But Time Brought Changes at the sum-
mer Resort.
I was attracted to place in Virginia,
near the Atlantic ocean, where the
combined advantages of surf bathing
and an absence of mosquitoes were adj
vertised, says writer in the Washing
ton Star.
The surf bathing was there, but there
were never more or larger mosquitoes
than infested the place. The landlord
was leader in the church and made a
great point of his conscientiousness, so
I questioned him about the insects:
Mosquitoes worse this year than
usual ?" asked.
Reckon not. They gen'ally bite
purity sharp this season of the var" I
"Are there always this many here"
"Erbout-some gifts killed, but don't
seem ter make no difference"
"Didn't you advertise that the place
was free from mosquitoes?"
"Sartin. allus do, an eff ther war
single skeeter here I'd say so. never
lied yit, an never shall. No, sir; when

NEW YORK, June 1S.-A dispatch to
the World from Madrid says:
Premier Canoyas is willing to pay
the widow of DR.. Ruiz $4,000 If the
United States government will not
press an official claim. The announce
ment of this fact has aroused public
opposition. which the Madrid press is
inflaming. The news papers blame the
government for allowing Ruiz TO be
killed, but censure it most for acknowl-
edging it. They say Spain is under
the iron heel of the Yankees"

reason to believe that the attitude OF
the senate toward new treaty will be
fully canvassed and understood before
the treaty is signed.
1t is understood that the initiative
in the present case will be taken by
the government, as the failure of the
former treaty, by the inaction OF the
senate, left the subject in such a con-
dition that the British government

THE saOCK WAS HEAVY.
Earthquake in California Quite Severe in
its Effects.

its Effects.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 2l.-Late re-
ports regarding the earthquake show
that it was quite severe at Salinas.
Among the more prominent buildings
| damaged are the armory of troop G,
which had its walls badly cracked and
parted; the Nance building, in process
of construction, which will have to be
taken down, and the Farmers Union
| building. The latter had an old crack
opened four inches for a length of
| several feet. In the interior of the
latter building bricks fell and the
plastering was damaged.
The Salinas hotel, the Jeffrv, Abbott
and Bardin houses all suffered more or
less, windows being broken and the
walls cracked. In the leading mer-
chandise houses large plate glass win
dows were broken. On the residence
streets chimneys were thrown down
and windows smashed. The postoffice
| building was cracked on its front.
Public halls are injured to great ex-
tent. The city hall is seriously in
need of plaster, and the court house
has suffered. The old brick Salinas
hotel was cracked across the top.
There were over IS windows broken
in the Bardin house, and in over half
the rooms the walls are cracked.
Not only piles of the very worst kind
can be cured by De Wits Witch
Halle Salve, but eczema, scalds, burns,
bruises, boils, ulcers and other
skin troubles can be instantly relieved
by the same remedy. Snipes Kinersly

SEVERE STORM IN THE SOUTH,
The Cyclone Extended Over Nearly all the
Gulf States.
NASHVILLE, June 20.-A severe
storm prevails in nearly all of the gulf
states and Southern Tennessee.
At A. NJ. all telegraphic communi-
cation with Memphis and New Orleans
was stopped by the collapse of the
wires in the whole lower Mississippi
valley. The great extent~of territory
covered by the storm is indicated by
the fact that the Southern coast routes
from Atlanta to New Orleans are also
down.
At Montgomery, Ala, the electric
disturbance was terrific. The light
ming struck the Western Union wires
near the city and the leaping sparks
in the Office OF that company caused
fire, which destroyed the building,
valued at about $4,000.
There are no reports of heavy wind
accompanying the storm. In fact,
nothing is known OF what occurred
south of here beyond the disabling of
the telegraph system and the fire at
Montgomery.
Don't neglect cough because the
weather is pleasant: before the next
storm rolls around it may develop
into serious difficulty beyond repair.

RIVERA TO BE SHOT.

Death Sentences for Himself and Bac-
caIoa Requested.
NEW YORK, June 18.-A dispatch to
the World from Washington says:
A telegram from Senior Palma, of the
Cuban junta at New York, received to-
night by Secretary Quesada of the pro-
visional legation reads:
"Prosecuting-attorn has asked for
death sentence of Ruiz Rivera and
Baccaloa.
Steps were taken Immediately to pre-
vent if possible the summary execu-
ton of such sentence. Senator Nor
gan and others were seen and their
services enlisted. Arrangements were
made to have influential senators call
carly tomorrow upon Secretary Sher-
man to urge him to request interfer-
ence by the Madrid government, and a
direct appeal will be made to the presi-
dent.
1t is expected that Minister Taylor
will be instructed to obtain from the
Madrid government assurances that
the lives of the two men will be spared.
Unless action is taken early in the day
it is likely that Mr.. Morgan will bring
the matter to the attention of the sem
ate by a resolution, although there is
one on record already in behalf of
Rivera.

Advices were received here last night
that the official commission sent to the
city of Tehuantepec by President Diaz
to investigate the reported formation
of volcano and the extent of the
earthquake damages, has arrived at
its destination and found the condition
of affairs much worse than they had
expected. The town of Tehuantepec
contained about $4,000 inhabitants, and
is completely destroyed so far as build
ings and houses are concerned, not one
remaining standing. The earthquake
shocks continue to be felt at frequent
intervals, and the people are terrified.
The heavy smoke and other indica-
tions of an active volcano to the west
of Tehuantepec is no longer visible.

was Longing in careless attitude
the attitude that caused the C2I1ornl "a

TO drop on his knees and pour out
Jumps of love and lucre in her lap.Her
hat of the GainSbOrOugh variety was
by her side and her head was almost
buried in the plush of sofa in the par
lor of the Kimball, for she was weary,
and Mrs. Myers, who was near by,
showed also the effect of the strain in
the trial which has just closed
Roland Reed was there, too, with
new multi-cOlOred shirt and the same
old nose. This appendage, peculiarly
prehensile, rose and fell at regular in
tervals as the comedian gave an ac-
count of the new role he has been play
ing in Macon for the past week
ooh, say, this is all right" quoted
Roland as his nose came up in a more
astute curve between his eyes This
is all right-this verdict-but I'm glad
VERY glad-very glad,'' said Isadore,
and her eyes dilated and snapped dra-
matcally.
More than glad.'' sighed Mrs. Myers.
But say, we didn't do a thing to
EN- said Roland. Wonder how Hen
deTsOn feels?
"The Indianr' snapped Isadore, Il
could scratch his eyes"
I hope he feels satisfied said Mrs.

The trio had just arrived from Macon
where they had waited until the verdict
in their suit against the Southern came
in This was brought in yesterday
morning at 11:30 o'clock and gave Mrs.
Myers 81, 900, Miss Rush $4,000 and Ro-

Naturally, upon his arrival in At
lanta last night Reed was in a jubilant
humor.
Il am perfectly satisfied he said.
st do not care so much about the
amount of damage obtained as 1 do for
the fact that I was struggling for
principle. It is this that makes me feel
good. I believed that the road was at
fault in good many particulars and I
wanted a jury of the American people
to say so. I am the more happy since
the action of the counsel in the case.
