EARTHQUAKE ROCKS
TOWNS IN MEXICO
Capital of State Of Guerrero Is
Reported Destroyed.
uTMosr PANIC NOW PREVAILING
Many Persons Are Reported Dead and
Great Numbers Have Been Badly In
Jured--Telesraphlc Communication
With Outside World Is Cut OF.

Chilpancingo. Mexico, April II -
This city has been completely de-
stroyed BY one OF the most furious
earthquakes that has ever visited this
section. The known dead number
eleven, and the badly injured twenty
seven. Among the dead are the wife
of Postal Inspector leopold Lopez
Guerra, and the child OF Jose Ale
man, the postmaster OF the city. Jose
Lopez Martinez, manager Of the fed
erai telegraph Office, was struck on
the head by block Of stone and bad
ly injured. The utmost panic pre-
walls everywhere, and people are fee
ing to the open country. The earth
continues to rock at half-hour inter-
walls, and many minor shocks are COM
pleting the work of destruction of the
first earthquake.
Number Of Victims Large.
Word has reached here that the
town Of chilapa has also been laid
waste AS yet no details have been
received as TO the rumber of the dead
and wounded, but Il is feared that the
number will be large.
This city is the capital Of the state
of Guerrero, and four years ago was
visited by an earthquake which killed
and wounded many of IT'S Inhabitants
and destroyed a large part OF the Ilt-
tie town. The population Of the
town is 7,49s, and until the panic
into which the citizens have been
thrown abates some, It win be Inn
possible TO state just what the recent
earthquake has decreased Il. The pop
ulation Of the city Of ChiIaps Is 15,-
600. and that place Is the home of the
bishop OF the Roman Catholic church
who administers the ecclesiastical Rf-
fairs OF the entire region. No word
has been received from the bishops
palace. and It Is not known at this
time whether or not be was a victim
of the shock.
Midway between the cities of Chill
pancingo and Chilaps Is located the
city OF Tixtla. This Is q prosperous
and progressive community. and as NJ
word has been received from that
place, II Is feared that It also has
been destroyed

He Set En- Up.

c. V. Johnson, the popular Troy
druggist, has just installed new cash
register, and thereby hangs tale.
Vic placed his order for register a
long time ago, but owing to the delays
in 1ailr5ad traffic was disappointed by
the nonaarrival of the register. But he
never lost hope. Monday morning,
April 1st, the big dray team drove up
and few moments later second dray
came along. One wagon had on board
a box labeled &C. V. Johnson, Troy,
Idaho,' and it was a ca h register box,
too. The second wagon had two
large, heavy planks, used to unload
heavy boxes, and as the register
weighed $50 pounds, they were util-
rzed for that purpose. No sooner did
the box reach the inside than Mr.
Johnson proceeded to extract the con-
tents. The lid, bearing the warning,
handle with care," was carefully re-
moved. By this time the store was
crowded with people who had Just
dropped in'' to see the new register,
just as though a cash register was a
curiosity. Well, Mics was. The lid
removed, the druggist, with a smile
that reached from ear to ear, peeped
into the box. His face grew serious,
and then he looked again. The crowd
waited, and then it was plain that
something was wrong. In the box
snugly tucked away were $50 pounds
of brickbats. Mr., Johnson suddenly
realized that it was April FOOLS day,
and with smile that reminded one Of
sick cat he drawled: We'll, that's
an awfully funny joke, aint it?" Then
he set up the cigars. And such cigars!
Before the boys knew what had hap
pened the druggist had turned the joke
and had the whole bunch splitting fire.
The mouth end of the Havanas had
been dipped in liquid extract oi
Cayenne pepper. This relieved Vic's
feelings, and the other fellows are still
wondering who got the worst of the
deal. The joke was the work of Clar-
ence Larsen, who utilized the box ir
which his father had once got a regis
ter. Cooper & Fildes donated the use
of two drays, and some others were or
to the game in time to see Mr.. John
son open the box. 1t might be il
place to add that the real cash registe
has since arrived and that everything
around the drug store is now lovely.

MOSCOW NOT TOUGH.
A Bad Reputation the Result Of
A Knocking Home
Newspaper.

While in Moscow last Monday the
News editor was taken to task for the
article of last week in which we called
Moscow a tough town. So far as the
News editor is concerned we will give
our word right here that there was not
a single bit of truth in the article, SO far
as it referred to Moscow. Yet the
article was absolutely true. 1t was true
in so far as it stated facts which every
citizen of Moscow must admit. And
the article was published that the citi-
zens of Moscow may realize something
of the ex.ent of the damage being done
Moscow by a paper published in
Moscow by a citizen, or company of
citizens, of Moscow. The News editor
owns property in Moscow, and has
nothing but the warmest feeling for
that town. We contributed to the
funds that were raised to bring the
electric road to Moscow, and rejoiced
when we knew that the road was
assured. We were glad when a public
building was given the county seat
town, and pleased to know that suffic-
cient funds were forthcoming to
rebuild the University of Idaho at
Moscow. And while, during the past
year, Mo oscow paper, the Journal,
was doing all in its power to tear down
the splendid public schools of Moscow,
the Troy News did all it could to build
them up by pointing out the folly
of the strife engendered by the Journal,
While the Moscow Journal was creating
discord among the citizens in Moscow
and bowling about high taxes the Troy
News pointed out the many improve
ments that had been brought about in
Moscow that had made high taxes
necessary.
And the article that made some
Moscow people call the News editor
bad names was written, not to hurt
Moscow; but to emphasize the harm
full policy of the Moscow Journal. We
desire to show, by quo ii lg the Moscow
Journal, that the worst things that
can possibly be said about Moscow
have been and are being said
daily by the Moscow Journal under the
editorship of Col. Henry c. Shaver and
the management of one Fletcher. L
certainly shows poor taste to condemn
US for quoting nothing more abou
Moscow than is published abou
Moscow by a citizen of Moscow in &
Moscow paper. And we know wha
we are talking about, for we have the
files of the Moscow Journal in our offic,
to prove it.

LET TROY CLEAN UP
The Town Must Hustle to Keep
Pace With the COunty's
Growth.

Troy has wide reputation for being
a lively business place. The place is
increasing in wealth and population,
but not at rate equal to the develop
ment of the surrounding country. First
impressions go long way in persons
decision to stop or pass on to some
other place, First impressions are
made from outward appearances-it
may be the nearby roads, the village
streets or the outward appearance Of
the buildings. A town, like man or
woman, can have but little attraction
to stranger if it does not wear out
ward signs of thrift. A business man
will lose his customers if he undertakes
to save ten cents by wearing his shirt
more than the regulation time. 1t
pays big dividends to keep up outward
appearances, especially where there is
SO much to back it up.

Don't Pay.

Buying goods insight and unseen
does not pay. There is no end Of
proof, and new evidence is showing
up every day. The latest is cutter
that was shipped from Sears & Roebuck
to resident of this section. The cut
ter, which is really but poor excuse at
best, now stands in a dilapidated old
crate at the east end of the depot, and
will either be shipped back to Chicago
at the expense of the catalogue house
or left to rot in some junk shop. The
man who ordered the cutter looked it
over and walked away. He didn't
consider it worth the freight. And it
isn't. 1t is the cheapest thing in the
way of cutter one could imagine and
the man who would risk his neck in il
would count life of little value.
Marked at S1.o8 a sensible man would
turn away in disgust. 1t wouldn't
make decent kindling wood. If posi-
BILE we intend to purchase the cutter
and put it on exhibition along with
