cites at great length the history OF The

'as the officers OF Hot Springs are en-

other Interesting Notes.

ROME November This city was
visited by violent shocks of earthquake
at $40 O'Clock this morning. People were
aroused from their sumbors and fed to
the open squares, and the greatest con-
sternation prevailed The Convent OF
santa Maria Maggiore was greatly dam
aged. \ portion OF the outer wall was
ovcrthrown. and part OF the ceiling has
fallen. one Of the inmates. a monk. was
injured The shocks were confined TO the
province Of Rome. They were felt very
strongly AT Castelli Roman, but the
damage done there was not serious.
An official observatory report Of the
disturbance says the first manifestations
were slight tremblings which lasted about
five seconds. These became more vio-
lent for a period Of eight seconds. and
then became slighter for nine seconds.
The clocks in the observatory stopped the
moment the trembling began. each indi-
eating the hour Of SOB. The direction Of
the movements WAS from north to south.
The old tower OF the observatory was
damaged.
The shocks created great panic among
the inmates of the prison. and a mutiny
was attempted by the prisoners. Troops
were quickly called to the assistance Of
the keepers. and in a short time the
mutiny was suppressed and order re-
stored
The Pope was awakened by the shocks.
He was perfectly calm, and, after rising,
made haste to inquire for news from the
city.
Investigation discloses the fact that the
damage done by the quake was much
greater than at first supposed. Four
palaces and the Bank OF Italy were SO
shaken that they are rendered unsafe for
occupancy. The Palazzo O1escalchi one
Of the finest palaces in Rome, and five
other structures Of that character We're
also seriously damaged. The building OF
the Ministry Of Finance was also slightly
damaged. The quake rang all the bells
i'm the city. and doors were shaken and
Windows smashed CNorVMhere.

WHENCE COMES TIE WATER.
Earthquake of Thur.dny seems to
he Responsible for II.

INDIANAPOLIS. IND. November l.
An interesting point in connection with
the earthquake, which was felt in this
city yesterday. is the fact that a number
OF small Indiana streams having their
source in the southern border OF the gas
belt. have suddenly filled with water. 30
rains have occurred in this state for
months 10 swell the streams. and IN the
case of Honey creek. in the eastern part
of Bartholomew county. it had gone dry
several weeks ago, the water standing
only i'm pools here and there This week
IL is filled 10 the brim. and in some places
has overlooked. Sugar creek that runs
near Edinburgh johnson county was
nearly dry. but to-day it is reported 70
be nearly filled. smaller streams rising
i'm the Hancock county and gas territory
have shown similar phenomena.
No one can imagine where the water
comes from. In the case OF Honey creek
Inc records show that previous TO The
charleston earthquake august 81. 1870
the stream acted i'm the same way.

What would you think of a far
mer with broad acres of the most
fertile lands, with all the buildings
machinery and stock he wanted,
and each year producing so much
of everything that it burdened him
1 say what would you think of such
a farmer continually going into
debt to another farmer who had
only a measly small farm, mostly
noted for its rocks and worn out
soil-getting into his debt to such
an extent that all the produce of
his farm was absorbed in intere ST
annuallyl You would say such a
big farmer was a fool or insane,
would you nots So say /. Well
that is just exactly the relation of
Uncle Sam and his big farm to
John Bull and his old worn-out
island. 1t does not change the. re.
lation because the number is in
creased-not at all The Ameri-
cans are just as ignorant, Just as
great dupes as the great farmer
would be. The Americans are SO
''stuck" on themselves and their
institutions, that they believe the
gods could make no improvement
in'them, and they are therefore as
easily skinned as school children
