Scope Of Earthquake.
| Washington, Jan. 17.-The weather
bureau has issued the following bulle-
| tin: !
1.-THE earthquake recorded at the
| weather brreau on Monday afternoon
| Is undoubtedly a record of the earth
| quake that is reported to have de-
| stroyed Kingston at the same hour.
| Judging from the magnitude of
| the motion recorded at Washington.
| weNregard the present disturbance as
of relative slightly intensity compar-
| ed with other great earthquakes, as
for example. that at San Francisco ,,
| Valparaiso and the great earthquake
in the Indian ocean october 1. The
| Oh ire mutton at WdSnlnS-
/ ton in the present case was distinctly
less than in each of the other earth
quakes and we may therefore conclude
that the violence. of one at Kingston
was also less"

Others Gould do Same.

Mr.. c. E. Summer has a lot con-
tanning three-fourths of an acre in
mis- home lot, which he planted in
oats this year and from it gathered
eighty dozen bundles, which would
have averaged more than one bushel
to the dozen bundles. He then planted
this same ground in corn and has
gathered five hundred bundles of fod-
der and fifty bushels Of corn. He
will thus make at very little expense
on less than one acre of land more
than enough feed for one horse. What
he has done on this small lot of land
could be done on large scale by
nearly all of our farmers if they
would only cultivate and fertilze pro-
perly.

A CALL TO CITY DEMOCRACY.
To Meet to Provide for Nominees
Mayor and Alderman and Two
Trustees to be Elected

The executive committee Of the
Democratic party for the city of
N'wbrrry held Il meeting on Salur-
day night and decided to call Il meet
ln= Of the party in council chamber
on Friday evening, November |. The
various positions Of mayor and add
crman and school trustees shall be
nominated by primary cldetion or
by convention. II Is probable, of
course. that the primary will be
adopted. us has been the custom for
several years, but us we understand
it. the meeting that is called will
have the power l." nominate candi-
dates without the primaries.
In the event that il is decided to
nominate by primhry election the
mcctin" will adopt rules and re .,la-
tions and fix the time for the primal
rica.
AS we understand it, in addition
t" the n":nination &C. mayor: and aid
crmen. there are two members of The
board Of trustees of the graded school
to be elected this year. At. the clcc-
ti"n las! year, all five were elected
and they were to draw lots 50 that
tw" would be elected this year for
two years and three elected next
year for two years, and alternate in
TINS way cvrcy two years Those
whose election comes up this year,
arc j. NJ. Davis, from ward ). and
John II. Wicker, from ward t.
The election for commissioner Of
public works will not take place un-
til next year.
at the last meeting of the citiz-
ems one year ago a resolution was
adopted instructing city council to
take steps to have an election on
the proposition of dividing the city
into ten wards and have aldermen
and mayor elected for two years and
so arranged that five aldermen
would be elected each year. For
some reason the proposition WAS ncv-
or submitted to the people of the
community. This question will again
be brought before the meeting on
November !. There should be full
attendance of the democracy.
