WATER OF LAKE DISAPPEARS.
Earthquake Shock Makes a Fissure
Much Damage In
@# Il Mexico.

Many buildings in the. town of Aut-
Ian, situated in the southern part of
the state of ..Jalisco, Mex, were de-
molished by the recent earthquake.
Wher the first tremblings were felt
the inhabitants fed to the mountains.
Hadthey remained in the houses there
would have been heavy loss of life.
Much damage was also done in Tusca-
cuesco and Tonita- ill.,.
{ The water of large lake near the
town of zapotalan disappeared in a
great d assure in the earth which
seemed to be produced by second
shock. that lasted about one minute.
The bed Of the former lake is now
dry, and the fssure can be plainly
seen. It is over three miles long and
from one to three feet wide The tidal
wave which swept in from the ocean
after the shock did little damage.

CR,EAT TIES SENSATION.
Girls Dine in Randall Hall with
ssss4
Harvard Freshmen.
Presence Of Three Youns yyomen In:
the Male Students, Dining
Hall an Unheard-Of
Innovation.

:. Angels rush in where fools fear to
tread" That is the story Of the fun-
niest incident and the one that has
caused the most talk of anything that
has happened at Harvard university at
Cambridge, Mass, in many moons.
While everybody was quietly eating his
lunch at Randall hall, the second din-s
ing association of Harvard, the other
noon, one man. made famous by the
recent contests between the members,
D. D. Walton, freshman, from West
Orange, n. j., marched into the hall
with three girls and lunched them
there. Men came in after them, caught
sight Of the women inside those walls,
and almost staggered. They Punched
were awake, and then they marched
in on tiptoes. Those in the hall stopped
eating, and you could hear rustic of
skirts in every corner, so quiet was the
hall. Then there was a. gentle ripple
of surprised laughter, not meant to be
rude, but coming close to it, w. :
And now Walton is known as the
most courageous man at Harvard. He
did what no man has ever done in either
Memorial or Randall halls before, and
he did it without a futter. 49,
The three young women have done
something to make them famous, too.
There is no rule against it, for the di-
rectors would have thought of forbid
ding the men to- eat the dishes OF bring
COWS into the sacred hall as soon as
fonbidding man to bring*women. The
thing never occurred before, so Walton
is original as we'll as brave. At Me-
mortal hall, which was founded years
ago, before the board had forbidden
women to go unchaperoned into rooms,
there is such rule. K. -. p ~as ~-z- 6

sHIPLOAD OF BEER LOST.


Army quartermasters are q great
deal interested in the mysterious dis
appearance Of ship load OF Beer.
The cargo comprises 20 barrels Of the
bottled article, and WAS consigne to.
q former sergeant OF the Third ar
tillery at Malolos from Manila. The
Shipment was intended to furnish the
canteens at Malolos, Gyn,lgua and
Baiaug, and naturally there was
great deal Of interest in tie freight.
Formerly such articles were shipped
by railroad from Manila, but recent
" the railroad facilities from that
place have been taxed to take care of
the regular army supplies, and other
goods have been sent up by eascoes.
One Of these cascoes and the cargo
was captured about two months ago
by a party of Ladrones, who exacted
a tribute of $50 from the Filipino in
charge of the cargo before it was per-
mitted to proceed its way.
The disappearance Of the large
quantity of beer, which is worth
$4,000 in the Philippines, is account
ed for in some such way. The theory
is that it has fallen into the hands
of those who know how and where
to make the best use Of their booty.
The pirates who infest the smaller
bays of the archipelago keep a careful
watch on the shipments from Manila,
and cargoes which are sent out with
out guard are usually recognized and
frequently attacked. It has become
to be the practice that~hardly any
cascoes are permitted to leave Manila
without an armed party for protec-
ton. 20 az %E.'z"-S - ~ t:'-r@' 5f.a-t.,s

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

is due not only to the originality and
simplicity Of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.
only, knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FoRNIA FIG SYRUP Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company guaranty
of the excellence of it's remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not grippe nor
nauseate. In order to get it's beneficial

BreVitieS.

According to the GedDcr, prohibition
seems to be gaining ground, but like the
poor fellow at the foot of the mountain
after the landslide, isn't some other
party's ground ON top"
There is nothing i'll sight yet of the
electric railway from Cumberland, ria
the metropolis of Frostburg, to Western
port-not even hole i'll the ground. 1t
is one of prosperity's unbegun jobs.
There is a man i'll town with a swelled
foot, another with blOated head. The
strange feature of this diversity of af-
Fiction is-the man with the foot knows
more, but the one with the head suffers
less.

Col. Pearre is credited with an endow-
ment called by 81. R. A in the Forum
last week "merited astuteness" What

That big betting-6 to /, is all bravado.
1t shows which side has the money and
which side, comparatively speaking, has
not. Still that sort of thing has its eff
feet 1t fools the blackleg and gives the
Puritan confidence; it deceives the
gambler and quiets the fears of the bishop.

Seven More S5-Chances.

Somebody with swagger in his tone,
writing to the FOrHm over the signature
of ga New York Miner" wants to bet
S. that Major Little was here i'll 1894
with the State militia; s. that Col
Pearre was never asked to defend the
miners indicted in July; - that he said
he was ready to do so, and s. that he
voted for and supported the labor bills
i'll Congress which his accusers say he
did not.
Those are doubtless safe wagers-so
safe "a New York Miner can afford to
be bumptious over them.
But let us carry this sort of thing into
another domain and see how it will
work. That is to say. the JOURNAL
wonders whether ga New York Miner"
will bet So that the current Cumberland
charter did not become law i'll 1922
another S. that the said charter does not
contain a section which loads Cumber-
land city election expenses on the county
another - that Col. Pearre was not in
the State Senate at that time ?-another
So that if he is not the author of the Act
that he was not lawyer enough to see
the effect of the section under which
this fragment of Imperialism is clOaked =:
another s. that this provision of the
city charter has not cost the people of
the county, mostly laboring men, not less
than $4,000?-another s. that it is not
taxation without representation ~
and still another So that the people who
do not pay the expenses are not the peO-
pie who do the voting?
The JOURNAL does not encourage "a
New York Miner" to place his hard
earned money i'll peril, but if nothing
Forum will be as fair in this us in the
other case-"arrange bets and procure a
worthy stakeholder.
Stated i'll positive, not negative terms
the provision of law under which the
county is made to pay city election ex-
penses is in the city charter enacted in
1892, at which time Col. Pearre was a
| State Senator.
To say that he did not see the effect of
this provision when he voted for it would
reflect upon his acumen as a lawyer,
which no one who knows him will do.
The JOURNAL alludes to this matter
here and in this way because it does not

John Hartig. Peter Mcclure and

last Saturday from IA fishing tour to the
South Branch, locating their operations
about / !, miles below Hanging Rock
w. Va. They brought home 6 eels,
bass and 2 catfish, besides leaving a
whole lot i'll the river for catch next trip.
Mcclure was the hero of quite thrill
ling incident during the campaign. He
set his pole and drifted away short
distance. All at once the pole left its
fastenings, shot out into the stream and
down toward the Potomac with break
neck speed. Mcclure arose and, with
ont disencumbering himself of clothes,
started down the river for the truant pole.
Water was no obstacle. In he plunged.
At last he reached it after pushing
through cold water chin deep. He
grabbed the pole and made for the
shore There was fighter at the other
end, but Mcclure was too much for him.
Reaching land, he slowly pulled in the
thief and found bass 'steen inches long
and two pounds wide. Mcclure says
cts mean fish that will steal man S
pole when he amt looking" So he
brought him home.
