Another Earthuuakc.

Friday night Palatka and vic'n',y was
visited with another earthquake, and,
during the night, three distinct shocks
were felt, from 10 to o'clock. The first
shock was felt just after 10 o'clock, and
was more distinct 20 the WI IT than was
the shock of Tuesday night last. We

time, listen 1g to what the sad waves

assured by several parties on the street
that the shock WAS "A creation of our own

and thereby lost good item. 1t was the
same way with a large number of other
people who felt it and at ributed it all to

There was no general alarm feel. in the
city on the occasion of the first shock,
but numbers of people We're reused from
their beds when the houses began their
peculiar swaying motion. Some few
people claim that the shock was accom-
panied by low rumbling noise. and
parties from East Palatka and st. Aug

was a more severe shock than the first
one.

l. HARKINS billiard, ESQ, State Agent
Mutual Life Insurance Company of
New York:
DEAR SIs-I desire, through you, to
thank the Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany of New York for the promptness
with which they paid over to me the
sum of Ten Thousand Dollars, that be-
ing the amount for which the life of my
late husband, John X. StrOus, was in
sured in your company. Though only
insured for the short space of eight
months, they paid the entire sum before
the expiration of sixty days. which is
seldom done. l cannot find words to
express my feelings of gratitude t. you
for inducing my husband to take out "a
policy, thereby providing for myself. his
aged mother, and four little children.
l hope you may succeed in persuading
every married man in taking apolicy,
so that if it should please Providence to
call the father and husband, he could
die easier, knowing he was not leaving
his helpless family depending on stran-
gers.
Sincerely wishing the Mutual Life In
surance Company of New York all the
success it deserves, l am yours, most re-
spectfully, MARGARET j. STRoUs.

George Bancroft's passion for roses Is no
torious and it seems To increase rather than
diminish with each year OF his life He makes
it a rule to get to his Newport cottage before
June in order to watch the budding and
blooming of his favorire flowers. He has more
than go bushes in his rose garden, and he
loves them as if they We're his children. By
June - his garden is in a regal luxury of
blossoms and fragrance, and he usually re-
ceives ON that day. Nothing gives him sin
cerer pleasure than the expressed admiration
Of friends and acquaintance for his floral
treasures. When any one has a botanical
understanding of roses he is delighted, and
will talk with him by the hour. He has been
enamored of them, he says, since childhood,
and he admits that the direct way to his heart
Is through his beds of roses.-New York
