DESTRUCTIVE EARTHQUAKES.

 Hundreds of People Killed.

All Parts of Greece Severely Shaken ana
 Hundreds of People Killed.
 ATHENS, April 2S. 1.-The earthquake shocks that began at about 7:30 o'clock Friday night continued with more or less frequency until noon yesterday. All Saturday night the oscillation of the earth was noticeable, and the peo- ple in this city were in state of semi panic. s,
 In three villages, Malesfna, Proskina and Martino, all in the province of Lo- cris, 129 persons were killed. The may or of Larymni telegraphs that heavy shock occurred at Proskina while yes per services were being held in the par ish church. The walls of the church fell, burying all the worshipers in the ruins Hardly a person in the church escaped without injury, Thirty were taken out dead. Houses were thrown down in other parts of the vil- lage, and the money loss is great Some of the villagers are practically ruined. At Malesina, houses tottered and fell as though built of cardboard. In this little village sixty persons were killed. In some cases entire families, fathers. mothers and children were taken out of the ruins dead
 At Martino, thirty-nine persons were killed. Here, as at Proskina, the parish church was the scene of the greatest number of fatalities.
 In the vicinity of Athens the fatali ties were less numerous, but the prop erty damage is immense.
 The offices of the Austriau-Lloyd anC other steamship companies were par italy destroyed.
 The Church of St. Elias, between th' Piraus and Phalerum has been rackec beyond repair and is tottering. Th' domes, walls and mosaics of the famous Byzantine church of Daphne are yer! seriously injured.
 The total number of deaths thus ia reported is 16O, but there is scarcel, any question that this number will b augmented when the more remote vii lages are heard from.

MYERS STRIKE.

TIE TOTAL NUMBER ABOUT i25,OOO,
s,,s,ension of Work In Ohio and West crn Pennsylvania Almost Complete All Quiet at Pittsburg,
 Kan.

Co,,,,Rrs, O., April 23.-Chairman ,,,pride of the United Mine Workers, was busy yesterday comparing press T;sratches and newspaper reports or ,hn biz strike with information at tard His revised estimate shows ,Lot more men have struck in the oomnetitive district and fewer in ,bo ontlving districts than an- ticinated, but the total number of men remains about the same as given Satprday-195. 900. In Illinois he states ,bore are 24,OOO out of 85, 1000 idle; ln- 5iana (. 900 out of about 5000, and in West Virginia, 2,OOO out of 5000. Conventions are to be held in Hi nois and West Virginia Tuesday newt when efforts will be made to hiring all the men in line. Presi- dent McBride expects definite informa- ton by letter from nearly every dis trict to-day. There seems to be no donbt but that the suspension in Ohio and western Pennsylvania is about complete. The organizers are most active in West Virginia and Illinois. No reports have been received of any disturbances, and none are expected, as a friendly feeling seems to prevail.
 QUIET AT PITTsBURG, KAN.
 PIrTsBURG, Kan, April 2S Thus far there has been no strike among the miners here. A few agitators have made their appearance, headed by J. NJ. Lacy, eX.secretary of the local as semblv of the Umwa, who took such a prominent part in the strike here last year. He is followed by few of the malcontents of last years campaign. They, under the direction of T. E. Me Gregor, are working quietly among the miners. but with little success, how ever.
 A meeting was held at shaft ?, Weir Citv. yesterday, the result of which was unsatisfactory to the agitators. A meeting was held at Frontenac by the miners to discuss the strike question, and they decided that as they received no assistance from the national organ ization to win their strike last year, consequently did not feel under obli' gation to assist the national organiza ton in their strike. They will not gC out unless a pressure of some kinc should be brought to bear later on.

If the following letters had been written by your best known and most esteemed neiehbors they could be no more worthy of yotir confidence than they now are, coming, as they do, from well known, intelligent, and trustworthy citizens, who, in their several neighborhoods, enjoy the fullest confidence and respect of all who know them. The subiect of the above portrait is well known and much respected lady, Mrs John e, Foster, residing at No. 33 Chapin Street, Cauandaigua, N. Y. She writes to Dr. k. V. Pierce, Chief Consulting Physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical institute ms at Buffalo, N. Y., as follows: "l was troubled with eczema, or salt-rheum, seven wears. I doctored with a number of our home physicians and received no benefit whatever. l also took treatment from physicians in Rochester, New York, Philadelphia, Jersey City, Binghamton, and received no benefit from them. In fact I have paid out hundreds of dollars to the doctors without benefit My brother came to visit us from the West and he told me to try Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. He had taken it and it had cured him. have taken ten bottles of the Discovery, and am entirely cured, and if there should be any one wishing any information would gladly correspond with them, If they enclose return stamped envelope"
 Not less remarkable is the following from Mir. J. A. Buxton, a prominent merchant of Jackson, N. C., who says: "I had been troubled with skin disease all my | life. As grew older the disease seemed to be taking stronger hold upon me. tried many advertised remedies with no benefit, until was led to try Dr. Pierce's Golden i Medical Discovery. When I began taking | it my health was very poor in fact, several ] persons have since told me that they thought

NAILED TO CHURCH DOORS.
Remnants of Human Skin Played from the

Remnants of Human Skin Played from the
 Backs of Trsnsgressors-
 There are many traditions handed down that the doors of certain of our oldest churches had been covered with human skin hayed from the bodies of transgressors who had been guilty of the sin of sacrilege. Some years ago Sir Harry Englefeld first called the at tention of the Society of Antiquaries to the existence of such a tradition re- garding the churches of Hadstock and Copford, in Essex; and Hon. Rich ard Neville, in his Antigua Explor- ata," affirms the record preserved by popular belief in those parishes
 It appears that similar tradition was held in Worcester in relation to the great north doors of the cathedral supposed to have been covered with the skin of person who had robbed the high altar.
 The skin, on examination by power full microscope, proved to be human skin. Portions of skin obtained from the church doors at Hadstock and Cop ford have also on scientific examina' tion, been shown to have been human. Mention is made by Pepys, in his diary, of a visit, in 1861, to Rochester cathe' dral, to see the skins of the Danes, with which the doors, as it was then be ] lieved, were covered.

CAVALRY AND COLD STEEL.
An Attack of Troops with a Light Artillery
 Accompaniment.

An Attack of Troops with Light Artillery
 Accompaniment.
 If you allow cavalry soldier to for get the value of cold steel and rely on fire-action, you destroy the dash and elan which make him formidable, and should be his characteristic There fore Frederick one hundred and thirty years ago ordered his troopers always to attack, and while he discounte- nanced the use of carbines, gave them the necessary support which fire lends, by organizing a light artillery to at tend their movements.
 Napoleon has told us that cavalry cannot reply to fire, and can only fight with the steel" and fully recognizing where lay the weakness of his horse' men, he gave them an auxiliary in the shane of horse artillery which, so far from hampering their movements, added to their boldness and enterprise when acting independently ahead of his vast armies. The cooperation of the two arms was also then found to | work in another direction to the benefit of both, for while projectiles loosen compact formations and render the at- tack of sauadrons more dangerous, the cavalry force the scattered units tC draw together and present an easier target for the guns Especially was this noticeable during the pursuit of a beaten foe. A battery, bold and vel placed, may deny a whole road to tho retreating columns, and long lengths of "train" may have to be abandoned on the inroad of few accurately al rected shells. Review.
