Down in Fountain County, Ind, there
was an earthquake shock and Mrs.
John WEIGH of Covington thought it
was a burglar.
She had just started from the parlor
Into her darkened bedroom when she
heard a glass and silver perfumery
flask on her dresser jingle as if it had
been hit. and almost tipped over. At
the instant her feet were tangled in
the rug at the threshold, but she fled,
frightened and dizzy, and called for
help.
Wien her husband came he turned
on the light in the bedIo DOM and then
felt the second shook. He plainly saw
the perfumery flask rocking on the
marble, and having Travelled in Spanish
America knew what was wrong. From
the heights of his superior information
he thought he would have a little fun
at his wife's expense. So he quickly
flung a scarf about his head, by way oil
disguise, and ran--stooping low-from
