HEAVY EARTHQUAKE
ON HAWAII
A TEMBLOR WHICH LASTED TEN
SECONDS, REPEATED ITSELF
AND RANG A BELL.

HILO, May 4.-There was a rather
heavy temblor in this district at 1920
p. m. yesterday, the motion coming
from all points of the compass at the
same time. Dishes ratified on the pam
try shelves and bottles in the saloons
pared each other worse than a Carter
veto of the license bill. The quake
was light for the first two seconds and
increased in violence until the motion
ceased ten seconds later. This is con-
sidered the heaviest shake Hilo has
had in nine years. No damage is re-
ported from the country.
From the Volcano It is learned that
the shock was quite distinct there, but
as well as could be ascertained at the
hour of going to press no material
change was observed in the appearance
of the lake. No one had returned from
the pit, however since the shake occur
red.
At 4:l0 there was another shock as
severe. If not more so, than the first.
The clapper Of the Foreign Church bell
was dashed twice against the bell.
there was considerable excitement
along members Of the japanese colony
and on Furneaux Street, where many
japanese reside, the women ran out of
the houses i'm fear. At Saint Joseph's
Convent there was an overturning of
bottles and dishes, i'm some instances
breaking them. In the saloons where
it is said, there is much glassware eE-
posed, no damage was sustained,
The third and weakest shock occurred
at 6:35 D. m. This one did not amount
to much and was not noticed in some
parts Of town

ELLEFORDS PLAY
TO BIG HOUSE
SUCCESSFUL OPENING LAST
NIGHT OF THEIR FOURTH AN
NUAL SEASON HERE.

With The Belle of Richmond" the
Ellefords opend their fourth annual
season here at the Orpheum last night.
The house was crowded in every part,
and the play was decidedly successful
1t provided an interesting evenings en-
tertainment for the large audience and
passed off well, making an suspicious
opening Of the season. The audience
showed much appreciation, and more
crowded houses may be expected.
Many of the old members Of the COM
pany were remembered by the audience
Pietro Sosso, Charles Elder and Myrtle
Selwyn in leading roles all made hits.
Sosso gave a forceful impersonation Of
the character Of Gerald Gordon and
Elders representation of Col. Lee was
excellent. Miss Selwyn besides play
ing her part very well gave a speciality
which was loudly applauded. Miss
Auda Due the new leading lady of the
company, was excellent i'm the part Of
Nellie Mason, the belle of the play.
George Hernandez Albert Fent, Will
liam Marion, William Osmond and
Grace Lamont were all good i'm their
respective parts, also Anna Dodge,
William Daull and Frank Howe. The
company may be expected to do some
clever work with its other plays. "The
Belle Of Richmond" win be repeated
this afternoon and evening and should
draw well

MUCH OBJECTIONS.

SAUSALITO, april 2i.-Mayor Thorn
as and the Sausalito Trustees tonight
decided by a unanimous vote to in
vestigate the scandal caused by the
dancing of a nude woman at the low
jinks" of the San Francisco Yacht Club
at an early hour of Easter Sunday
morning. There IS a law against such
exhibitions and the trustees, i'm re-
spouse to public clamor, have decided
to proceed against those responsible
for the immodesty.
The dancer was "A Hawaiian. She had
little of the lissome grace supposed to
belong to the daughters Of the tropic
isles. She was over-stout, according
to all report, and she left all her mod
esty with her garments in the dressing
room. Many of the men who saw her
huge cavortngs were a good deal dis
gusted, but others showered her with
silver, and she quit her dancing to
chase the elusive pieces ON money.
But thin or fat, the Fact that she
was as undraped as Venus or Phryne
has shocked all Sausalito. The bushes
have spread to Mill Valley and to Rose.
They have even invaded San Rafael
and gone burning on toward Petaluma.
In fact all Marin county is i'm a sun
set glow of bashful Indignation. The
women are talking of that horrid thing
The men frown over the doings of those
they call the dudes" And it is out Of
this general shock to the modesty Of
the county that the trustees of Sau-
salito tonight decided to take action.
INTEND TO PROSECUTE.
At the meeting tonight Trustee w. j..
Martin moved that in view Of public
charges that had been made about an
exhibition given at the clubhouse ON
Sunday morning, the trustees resolve
themselves into a committee Of the
whole and investigate the affair with a
view to prosecuting and violation Of
the law.
The motion was seconded by Mayor
Thomas, who said that decency requir-
ed the board to take the stand. The
motion passed without a dissenting
vote and the committee now stands
composed a follow: Mayor Thomas,

