EARTHQUAKE IN GREECE.
ed, and Much Damage Done In
Seaport Cities.

ATHENS. Jan. PA strong seismic dis
turbance was felt this morning about half
past o'clock throughout the Peloponnesus
the southern part of the kingdom of
Greece, especially in the southwestern de-
partments Of the peninsula. All the houses
in the town Of Philiatra, in the department
of Messenia, on the Ionian coast have been
damaged and the inhabitants are now
camping out in the suburbs. Two villages
in the vicinity of Philiatra were completely
destroyed, many people being slightly in
jured.
The villages of Kyparissis and Staso were
also practically destroyed, though 1t Is not
known as yet whether there were any VIC
TINS there
Much damage to property was done at
Navarino, a seaport six miles north of
Modon, whose harbor witnessed the victory
OF the English, French and Russian fleets
over those of the Turks and Egyptians in
1871; and considerable loss is reported from
Calamata, capital of the department of
Messena. near the head of the Gulf of
koron.
The shock was severely felt in the district
OF Zante, capital of the Ionian island of
that name; but there was no loss Of life or
property there. Many slighter shocks have
occurred during the day, and tonight the
people at numerous towns and villages are
afraid to return to their houses.
The authorities are doing all in their
power to furnish tents and supplies.

sTANLEY's PICTURE GALLERY.
Manly Beauty of Every Type Is There.
but 1t Doesn't Move the
Gncnrnor.

TOPEKA. Jan. 22.-(Special) Governor
Stanley has rare collection of photographs
at the state house. The room which Ed
Little showed Governor Leedy out of dur
ing the last Populist administration en-
earth is rapidly filling with photos por-
traying the handsome features Of sturdy
Kansas manhood
The photos are likenesses of many Of the
faithful who have signified their willing
ness to serve their state In an official capa-
city and make as deep inroadS into tie
treasury as the law will allow.
A Sixth district candidate first hit upon
the idea of having Photographic collection
In the governors Office. His is counte-
nance of unusual beauty and power, con-
tact with Western Kansas zephyrs having
aided nature in adding to his physical
adornment. He sent with his picture q
copy of DIR. Somebody's almanac, In which
were catalosued his various manly char
acteristics. as suggested by his counte-
nance:
Brow, overhanging - indicating great
breath of intellect.
Eyes. large. round, and deep-perfect re-
liability.
chin. sharp-cut and protruding-determ.-
nation.
Nose aquiline-indicative Of unusual
force"
TheSe passages IN the almanac were
marked with blue pencil. the sender in
tending that the governor should see at a
glance that he is just the man for SUPER
intendent of one of the state institutions.
When the plan of the Sixth district can
didate became noised abroad 1t was taken
up and adopted by other place hunters,
until now the photos pour into the execu-
tive Office at the rate Of a score day.
General Prosperity has entered into nego-
tiations with photographers all over the
state and the picture takers are forced to
the most brilliant finishes. Eyes are the
windows of the soul and it takes an artist
to disguise the fact that some of them are
of stained glass.
The effect these generous pictorial dona-
tionS are having upon the governor is
This kind Of business doesn't take" well

eth not upon the outward appearance If
he can ascertain the true condition of the

Governor Stanley of friend the other
day as he surveyed his collection of photo
graphs picturing all degrees and shades OF
Kansas manly beauty.
Queer that these fellows should imagine
that their looks will cut any pie with me.
l don't care whether man is as handsome
as Billy Edwards or as homely as Frank
Grimes their photographs won't get them
any closer to the salary list. l don't like
this picture business at ALL"
Whereupon Henry Allen, private secre-
| tary. entered the inner sanctum and
emptied mail bag full of fresh photos
on the table. They were labeled ''indorse-
ments.

friend of the chief executive told The Jour-
nal correspondent that no fellow who
measured up to the required standard
mentally or physically had yet appeared
and asked for that place and that the ad-
ministration was 'in the nine hole" A no.
tice to that effect was published in The
Journal. The governor is now in trouble
sure enough; not because of a continued
scarcity of applicants. but on account of
the number of them. They have been COM
ing in singly, in, pairs. squads and COM
panies. Those who could not come have
written. The governor and his genial pri-
vate secretary. Henry Allen, have been
wrestling with the ever present crowd
while the two stenographers have been
kept busy opening letters and placing ap-
plications ''for superintendent of The
Hutchinson reformatory' on file. The en-
tire force in the governors office was glad
when Sunday came, but all dread to-mor-
row.
Governor Stanley now appreciates more
fully than ever before the value of an ad-

friend occupying the governors chair.
While W. z. Stanley is at the helm they
will have to take the medicine prescribed
to them by the local authorities. No joint
lists will be pardoned. 1---.- ~
? II propose to stand absolutely upon the
utterances in my message regarding the
enforcement Of the prohibitory law" said
the governor to-day. Il said in that mes
sage that would leave the enforcement
of the law to the people themselves. When
a person is convicted by jury of twelve
men and sentenced to jail by the trial
judge 1t is reasonably certain that he is
guilty. especially IL 1t be a liquor case.
Kansas juries are not apt to send an in
nocent man to jail for selling liquor. This
being the situation. the person convicted
must abide by the decision of the court
: do not propose to review the acts of
the court and override the will of the
people by pardoning from jail man whom
judge and Jury have decided should be
there"
Last evening an influential attorney from
Northern Kansas appeared at the gov
errors office with an application for a
pardon for jointist. 1t is the first ap-
plication that has been made for a pardon
since Governor Stanley took charge of af-
fairs. 1t was promptly denied. The at
torney had not got very far along with
his story of the great injustice being done
lis client by keeping him in jail until the
governor remarked that he had made a
rule not TO consider single pardon case
until after the adjournment of the legis-
lature.
But this mans time will be out before
then" said the attorney.
We'll, he is in great luck" replied the
governor. 1T will save me the work of

him. providing he would quit fighting the
case and go to JAIL" continued the attor-
ney.

curt reply of the governor
The attorney still insisted He said the
3ointist could not arrange matters so that
he could begin serving his time while Leedy
was governor, and that Leedy said it would
not look right to pardon jointist who was
not yet in jail.
