AS Saturday is a holiday by law, as well
as by general usage, THE STAR will not be
published that afternoon. To make up for
this omission. however, the issue for to-
morrow will appear In double-shset or eight
page form, and viii contain an unusually
large and interesting amount of news, liter
airy and miscellaneous reading matter. As
the edition win be very large and widely
circulated, and as this opportunity will be
the last that advertisers will have to reach
the public with their announcements before
Christmas, they should not fail to avail
themselves Of the excellent chance thus
afforded.
@Advertisements should in all cases be
sent in before II O'Clock, noon, to insure in

The earthquake shock which startled Rich.
mond last night, little before midnight,
was also felt in this District, and as far
south as North Carolina. With slight shocks
In this country, north, south and west OF us,
within few years past, this is the first time
within the recollection of the oldest inhabit-
ant that any disturbance has been percepti-
bic in or very near Washington. This fact,
together with the reported uneasiness OF
Mount Vesuvius and the recent shocks on
the Pacific coast, win cause us to look with
great interest for advices from the countries
where the earthquake has its home.

A number Of the highest military officials
in Cuba want to 60 home, and have appealed
TO Valmaseda, the retiring Captain General
but he declines to grant their request. This
is but another evidence that the Spanish
officers in Cuba themselves have no hope OF
ever being able to conquer the rebellion.

The Springfield (Mass.) Republican bows
the New England head to the inevitable AK
with becoming fortitude. 1t says:
"After all, the significant and suggestive
fact Is the definite passage of political and
governing power from this section to the
west. The eastern states have had a long
day-a good deal longer, indeed, than their
relative size, population and stake in the
game entitled them to. They have owed 1t,
partly to their political prestige as the cita-
del OF republicanism, partly to the ability of
the representative men whom they have
kept In the national legislature. But, with
the coming In Of new dispensation, the
scepter passes. There Is no occasion for tears
az there Is no use In quarreling with the in
evitable. Even four sectional vanity Is q
little Jared, we cannot shut our eyes to the
fact that there are large compensations In
important respects, the west Is better fitted
or let US say less unfitted-than New Eng
land and New York for pulling stroke at
this time, in the national boat. For one
thing, our eastern public men are q shade
overturned"
But 1t is doubtful IL New York will accept
the situation as meekly as New England.

The frequent recurrence of bungiing execu-
tions Is attracting general and serious atten-
ton to the subject of disposing of our capital
criminals. 1t is agreed that there are many
ways OF producing death In q much more
speedy manner than by means of strangu-
lation, and is also agreed that the law does
not contemplate nor require the prolonged
suffering of capital criminals. A correspon-
dent ofthe Chicago Tribune suggests tcyano-
thaina, or the use OF anesthetics and hydro
cyanic (Prussic) acid as a much more merci-
