NATURE CONVULSED.

Seven Earthquake Shocks on the
South Pacific Coast.
There have been several shocks of earth
quake recently in Valparaiso, Arico, Pacna
aud Serena, but the most alarming have
been at Iquique, Of which the GILLIAN Times
says:
"The first shock occurred at 2:4O A. 81, and
it was an unusually heavy one. Buildings
were shaken in an ominous manner Five
minutes after the first earthquake slight
shock occurred, and ten minutes after the
second third was felt The third was fol-
lowed later on by two slight, but very distinct
shocks, and it is believed that continuous tre-
NOR, lasting for several hours might
have been detected with proper instruments.
To add to the alarm, the sea was extraordi-
narily agitated, and persons residing near the
beach, and more especially those living at the
Puntilla, left their beds and watched the fu-
rious waves as they broke on the shore, and
the fear of an irruption of the ocean was up
permost in everybody's mind. The agitation
OF the sea continued, with gradually decreas-
ing violence, throughout the next day until
nightfall, when it became calm

What the Forehead Reveals.

An observer sends the following to
lid Bits: A very retreating forehead
which is low and shallow usually accom-
panies want of intellect. If slightly re-
treating, or what appears to be retreating
from the fullness of the forms over the
eyes, it signifies imagination, susceptible
ity, wit, and humor.
Slow persons, with dull intellect, have
very projecting foreheads.
PERPENDICULAR foreheads, rather high,
and we'll rounded at the temples, rarely
fail to 90 with solid understanding,
powers Of concentration, apd love of
study.
A low, arched forehead which IS full
at the temples is indicative of sweetness
and sensitiveness, and when combined
with great fullness over the eyes, gives
an unreasonable, idealistic nature.
High, narrow, wholly unwrinkled fore
heads over which the skin is tightly
drawn, show weakness Of will power,
and lack of imagination or susceptible
ity.
Forchcads not entirely projecting, but
having knotty protuberances, give vigor
of mind, and harsh, oppressive activity
and perseverance.
Persons possessing poetic, ardent, and
sensitive natures not infrequently have q

open, smooth, and low forehead.

Pasteur and the Mad Dogs.

A writer in a Paris publication says:
''Biting dogs and bitten dogs fill the
laboratory. Without reckoning the
hundreds of mad dogs that have died
in the laboratory during the last three
years, there never occurred a case of
hydrophobia in Paris of which Pasteur is
not informed. Not long ago veterinary
surgeon telegraphed him: Attack at its
heig ght in poodle dog and bull dog.
Come Pasteur invited me to accompany
him and we started, carrying six rabbits
with US in basket. The two dogs were
rabid to the last degree. The bull dog
especially, an enormous creature, howled
and foamed in it's cage. A bar of iron
was held out to him; he threw himself
upon it, and there was great difficulty IN
drawing it away from his bloody fangs:
Zone of the rabbits was then brought
near the cage, and its dropping ear was
allowed to pass through the bars: But,
notwithstanding this provocation, the
dog flung himself down at the bottom OF
his cage and refused to bite. Two
youths then threw a cord with slip
loop over the dog as lasso is thrown.
The animal was caught and drawn to the
edge of the cage. There they managed
to pet hold of him and secure his jaws,
and the dog, suffocating with fury, his
ewes bloodshot, and his body convulsed
with a violent spasm. was extended upon
a table and held motionless, while Pas
teur, leaning over his foaming head at the
distance of fingers breadth, sucked up
into narrow tube some drops Of saliva
In the basement of the veterinary sur
geon's house, witnessing this formidable
tete-a-tete, I thought Pasteur grander
than had ever thought him before"

A DISASTROUS FIRE.
A Million Dollars Worth Of Prop
erty in Detroit Gone.

