Tottering Houses.
Especial to The Herald)

Fillmore, Utah. Nov 14-This place
was visited by an earthquake last night
that terrorized the people and wrought
considerable damage to buildings,
glassware and dishes. There were three
distinct shocks at about 10:45. within a

The earth seemed to have a waving
notion and there was a roaring noise
chat added mull to tire terror Of the
experience. The worst shock came
first: women ran screaming from their
houses attired only I'm their night
clothes and the bravest OF the men
showed unmistakable signs of fear.
Windows were broken on all sides and
many buildings were more or less in
jured, but so far as known no in
dividual was hurt.

EVENTS OF HER REIGN.
How History Was Made During victoria's
Occupancy of the British Throne.

How History Was Made During victoria's
Occupancy of the British Throne.
Although Victoria's reign was essentially
one of peace, it was in no sense an unevent-
full one. Here is a brief summary of the
more important events directly affecting
the British government:
ls37-8-Rebellion in Canada.
lS3942-Afghan war.
lS40-War with China.

lssl-2-Troube and fighting in Zululand.
1sS4-New Guinea annexed
1SS7-9-Troubles in Africa
During all these years Victoria 8 throne
stood firm, thanks probably quite as much
to her own good sense as to the constitu-
tional form of the English government.
But during this period the governments OF
the world underwent more changes than
perhaps was the case during the reign of
any monarch of the modern era excepting
that of George Ill, who was on England's
throne during the French revolution, and
the reign of Louis XIV century and a
half earlier Here is brief resume Of the
chief wars and political changes outside the
British empire during Victoria's reign:
ls4s-Louis Philippe overthrow. Second
French republic established. with Napoleon Ill
at its head.
ls52-Napoleon III, by treachery, overthrow
second French republic and established the
second empire.
decentralization of Italy begun. War of
France and Sardinia against Austria.
lS6l-5-Civil war in America.
lS66-War of Prussia against Austria.
lS67-Union of Austria and Hungary.
lS6S-Isabella, Bourbon queen, driven from
the Spanish throne. Provisional government
established.
ls69-Spanish regency under Marshal Sierra
no established.
1870 Franco Prussian war begun. Downfall
of second empire of France and re-establish-
ment of third republic. Temporal power of the
pope abolished and unihcation of Italy COM
pleted. Amadeo. son of the king of Italy, made
king of Spain.
ls71-Close of the Franco Prussian war. Ger
man empire established.
lS73-Amadeo abdicated Spanish throne. Re
public formed.

Queen victoria's Jubilee.
On June 20 1887 the queen once more
made state progress through her great
capital to attend special service at West
minister abbey in honor OF the semicenten-
NAL anniversary of her accession to the
throne. Every reigning house in the world
sent either members of their families or
great dignitaries to represent them at the
ceremony. and while kings and queens
chatted gayly together in the chancel of
the abbey while awaiting the coming of
Queen Victoria, her majesty-no longer the
bonny fresh and healthy checked English
girl of 1881, but a venerable looking white
haired old lady-was driving up Piccadilly,
her carriage escorted by the most brilliant
troop of princes, archdukes and grand
dukes that have ever been gathered to-
gether for such a purpose.
Most notable in the procession was the
queens favorite son-in-law, the prince i'm
perial of Germany, who little later sue
ceeded his father as Emperor Frederick, and
it was observed that when at the abbey the
various princes and princesses present came
forward to do homage to the queen as she
sat in the chancel on her throne the good
old lady embraced "Unser Fritz" with
especial warmth and affection, as if filled
with presentiment of his impending death,
which took place after reign of only 90
days.
Seven times during her reign was Queen
Victoria's life attempted, but only on one
occasion. in May, 1850, did her majesty re-
ceive any actual injury, and that of a mere
transitory character. Her assailant on that
occasion was dismissed officer of hussars,
and he was seized before he had time to ac-
complish more than strike her sharp blow
in the face with stick The man was SEN
fenced to seven years transportation. The
first attempt to assassinate her was made
in June. lS40 by man named Oxford. who
fired two pistol shots at her while she was
driving up Constitution hill with her hus-
band The would be murderer was de-
tanned several years in prison and at last
accounts was earning his livelihood by
house painting out in Australia
Victoria had nine children-Victoria,
dowager empress of Germany; Albert Ed
ward, prince of Wales; Alice, grand Ouch
ess of Hesse; Alfred, duke of Edinburgh;
Princess Helena, Princess Louise; Arthur,
duke of Connaught; Leopold, duke of AL
bany, and Princess Beatrice. All have had
large families ethe Princess Louise, who
married Lord Lorne.

she set herself down when past the age OF
90 to study Hindoo, and was able at the time
of her death to converse freely with her two
or three Indian body servants.
Moreover. her long experience as ruler
and the profound knowledge which she pos
sessed of international politics were almost
without parallel among the European SOW
ereigns and statesmen, and endowed her
with great prestige and influence The lat
ter, exercised with much caution and fore
sight, proved sufficient on several occasions
to avert continental wars, and it is no secret
that Emperor William of Germany and
Alexander III of Russia were restrained
from fighting for years by nothing but the
wise Intervention of Queen Victoria.

