QUAKE NORTH OF FRISCO.
Three Sharp Shocks Shatter Chimney
 and Windows at Eureka.

Eureka, Cal, Aug. 1S--Three sharp earthquake shocks, which knocked down more than a hundred chimneys, shattered about forty plate-glass win dows in the business section, broke much crockery in the houses, and sent people scurryng from their beds into the streets, occurred here early today The damage reported is estimated at between $2,000 and $3,000.
 The first and sharpest shock came at 2:5S a. m. It was almost as severe as the one felt here on April IS, 1906. At 30S a slighter shock was experienced followed by a third at 5:30 o'clock. The
 first shock caused practically all the damage. Besides shaking, down many chimneys and breaking crockery, the quake caused the statue of Minerva on the county court house grounds to drop her heavy staff, which crashed through the roof into Superior Judge Hunts court room.
 The shocks extended as far north as Blue Lake, twenty-five miles from Eu- lreka, where some crockery was brok- en and half dozen ohimneys knocked down. The shocks seem to have been confined to a small area. Vibrations were from southwest to northeast. Eureka is on the coast, 215 miles north of san Francisco.

SUICIDE IS ROLLED
Youth Trys to Die on Broadway but
 Cartridges Were Blanks.

New York, Aug 1S-A youth stood in front of the Flatron building on Broadway this afternoon and attracted large crowd by waving a revolver Suddenly with dramatic gesture, he pointed the weapon at his breast and pulled the trigger Men and women turned their heads away as the sup posed suicide sank to the walk.
 An ambulance surgeon, summoned from Bellevue hospital, made futile search for the wound. When the re- volver was examined it was found that the cartridges were blanks. It is thought that the dealer from whom the youth purchased the blanks suspected his purpose and substituted the blanks for the leaden loaded kind. At the hos- pital the youth gave his name as Ar mond Wenk, 20 years old of Riverside, N. J. He was held for observation.
