HUNDREDS ARE DEAD
Earthquake Works Terrible Havoc
in a Mexican City.
Loss OF Life Was Greatest In . Parish
Church. Where Roofs and Walls Turn
bled Down on Assembled
Worshipers.

Mexico City, Jan. 1S.-One of the
most terrible catastrophes in the
history of the state of Guerrero is
reported to have occurred late Thurs
day afternoon, when an extremely
violent earthquake shock was felt at
Chilpancingo, causing a great loss OF
life and injuring many persons. De-
tails from the stricken district are
very meager, but scattering reports
received here indicate that probably
800 persons were killed and as many
more injured. It is known that the
state capitol, the parish church and
many business houses and residences
are in ruins and that there is much
suffering as result of the awful
seismic disturbance. One of the edi-
eral telegraph Office, which explains
the paucity of news that has so far
reached this city. The telegraph
lines and apparatus at Chilpancingo
were badly damaged, but the en-
ployes, all of whom were uninjured,
quickly proceeded to erect an impro-
vised telegraph office on the outskirts
of the city.
The number of deaths was greater
in the parish church than in any sim
gle place, as a crowd of worshipers
was gathered there for the afternoon
service. The solid masonry walls and
the roof came topping on the wor-
shippers and many of those within
were killed.
The war department has ordered
troops in the neighborhood to CO.
operate in the work of rescue. Until
this work is completed it will be i'm
possible to accurately learn the num-
Der of victims. The greater part of
the population of Chilpancingo are
now camping out under tents around
the town, which is five days journey
from the national capital.
Earthquake shocks were felt in
many other cities and towns. In
Mexico City the earthquake occurred
at SIT o'clock Thursday afternoon
and was of such violence as to shake
the most substantial buildings. The
Pan-American congress was in ses-
sion at the time and many of the
delegates were greatly alarmed.

Winter is half over. People are con-

are trying to get something to cure
these troubles which are almost inev-

safely be said that nine-tenths of the
people in the United States have a
cold some time during the winter.
There is one remedy which will pre-
vent colds and cough and cure them
with certainty when contracted. This
remedy is Peruna. Taken with regu-

entirely prevent colds, coughs, la

KILLED AN UNARMED INDIAN.
Fred A1el Hoafnsl Was Arrested al the Bell hahCn for
Mulder.

Sheriff Romero has returned to Las
with him Fred Axtell Hommel, who is
charged with the killing of Marcelino
Montoya, near there a week ago. On
Monday night of last week Hommel
went to the house of Tom Chancellor,
near FL Cuevo, the latter being absent
from home at the time, but soon re-
turning in the company of Montoya.
The Indian was left at the gate to hold
the horses. but Chancellor entered the
house and demanded of his wife what
business Hommel had at Rincon de la
Cinta. At that Hommel, who was in an
adjoining room fired at Chancellor, but
missed.
Chancellor seized his shotgun and re-
turned the fire, hitting Hommel in the
leg between the knee and hip. Hommel
fled from the house, shot the Indian
twice, one ball entering from the front
and the other from the back, mounted
the Indians horse and made good his
escape. However, he was captured on
the Bell ranch and held until Sheriff
Romero could arrive. 1t is understood
that Hommel claims to have killed
Montoya in self defense, but it is claim
ed on the other hand that the Indian
had no arms al all. not even a pocket
knife.
