Extract from letter to gentleman
from his friend at New Madrid, Mis-.
souri,, dated December 16, 1911:
"About two O'clock this morning we
were awakened by most tremendous
noise, while the house danced about and
seemed as if it would fall on our leads
I soon conjectured the cause Of our
trouble, and cried it was an earthquake,
and for the family to leave the house;
which we found very difficult to do,
owing to its rolling and jostllngabout.
The shock was soon over, andno in
jury was sustained, except the los of the
chimney, and the exposure Of my family
to the cold of the night. At the time OF
the shock the heavens were very clear
and serene, not breath of air stirring;
but in five minutes it became very dark;
and vapor which seemed to imregnate
the atmosphere, had a disgreeable
smell, and produced a difficulty of res
piration. / knew not how to account
for this at the time, but whenI saw in
the morning the situation of my neigh
bors' houses, all Of them moe or less
injured, attributed it to thedust and
SCOT, ETC., which arose from heir fall.
The darkness continued untiliay break,
during which time we had eght more
shocks, none of them SO violnt as the
first.
AthalEpast six o'clock in tie morning
it cleared up, and believing he danger
over, left home to see whatinjury my
neighbors had sustained. A fSw min
utes after my departure, thee was an
other shock, extremely violeit I hur-
ried home as fast as I couli but the
agitation of the earth was SO 9eat that
1t was with difficulty that kept my

In the House of the Iowa Legislature,
on January IA. 1875, Mr.. Clayton intro
duced q concurrent resolution which
was adopted by full vote. deprecating
the attempt in Louisiana by Gov
ernor Kellogg and the Returning
Board to thwart the will of the
people, condemning the bold attempt
to subvert the expressed wishes of
the majority of the legal voters Of
Louisiana as extremely dangerous to
q republican form of government and
revolutionary in character; also sending
greetings to the (bogus) legislature of
the State of Louisiana, and congratulate
ing it upon its triumph over the enc
mics of free government.
p. S.-If, in this item. we have
slightly mixed names and dates, the
principle is all there, and it applies
equally to all times, persons and places.

About ten days ago, in a drunken
spree, Hiram Berry, q wealthy citizen
of Frankfort, KY, married a woman
of the town, at Louisville. A few days
afterward the affair leaked out, despite
the endeavors Of all the parties inter
ested to keep it quiet. and, as may be
supposed. it created lamentable sen.
sation in the social circles Of Fra nk fort
owing to the enviable position of the
family Of the groom, whose sons and
daughters are married into the best
families in Kentucky. Barry has been
a widower only three months, his wife
having been most estimable Christian
woman.

Two young men who committed sui
eide in New York city last week.
though unknown to each other, left let
ters behind them, expressing desire
to have their bodies cremated. Their
names were Parthay and Holland. Par
thay, a young German civil engineer,
wrote: 81 don't care for ceremonies:
would prefer burning," while Holland,
q graduate of Oxford, England, said
among other things: Next in order
is my burial; should like to be crema-
ted" The German, Parthay, said he de-
sired his body disposed of cheaply, as he
'would not rob his relatives for the BEN
eft of the undertakers;" and the En-
glishman. Holland, said he did not

pense for his burial. rfhe snaatiiif ,..,...
of the pecuniary business of both Par
thav and Holland were put down and
arranged in the last writing left behind
by each Of them. Both of these men
were anxious to put on record the fact
that they considered themsel veg in a
state of perfect sanity at the time they
perpetrated self murder. Parthay said:
II go calm and without any passion or
fear;" and Holland said II do hope no
one will think me mad" Parthay left
on record his belief i'm the Immortality
of the soul, and Holland his trust in the
future through the goodness of God !.
Parthay said he left the world to get
away from its degrading competition
and to give others more chance; HOl-
said his action was because he could not
attain the object of his life. Holland
bade "GOod-by to the world" and ex-
dressed his gratitude to his friends;
while Parthay with his last words ex-
pressed his contempt for the "liars hypr
ocrite dogs, and our owls Of so-called
modern civilization, where man OF
principle cannot live according to his
conscience" Both of these young men
were of excellent stock, highly educa-
ted, and possessed of talents; yet. by
ending their lives with the highest of
crimes, they died as the fool dieth.

The bill introduced In the House,
Monday, by Mr.. Warner, Of Ohio, au.
thor Of the Warner silver-bill Of the
last session, to arrest the issue Of na-
tional bank notes, will not prove very
acceptable to the national banking In

that there Ii too much money In the

be acceptable to the Eastern banking
interest, for it would stand in the way
of its scheme 70 abolish all kinds Of
money except gold and bank notes.
