LONG ISLAND SHAKEN UP

An Earthquake Drives People From
Their Houses.
LONG ISLAND CITY, L. l.. March s An
Long Island seems to have felt what is cup
posed TO have been an earthquake at 1890
O'Clock this morning. At Long Island City
the shock was especially severe, in many in
stances shaking pictures from walls
and creating havoc among chinaw
and bric-a-orRc. At several points
persons fed in terror from their
houses to the street in their night robes,
supposing that their houses were settling or
falling. Most of these persons say dull
boom and strongly marked Simultaneous
trembling of the earth were perceptlble.
The seismic disturbances lasted several sec

PASSING OF THE COWBOY.
BE Still Exists in Wyoming and Texas
But his Glory Has Departed.


he Still Exists in Wyoming and Texas,
But His Glory Has Departed.
From the Boston Transcript.
Texas produced the herder and cowboy.
Texas produces him yet in his fulness. Last
winter. when the cattle "kingsn of Wyo-
ming were trying to kill of or drive out the
actual settlers VITO were making homes on
government land and breaking up the vast
ranges that had been used for years without
permission, the settlers were found to be too
strong for the "kings." 1t became neces.
sary TO have help in the work of de-
populating the country, and Texas was
called upon to furnish the men. They
were of the herder or cowboy type. and no
other state could produce their equals for
that particular work. Before they "cut
loosen however. it was decided that the
settlers had better be left in possession of
the lands they had homesteaded for them
selves. Utah has the best herders in the
United States. They are, as a rule, Nor.
characteristics of the same class. In Kan
ses, Nebraska and Colorado the herder is
no longer "a holy terror" Twenty years
ago be was all that that phrase implies
save the "holy."
l saw the cowboy element just as it was,
never totally depraved, but always wild
ana often dangerous There were Pewnee
Iudian women about the camps and equally
barbaric white women in the village. The
herders all drank and gambled. They would
run accounts between pay days ana a fair
percentage Of the debts were paid. At
times a herd OF herders would take pos
session OF the village; that is, they would
fire up on 40-rod whisky, mount their
ponies and, with pistols cracking and
lariats flying, they would ride and run over
the town like wild, yelling ComancheS.
Then II was dangerous to be out and about.
Then doors were locked and such windows
as had shutters were closed. Now and then
man would be hurt, but the law was
| afraid and nothing WAS done. When the
whisky worked off the boys would tell
yarns on each other and laugh over their
trolics. II they had been murderous lot
would not now be writing.

From tho New York SUM-
1t will seem strange to the American wo-
man, with her Declaration of independence
traditions, to hear that the director of the
French opera has assumed the authority to
make a hard and fast rule with respect Of
ladies' bonnets. Even small bonnets are for
hidden altogether for the occupants of the
pit stalls on Saturdays, that being the only
night when ladies are admitted to this part
of the house. Formerly the stalls of the
French theater were invariably reserved for
men only, but one after another their rules
have relaxed, until the only one where it is
retained absolutely is the Theater Fran
caise. Ever since the question of bonnets
has been constantly mooted, but hitherto
without any actual result, it being so much
against the habit for ladies to appear in
evening dress in such places that no one un-
der the rank of an opera director could have
ventured on their adopting it.
