saw Mr.. Cleveland and asserted that he
looked anxious, but hopeful. Everybody
knew why he looked anxious and every
body also knew why he looked hopeful
There were two little girls already. From
the 1rst both Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland have
wished for son. but IL transpires now that
Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland have three .daugh-

e1actly two years.
When Mr.. Cleveland first heard the

pointed, but he is fond of little girls, so
he had no difficulty In putting on look
OF genuine welcome on his face as he bent
over his third daughter to seek those fleet
ing resemblances which only parents
eyes are able to discover. And when no
saw the newspaper men he was beaming,
but would not talk.

teen seconds after 6 o'clock. The In
strument Is not sufficiently elaborate
to indicate the exact extent OF the VI
brations or their direction, and makes
no distinction between tremors in ver-
tical and horizontal planes, but Pro-
fessor Marvin, the expert in charge,
says there Is no doubt from the dura-
tion Of the shocks as shown by the in
strument that they were Of sufficient
magnitude to have been plainly percep-
tible to reSidents in this city. This is
borne out by the fact that a number
Of Washingtonians discussed the novel
sensations they experienced early this
morning, long before II was generally
known that a great seismic wave had
traversed a considerable area Of the
United States.
In many homes dishes were broken
and pictures fell from the walls. but, as
far as can be ascertained, no damage

FORTUNE TELLER'S TRIAL.
Lancaster Woman Charged with Putting
Spcll on Family.

Lancaster, Oct. 31.--The case of Mrs.
Fanny Cosgrove, of this city, who was
charged with fortune telling. was heard
today and attracted a great deal Of at
tention. The prosecutor was Abraham
Herr, son of Jacob Herr. a well-known
farmer Of Bird-in-Hand. and a nephew
Of John Herr, whom the woman was
charged with surrounding with evil
spirits. The prosecutor testified that
he went to Mrs. Cosgrove's house and
she told him that his uncle, John Herr.
had paid her large sum of money to
do harm to Jacob Herr. She said she
and John had been to Jacobs house
after night and had put quicksilver In
the well and done other harm.
The prosecutor and his father called
on the woman several times and for
money she gave them a talisman to
protect themselves against harm from
enemies. The elder Herr corroborated
his son and said that all the harm the
woman predicted came true. He said
that he believed in witches, signs,
tokens, spells. etc. The defense denied
all knowledge Of the Herrs.
The jury found the defendant not
guilty, but directed her to pay the
costs.
