SAN DIEGO, Cal, Feb. 24-It is learned
that Joaquin Miller, poet of the Sierras,
has cut his flowing locks, which haven't
felt shears since Miller shared with the
Jersey Lily the homage Of the London
fashionable world ten years ago, and has
renounced civilization and authorship.
The story goes that Joaquin was much
cut up over the recent conviction and sen
tence TO San Quintn of his young son
Harry, who robbed stage coaches in
northern California. Harry's story of the
poets neglect of his offspring was widely
circulated, and the boys utter contempt
for his father evidently penetrated even
JoaQuin's armor OF conceit. Comments
Of the press on his conduct weren't flatter.

by the disgrace which he says has been
brought on his name by the boys mis-
deeds
At any rate the poet went TO San Diego
recently, aud while there the Press League
and their guests visited the city. Miller
was shocked that he was not invited to see
the party, and especially TO pay his respects

many attentions when he was in Londors
and who. it was said, at one time favored
mis- evident love for her.
so few days ago Joaquin surprised
some of his old friends at San Diego. by
appearing shorn of his abundant locks and
without the ill-fitting suit OF black broad
cloth which he usually affected. He wore
blue flannel shirt and his pants were
tucked in his boots.
He said in reply TO astonished inquiry
that he had secured a hermitage in the
mountains back of San Diego where he
wouldn't see the face of man, and he pro.
posed to renounce civilization. He said

wrote gossip about his habits. He was
weary OF the world and its tattle, and
thought in his new mountain home he
might write enough to obtain subsistence
He would never again send out anything
under his own name.
He has now disappeared, and his friends
are speculating how long his misanthropc
fit will last, and where he has set Is

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
Hearing on this Question in the State
House To-day.

House To-dsy.
A hearing was given by the House COM
mittee on special legislation, in the Senate
Chamber to-day on the Woman Suffrage
question. Lawyer T. C. Peirce spoke in
favor OF the passage of an act conferring
presidential suffrage on women. 1t is in
the power of the General Assembly he
said to pass such an act and it is the duty
of each State to make it legal for women
10 vote for presidential electors. He cited
speeches Of many statesmen favoring the
equal rights.
Women are citizens as well ms men, they
are taxed, they are interested in the elec-
tions OF chief magistrate why then are
they disfranchised? The constitution
will not have TO be amended, the legisla
ture can vote to pass an act providing for
the rights of women to vote.
Mr.. Peirce instanced Wyoming which
has recently been admitted to the union
with Woman Suffrage clause in its con-
stitution. Many other States allow
women to vote on certain questions.
Mr.. peirce closed by introducing Henry
B. Blackwell, a representative Of the Ma
tional Woman Suffrage Association, who
said that either great party has IL in its
power 20 elect its candidates without the
possibility OF doubt by enfranchizing
women. He spoke of the effect of en-
all of them voted with the party who
brought about this result and asked if
women were supposed to be less grateful
than the negroes.
Mr.. Blackwell made strong plea on
the ground that Wyoming out of all the
Western States sent back solid delega-
ton for the Republican party. because the
Republican party had enfranchised its
women.
Mrs. Anna Garlin Spencer said that she
would not give bail for the women as TO
which way they would vote. She ask ed
the Legislature TO accede, not give
TO the women the rights which should be
theirs. This matter would, IL tried, be
test OF the political interest Of women. Ii
had been claimed that women, perhaps,
would not care 20 vote, but questions
would develop which would settle this
matter. Women have a feeling of moral
responsibility for public affairs
Other speakers to-day were Mrs Jean
ettee ;. French and Mrs. Delaney of the
Pawtucket League and Isaac s. Turner,
sf'resident OF the Prohibition Club. The
hearing was then adjourned TO Thursday,
Marcn 3, on the rising Of the House, i'm
order to give others who were not able TO
be present to-day chance to appear.

routed the people out of bed at ll:l4 last
night. The movement began at that time
and, contrary to usual experience, con-

so much that guests in hotels and fam lilies
in private houses were awakened from
sound sleep and rushed into the street in
their night clothes. The shock lasted so
long that people had time to descend from
the third and fourth stories and look
back and see the buildings still swaying.
A loud rumbling accompanied the motion,
but no damage was done. The shock was
