VIOLENT SHOCKS.
Details of the Earthquakes in Co.'S
ia Rica-
cities Ruined. Hills Change Places and the
Earth Assumes tho Appearance of n
Rough sea--Pcoplc Tossed
About Like Balls.

PANAMA Feb 4.-The following details
of the recent earthquakes in Costa Rica
are published in the Annunciator Costa
Ricanese: At sp. IN. December 90, while
the inhabitants of San Jose, the Capital,
were preparing to enjoy tho entertain
ments which had been prepared, a strong
shock of earthquake caused general alarm.
At eleven O'Clock another and stronger
shock occurred, leading all to believe
that another would soon follow. For
this reason no one retired to rest Thus
all were awake when at 4:20 a. m. a
movement occurred which was more than
a simple earthquake being really n fear
full cataclysm similar to that of September,
1871, and which did immense damage in
the cities of San jose and Heredia and
the villages of Raba, San Barbara, San
Rafaelde, Heredia, Gracia and Santo
Domingo, and in many smaller hamlets.
The edifices which suffered most in San
Jose were the Cathedral, the Carmen and
MERGED Churches, the Presidential Palace
the Artillery Barracks, the National
Palace, the Central Barracks, the National
Printing Offices and the Union Bank.
1t may be truly said that not a single
house escaped injury, while many are not
safe to live in and others are completely
wrecked. 1t has been necessary to close
the churches and prohibit worship in them.
Whole streets are blocked with ruins. No
trains ran until the bridges were exam
ined and found to be in good order. Loss
es in San Jose amount to more than ST.
900, 900, while all the principal edifices in
Alajucla are damaged. AT La Laguna dis
tant some six miles from here, a most ex-
traordinary geological phenomenon took
place, and the earth has assumed the ap-
pearance of rough sea. The father of q
family and four of his children were bur-
led together, while the mother and her
young child were thrown by tho motion of
the earth distance of one thousand me-
ters, although she declares she believes the
earth swallowed her and then elected her
where she was found. Here the hills have
changed their position, and the ground is
full of cracks.

ADVICE FOR MOTHERS.

IF you say mo" mean "No." Unless you
have good reason for changing q given
command, hold to it.
ALLOW them as they grow older to have
opinions Of their own; make them individ-
uals and not mere echoes.
IF you have lost child, remember that
for the one who is gone there is no more to
do, but for those left, every thing.
RESPECT their little secrets; if they have
concealments, fretting them will never
make them tell, and time and patience will,
Be honest with them In small things as
well as in great. If you can not tell them
what they wish to know, say 80, rather than
deceive them.
FIND out all their special tastes and de-
velop them instead of spending time, money
and patience In forcing them into studies
that are entirely repugnant TO them.
IMPRESS upon them, from early infancy,
that their actions have results, and that
they can not escape consequences even by
being sorry when they have done wrong.
MAKE your boys and girls study philos-
ophy; when they are i'll try and make them
comprehend why and how the complaint
arose, and the remedy, SO far as you know 1t.
MOTHERS, whatever else you may teach
your girls, do not neglect to instruct them
in the mysteries OF housekeeping. So shall
you put them in the way OF making home
happy.

AN EXCURSION SCHEME.
Free Ride in this Country for
Prominent Canadians,
For the Purpose of Enlightening Mem
bers of Parliament as to the Actual
Condition and Resources of the
United States.

