vacant lots and roads. while many fled toward the neighboring hills. The nrst vibrations were similar to the preceding disturbance in direction and eHect put they were immediately followed oy the most terrific shock ever experienced Tn this section of the state. The earth trembled and rolled and twisted until it was impossible for people to stand erect, and the terror stricken innaolt- ants crouched together in the darkness fearful that the earth beneath them might open and swallow them. The terror inspired by the rumbling ana trembling of the earth was increased by the sound of falling buildings which gave some idea of the terrible destruc- tion that was being wrought.
 When the most serious shocks had passed and the rumbling sounds hao died away the people gathered in groups about the ruins of their homes and places of business and when they saw the extent of the damage many or them, fearful of a repetition Of this eX- pcrience, immediately started on foot or by any conveyance that could be had for places where the previous shocks had been less severe. In the darkness of the night it was impossible to deter- mine the full extent of damage wrought but with the dawn of day the stricken village had the appearance of the rulns of a city long deserted. church had been levelled to the ground and not one brick building was left standing. Chim- neys had toppled over; frame buildings had been wrenched apart and thrown from their foundations, telegraph ana tclephone wires had been broken and there was not a building ill town that had not been damaged more or less se- riously. In store buildings that were totally destroyed, the merchandise was thrown from shelves and everything breakable was destroyed; not a pane oi glass was left in any window in town
 and in these frame cottages and dwell ings that were left standing stoves were overturned and crOckery and glass ware were destroyed.
 A conservative estimate of the loss tt property in the village is $50, ,GOO ana thlS amount will probably be greatly ln' creased by the damage in the surround . ing country. The extent of the most se' were portion of the disturbance is clever miles long by four miles wide but th'
 shock was felt throughout Santa Bar
 bara and San Luis Obspo counties. The disturbances continued through [ out the day at intervals of two hours but none of the shocks were severe. Th'
 people have deserted the village, ever! conveyance has been taken and tn passenger and freight trains that nav

Not a Man on the Premises.
 Miss Abbie Peffer, a niece of ex- Senator W. A. Peffer or Kansas, for the past ten years has conducted fifty acre farm three miles southwest of this city. She is said to combine a remark able determination with industry and a thorough knowledge of agricultural pursuits, although she was educated for the world and society, and for eight years was public school teacher.
 She has taken up agricultural pur- suits because she does not want to see the old homestead pass into the hands of strangers, and because male farm hands are unreliable indolent and worthless when under the supervision of frail woman. Her fruit and vege- tables are famous in this section of Indiana and her work is really mar veIous.
 The farm which she cultivates is one of the finest in this locality. It pro- duces corn, wheat potatoes, the finest strawberries and apples. In addition the woman sells butter, raises poultry and hogs, cares for two horses and tive cows, summer and winter, and has as a charge ar invalid mother S5 years o1 age. All the produce is marketed by herself. Miss Peffer is misogamist and in twelve years no man has moved | blow, a reaper or a hoe on the Peffel land. She is very remarkable woman who takes pride in that which but few other women could ever carry out. Al the work In the fields, in the garden orchard and stables is done by hel

 It is said the mine workers officials intend to circulate among the citizens of the town for signatures petition calling upon the governor to withdraw the troops.
 Miles Dougherty, national board member of the United Mine Workers from this district, told the Associated Press representative tonight that Dep uty Sheriff Thomas Beddal, who is a nephew of the sheriff of the county and who was escorting workmen along the street, which action jed to the riot was wholly responsible for the trouble. MT. Dougherty said Beddall had no good reason to shoot, as no one was making an attack upon him The firing of the revolver, he said, angered tre crowd, which soon got beyond the control Of the peace e-makers. Beddars brother, Joseph, who attempted to go to his res cue, was badly beaten by some one in the crowd, MT. Dougherty said, because he was carrying several boxes Of car | tridges to his brother Thomas. It is not improbable that the strikers will cali upon the county officers to fix the responsibility for the shooting of the deputy sheriff.
 The district leaders of the Miners union held several conferences during the day at which the situation was thoroughly gone over. Committeeman Dougherty made full report to Presl- dent Mitchell by telephone. This after noon the miners advisory board of this vicinity, which includes the officers of the several local unions in this region held a secret meeting at which plans were devised to prevent any intended breaks in the ranks of the strikers On of the things decided on was to hol6 frequent meetings of strikers and have them addressed by the various district leaders.

THREATENED MURDER.
Greek Drew a Revolver on Sargent Striker and Made Murderous Threats.


 Shortly before eleven o'clock last night cries of murder emanating from a build ing near the corner of Fair and Union streets attracted the attention of some passersby and they notified the police. An investigation of the occurrence revealed the fact that a Creek whose name could not be learned, and who Is not in sympathy with the Sargent strikers had pulled revolver on one of the pickets of the strikers and threatened to kill him. His cries evidently frightened the would-be assaiant, and when the police arrived he was nowhere 10 he found. From their broken English, it was learned that some of the friends of the Greek spirited him away to safe hiding place, but he threatened to shoot the picket on seeing him again.
