n Great Earthquake.

There was a great earthquake through
out Spain last week, causing incalcnlable
destruction of property and the loss of
thousands Of lives. So far as heard from.
over fifty towns and villages have been
violently shaken and left wholly or partly
IN ruins by the long-sustained earthrock-
ing. Velez Malaga, a town of $1,000
sonls, was left in ruins at the end of fifty
seconds. Two converts were shaken down
and almost every house in the place has
fallen or exhibits great cracks aud fissnres
in its walls. The loss of life has been
fearful. A survivor says that the shock
seemed 10 rise up Il foot and sink aud rise
again. He was on the Plaza at the time
and Was Knocked Ia the ground. The
crash Of the falling buildings followed al
most instantly upon the indescribable
rumbling in the bowels of the earth. He
saw one spire topplc ever, the bells i'll it
raging ar they rocked TO and fro before
falling with the tower. The cries of the
people coald scarcely be heard amid the
din. Ii seemed AT first To him that vast
body of steam had arisen from the earth
and then that dense cloud had suddenly
come down from the heavens, but it proved
to be dense cloud Of dry dust that had
arisen like smoke above the tOppled and
fallen houses. He lay rs he fell for some
lao sn1 nd ma
dust blew oil or settled. Then the horri
BILE extent of the disaster met his eye.
Shrieks and groans came from the fallen
buildings. A crowd had rapidly gathered
on the Plaza and acted most extravaganza
ly. Men, women and children screamed
aloud to heaven on their knees, kissing
crucifxes or scapulars, or else tore their
hair aud called on their fathers, mothers
or relatives. One woman went staring
mad and danced until she fell fainting.
Ia about an hour some of the authorities
appeared and the search fOT the dead and
wounded began. It was continued as fast
as volunteers could be secured, but this
was not easy, MS slight shocks were felt at
intervals and each time the earth trem-
bled the workers would throw down their
implements and run. At night the houses
were deserted aud the people camped
around bonfres up the sleeps of the noun
tains that looked down on the town. The
story of Velez Malaga is that of Il score OF
other places.

WHAT WILL THEY DO?

This question is asked in reference To-
Jefferson members i'm the House of Dele
gates on the question of submitting the
Prohibition Amendment to the vote of the
people. IL is, we are glad to say, not
hard to answer il quite definitely. The
people of Jefferson county have been con-
graduated by other portions of the State
upon the wisdom of their choice of men
10 represent them. Ihey have two geD-
tlemep who will reflect credit upon the
people who sent them to the Legislature,
men who have something like proper
sense of their responsibility to the people
whom they represent. We know Preston
Chew aud Dan Lucas well, and We do not
believe that they can he bought, or bull
d0ze6, or intimidated, or cajolel by the
LIQUOR interest We dn not believe that
they will defeat the emphatic will of the
people. We believe that they are men of
sufficient intelligence to realize thai by
such an act they will richly deserve, and
most certainly receive, tue p'tt'i CAUGHT
tons of the great mass of The good people
of this community. They will certainly
do their duty in this respect. no matter
what their private opinions may be on the
subject, or how much they may love
whisky. The temperance hosts are train
ing for an unrelenting war upon the rum
suckers. Things have gone too far now;
there can he no compromise in this con-
troversy The question briefly stated is
this: Are we a free people, or are we III
state of hopeless bondage to the saloon
kern.rsS When the voters of Jefferson
county look that question sqnarely in The
face they will not he long in making mp
their minds what To do.

Mr.. EDITOR: Mrs. Myra e. Boggr,
wife OF Balus S, Boggs, dropped dead
yesterday at noon at the resideece of
her mother, Mrs. Nancy Jones, in

had been in bad health for some

SO near On yesterday she said she
was better than common, and was
assisting in preparing the dinner,
when she heard her baby that had
been left in the house asleep, cry out,
she went in haste to it. Her
husband and DIR. j.. M. Crenshaw,
who happened to be on visit to the
family, returning from a stroll in the
field, found her lying on the floor,
just as she had fallen. She was
raised at once and placed upon the

her, but she never spoke, and was
dead in two or three minutes. Mrs.
Boggs was about % years old, and
was for seven years past consistent
