THE EARTHQUAKE,

For the frst time In the history Of
this portion of the continent an earth
quake has caused a calamity recalling
by Its destruction and its terrors the
doom Of the crumbled cities and en-

THE London Socialists when they at.
tempt to show their strength do it to
son purpose, On Sunday $4,000 of
them assembled In one of the London
quares and listened to speeches, the
most radical declarations being received
with great enthusiasm. Some of the
harangues were fully up to the standard
of those Of the Chicago Anarchists,
which were admitted as evidence of a
murderous purpose at the recent trials
In that city. A Mr.. Champion, an ex-
army officer, gave significant advice
when he warned the people against
collision with the authorities at this
time. They were pOwerless, he said,
against the disciplined forces with which
they would have to contend, and could
do nothing until they had themselves
acquired discipline. He urged the peo-
pie to organize, obtain arms and. learn
to use them and hold themselves In
readiness for the day which would sure
ly come, when 1t would be necessary to
strike for freedom. ALI of the speakers
referred In strong terms of sympathy to
the convicted Chicago Anarchists. This
sort Of freedom Of speech is barely toler-
ated In the United States ut this time.

A MEMBER of the Congressional Dem
0cratic Executive Committee is quoted
az having said, In regard to the chances
Of the party to get control of the United
States Senate after March 4th: "The
newlv elected Senator from California
am Riddleberger, forty-two Senators;
the Democrats thirty-f0ur. Twenty-Five
Senators go out on March 3, 1887. OF
these, sixteen are Republicans and nine'
Democrats. OF the nine Democrats
whose terms expire, there have been al
ready elected, or certain to be elected,
seven, from the States of Delaware, Flor
ida, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri,
Tennessee and Texas. We are nearly
sure of electing one from West Vir-
ginia. This leaves only one Of nine to
be elected, namely, from Nevada, which
Ia likely to go Republican, am afraid.
OF the sixteen Senators to be elected In
place Of Republicans, whose terms ex-
pire In 1887, they are certain to get
eight, from Maine, Massachusetts,, MIN
nesOta, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, Rhode
Island, Vermont and Wisconsin. That
leaves In my calculation seven doubt
full Republican seats, from California,
Connecticut, Indiana, Michigan, New
Jersey, New York and Ohio. We have
already elected a Democrat from Vir-
ginia to succeed Malone. So you see
we have a fair show to carry the next
Senate. If We Eold our present repre-
sentation together, with the gain of one
from Virginia, we will only have to
carry three Of the doubtful seven to make
q tie. II Is close, but hopeful"

SIMULTANEOUSLY with the announce
meut nat the Pope has given Way to
the French government on the subject
Of the representation OF the interests Of
the church in the far East comes the
news that a general rising is taking
place in Southern China, and that, un-
deferred by the government, the insur-
gents are exterminsting all the Euro
peans and native converts in the cOun-
try. Only q short time ago the Chinese
Empress Regent gave the Vatican to un-
derstand very plainly that the status
quo must absolutely cease, otherwise
the Chinese authorities could not be re-.
spOhsible for possible outbreak of pop
ular fanaticism. Up to the present
time the interests of the Church In
China have been exclusively in the
hands Of the French diplomatic repre-
sentstiVes, who used them on all posi-
BILE occasions for political purposes.
The French Government claimed that
every native who was converted to
Catholicism became ipse facto French
subject, and as such not only exempt
from taxation, but even independent Of
the Chinese tribunals. This designa-
tiOn not only of missionary but even of
convert became synonymous with the
word "Frenchman," and during the re-
cent Franco Chinese difficulties, when
the native feeling ran so high against
France, Christians OF all denominations
suffered in consequence.

land, and ran into quiet feet of Amer
ican schoOners engaged In hauling up
mackerel two miles off shore. She cor
rallied the Highland Light of Wel!fleet,
and escorted her to port. This is the
first seizure yet made where the viola
tiOn of treaty stlpulatlons appears open
and clear. The captain of the seized
vessel admits he has no defense. At the
same time Sir Charles Tupper, Canada's
Fish Commissioner, who has just re-
turned from Great Britain, makes the
official announcement that the Imper-
ial Government intends to loan Canada
few big iron-Olads to help the cruisers

GENERAL Neal Dow is the most re-
merkable man of his age in America.
He Is more than eighty-two years of age,
yet he speaks nearly every day, some-
times twice and three times a day,
travels thousands of miles every week,
eats heartily, sleeps we'll, and walks as
briskly as young man. His hair and
whiskers are white, but his head is not
bald. His teeth are as white as milk,
and his face has hardly wrinkle In 1t.
For vigor and ability to do hard work he
is superior to most men of fifty years.
He says he was born of a long lived
family of Quakers, who led quiet lives.
To this kind of bringing up and free
DON from the use Of ardent spirits, be
attributes his vigor, and sees no reason
why he may not live twenty years
longer.

THE story of social affair in the City

lively details most probably the fabric
Of the brain Of an imaginative corres-

Record. 1t is only another attempt to
bring the State Department into dis.
credit with the country. Since this
Administration came into power Its DO
litical enemies have spread abroad all
sorts of reports In regard to Its leading
officials. Secretary Bayard and the new
diplomatic representatives of the gov
ernment have been the especial objects
of malignant assault. The object of
this warfare is to impress the country
with the belief that the Democratic
party does not possess statesmen of
sufficient ability and experience to con.
duct the foreign affairs of the Govern
ment. The nOnsensical notion Is indus
trlOusly circulated that only the party
OF Blaine, EVaFts, and Fish is capable
Of producing great diDlOmatists and ne