CHICAGO. Feb 16.-A local paper says
that the proposed excursion through the
Middle, Southern and Eastern States for
the purpose Of enlightening Canadian
members of Parliament as to the actual
condition and resources of this country, is
to be fact and not a fancy. The matter has
been much discussed in the newspapers of
late. Sir John Macdonald was interroga-
ted regarding it in Parliament last week,
but replied that he had heard nothing Of
it officially. Nevertheless the excursion
has been planned and all the members OF
the Canadian Parliamen will be invited.
1t is expected that about 400 of Her Maj
esty's subjects will accept the invitation,
and about half as many Senators and Con-
gressmen will be asked to do the honors as
guides for the visitors. About May the
proposed excursion will start. Three solid
Pullman trains will leave Suspension
Bridge for Buffalo, where the tour Of in
spection of American cities will begin.
Arrangements will be made in advance
for local chambers of commerce Of kindred
corporations to show visitors every thing
of interest in the cities visited in as brief
and as thorough manner as possible.
The route of the proposed excursion will
be via Buffalo, Cleveland, Pittsburgh,
Chicago, Kansas City, st. Louis, Cincin-
natl, Louisville, Nashville, Atlanta, Birm-
ingham, Decatur, Admission, Richmond,
Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia,
Scranton, Harrisburg, New York, Boston,
Montreal and Ottawa. Arrangements were
made with the Pullman company yester-
day, S. j. Richie, of Akron, o., represent
ing the parties interested in the movement.
Mr.. Ritchie is a large property owner in
Canada and is on intimate terms with the
leading statesmen of that country. He
has been one of the foremost in agitating
commercial reciprocity between the two
countries. He has received the promises
Of many leading Canadian politicians Of
both parties that they would be pleased to
take the trip. The expenses of the excur-
sion will be borne entirely by few gen.
tlemen, unless Congress sees fit to make an
appropriation for the purpose.

NOTES ON NOTABLES.

COMMODORE PRICE, late of Troy, and
father of the Duchess Of Marlborough, cut
Off his titled daughter in his will, leaving
her nothing of his large estate.
SENATOR MORRILL,, of Vermont, has been
In public life longer than any American
now living. He entered the House Of Rep
resentatives thirty-four years ago.
1T is stated that the late Richard A. Proc
tor was once Roman Catholic, and left that
church when told that his scientific beliefs
were heretical and must not be promulgated
in print
DIR. HILL, the only surviving ex-president
Of Harvard, has for hobby the investiga-
ton of the habits Of the lower reptiles, upon

employs three secretaries TO answer the
communications which come from all parts
of the world.
SENATOR ALLISON is q great worker. He
retires early and rises early, eats a simple
breakfast, reaches the Capitol long before
his colleagues, and pegs away at committee
work until noon. He always stays through
the session of the Senate and watches every
move until adjournment He then returns
to committee work until dinner time. He
Is systematic IN his habits, and is thus en-
abled to accomplish vast amount OF work.
He takes plenty Of exercise and seldom in

Emigration Agents Compelled to Leave
the Country-Dctcrmincd to stop tho Ex-
odus of Farm Labor.
CHARLOTTE, N. c., Feb. 10 Trouble has
been threatened for the last few days In
Wayne County, and the local military
companies have been kept ready for SER
vice. Every year there ismore or less OF an
exodus of negroes worked up by emigrant
agents. and this causes serious trouble to
the farmers, who depend on the negroes to
pick their cotton and 40 farm-work. This
year the number of negroes leaving
has been greater than ever, and the
farmers have decided to stand the
emigration agents no longer A tele-
gram from Wayne County brings
the news that nearly all of the white
citizens are armed and fully determined
to stop tho negro emigration. John L.
Richardson, one of the largest of South
ern farmers, who has been in the county
to employ negroes to go to Tennessee, Lou
isiana and Mississippi to work on his
farms, has been made to leave the county.
Other emigrant agents have also been
compelled to leave. AT Goldsboro on
Wednesday fifteen hundred negroes, with
their families, who had sold all their
household goods, were gathered waiting
for these agents to furnish them passage.
They are in such state now that 1T would
take but little to start riot.

