IT WRECKED THIS TOWN.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, April 18.-A special
to the Bee from Dixon says: "The earth
quake early this morning did considerable
damage in Dixon, and was accompanied by
fire; the Masonic hall, a fine two-story
brick building on Main street was so Sc
verely damaged that it will have to be
taken down. The walls are so badly
cracked and bulged out in all directions
that they cannot possibly stand The
cracks in some places are several inches
wide. John Dugan's dry goods store, also
a brick building, crushed in; its falling
south wall fell on the Mason building,
while the north fire wall of the building
fell on ]. Rockford's brick butcher shop,
completely crushing it in. To add to the
horrors Of the situation. at this juncture
fires broke out in John Dugan's and Brown
and Clemens. stores. Ghesf flames were soon
extinguished, but not until con-
siderable damage had been done,
especially in Dugan's establishment,
The north fire wall of Bppinger & Co.'S
brick corner of Main and B streets, fell on
an adjoining frame saloon, owned by John
Rehneke, crushing the light frame like an
egg shell, and severely injuring Mr.. Keh-
neke. The old Blum building was badly
wrecked, the walls being cracked ana
bulged out The fire walls, both in front
and back, of the Ross building, fell in, do
ing considerable damage. All the fire
walls on the north side Of the old Corner
saloon building, corner Main and streets,
broke and fell, crushing and destroying the
porch. All the buildings in town having
brick chimneys report some damage,
nearly all being cracked, while sew
eral were thrown down. The goods
in nearly all the stores were thrown
from the sheyes and counters while
all over town doors were wrenched and
torn from the hinges, being thrown into
the street or into buildings. All the pri-
vate residences report damage to crockery
and bric-a-brac, Mr.. Ross, one of the suf-
ferers, states that the loss on his buildings
alone will be not less than Sis, 900 or $40, ,O00
Probably the heaviest @ at loser in the city is

Early in the Morning.
SAN Francisco, April 19 9.-An unusually
heavy earthquake shock was felt here
shortly before three O'Clock this morning,
rousing the people from sleep. The yibra-
tions lasted some seconds.
1t is reported here that the towns Of Dix
10. Winters and Vacaville, were destroyed
bp an earthquake this morning. Wires to
those places are damaged and no particu-
lars have yet been obtained.
At Merced, two distinct shocks were felt.
The first occurred at 2:47, stopping the
clock of the El Captain hotel; the second
shock was three minutes later, starting the
clock again. No damage was done.
At Winters the shock caused general des-
truction to property, A large brick hotel,
bank building, Bertholets two story stone
building, and in acteyery building in town
is damaged. The loss will reach at least
$4,000. No one was hurt. The contents
of the stores and dwellings are all piled on
the floors in promiscuous heapes. The
shock was from east to west, and lasted
about five or six seconds.
At Nevada, the shocks awakened the
soundest sleepers and created wide spread
alarm among tinid people.
At Stockton no damage is reported, but
the scare was large-sized one.
AT Grass Valley it woke the people up
and ratified things lively.
At Marysville the earthquake was felt in
The y ci5ty and II the country for number
of any ever experienced in this vicinity,
but did no damage. Buildings were

rom the hanaas Farmer.
Kansas Z. A. & I. U.

The fifth annual session of the Kan
sas Farmers Alliance and Industrial
Union convened at the Whitley opera
November 10. After the opening ex-
ercises, Prof. Taylor, of the State
Normal school, delivered a most hear
ty welcome, and was eloquently re-
spondod to by Hon. j. @. Otis, who
in few words, concluded by outlin-
ing the aims and purposes of the or
ganiZahon.
Although a very sick man, Presi-
dent Biddle was present and address
ed the members upon the condition
and future necessities of the order,
and was followed by Otis, Scott and
others, upon this important subject
and IN the same line of thought, VIZ,
that everything Of a partisan nature
should and must be eliminated from
the organization. The fact that these
addresses met with the unanimous
and hearty approval of the members
indicate that the future usefulness of
the Farmers Alliance and Indust rial
Union is assured There was mani
tested a most earnest desire and deep
determination to revivify and build
up the organization to its utmost ca
pacity upon the cooperative business
and social plan throughout the length
and breadth of the State. This de-
termination was very forcibly empha-
sized by the wise selection of an able
and efficient set of officers.
The evening session of the first dav
was an open meeting, and devoted to
speeches of miscellaneous character.
The second day was strictly one of
business and eliminated in the cleo
ton of the following officers: Presi-
dent, w. S. Hanna, Ottawa; Vice

Skinned Milk for Hens.

We have many times urged the feed
ing of skinned milk to laying hens,
and will add that on the farm, where
dairying is carried on, the use of butter
milk will also be found of great benefit,
and will very sensibly increase the egg
production. After few days. trial the
"biddies" will look out eagerly for
your coming with the accustomed dish
in hand. Use it instead of water, and
the slightly saline quality will be bene-
fetal. Either buttermilk or skinned
milk is excellent. The latter, of course,
is not as rich and fattening as the
former, but still contains much of good.
Should you be keeping large flock of
hens, and the choice lies between feed
ing the milk to a pig and giving it to
the hens, decide in favor of the hens
every time. The extra production for
one year by the milk feed will buy all
the pork your family may need, and
make your occupation much pleasanter
all round.

Black Goods and Lace.

