Japan's Big Earthquake.

Advices by the steamer Peru give
further particulars Of the recent earth
quake in Japan. Sakata, town on
the northwest coast. suffered most
severly. The seismic force was exer-
cised chiefly in vertical direction,
and its effects were therefore except
iOnally disastrous.
Houses tumbled down before their
inmates could escape. The ground,
tissured in many places, poured out
muddy water which converted the
streets into rivers, and the horror OF
the calamity was accentuated by a fire
that broke out at thirteen points
simultaneously and destrOyee 2.6OC
houses in two hourses. Two houses
were actually swallowed up, and one
wealthy merchant had forty-eighl
warehouses burned.
In one dwelling a family of seven
persons were crushed to death; in an
other, nine met similar fate. A
group of terrified citizens who had
taken refuge at the base Of cOIossa
bronze vase standing in front of the
town hospital were killed by the fal
of the vase.
Altogether 300 people were killed
and 200 wounded in Sakata and thu

From the New York sun.

New Orleans, June 30-The Louisiana
legislature has without opposition voted
an appropriation for the construction of
bust or statue of Thomy Lafon, the negro
philanthropist, who died here a few
months ago. The governor will have the
selection ,of the statue, and will decide
upon Its location 1t will probably be
placed in the state house. 1t is asserted
that this is the first statue ever erected
to negro in the south, and one of the
first in the country.
LafOn, who was so years old whel he
died, left a fortune of 5000, 900, nearly all
of it to charity. lie founded an asylum
for old people and one for girls and gave
the rest TO other benevolent institutions.
His original intention was to make these
institutions open TO both whites and
blacks, but he was persuaded to abandon
that idea because the whites are already
well provided with eleemosynary institu-
tons
The legislature, which decided to erect
this statue to Lafon, has created some
feeling among the negroes by the passage
of a law prohibiting marriage between
whites and negroes and compelling the
negroes to occupy separate cars from the
whites.
