exhibit Mr.. Cleveland's record as be-
ing this in substance: 1t is the record
of an official who pursued a vacillating
course; who betrayed the cause of civ
il service reform; who did the right
thing at the wrong time; who erected
a personal administration of his own;
who ignored the wishes of the major
ity of the people and of tried and true
party leaders; who treated his cabinet
officers as though they were SO many
clerks; who cruelty snubbed the De-
mocracy of New York city; who COM
mitted preposterous blunder in his
choice of collector for the country's
chief port; who played into the hands
of those representing "the most cor
rupt phase of municipal administra
ton since Tweed;" who brought
''shame and decentralization to his
party by ''his scheme of parties with
out partisanship and politics without
politicians, ostensibly enforced in one
state to be conspicuously violated in
another. "-Phgnir.

When President Lincoln was con-
fronting some of the darkest prob
lens of the war and Gen. Harrison
was marching to the sea, where was
Mr.. Adlai E. Stevenson, democratic
candidate for the vice presidency?
He was stumping every county of Hi
nois against Lincoln, on a platform
which declared that the war was a
failure and called for the immediate
cessation of hostilities.

John w. Foster, who succeeds MIR.
Blaine as Secretary of state, is man
in the prime of life and familiar by re-
cent experience with the work of the
department which is now placed in
his charge. DuringIthe absence of Mr..
Blaine he had much of the burden of
office on his shoulders and his nomi-
nation will be taken as evidence that
his course was satisfactory to the
President. To the public at large he
has been best known through his for
mer diplomatic service as minister to
Mexico, Russia and Spain. He served
calamity through the war and after
wards edited a news paper at Evans
vile, before the appointment to his
first mission. He is a lawyer by pro-
fession and graduate of the Harvard
Law school.

THOUSANDS LOST.
Enormous Amount of Damage by
the California Earthquake.
A Great Many Towns Affected, M.
merous Buildings Being Destroyed
No Loss of Life.
IT WAS RUINOUS.

SAN Francisco, April s1.-Latest re-
ports from yesterdays seismic disturb
ance show that its results, while seri-
Gus, are not so disastrous as at first re-
ported. 1t was peculiar In one respect,
indicating that the cyclonic principle
had been grated on the old-fashioned
earthquake. The vibrations began
from southwest to northeast, suddenly
shifting in long waves from south to
north. The tremor lasted in varying
degrees of intensity for about an hour.
Many Towns Affected.
The greatest damage was done in the
Sacramento valley, and the area sub
jected to the shock was about a miles
wide by so miles long, including Solano,
Yolo and Sacramento counties. In Vaca-
vile, which was at first reported to
have been totally destroyed, the dam
age is variously estimated at from S50,-
900 to $500, 900, but the latter figure is
probably more nearly correct. On
Main street, the center of the
business section of the town,
nearly all the best buildings were
injured. and on the Odd Fellows
hall alone, which is total wreck, the
loss is estimated at $12, ZOO. A lawyer
who was asleep in the building at the
time only received a few slight
bruises, and there were many
other escapes equally remarkable.
The towns affected, SO far
as reported, are Dixon, Winters, Vaca-
vile, Monticello, Elmira, Fairfield,
Santa Rosa, Woodland, Davisville,
Benicia, Grass Valley, Mercer, Stock
ton, Nevada, Nicolaus, Auburn and
Chico.
Extent of the Damage.
The town of Monticello, II miles
from Winters, was first reported totally
demolished, but gentleman arrived
from there late Tuesday afternoon
and reported the damage nominal
The losses at Vacaville owing to
the destruction of buildings and
other property are estimated at $780,
600, at Dixon S50,OO0 and at Winters
from $4,000 to 100000. Elmira, Fair
field, Santa Rosa, Woodland, Davisville
and Benicia report windows and crock
cry broken and a number Of chimneys
overturned. Some thirty or forty towns
report trifiing damages, though all &C
counts agree in placing the intensity of
the shock as greater than Of any m re-
cent years.
More Shocks.
SACRAMENTO, Cal, April 21.-At sos
o'clock a. m. another heavy shock Of
earthquake visited here, lasting about
six seconds. The vibration was from
north and south.
STOCKTON, Cal, April 21.-At 2:05 q,
m. two light shocks of earthquake were
felt in this city. They lasted hardly
more than couple of seconds and were
not felt by many persons.
DIXON, Cal, April 21.-This place
was again shaken by three distinct
shocks of earthquake-one at o'clock,
one at 4 o'clock and another at $50
o'clock a. m. They were all of short
duration.
BENICIA, Cal, April 21.-A few min
utes after o'clock a. m. another shook
Of earthquake was felt. 1t was Of
short duration, but was hard enough to
awaken many people.

CARLEToN.-A large audience greet.

Tuesday evening, to listen to his recita
tive lecture, embracing many of his old
and new poems. His effort was not a
lecture. but a connecting together of
many Of his own poems in a drama OF
human life, and was highly enjoyed.
He has a mannerism about his racitals
that is studiously odd and capricious
and seems to be introduced for its nov
city without adding any charm to the
sweet homely poems thus manipulated.
There was no oratory-no attempt at
any-no need for any. 1t was pleas
ure to see and hear a man who has
touched so many hearts by a chaste
sympathetic recasting in poetry Of the
commonplace things of life, and itG
simple, every day sentiments, and this
was enough. He was under the aus
pices of the First M. E. church.

n Colored Quack Murders Man Who
Disputed His Bill for Services.
QUINCY, Ill, April 21. Charles Aaron,
sAn of John Aaron, an old and promi-
nent farmer who lives about a mile
northeast of Cliola, Q miles from here,
was shot and killed Tuesday morning,
by w. ]. Jamison, a negro who had
been known as DIR. Smith and who
clat~ued $500 for treatment of Charles
Aaron's mother for cancer. Turn
ing from the body of the dy-
ing man the murderer present
ed his revolver at the fathers
head and threatened to blow his brains
out unless he wrote a check for the
amount. The old man did so and the
Aend took the paper and left. The
wounded man died about $50. Jamison
had been stopping at the house for
over a month pretending to treat Mrs.
Aaron for q cancer in her face, his treat
ment of course proving unavailing.
Meyers, the hired hand, at once rode to
Fowler, about three-quarters of a mile
distant, giving the alarm as he few and
sent DIR. Vowels to attend the wounded
man. The police here were notified by
wire and Sheriff Vancil and officers
were Immediately sent out to assist the
posse in capturing the murderer.
But before the arrival of the
Quincy officers the citizens and
farmers of Cliola and Fowler had
run their man down at Isaac
Vooris' house, half mile south of Eu'
bank. Jamison was wounded and
worn out and ran into Vooris' house to
surrender. In the running fight fully
fifty shots were exchanged between the
fugitive and his pursuers, and twenty
of these were fred by Jamisen from his
large revolver, which he reloaded while
running Constable Long raised
q Winchester and ordered the
murderer to surrender. Jamisor
fired three shots at the constable, wher
Long fred from his Winchester eight
times, one bullet taking effect in Jami
sens left hand and the other entering
his hip. The prisoner was brought tc
this city on freight train and turneC
over to the sheriff, who removed hin
to the county Jail, where his wounds
were dressed. Jamison is wanted II
