BEER FLOATS IN.
Long Drouth at Fort Sloc1m Relieved
in an Unusual Manner.

New York, Aug 27.-Twenty-five
kegs of beer defied the canteen law by
floating into Fort Slocum yesterday
and did much to relieve the pangs of
inconsistencies among the recruits.
The ship Mary Gordon, plying be-
tween this city and New Rochelle, had
a deck load of beer on board when
she was caught by the wash of big
steamer off City Island. She rolled
so far that she spilled about fifty kegs
of beer into Long Island sound and
rs of them went straight for Fort
SIOcurn.

A QUAKE ON SUNDAY
People State Today That Rich

Tremblings.
ONE WOMAN MUCH ALARMED

That the seismic disturbances of
early yesterday morning were general
ly felt In this city. came to light today.
Those who felt the disturbance state
they were afraid of being hooted at
in proclaiming that this city was in
the path OF an earthquake. 1t is now
claimed by some that there was a very
slight shock Sunday morning. early.
One woman in describing her exper-
fence Sunday morning said that she
was awakened by her bed gently toss
ing back and forth. Although greatly
frightened at the immediate time, she
regained confidence soon after her bed
became anchored again, and went to
sleep. Yesterday morning when she
was awakened by the same experience
she began to doubt her sanity. She
remained awake long time, trying
to convince herself, that she was not
dreaming. Mr.. and Mrs. Ray K Shive-
ley were awakened yesterday morning
by their bed tossing. They also heard
the noise. which sounded like an ex-
plosion. They thought 1t was under
the house and Mr. Shiveley went on a
tour Of Investigation. He carefully in
spected the cellar and finding nothing
wrong there, visited every room on
the first floor, thinking that something
might have fallen causing the NOISE.