Trustees W. j. Martin, ID. j. Hughes
Il. II. Shoemaker and l.. G. PistolesL
They will commence the investigation
Immediately and report as soon as
their labors are completed.
The social position and wealth Of the
clubmen will avail them nothing if the
town authorities can locate those re-
sponsible for the exhibition. Marshal
John Harmon today said: IF I'd been
there, you bet l would have stopped
it,"
Mayor Thomas, who is as jealous of
towns fair name as a mother of her
irst born, said when interviewed.
Il don't know anything Of my own
knowledge, because / was not there,
but if l had been there I'd have stop
ped the disgracefu show. l hope we
can get hold Of this i'm such a way that
the Jail doors will close tight on some
one. This thing isn't over yet. Sau-
salito has never been dirty town, and
we will not stand for that kind of
filth
Deputy Sheriff William Mcmillan be-
walled the fact that he did not know
Of it soon enough to take a posse with
him in a raid.
"I'd have headed everyone of those
Nudes present for the county Jail
twelve miles away" he declared, when
spoken to upon the subject
Talk Of criminal prosecution fills the
air. Justice of the Peace j. II. Pryor
is ready to stand by his guns in de-
Tense of the fair name of the town.
When seen re discreetly said:
Il know nothing about the affair, but
am ready to issue warrants when any
one makes complaint"
And now the members of the yacht
club Of which Commodore Morrow is
the head are busily hunting up alibis.
Though there was n large gathering
when the buxom dusSy maiden danced
her hulas, it is hard to find anyone who
viii admit that he was present and still
harder to find a man who threw the
silver. But the hunt Of the trustees
for the culprits has just begun. They
are on the trail and they seem eager to
make a few notable examples.

Queer Names Of Syrian Children.

In Syria the names of children are
very odd. They suggest those of our
Indians, inasmuch as the child's name
is apt to be something which occurred
at the time of its birth--something
which interested the parents. For in
stance, if you were q child of this
country your name In all probability
would be Stuffed Cabbage" or "Ho-

to these. II child falls sick his name

parents thinking that piece of pie OF

they attribute his sickness to the fact
that his name did not agree with him.

WHERE FLOWED HUDSON.
Geological Survey Preparing Exhibit
to Show Rivers Early
Course.

BY the time OF the celebration OF the
three hundredth anniversary Of the
discovery of the Hudson river the
United States geological survey will
have prepared a set OF charts and geo
logical specimens to show the early
history Of the Hudson river.
One point which they will demon
strate is that the Hudson once had
twin channels, one, the smaller, where
the river now flows, and the other, or
greater channel, running from a point
Just above Piermont, at the head OF
the Palisades, due south to the sea.
Students OF glacial history have
known that New York state was for
hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years
buried under a glacier
Here and there where the fee hal
been weakened by the solar warmth
the cap became thinned and the edge
was irregultr and broken. This was
the early condition of q section of the
Ice wedge which first crossed the solid
traprock hills of Rockland and Orange
counties, the irresistible crunchinS
mass picking up and bearing south
ward tons Of loose bouldeTs and sand
stone.
There is evidence that the ice wedge
struck the sandstone hills in the neigh
borhood of Piermont and was detected
southwestward, completely choking the
broad deep waterways then flowing
southwark between the Palisades and
the Jersey highlands around Hackel-
sack an6 to the west
SkiTting the Palisades billions of
tons of stone and ice we're for CEN
turtles working MISUNDERSTANDING
the line of least Northumberland
Newark bay, filing up the valley en-
route with pulverized debris Of trap
sandstone, pebbles and dirt.
Prior to the DETECTION ages and ages
ago the western river channel was a
majestic stream beside which the east
ern channel was a mere rivulet. The
river was from three to five leagues III
width and swept in a mighty flood
over the Hackensack meadows to Join
the ocean in the region Of Staten
island.
While 1t Is believed that the present
channel of the river was in existence
at the same time. there IS reason to
believe that had the great western
channel not been filled with the debris
the eastern channel would eventually
have dried up. Thus an island 30
miles long and dozen miles wide
would to-day be the site of New York,
Jersey City, Hoboken, Englewood aId
Fielmont.
Having, as the geological explorers
have reason to believe, efiectualiy
closed the mouth of the western river
channel around what is now known as
Piermont, or between Piermont and
Nyack, a giant splinter Of the greater
wedge broke of and ground its way
along the east face Of the Palisades. 1t
is also believed to have considerably
deepened the eastern river channel, In
fact, to have increased the size OF the
channel from sort Of brawliug tor
rent or brook to It's present proper
lions.

America, and become a citizen again

could do 1t, for he said he had rather
work in slaughter house in America
than be a grand duke in England.
Il never saw dad look so sorry for a
man as he did for Astor, and he told
him the only way was to sell out his
ranch in London and go back on an
emigrant ship, take out his first pa
pers, vote the democratic ticket and
eventually become a citizen. Astor
was thinking over the proposition, and
dad had asked him IL he was not
afraid of dynamiters, when he shud-
dered and said every day he expected

smelled something burning and said
the smell reminded him Of an AmerI-