cedence over the prince consort everywhere.
Americans who have visited the British
house of lords will remember that on either
side of the throne there is a chair of state.
The one on the right is very magnificent,
being decorated with the three feathers of
the heir apparent.
1t is the stool occupied by the Prince OF
Wales at the opening of parliament by the
queen. The stool on the left a far meaner
looking object of furniture, is the seat for
merly occupied by the prince consort, and
had the latter survived his wife he would
have become the subject of his own son.
Persistent Grief.
From the time of her husbands death the
queen was scarcely ever seen in public until
the year 1872, when she proceeded in state,
together with the entire royal family, TO
St. Paul's cathedral to join in a national
thanksgiving service for the recovery of the
Prince of Wales from the dangerous illness
which had brought him so very near death S
door the year before. The queen and the
Prince and Princess of Wales passed from
Buckingham palace to st. Paups along
streets literally alive with people. Foot
ways, shop windows and the very roofs
were teeming with shouting, hurrahing and
enthusiastic crowds, and the popular dis
play of loyalty was beyond all description.
In the cathedral the prince sat between
his mother and his wife, the vast fame
thronged to the utmost with good subjects
OF the queen. who were anxious TO show
how entirely they sympathized with her
joys as well as with her sorrows. 1t was a
remarkable scene, especially to foreigners,
since it furnished evidence of the existence
of that kind of family feeling that prevails
between the English royal house and the
people at large 1t is due to the existence
of this sentiment that the queen and her
children go to the trouble of themselves

the lord mayor and the remainder OF her
people through the home secretary OF all
domestic events, such as births, marriages
and deaths. that take place in their family,

A Stitch.

In speaking of the moral standard
of this community, few weeks ago,
we stated ours to be far above the av-
erage and yet realizing that there was
room for improvement, we called
upon the pulpit, press and pew to
awake. A perusal of the late court
proceedings will show this warning,
as timely made, and should not be
lost sight of. The dens of vice exist
in our large cities to such an extent
that their evil influence is extending
far beyond their limits, and has
reached the smaller element of our
great and good country and will ul-
timately bring us to that level.
Should we for one moment relax
that watchtul care, due the
young and rising genegration. 1t is
not our purpose or disposition to sur
mise, but simply call the attention of
thoughtful men and women to con-
dition existing, which if not checked
and controlled will Ultimately lead us
to a much lower level of moral recti-
tude. Public meetings are being held
in Philadelphia, the city of brotherly
love-and good city as,well-yct, at one
of these meetings, Rev. DIR. Wyland
Hoyt, one of their own citizens stated
that there were in the city over
seven hundred houses of women
whose paths lead to death. Bishop

same meeting and made this startling
statement, "a conviction has come to

RECENT PORTRAIT OF VICTORIA.
ton and training were of the most careful,
for, while it would have been wild fancy
indeed that had predicted such career as
she was actually destined to ill, there be
ing at that time several lives between her
and the throne, her father and mother, her
grandmother, the dowager Duchess of Co
burg, also grandmother of the Prince Albert
who was to be prince consort of England's
queen, and indeed George Nv of England
himself, regarded her as very likely to be
the sovereign of England before her death
Prince Albert. when he courted Victoria
years afterward, said to her that he had
been told from childhood that one day he
was to marry the queen OF England, and
she was to be the queen.
The Duke of Kent, who was the fourth OF
seven dissolute sons born to King George
III, died when Victoria was yet an infant
leaving behind him an enormous indebted
ness This was due not only to his extrav
agant way of living, but also to the fact
that his royal father adopted the utmost
parsimony in dealing with him. AT one
time the duke was sent abroad with an al
lowance of but GO week, and on another
occasion all his travelling expenses were put
into the hands of the captain on whose ship
he sailed 1t was this state of affairs that
caused the widowed duchess to live with
great simplicity--a mode of life indeed that
doubtless had a great deal to do with the
sterling character of Victoria when she as
cended the throne
To wise hands was mtrusted the care of
the royal infant. Healthful outdoor exer

utmost regu larity and punctuality were
the order of the day. The idea that not
only her own time, but that of others as
well, was valuable was fostered in Vic

was absolutely unclouded us long as her
husband lived and she was guilty OF no
exaggeration when she declared that the
only sorrow which he had ever caused her
was when he died
People in this country will remember him
as a warm friend of the United States His
amicabIe feelings with regard to America
were manifested on numerous occasions,
never more so perhaps than at the time
when, with the shadow of death already en-
comprising him, he brought all his power
full influence into play against the cabinet
of the day TO prevent the transmission of an
ultimatum to the Washington government
on the subject of the Trent controversy. II
has since been recognized on both sides of
the Atlantic that had the dispatch drawn
up by the Russell Pamerston administra-
ton been sent war between the United
States and Great Britain would have inevi
tably resulted therefrom. That it was
withheld and Il message of far more friend
ly and conciliatory tenor, drafted by the
prince consort, substituted in its stead is
entirely due to the enlightened and saga
cious husband of Queen Victoria, who died
deeply lamented both by his family and by
the whole English people on Dec. IA, 1861.
Only i'll one respect was it perhaps well
that he died just at that time, for had be

Fires such as that do not start

their control in such condition that
the lives and property of our people
are put in jeopardy without being
held to strict account for their negli-