Black for ordinary street wear is I'M
questionably returning to its old place.
The fabrics are finer and handsomer,
styles are simple, and whether made
up by itself, or frightened with inside
skirt-ruchings and plastrons, or softened
with lace, black seems to be one of the
acknowledged favorites. The lace
dress will remain a feature of the COM
ing season. Indeed lace will be lavishly
used on all parts of costumes, from the
narrow edgings which finish the ruffles
of skirts, to the wider flouncings cover
ing three-four,hs of the depth of the
skirt. The intermediate widths are
used for blouses, over-skirts, and deep
sleeves, and there are exquisite quail
tiles and narrow widths which are in
demand for neck ruching, millinery,
and general trimming purposes

What Not To Do.
MdpeS Dodge

1t seems strange, and yet it is not
strange, that so many people incline to
do just the opposite thing from what
they ought TO do in an emergency.
Only short time ago 1 was summoned
in hot haste to see little girl who had
swallowed pin. Before l could get to
her the over-anxious parents had adj
ministered repeated doses of purgative
medicine, precisely what they should
not have done. Yesterday l was
called to see little child that had swal-
lowed piece of glass. A jelly glass
was broken in being opened, the sliv
ers were cleared off and some of the
jelly given to the child, in which was
piece of glass large enough to cash the
throat as it went down. sent hurried
word to give nothing till 1 came-a
happy thought, for otherwise oil would
have been given again, as that was the
first thing that suggested itself to them.
When any foreign substance is swal-
lowed that is liable to do injury, if any
medicine is given let it be such as will
tend to constipate the bowels instead of
relaxing them. The reason is plain |:
Purgative medicine thins the contents
of the bowels and hurries them
through, giving the foreign body the
best possible chance to penetrate or
lacerate the bowels. By giving consti-
pating medicine or food, render the
bowels sluggish and harden their con-
tents; this favors the gathering about
the tack, pin or whatever has been
swallowed mass that renders it power
less to do harm by covering up its cut
ting surface. Some may wish to know
what foods tend to consitpate the
bowels. Among the best are hard
boiled eggs, cheese, toast bread, etc.,
Don't give too much of this at once or
the result may be as bad as what you
aim to avoid.-T'he Doctor.

DOOrplates out of Fashion.

How completely the doorplate has
gone out of fashion. When l came to
New York to work for living, door
plate was as essential an insignia of gen.
tility as a bank account, and shops
where they were sold were to be found
everywhere. On the residence streets
of the better class, at certain hour
every morning, you would see a servant
on every stoop, polishing the plate up
before its owner had his breakfast. The
doorplate was with us what the marble
front step is to Philadelphia. Phila-
delphia's front steps are there yet.
Our doorplates have become things
of the past, found only on old fashioned
houses without pretensions to style.
Their places have probably been taken
by the coats of arms which fashionable
New York now pays a Frenchman to
invent or borrow for it, and which make
the titled visiting foreigner rub his eyes
when he finds his own crest over the
door of Wall street man of unknown
origin or a railroad magnate of no orr
gin at all.

showing II to consist of two branches,
with scarcely any nebulosity between.
On the morning of the 9th photograph
was taken with camera, with six-inch
Tense strapped on to the telescope, with
an exposure of one hour. There were
then three main branches, new one
having appeared between the two
original ones. Each of these branches
was in turn separated until at least
dozen could be counted Two degrees
from the head along the northern side
of the middle tail sudden bend SOUTH
ward occurs, very unusual thing.
On the morning of the 9th an exposure
of half an hour was given. The short
northern branch had disappeared and
the two others had blended together.
On the 9TH the most successful observa-
ton was made, an exposure of an hour
and five minutes having been given.
The southern tail, the brightest on the
9Th, had disappeared, the middle tail
being very bright and broad. In the
densest portion of the tail couple of
dark holes appeared similar to what are
called I" coal sacks " in the milky way.
This is considered very remarkable
occurrence. AS far as now known"
said DR.. Swift, "the comet appears to be
hyperbolic. 1t never was here before
and never can be again. Assuming
must have been on the road about s ,000,-
600 years in order to have arrived at its
present position al this time"

A Visitor from Boundless Space.

Dr. Lewis Swift of the Warner OBJ
servatory told the reporter of the Roch-
ester Union and Advertiser the other
day that the comet now visible near the
great square of Pegasus is the largest
that has been visible in the northern
hemisphere since the great comet of
1882, and the first one since then that
could be successfully photographed.
The rapid changes that have taken
place in the tails make it the most re-
markable comet that ever appeared.
According to the report of Professor
Barnard of his observations between
April and 8, these changes were TAX
ing place continually. On April A the
tail was twenty degrees long, and

Bound to Use a " H."

There was once in eastern Tennessee
a judge well versed in the law, but en-
tirely self educated, who had this same
obstacle of photography to contend with
all his days, In early life he had lived
in Knoxville, and for a long time in
sisted upon spelling the name Noxville.
His friends at last educated him up to
the point of adding the X; so thorough
ly, in fact, did he learn this lesson that
when few years afterward he removed
to Nashville, nothing could prevent him
from spelling the name EVANSVILLE"
After few years residence there the
judge moved again, this time to Muir
freesboro. One day he sat down to write
his first letter from this place. He
scratched his head in perplexity mo-
ment and finally exclaimed: "Well, I'll
give it up! How in the world can they
spell the name of this place with KIP"

o, have we forgotten his rapturous art
Our need to the master whose genius bequeathed it?
o, why art thou silent, thou voice of the heartl
Kathleen Mavourneeni Thy love still lingers
The long night is waning-the stars pale and few;
Thy sad serenader, with tremulous fingers,
Is bowed with his tears as the lily with dew
The old harpstrlngs quaver-the old voice is shak'

In signs and in sobs means the yearning refrain
The old vision dims and the old heart Is breaking
