lent earthquake shocks. were felt here

twenty seconds. Although some dam
age was done, the extent of it is not
known. The inha bitants have become
greatly alarmed. and are fleeing from
their houses in anticipation of further
and more serious disturbances. The
earthquake shocks did much damage
to the city, and several persons are re-
ported to have been killed. All the
Offices the banks and the bourse have
been closed. The population of Con-
stantinople is so terrified that many
thousands of people are camping out
in the open air. Two disastrous fires
have already occurred and Geographic
communication is interrupted.
1t is believed that fifty persons have
lost their lives and that the number OF
injured far exceeds that figure. The
loss to property will be very large.
There have also been severe shocks of
earthquake in smyrna, the island of
Scio and in the Dardanelles. No dam
age was done, SO far as known, but
telegraphic communication between
the places named and Constantinople
has been cut off and details have not

Lincoln musicians have been fortunate in
being able to listen to two delightful enter
tainments this week. Mr.. Oliver Pierce
gave piano recital on Monday evening at
the Congregational church. The entertain
ment was worthy OF a much larger audi
ence, and should have been patronized by
every piano pupil in the city. The crit
cism in the daily papers revealed the fact
that we are blest with better critics than
artists. for Mr.. Pierce's playing was artistic
in a high degree. 1t did not suffer in COM
parison with Sig. Berni the following even
ing. Sig. Berni has evidently been before
the public for some time and has acquired
practice.
Mr.. Pierce is young man and will I'M
doubleday acquire in time many things he
now lacks. but he gives promise of bril-
liant future and will gain distinction in his
chosen profession. The entertainment on
Tuesday evening was an artistic success.
Remenyi has lost none of his brilliancy and
his playing charms and delights as of yore.
His company was unusually good, and the
Conservatory is doing good thing for
musical Lincoln in bringing such opportun-
tiles to them. The audience, which was
liz
cores to every number. 1t is seldom we
have two entertainments of such unusual
merit in one week.
