LATTER FOLLOWED TIDAL WAVE
WHICH DROWNED LARGE NUM-
BER-VISITATION IN sUMATRA
OCCURRED LAST WEEK.

PADANG, Sumatra. June 9.-The
town OF Korinchi. 1S5 miles to the
southeast of Pedang, was destroyed
by an earthquake on June 3. Two
hundred people were killed and many
others injured. The shock was ac-
companied by a tidal wave which
swept aawy the native huts.
The shock came in the night and
created great terror. Many houses
were thrown down and some persons
were killed by being caught under
ruins. All rushed into the streets
in panic. Many fed to the hills and
thus saved their lives.
The great destruction of life was
worked by the tidal wave. It ran in
on the town and drowned the people
in the streets, most of whom had
sought the water front While the
estimate OF two hundred is made
upon the dead there is every reason
fer belief that the number drowned
was alone much larger than this.

MAKES PLUCKY FIGHT
Los Angeles Finds Dallas College
Worthy OppOnent-Oregons Win
Two More Games.

The score of 81 to II made by the
Los Angeles basketball team when it
defeated the Dallas College ~aggrega-
tion Wednesday night gives no idea,
except to those who witnessed the con-
test, of how close and exciting it really
was.
In veiw Of the fact that the Los
Angeles team has been ranking itself
in championship class, the game is,
in reality, virtual victory for the
Dallas aggregation, some of the
members of the visiting five even
going so far, in their disgust at hav-
ing allowed what they referred to as a
"kid team" defeat them, as to admit
that they regarded it almost as a
defeat.
When the game was arranged, the
Dallas team, crippled as it was by the
loss Of its three strongest men, had no
hope of winning, but went into the
play with the intention Of doing every
thing possible to hold the score down
to a small figure.
Although outmatched by the Wis
itors in height, weight and individual
strength, they went into the game like
whirlwind and to the utter surprise
of themselves, the spectators and, most
Of all, their opponents, played large
and fancy circles around the Los
Angeles men.
At the end of the first half the score
stood II to in favor Of Dallas. In
the beginning Of the second, Ridge
way at forward raised it to 13. Los
Angeles soon scored from the field
and then with sensational shot from
the center of the field, tied the score on
10. Here the score stood until the half
began to draw to close, when the
Los Angeles five at last swung into
the lead and gradually hammered the
score up to 27. The Dallas team
played desperately and brilliantly to
avert the inevitable, but the superior
endurance of its opponents hardened
by steady playing night after night,
was too much for them.
By the end of the half they were
completely exhausted, Enthusiastically
defeated, as the score was concerned,
but had the satisfaction Of knowing
that they had put up one Of the stiff
est, pluckiest. and most scientific
fights In the face Of enormous odds,
that had ever been witnessed on the
local basketball court
The Oregons, the representatives OF
the basketball playing prowess Of
Dallas 10 the East, have added two
more victories to their list since Mon
day, winning from Lincoln, Nebraska,
by a score Of 40 to IL, Tuesday night,
and from Peru, Nebraska, Wednes-
day night by score of 81 to IL.
The dispatch from the Lincoln
game was signed by r. A. VanOrsdel,
formerly a student Of Dallas College,
and at one time manager Of the bas-
ketball team. The Oregons left Peru
yesterday for Cheyenne. They are
now we'll started on their return trip
and it will be matter of but few
weeks until they will be on the Pacific
Coast and on familiar ground again.

ASTRAY ON PARTY GODS.
Jeffersonian Homage Long Paid to
Patrick Henry's Picture.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 23.-
Never again will Democratic senators
allow their eyes to dwell reverently
on the alleged portraits of the
Fathers that hang in the senate cor
ridors, for today they learned with
pain and dismay that the supposed
portrait of Jefferson, to which for
years they had as it were, made their
vows, was in reality portrait of
henry, while supposed portrait of
Henry was really that of Jefferson.
Curiously enough, the discovery of
the mix UP was made by Eugene w.
Chain, of Chicago, last years Pro-
hibition candidate for the presidency
of the United States. Mr.. Chain was
at the capitol today for the purpose
of being admitted to practice before
the supreme court. He is an expert
in early American portraits, and as
soon as he saw the one labeled
Thomas Jefferson he declared the
Father of Democracy never sat for it..
When he discovered the picture label
ed Patrick Henry, in an upstairs cor
ridor, the riddle was quickly solved.