TREMENDOUS oRAsH.
Fourtecn-story Building in Course of
Erection Collapscs.t

Erection Coilnpscs.
CHICAGO, Feb. 1s-One of the tallest
office buildings In America collapsed yes
terday morning. A number Of workmen
rushed out just in time to escape being
crushed under the mountain Of wreckage.
The Owings Block is the ruin 1t was
beautiful Gothic structure fourteen stories
high, situated at the corner of Dearborn
and Adams streets, just opposite the post
Office in the center of the business district.
The ten lower stories fell in one after an
other, leaving the walls, four upper floors
and the roof standing in a decidedly shaky
condition. In the tenth story the tile floor
was defective or was damaged by the
natural settling of the building. The
great mass of tile ard girding forming the
injured floor crashed to the story below,
carrying that with 1t, and the two together
acted like huge pile driver, making q
way for themselves to the bottom. About
125 workmen have been steadily engaged
in the building, but yesterday being Sum
day less than dozen were on hand.
All were in the basement, when at
half-past eight an ominous crack
ling and tremendous crash were
heard. No one stopped to in
quire the cause, but rushed pell-mell into
the street. They were not a moment too
soon. A succession of laundering reports,
then one prolonged, mighty din, and each
scurrying, trembling workman was envel-
oped in great uprising cloud Of dust and
broken plaster. Gradually the air cleared
and few Of the harder spirits ventured
back inside, where before story rose above
story east Of the central skylight in math-
ematical precision, and with every appear
ance of colossal strength and dur
ability, now mounted fantastic
heap of debris, while the space
130 feet above was empty, save for
bent and distorted iron beams that here
and there projected from the walls. The
building, which was rapidly approaching
completion, is one Of the finest in the city
from the standpoint of convenience,
strength and architectural magnifcence.
It's upper stories are Of pressed brick, the
three lower of stone The roof was COM
pleted about three weeks ago. The interior
was entirely of tile, supported in place
by massive iron girders The immediate
cause of the collapse was undoubtedly the
giving way of the tile floor at the tenth
story.

INTERNAL FIREBRANDS.
Numerous Barns Burned by Devilish
Contrivance.

Numerous Barns burned Dy DeV"sh
Contrivance.
BALTIMORE, Feb. 15.-The barn of ID.
Henry Rieman, in Adams County, Pa,
near Emmittsburg, Md, was destroyed by
fire of incendiary origin early yesterday
morning. The loss was 81, 900; insured for
1900 in the Agricultural Insurance Com
pany, of Watertown, N. Y. The property
destroyed was in the line Of the dozen or
more barns mysteriously burned recently
on the border of Frederick and Carroll
Counties, Md, and the fire is believed to
have been the work of the same fiends who
have become such terror to the farming
community of that section. The instru-
ment usually used in setting fire to the
barns is the size of two fists and covered
with wet phosphorus. In the center OF
this ball was an opening about the size OF
an egg and filled with powder, into which
was stuck a quill, for the purpose. it is
thought of preventing absorption of moist
ure and thus keeping the powder dry.
This device Is placed in som secluded place
and when the phosphorus dries, ignition
follows and an expl osion of the powder,
which completes the work.

BELLE STAIRS DIARY

Makes Sensational Disclosures, Pointing to
the Innocence of Some and Guilt of 9th
ers in Various Crimes.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. 1S.-Advices from the
Indian Territory say that the journal or
diary of Belle Starr, the noted female
bandit of the Territory, has been OBJ
tanned from the Starr ranch. Belle in
tended to publish it in an autobiography.
Tho matter contained therein is replete
with thrilling incidents Of personal adj
ventures, but the most remarkable features
of all are certain disclosures concerning
crimes in Texas and the Indian Territory
which will tend to prove that innocent
mon have been sentenced on various occa-
sions. 1t is also n matter of curiosity that
the names of prominent persons are con-
nected with certain crimes that have been
committed in recent years. Some of the
sketches in the journal are lively and
humorous.

Chamberlain Weakens.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE effect Of the Gov
ernment's defeat at Govan and elsewhere
in Scotland is apparent in Chamberlain's
speech at Glasgow, where he declared that
unionsm is a forlorn hope unless posi-
tive policy for Ireland supersedes tho
negative one and the Government vies
with radicalreforms in England advocated
by Morley and Gladstone. Chamberlain
suggests free school subsidies and crofter
land purchase bill, England and Scotland
to support the former. He says his Amer
ican experience showed him that the COM
mon school system there is the glory OF
the country.