A Million Dollars Worth Of Prop
erty in Detroit Gone.
The most destructive fire that has occurred
in Detroit in a score of years broke out the
other morning in the seed store and ware
house of D. NJ Ferry G. Co., which occupied
one-half the block, bounded by Croghan and
LAFAYETTE streets, east of Randolph. Smoke
was seen issuing from window at about 9
o'clock and an alarm was sounded The ire
department was on the ground promptly, and
the men found the upper part OF the building
full of dense smoke, which seriously interfered
with every attempt to locate the fire. The
breaking Of windows to run in hose furnished
asufficient draft to kindle the Smotherd flames,
which at once broke out in great fury. The
entire contents of the building were as inflam-
mable as tinder and burned as rapidly. From
one end to the other it seemed to iniiame at
once. The crowds fell back before the intense
heat and the firemen were driven away from
their posts. Water seemed to have no effect on
the flames In one hours time the walls OF
the south half of the building had fallen IN.
The north half was shut off by q heavy brick
wall. with openings closed by double iron
doors. So powerful was the heat that these
were twisted from their fuStenings and the
flames swept into that half OF the structure
and in half an hour more that was gone.
The fire then spread across an alley and
communicated to Whites theatre. the largest
and most complete structure of the kind III
the city, which fronts on Randolph street,
and this was soon destroyed. Several ad-
iacent single stores in the block followed, so
80 that finally all entire square was swept
clean, with the exception OF one small brick
structure.
This was the busiest season Of the year for
Ferry g. Co. Their building was full from
TOP to bottom of material already sorted and
packed for shipment Their loss is, as near
as can be estimated $3.50, 900 on building and
stock, on which they have all insurance OF
S43O.UO. =.
The loss on Whites theatre is estimated at
about s125OO0. The building originally cost
s15. 600, but large amount OF additional ex-
pense has been put on the premises. The
Stage properties, scenery, ETC., were very
complete. All the contents, with slight
exceptions, were destroyed. William ID.

street side of the burned block belonged to
the estate of the late E. a. Brush, and were
worth $4,000. They are fairly insured

THE INDIAN PROBLEM.
How General Sheridan Proposes to
Settle the Question.

How General Sheridan Proposes to
Settle the Question. s
In response to request for additional in
formation explanatory Of the recommends
tions of his last annual report in regard to
the Indian question, Lieutenant General
Sheridan has written statement in which he
says: .. 5t.
In my annual report for 1885 recommends
ed that each Indian family be given (and
located upon the 320 acres now provided for,
them by law in case of actual settlement;
that the government then condemn the re-.
mainder Of each reservation and buy it in at
$l.2j per acre, and with the proceeds
purchase government bonds, to be held in
trust by the interior department.,
giving to the Indians each year the interest
on the bonds for their support. cited in
illustration Of what would be The practical
workings of this suggestion the case Of the
Crows, the Cheyennes and Arapahoes and the
Utes, but the limit Of my report did not per-
init full, elucidation OF the advantages that
would accrue to the Indian nor even an al
lusion to the large amount OF land now lying
idle that would thereby be opened to settle
ment and increase by 50 much the material
prosperity Of the nation.
The Indian reservations of the United
States contain about 1000 square miles;
their population is about 26O, 600. Twentysix
thousand square miles would locate each fam
ily upon half section OF land, leaving sur
plus of about 10000 square miles, which, ac-
cord;ng to the plan have proposed, would
produce annually 81 ,O00 This amount
exceeds by about S66O, 900 the entire sum ap-;
propriated for the payment Of their annuities
and Tor their subsistence and civilization
The policy advocated in my report would
be most adVantageously applied gradually,
the general government OF the Indians being
continued according to the methods now in
vogue, or such improvement Of them as time
and experience may suggest. The ultimate
development of the suggested policy would,
as the Indians advance in civilization and in
telligence, result in the return to them OF the
principal derived from the sale OF their Lands;
which. until such measures were authorized
by act Of Congress, would be held as trust
for their benefit and the income applied to
their support s

For years past there have been annually

and in the power of endurance, they are
decidedly inferior to the inhabitants OF

A DAY WITH PASTEUR,
Six Dog-Bitten Americans Inoculated
Against Rabies.

