'clock
A. NJ. The whole neighborhood of
New Madrid was first awakened by the
noise which sounded like the distant
firing of artillery; this was soou fol-
lowed by noise which seemed like
fearful crashes of thunder overhead.
The atmosphere was at once filed with
sulphurOus vapor, causingintense dark
ness over the whole country; people
frightened, went to and fro, filing the
air with horrifyIng screams and pitifnl
means. a great many people took to
praying-they thought the world had
come to an end Frightened animals
would run as if they were terrified to
death. The Mississippi roared like a
feaeful tornado and thunder mixed,
waves rolled mountain high and the
water swept over the whole country
known as New Madrid Bend, drowning
many people. By some powerful
agency the centrifugal force Of nature
was hurled back upon itself and for a
time the powerful waters of the Mis-
sissippi were retrograde. Flatboats
that had landed there on their way 10
New Orleans were broken loose from
their moorings and went back upon the
retrogade current as though they were
in tow with some powerful monster
This retrogade Of the waters was sup
posed 10 have been produced by an up
heaval of the bed of the Mississippi
From 2 o'clock till sunrise slight
shocks continued to pass over the coun-
| try. At about that time fearful
shock took place, which was more vio-
lent than any that had preceded it.
On the 23d of January. 1872, some
three or four shocks took place-all
very hard-the last was so much hard
er than any of the rest, it was denom-
mated as the hard shock; all were ac-
eompanied with the same phenomena,
such as filling the atmosphere with sui
phurous vapor. producing darkness,
cracking Of the earth, emitting of sand
and coal and burnt cinGer and the
thunderlike noise under the earth. The
earth was torn to pieces for hundreds
of acres around New Madrid. The
own of New Madrid was settled down
fifteen feet; most of the town was de-
stroyed. During one of the hard shocks
the earth sunk across the river from
Madrid. for over fifteen miles in length
and some places seven miles wide
That place is now known as Reel Foot
lake.
Some people say the earth is all hol-
low underneath in this country. They
predict that it will all go down together
some day. NIMRoD."

The Great Chicago Circus,


Willexhibit in this borough on Thursday
afternoon and evening next, the 9th
inst. Read what is said of this great
show by the Philadelphia papers, and
then get your fifty cents ready:
The immense combination of circus,
menagerie, museum, aviary, balloon
ascension, &C., spread its canvas on
Fairmount Park Hill in this city yester-
day, and it is the biggest spread ever
made in this city. We are somewhat
familiar with the sensational language
used in the advertisements of circus
companies, menageries. &C., and have
not been disappointed when we saw
superior display upon the bill boards
than we did within the canvas. In the
present instance we are happily dlsap-
pointed the other way. Baird Howell
g. Cos Show is call It is cracked up to
be-" The man ayers perform and ex-
hibit all they advertise. Their show is
SIMPLY immsns and is well worth rid
hg many miles to see. They have the
largest collection of wild animals, birds,
&C., ever exhibited in this city; and
their circus performance has never been
equaled in our city. This fact became
apparent when the grand parade took
place in the city in the morning-and
the consequence was. their canvas, large
as it is, was utterly inadequate to ac-
commOdate the thousands who fiocked
to see the show, both in the afternoon
and evening, There were more people
gathered on Fairmount Hill last even
ing than was ever before collected on
the same space in the city. So great
was the demand for tickets, and so
great the crowd inside the tent, that the
performance had to be stopped; and
nearly five hundred people had to leave
their money being refunded. The
ticket boxes were closed and thousands
had to be turned away. There has
never been anything like it at any
similar show. = Philadelphia Sunday
