BUSINESS STILL SUFFERING FROM
THE GREAT STORM.

Northern Mails Received for Three
Days and Travel Totally Blockaded-
The Western Union Slowly Getting
Back It's Lines-What Last Nights
Signal Bureau Reports Show.
Business is still suffering from the great
storm in the North. No Northern mails
were received yesterday and telegraph COM

ington are got in working order. The
Associated Press reports were received all
right last night. and by tomorrow or next
day it is expected to have the lines working
through to New York.
TIE SIGNAL BUREAUS REPORTS.
The weather here is in marked contrast
70 what it must be North. The Signal
Bureau reports since Sunday have been
very meagre, and only covered the South
Atlantic and a few of the Gulf stations.
Last nights reports, however. were com
plete with the exception of those from New
England ana the extreme Northwest. The
storm is evidently moving off the New
England coast. Warmer weather is pre-
dicted for the entire country. The barom-
et,1c pressure was highest last night over
the Lake region, and the temperature in
that section was the lowest. Reports from
stations on the West Gulf coast were miss
ing with exception of Galveston, which
reported warmer and cloudy weather.
THE WEATHER ON THE COAST.
In the South Atlantic States the weather
is clear and cool. The barometer is above
the normal, being highest over Georgia
Wins have been and are likely to remain
northerly to-day. The weather here will
grow rapidly warmer after tonight Winds
on the Atlantic coast northward from Hat
teras were still high last night. Cape Hat
teras reported velocity of thirty-six miles
an hour. The weather at New York was
cloudy and the temperature was 36' at 10
o'clock. Out of reports received from
forty Seven stations throughout the entire
country not one has reported rain or snow
fall during the eight hours ending at 10
o'clock last night.
LITTLE DAMAGE FROM FROSTs.
Savannah has suffered very little from
the cold The winds have kept off the frosts
to great extent, and the truck crop has re-
ceived very little injury. The pea crop re-
ceived a setback, but growers here console
themselves with the report that the entire
Norfolk crop has been ruined, so that the
two sections will not havo to compete in the
New York and Philadelphia markets.

LITTLE DAMAGE FROM FRosTs
THE EARTHQUAKE DISTRICT"
The Geological Surveys Map of the
Disturbed Section.

The Geological Surveys Map of the
Disturbed Section.
The United States Geological Survey has
completed a map descriptive of the South
Carolina earthquake district The map is
neatly drawn on vellum paper, with ammo
tations and indiceS explanatory of the vari-
Gus parts of the district surveyed.
The three great foci of the earthquake
are: One near Ladson road. one at Dorches-
ter, four miles y est of IIadson road, and the
third about thirteen miles from Charleston
on the Charleston and Savannah railway.
The map is bounded by heavy red lines in
dicating the limit of craterlets, and, there
fore, includes only the territory in which
sand and water were extruded. On the map
are also irregular curves showing the lines
of maximum intensity. One of these lines
is about a half mile below Summerville and
another near Jedburg, about four miles dis
tant from Summervile.
This map, as may be understood. is the
result OF much patient labor at home and
research and investigation in the field. The
area covered is ab-ut 400 square miles.
To accompany the map there will be a
geologic survey of nearly the same terri
tory. Mr. Earle Sloan is now looking
over the ground" but 1t will be some time
before the survey will be completed A
bill will be introduced in Congress asking
for a special appropriation for the work
Such survey would undoubtedly be of
both local interest and scientific value, and
it is expected that the bill asking for the
appropriation will receive all the attention
it deserves.
Not very long ago great many people in
Charleston would have given great deal to
know exactly what they had under their
ground floor for a support. These were the
people who forgot for the moment that i'm
mediately below Charleston there is a solid
depth OF about 5000 miles Of more or less
solid earth. The forthcoming geological
map will give the most valuable infOrma-
ton as to the very exact character of its
solid foundations in stone and mari

MONROVIA.
The Queen city of the Foo
Hills.

The Queen city of the Foot
Hills.
Excepting Whittier, Monroyia is
the youngest of all the towns Of South
ern California Of anything like the
proportions it has already achieved.
1t is not yet twenty-four months since
the first beginning of a town was
made at Monrovia. The present mop
ul alton does not fall much short OF
1000 souls.
Among the cities Monrovia is the
youngest of Los Angeles fair daugh-
ters. 1t is only the other day the
the place was Incorporated. w. N.
Monroe, the founder of the town, is
its first mayor.
!, People wonder how it is that place
could grow up So rapidlJ as this has.
1t must be rememb bered that the pop
ulation of this county is growing at
thu rate OF 10000 a year.
All these people must live sv'ne-
where. The I'D towns will not hold
them all. And Monrovia had a great
many natural advantages. She was
right on the inc of new arsconti-
Mental road. There WAS no town
near to draw away from her. Mon.
rovia is situated in the heart of the
most beautiful valley in the world. She
is at the highest point below the steep
sides OF the mountains. Before
her lies stretch OF the
most matchlessly beautiful landscape
the eve of man ever rested on. And
the land is as rich as it is lovely. A
supply of pure water and plenty OF it
is brought in from the mountains in
large Cement pipes. The climate is
perfection itself.
But nature willie she did much for
this charming spot was not left un-
aided in her efforts to attr ut people
thi her. The eoplewho took MonioJia
in hand to make a town there knew
what they were about. With both
hands they gave their shekrls, and in
unliring continuance to supply the
embryo city with all the belongings
of an attractive settlement. Fine
hotels, fine schools, magnificent
churches, banks, public li"raries--
every imaginable influence calculated
to be of the highest benefit to the
citizens was lavished on the new
place.
Nor has this wonderful era Of devel-
opment come to an end. or given any
signs of hlackness. Still the good
work goes on. Not satisfied with one
railroad second line is now graded
to Los ngeles and will be in opera
ton in a few weeks. 1t comes to this
city in line as the bird flies. 1t is
TO be Rapid Transit road to make
the highest pos -ible rate OF speed and
tosrun trains every half hour.
Monrovia has some two thousand
souls af er two years OF existence. II
at the end OF two more she has nearly
ten thousand, the TACT need not sur
prise any one.