Six Dog-Bitten Americans Inoculated
Against Rabies.
A special cable dispatch from Paris to the
New York Herald describes as follows scenes
in the laboratory of NJ. Pasteur, the scientist
whose discovery Of cure for hydrophobia
has created such sensation through hout the
civilized world:
Another dog-bitten citizen of New Jersey
Edward Bucklin, fifteen years of age-Gr-
rived to-day at the laboratory in the Rue
dUlm and received his first incubation at
II 80. He makes the sixth American treated
by NJ. Pasteurup to date. Kaufman is doing
we'll and NJ Pasteur says he may start for
home on Saturday. Sattler now says he
doesn't want to be inoculated.
While M. Pasteur was supervising the in
oculations to-day two kilograms were hand
ed to him. Tearing one of them open he
exclaimed, Its from America" 1t proved
stitute in New, York, and asked if NJ. Pas
teur would receive medical man who knew
French to study in his laboratory and learn
his methods.
As NJ. Pasteur handed me the telegram he
said: ''rhese gentlemen are in too much OF
hurry It. is premature to attempt anything
vet. Wait until we see how the cases
already treated turn out Wait until
we see how the Newark children get
along. Wait at least until March, when
the series of experiments already commenced
will enable me to make known facts and data
much more specific and detailed than any
thing yet published OF course l feel very
much tiattered to hear that Americans have
thought fit to give my name to the institute,
but in the pure interests Of science delay is
needed. as everything so far is merely ex-
perimental.n
NJ Pasteur then opened the second dis
patch. This was from farmer at Aire-s,lr-
fAdour. in the Department OF the Landes,
announcing that u mad shepherd dog had at
tackled him and sixty COWS, biting very
large number Of the latter. The dog, which
was undoubtedly mad, was killed. The
farmer begged NJ. Pasteur Or an assis-
tant to come to Aire and inoculate the
whole herd l asked NJ. Pasteur, ''How do
You propose to answer this telegram" NJ.
Pasteur said: st is impossible for ME or all
assistant to go there, and for the COWS to
come here is impracticable My laboratory,
as you see, is too small even to hold the score
of patients that come here every morning, to
say nothing of sixty COWS"
Five new patients then entered the labolu-
tory. One of them was Il shoemaker. az
conlpanicd by his wife, who asked, After
my husband was bitten [ sucked the wound
with my mouth. Must be inoculated also"
NJ Pasteur said, mo, it is not necessary
and as the woman was poor, he gave her
twenty francs to go home with.

A triple wedding ring is worn by a
lady in Richmond, Va. 1t was placed
on her finger by her husband recently, on
the celebration of their golden wedding.
The pair were married in 1885, and the
lady then wore an ordinary wedding
ring. In 1860, when the silver wedding
was approaching, the husband took OIL
the ring and had second ring welded
to it, which he placed on her finger on
the anniversary. This year the golden
wedding was to be celebrated, and the
double ring was removed and sent to a
jeweler to have third gold circlet at
tached. This the husband placed on his
wife's finger, and she now wears 1t
proudly as mark of her husbands love.
She is not any more his wife now than
she was when she wore the single hoop,
but it is easy to understand the old lady's
delight in the renewal of the pledge
which each added circlet symbolizes.

Montreal is to have a bigger ice palace
than ever this year. 1t is 152 feet long
and 144 feet wide. The palace has
already been vaccinated. The principal
feature is the great donjon tower, which
rises nearly in the center. 1t is to be
thirty-three feet in diameter and some
thing over one one hundred feet If
height. At each angle of it rise ma
chicolated towers, three of eight feet in
diameter and one of eleven feet. The
ice castle of 1885 was 100 feet in length
and 100 in width. The main tower was
about 100 feet in height, and the sup
porting towers were respectively thirty
eight and forty-four feet in height. St.
Paul Castle is to be built in large
square, and a skating and curling rink
are to be formed within its walls.

There is a man in South Lewiston,
Maine, who is "a years old. Last winter he
lost the use of an eye, but did not dis
cover it until spring. He went into the
field, one day in spring time, and noticed
that things looked passing strange. He
clapped his hand to one eye, and blank
darkness ensued. One eye was totally
blind, and the strangest part of all is
that it had not panied him, and he had
not known it before.

A Western newspaper tells story of q
doctor whose watch stopped as he was
feeling the pulse of patient. The pa
tient died. Some time afterward the
doctor was again feeling the pulse OF a
patient, and again the watch stopped,
and the patient died. A third patient,
seeing the doctor about to take out his
watch, cried, "Don't pull that on me''
but too late. The watch stopped, and
the victim expired. 1t is question, OF
course, whether all these patients would
not have died if the watch had kept on
going, but the community in which the
doctor labored were not willing to test
the matter in their own persons, and the
doctor, after the third coincidence, found
himself without practice.
