SHOCK RAZED HOUSES
SEVERE EARTHQUAKE AT LOS
ALAMOS, CAL.
Brick Houses Wrecked and Havoc
Spread in Drug Stores and
Saloons.

LOS ALAMOS, Cal, July 31.-The most
severe earthquake in the history of this
place occurred at 90 o'clock this morning.
1t Is not possible as yet to estimate the
damage, but it is very heavy. No lives are
known to have been lost, though there were
many narrow escapes. Every brick build
ing in the town was destroyed or badly
wrecked. In nearly ever house windows
were broken. The Presbyterian Church, a
large and handsome brick structure, was
razed to the ground and a similar fate be-
fell the general store of W. S. Wickenben,
also a brick building. The shock seems to
have had a spiral motion. Goods were
hurled from shelves of stores and piled in
the middle of the rooms. Even such heavy
articles as desks were thrown about Not
a chimney is left standing in the town. All
brick walls are badly damaged, but frame
structures generally escaped serious injury.
In the drug store not a single bottle es-
capped, and Kohn's saloon was flooded with
liquor from broken bottles.
The whole town was aroused and people
fled from their homes to the streets in
panic. There have been several light shocks
since July q, when the first heavy shock
occurred, but that of this morning exceeded
in violence anything yet experienced
1t lasted thirty seconds and threw people
from their beds. Los Alamos is a town Of
about 600 Inhabitants in Santa Barbara
county.
People Are Panic Stricken.
The people of this city and vicinity are
terror-stricken and are fleeing from their
homes to places of safety.
Three distinct shocks were recorded be-
tween 7:25 and 7:3O o'clock this morning,
the last one being the most severe yet felt
Present Benjamin Ide Wheeler of the
University of California was communicated
with by telephone and advised the people
to quit the town as soon as possible
Scientists of the university were away
on vacations, but President Wheeler ad
vised that the people be ready to flee at
a moments notice, and that the doors of
residences and places of business be left
open SO that those indoors might escape
to the streets without delay in the event
of further disturbances. The advice of
the people at once, and was Immediately
acted upon.
1t is impossible to estimate the financial
loss at this time with any degree of ac-
curacy, but it is believed that the disturb
ances of the last three or four days have
damaged at least $50 900 worth of property.
Reports from the other sections of the val
ley probably will increase this amount by
many thousands.
No loss of life is yet reported.
SANTA BARBARA, Cal, July 31-An
earthquake shock lasting ten seconds was
felt here at 1:3O O'Clock this morning.

Bad Work of Blue Jackets at
Kure, Japan.
MAD AT INNKEEPERS
OPPOSED ATTENDANCE OF GEL
SHAS AT DANCE.
Great Difficulty in Reducing the Re
calcitrants to Order-News
From the Orient

VICTORIA, British Columbia, July 81
Late oriental advices were received by the
steamer Olympia which has reached mere
from Yokohama.
A serious disturbance took place at Kure.
About 100 blue jackets from men-of-war in
the harbor invaded three inns. smashed all
the furniture and were with difficulty re-
duced to order, after nearly three hours
rioting. The alleged cause is that the men
were enraged because the innkeepers had
opposed the abundance of geishas at the en-
tertainment recently given to British
sailors.
The latest about the Kwang 81 trouble re-
lates to the appointment of Wang Chin
Chung as governor of the province. Wang
whom the world knows as the ambassador
sent by China to Russia after the retro
CessiOn of the Lao Tung peninsula is said
to have assured the empress dowager that
a majority of the kwang ST rebels are hu-
mane. and that if he were entrusted with
the duty of quelling them he could easily
bring them to listen to reason. The en-
press took him at his word and appoint ed
him to the gOyernorship.

ever since the flight of Jehol, in 1850. the
imperial house had suffered only insults at
the haTds of foreigners. and that to treat
them with consideration was a great mis-
take. the empress dOwager severely con-
demned such doctrine. Only small
span Of life remained to her, she said. and
during that tirle it was her determination
not to involve her country in trouble for
the sake of avenging personal wrongs.
Because the magistrate of Yang Hsien

Christians Causing Trouble.

Now it is the Christians who are causing
trouble in China. The converts of Shan 81
and their priests complain that the indem-

The Hest Remedy for Group.

From the AtchisOn, Kan. Daily Glo6e.)
This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedy for Group is
in demand Ia every neighborhood. One
of the most errible things in the world
is to be aW akened in the middle of the
night by whoop from one of the child
rem. The Group remedies are almost as
sure to be lost, in case of Group, as a re-
volver is sure to be lost in case of burg
lars. There used to be an old fashioned
remedy for Group, known as hive syrup
and tolu, but some modern mothers say
that Chamberlalns Cough Remedy is
better, and does not cost so much 1t
causes the patient to "throw up the
phlegm" quic, er, and gives relief in a
shorter time. Give this remedy as soon
as the croupy cough appears and it will
prevent the attack. 1t never fails and
is pleasant and safe to take. For sale

It is proposed to tax posters in New
York, and legislation is now being
sought for this purpose. The idea Is
to regulate the business and to make
it less tiaring and obtrusive to the det-
riment of the landscape. The measure
is not prohiDitive In its provisions, but
it is so framed that posters and bills
may be displs Jed on the condition that
q tax be paid on them at the rate of
one cent for each two square feet OF
surface. One-third of this revenue is
to go to the state and two-thtrds to the
county where the poster is displayed.
This is no new thing. Posters are taxed
In every country in Europe, ana those
countries are benefited in more ways
than one. The tax has been found to
have restraining influence In various
directions, and the posters do not cover
all outdoors.

 New York, July 9.-In spite of the drive made on Western Union and some of the Gould stocks by the profess sional element, the market held its own we'll and reactions were small, as a rule, with all indications that insiders were the best buyers on the declines.
 The talk of gold exports had but little effect. The agricultural outlook con- tinues very promising. Not only has the weather been all that could have been desired for harvesting wheat, but is just exactly what is needed to make a large crop of corn. A year ago the corn crop was in the middle of a severe drought at this period-how different the situation is to-day; in fact, there is an excess of moisture so that hot wealth. CT is just what the farmers want now.
 We confidently believe that the bull movement in the stock market will be resumed within day or two; the pub lie is also beginning to show more in- terest, which is favorable sign.
 Chicago-The "corner" in July corn has had very little effect on other grains, with the exception of restrict ing trade somewhat. Our advice is to hold wheat and buy more on all reae- tions. .,-s.... ~, .-.. .-
