ATHENS, Jan. "a A strong seismic
disturbance was felt at 9:3O a. m.
throughout the Pelopenes (the southern
part Of the kingdom of Greece) espe-
cially in the southwestern depart
ments of the peninsula. All the houses
in the town of Philiatra, in the depart
ment of Messina, have been damaged
and the inhabitants are now camping
out in the suburbs. The villages in the
vicinity of Philiatra were completely
destroyed, many people being slightly
injured.
The villages of Kiparissia and Staso
were also practically destroyed, though
it is not known as yet whether there
were any victims there.
Much damage to property was done
at Navarino, a seaport, six miles north
Of Modon.
Many slighter shocks have occurred
during the day and the people at nu-
merous towns and villages are afraid to
return to their houses
The authorities are doing all in their
power to furnish tents and supplies.

CAREFUL GREEK PARENTS.
Boys Were Escorted to school Just
- Girls Are Now.

Boys We're Escorted to school Just
~ Girls Are Now.
The extraordinary care that the Gre
clan boy received in his formative years
made his moral training more effective
than that inculc lcated by the most careful
OF modern parents His general educa-
tion, coupled with skillful and continu-
ous physical instruction, produced
morh cultivation very similar and fully
as strict as that the Christian father
deems necessary for his daughters
A pedagogue, generally an old and
trusted slave, led the boys to school and
called for them after it closed, carried
the books, looked out for the little boys,
kept the older ones from fighting and
falling into bad company and had
general oversight of their conduct and
street form. He was by no means a
schoolmaster or even private tutor, not
even being allowed to enter the school
room. Oftentimes ignorant in the ea-
trems, he was chosen simply because of
his loyalty to the family and some-
times, fear, because he was unfit for
any other occupation. Though the butt
of the boys ridicule as well, as that Of
the comic poets and low wits of the day,
he did an incalculable service in prevent
ing vicious companionships and keeping
pure the minds of those intrusted to his
charge.
The child was never sent off to board
ing school, but boys attended the day
school; town life prevailed. Besides,
that sentiment that zea]ously guarded
the boys purity with pedadogue from
his sixth to his sixteenth year could
brook no intermission of personal over
sight. Education was essentially pri-
vate, the state having jurisdiction SIM
ply over the moral and not the profess
sional standing of the teacher.-Popu-
lar Science Monthly.

WILL. NOT WORK FOR RATIONs

SANTIAGO DE CUBA. Jan. 24.-The
order from the United States military
authorities in Havana directing the au.
thorities of the Santiago military de-
partment not to expend any of the Gus
tom receipts without the permission Of
the governor general and the order di-
recting that hereafter the bulk Of the
sanitary work shall be done without
money pay and for rations merely, was
given to the local press for publication
Saturday, though, received here last
Thursday.
Ell Cubano, in commenting upon the
instructions of the governor general,
says:
s'The feeling is prevalent that the
only course COW is to retire to the
mountains"
This is, Of course, an exaggeration
although the fact is that there are peo.
pie who make justsuch threats
So far as the order regarding sanitary
work is concerned. Cuban inspector in
the sanitary department told Major
George NJ. Barbour, the health COM
missioner of Santiago, that the Cubans
of the province had at last regained
their self respect and would! not wor,s
again for rations.

FAKE "FENCES."
A Little Trick That Is Worked In
Baxter Street.

A Little Trick That Is Worked In
Baxter Street.
'There was time and that not so
very long ago." remarked an old time
puller in, "when almost every other
store in Baxter street was fence, or
pretended to be, in order to give custom.
ers the idea that they were getting good
bargains. The clerk who took hesitat.
ing customer aside and whispered
fence was generally sure of sale.
There are 10 genuine fences in Baxter
street now, because clothing, shoes and
hats are so cheap, but some of the stores
still pretend to sell stolen goods.
"When customer in one of these
stores has looked everything over in the
shop and hasn't made purchase, the
salesman tells him that he has a little
'fencs' down stairs and urges upon him
the necessity of keeping it quiet on ac-
count Of the police. Of course the Gus
toner won't say word. So down stairs
they go to the alleged fence, which gen.
orally proves to be big trunk packed
with goods:
"While showing the contents of the
trunk the salesman keeps up running
yarn about the famous criminals who
brought the goods to the store.
Finally, after showing lot of stuff
Of the same quality and pattern the
customer refused to buy up stairs, the
salesman gets him to try on something,
and as quality, workmanship and per-
feet fit always 60 with fence goods,
there is sale made. This fake fence
answers sale purposes as weA as the
genuine, concluded the puller in, land
there is no risk attached to it. New

Borrowing n Horse.

Borrowing q Horse.
In his interesting book, 'The Law
yers of Maine," Willis relates an anec-
dote of Judge George Thatcher, who
was noted for his humor.
Solicitor Davis and Judge Thatcher,
when boys, were neighbors in Barnsta-
BILE and Yarmouth, Mass. The day after
the battle of Bunker Hill the militia
Of these towns set off for Boston. The
boys accompanied the soldiers, Davis
acting as ffer. A few miles out from
Barnstable an order came directing the
military to return home.
In their retreat Thatcher and Davis,
tired Of their march, mounted an old
horse they met on the road, without
saddle or bride. After riding some
miles they dismounted and abandoned
their steed in the highway.
Many years after Davis, as solicitor
general, was prosecuting a horse thief
before Judge Thatcher in the county of
Kennebec, Me. In the course of the
trial the judge leaned over the bench
and said in an undertone to the solic-
itor:
"Davy, this reminds me of the horse
you and stole in Barnstable.'

5WlTHouT 7 ANY TROUBLE.

German Omsial Says There VIII He No
Friction Over Samoa,
BERLIN. Jan. "a. The correspondent
here of the Associated Press has had a
conversation with a high official Of
the German foreign Office, Dr.. Hamann,
who said:
'4The government has just received a
detailed report from Samoa which they
think reliable, all the more SO because
the report distributes the blame for the
errors committed there pretty evenly
though some points remain unex-
planned.
''The report says that Mataafa, prior
to his election, was recognized as eligi-
BILE by the three consuls. 1t is true that
Mataafa in 1883 was hostile to Germ any
but the situation is different now, and
Germany no longer objectedto Mataafa.
And why Chief Justice Chambers
annulled Mataafa's election we do
not know. It was certainly not
under the terms of the Berlin treaty.
The decision is all the more regrettable
because bloodshed might have been
foreseen. No whites property, however,
has been destroyed, and we do not know
why the chief justice sought refuge on
the British warship Porpoise.
'Dr.. Raffel, the German municipal
president, acted illegally in action rela-
tive to the court.
1--WE can only explain these things by
supposing that the officials there had
grown nervous. The German govern
ment, however, takes the whole bust
ness calmly, and doubtless it will be ad-
justed automatically by negotiations
between Washington, Berlin and Lon
don. We do not expect any difficulties.
Germany adheres strictly to the terms
of the Berlin treaty. Whatever illegal
excesses Germans may have committed
we shall disavow.'
