At 8:46 p. m. the observers at the
Georgetown university observatory
noted that the needle ON the seismo-
graph was beginning to tremble. This

were first observed, they continued
for Al minutes, growing stronger and
stronger until 1856 o'clock, when they
diminished in strength, but did not
entirely subside until 9:33. The Pc
culiar and unusual feature of these
shock indications was the fac. that
they were recorded with almos, equal
violence on both seismcgraphs, the
vertical and the horizontal.
That both should have been disturb

taken to show that the disturbance

DEATH NOT UNEXPECTED
YOUNG MAN WHILE WORKING ON

WAS SHOCKED AND FELL 20
FEET TO GROUND.

Without regaining consciousness,
Henry p. Christman, who was terribly
burned with electric wires yesterday,
died about eight o'clock this morning
at the Reid Memorial hospital. Death
resulted from a blood clot formed on
the brain. In falling Christman
dropped on his feet, breaking a blood
vessel in the lower part Of his head.
1t is said to be rare that a man dies
from an electric shock unless death is
instantaneous.
The accident occurred at West Main
and Second street. Christman drop
ped twenty feet to the ground after
being struck by the current. He fell
backwards striking his head on the
curb. No marks were found on the
head in the examination by physicians.
Blood, however. ran freely from the
mouth.
The dead man was taken to the un-
dertaking parlors of Doan and Klute,
where the body was prepared for i'm

Christman's home. Miss Emma Christ
man of Bucyrus will accompany the
body home.
Little hope was entertained for re-
covery after Christman was examined
by the doctors. A deep burn on the
leg and a small scratch under the
chin were the only marks on the body.

\ MEXICAN CENTENARY.
washington Herald.)


Mexico next year will celebrate the
centenary of the beginning of its re-
volt against Spanish rule, which re-
suited in independence after years
of struggle. Hdalgo, the priest who
led the rebellion, met with crushing
defeat, yet his motives have rema n
ed unquestioned, and his memory is
to receive high honors. He lived in
medieval days, but the celebration is
to be modern and practical. At Sal
tillo, where he once lived, the citi-
zens propose to observe the centenary
by paving streets, and in other parts
of Mexico public improvements are
to be inaugurated The federal gov
ernment also has extensive plans for
carrying out the same idea. Its
program calls for an expenditure Of
nearly $1,000,000 on schools, chari-
table institutions, the national mu-
scum, public monuments and parks.
Whatever may go to mere show,
there is to be fine lot of perman-
ent improvements to make the cele-
brat,on memorable. This seems like
northern program. If it could in
clude demonstration of improved
conditions of labor, there would be
added reason for rejoicing.

THE ROAD TO FAME.

A Southerner noted for the liberal
ity of his tips, stopped at a Balti-
more hotel where negro porters pre-
dominated. HIS name was speedily
known to every member of the serv-
ing fraternity, and his every wish an
ticipated. Soon after his arrival he
sent his card to a friend who made
his home in the hotel, but whose tenn
permanent happened to be quite the
opposite of that of his open-handed
caller-retiring, not given to tip
ping" or any other form of sociabil-
ity, and who therefore lived almost
unknown to those about him.
The old "darky" who received the
card studied 1t for a full minute.
'Scuse me, colonel" he said, "but
I don't b'leebe nobody by dat name
come here dis mawnin'."
This morning!" returned the 9TH
er. "Of course not! Mr.. Blank has
lived here for months. You know
my name we'll enough, and 1 haven
been here day. Do you mean tC
say you can't remember a man who
has made his home here since some
