Miss Anne Hinde Writes Her Parents
Regarding Disturbances.

CRY OF MEXICO, MEXICO, Sept. %.
My Dear parents; Ny birthday
came to-day and so did the earth
quake. At noon l found my plate
surrounded with presents from the
children and Miss Noryille had an ex-
ira dinner prepared with two cakes
for me and the fruit and other things
which especially liked
We had almost finished eating when
the chandelier above us began sway
ing back and forth and everybody got
sick and dizzy and the old house sure
did rock. The children in their din
ing room, Of course, went wild. All
the coaches and cars In the streets
stopped short and the people fell on
their knees in the streets wherever
they happened to be. We have three
big cracks in the wall Of our parlor as
a result, I'm satisfied. Was crazy to
feel one, but ones plenty.
Sept. 25 4 am afraid you folks will
read about these earthquakes and feel
uneasy about me. | am alright and
do not feel the least afraid. The first
one came Tuesday at noon, the second
Tuesday night at II O'Clock and the
third this morning at 2. knew moth
ing Of the last two. Slept soundly
through it all. This morning Miss
Norville, Miss Liesseur and several
Others were awakened by the doors
slamming all over the house. They
thought some one was roaming around
and they got up and searched diligent-
ly. Did not know what it all meant
until they found out later it was an
earthquake.
You ought to hear some of the fun
ny stories they tell about the four
men running out of the puldy shops
dram shops and dropping in the mid
die Of the street to pray. All kinds OF
excitement going on.
1t has been raining ever since these
shocks began and many Americans
take this as a sure sign Of an eruption
Of PessC- and talk Of leaving. Miss
Gillespie tried lit. best last night to
make me go back with her to the
States, but l do not feel the least fear.
The natives (higher class think moth
ing of it, so won't either. They say
now that this win be the end of it,
perhaps for two or three years.
l am as happy and contented as you
please, so you need not feel uneasy.
Very much love,
ANNE.

everything that was good and an
abundance TO spare.
This was a profitable meeting at an

CLARK Al Parbsr and Yandalia.

VANDALIA, Mo-, Oct. 2, 19O2.-Hon.
Champ Clark in opening up his Con-
gressional campaign, started of at
Farbsr, where he made two speeches
yesterday, speaking here in the opera
house at night. There was a large at
tendance and Champ appeared In good
trim for the occasion. In the main
his thoughts were confined to the tar
i'll question and TO Imperialism. what
are we to do with the Philippines"
was his constant enquiry. Personally
Champ is a free trader. He spoke OF
the 81 ,OOO, 900, 900 Reed congress, but
this was overshadowed by the lavish
ness Of the present Republican con-
gress. He attributed the prosperity
TO the gold lind in Alaska and the
dumping Of s3OO,OOO,OOO of English
gold into the lap Of the American gov
ernment, carrying out the old theory,
"The more money the better the
times"

Marshal White seems to be up
against 1t a good deal like the news
papers. He is continuously getting
letters signed ''Citizen," "Voter,"
"X. Y. T." aud in various other ways
which often lay serious charges on
some fellow-citizen. Marshal White
says that all such communications
reach the waste basket as soon as 1t is
possible to put them there. IL seems
to the LEDGER that ii is the work OF
a degenerate to prefer anonymous
charges or TO ''tip' the police without
having backbone enough TO do so over
ones own signature. The anonymous
letter-writer is q mighty poor branch

ChaS. A. Thompson, on his big
farm, has, without doubt, broken the
record for q Monroe county corn crop.
He has $50 acres, that those who
have seen it say will make so bushels
per acre. He has corn that will make
l25 bushels per acre; and II you don't
believe it, go and see for yourself.
Two men from Iowa, the famous
corn country, saw Thompson's corn
last week, and readily admitted that
1t was the largest corn they had ever
seen.
Real estate men from Moberly and
Centralia, almost daily drive to
Thompson's field TO get show corn.
Mr.. Thompson has reason TO be
proud Of his success as farmer, and a
trip to his farm viii pay a man fol
his trouble.
