Earthquake Prophet Booker.

Norfolk, Va, Nov. E.-Some time ago
Albert Booker, an aged negro, predicted
that Norfolk would be destroyed by an
earthquake at O'Clock yesterday. Booker
preached among his race and wrought
numbers of negroes up to a state border
ing on religious frenzy. Thursday and
Friday crowds of negroes left the city
hoping to escape the awful death Booker
had told them they would suffer If they
remained here. The white population has
come in for its share of annoyance in this
connection by reason of the ever-trouble-
some servant girl question, the Booker
prediction having caused them to leave
their situations. Thursday night Booker
held a meeting. which was largely at
tended by colored people, who paid an
admission fee of cents each. Booker
said if the congregation would give him
S25 he would intercede with the Lord for
a "postponement'' of the earthquake. He
reaped a harvest of nickels and disap-
peared. 1t is needles to say the earth
quake did not take place. The colored
people are threatening dire vengeance
