Roswell People Felt Shock.

At least a dozen people nave re
ported that they felt a distinct, tho
short and slight, earthquake at 5:15
yesterday morning. None of them
said anything about feeling the
shock, however until last evening
after they had read in the Record
of the earthquake at Tucumcarl and
the Mescalero Indian reservation
This confirmed what they had been
slow about mentioning, lest they be

Washington, Sept. 29.-Considering
the original cost of the building, it's
size and the substantial character of
the materials composing it., the White
House costs a very large sum of money
each year for maintenance, repairs, re-
furnishing and rclecorating. The
amount set apart by each session Of
congr ess varies with the needs. but it
is seldom, or never, under $4,000, and
at times it is IS much AS 100000 to
$l25,000. For the present fiscal wear
the amount is $4,000, distributed as
follows: r. ''..zs.-s r,
For a new iron fence around the
White House grounds, $4,000; for the
ordinary maintenance Of the buildings
and grounds, $4,000; for extraordinary
repairs, $35,0O0; for fuel, $4,000; for
maint enance of the greenhouse and
grounds, $4,000, and for repairs in the
greenhouse $4,000. Total, $92, 900
1t is only three years since the White
House was thoroly overhauled and re-
modelled, at a cost of about half mil
lion dollars. This remodeling left moth
ing o.. the old building except the out
side walls. All the floors and parti-
lions were taken out, and in many in
stances changed, altho the size and
shape OF the familiar parlors or the
main floor were not interfercd with.

board of park commissioners, and viz
tual father of the city's park system.
"There is no question but that the
falls have receded from the Mississippi
during the centuries, and neither is
there any question but that erosion is
steadily eating away the sandstone I'M
derneath the falls, and that the lime
stone ledge may sometime break away
from lack of support.
There has been great deal Of
water going over the falls all summer;
too much, in fact. And the possible
diversion of Bassett IS creek would
make a still greater volume Of water
