WELsHMEN PANIC STRICKEN.

Great Excitement Caused by the Earth
quake Shocks--Not Much Damage.
LONDON, Aug 19.-The shock of an
earthquake Wednesday night caused con-
sternation in Pembrokeshire, the extreme
southwestern county of Wales. People
were generally asleep when low, rum
bling noise was heard, and the houses
rocked and shivered.
In Haverfordwest the rumbling and the
rocking motion were particularly heard
and felt, and hundreds of people, awak-
ened from sleep, rushed out into the
street in their night-gowns, without wait
ing to dress.
Crockery was smashed and furniture
moved by the shaking of the buildings,
which lasted, however, but a few seconds.
The people remained in the streets
panic-stricken. and fearful of more dis
astrous visitation.
After an interval another shock came,
but it was slight, as compared with the
first, and did no damage. There was
another interval, and another shock, also
slight. After some time, as there was no
more sign of seismic disturbance, people
returned into their houses and tried to
sleep.

An Engllsh Parrot Story.

The following parrot story comes from
London. A wel-known bird fancier
had parrot which could repeat many
phrases. One day, being anxious to ex-
hibit his cleverness before some friends,
he several times commanded the bird to
say Uncle" but the parrot would not
repeat it. In his anger he seized the
bird, and half-twisting his neck, ex-
claimed Say uncle, you beggarl" and
threw him in the henhouse, in which
he had ten prize Dorking chickens.
Shortly afterwards, thinking he had
killed the parrot, he went to the pen.
To his surprise, he saw nine of the
fowls dead on the floor with their neclxs
wrung, and the parrot standing on the
tenth twisting his neck and screaming;
"Say uncle, you beggar. say 'unclel {"

HAvERs NOT REcAPTuRED.
No Trace of the Desperate Convict Who
Escaped From Pittsburg.

No Trace of the Desperate Convict Who
Escaped From Pittsburg.
PITTsBURG, Aug. 19.-Charles Havers,
alias Hunter, a prisoner and a notorious
crook, sawed through his cell door at the
Allegheny County workhouse at a. M,
and, after beating and cutting Keeper
Weberhart so that he will die, escaped.
Havers was serving his third term of
imprisonment. Wednesday he played
sick and did not work.
He made saw of an old case knife and
with it cut through his cell door.
Keeper Weberhart attempted to prevent
his escape, and was beaten into insensi-
bility and badly cut with the saw. The
murderous demon then jumped upon him,
trampling his vitals out.
Havers then threw his victim into his
own cell, took the keys, locked the cell
door, and with the keys ,opened his way
to liberty.
The prison officers did not discover the
assault and escape until three hours later.
He has so far eluded the officers.

PECKRAM IS INSANE.
He Surrendered Himself, Saying II
Had Killed the Bordens.

He Surrendered Himself, Saying He
Had Killed the Bordens.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 19.-MedicI
Examiner Dolan and physicians who have
examined Charles II. Peckham, the man
who claims to have killed the Bordens,
pronounce him insane. Peckham is from
Westport, Mass. He walked into the
Central Police station yesterday, and said
to Assistant Marshal Fleet:
"Well, Mr.. Marshal, l killed Mr. and
Mrs Andrew j. Borden and l have come
from home to give myself up. l went
over the back fence and through the rear
door of the Borden house two weeks ago,
and killed both of those people out of
pure love for blood
II went out the rear door and over
the back fence and walked over the New
Bedford road home I'm the murderer
and want to be locked up"
The Marshal took him to the cell room
and searched him. He found a pocket
book with a few receipts in it and also
unearthed some official communications
from the Russian Bureau at Washington.
Peckham is 62 years of age, about q
feet 6 inches tall and has a thin gray
beard. He says he leases a farm from
Edmund Davis. aN..Nxa
w hen asked why ne committed the
crime, Peckham said he had good reasons
for doing it which he did not care to
state.
Mr. Fleet asked him what clothes he
wore and he replied that he wore the
same that he had on.
He was asked if they were not spotted
with blood and he replied no, there were
no spatters because the first blow caused
death and stopped the hearts action. He
said he struck the other blows by way of
precaution.
He then told the Deputy Marshal that
he expected no sympathy and wanted to
be held. He had borne the knowledge of
the crime as long as he was able and now
wanted relief of mind.
Deputy Marshal Fleet further ques-
toned him regarding various particulars
of the tragedy and he answered in u CO.
herent manner.
! Immediately after he was locked up
Mr.. Fleet telephoned the Mayor of New
Bedford for particulars about Peckham.
The Mayor replied that he knew him
very well and that he was in some ways
an eccentric person, but was never
thought to be insane.
He said that Peckham leased small
farm from the Davis estate in Westport,
situated a few miles out of the city OF
New Bedford. Mr.. Fleet also communi-
Gated by telephone with Andrew j. Jen-
nings, attorney for Lizzie Borden.

NASHVILLE, Aug. 19.--Early this morn

BERLIN. Aug 19-The mystery con-
cerning the Emperor's absence from the
dinner given by the officers of the Guards
on Tuesday evening, which he had prom
ised to attend is explained by the fact
that Count Herbert Bismarck and Count
William Bismarck were present. The
Emperor did not learn that they were to
be present until shortly before the even
ing of the dinner. Even the antiBis-
marckians here feel that the Emperor
might have gone, rather than show his
dislike of the Bismarcks through such a
petty SLIGHT.
