CHICAGO
is SHAKEN
BY QUAKE

Chicago, Jan. 2.-Forecaster Cox
here today felt an earthquake which
sent a slight tremor through Chica-
go at 1921 o'clock this morning.
81 have no instruments to record
the intensity of quakes here said
Cox, but | distinctly felt the distur-
bance in my Office 1t was an east
and west vibration and lasted only
couple of seconds"
Many persons at firht thought an
explosion had occurred. Doors of
houses and buildings were jammed,
china toppled from pedestals and
water bottles on restaurant tables
rocked, while chandeliers threatened
to come down.
At Joliet several buildings rocked
on their foundations, threatening to
collapse, and greatly alarming the
inhabitants. 1t was feared that the
prisoners in the state penitentiary
would be caught in their cells and
the widest panic reigned for some
time. Prison guards stuck to their
posts, however, and prepared to re
lease the prisoners in case occasion
arose.
The quake was also felt at Dekalb,
Aurora, Lockport, Yorkville, Men
dota, Sandwich and Waukegan. No
damage is reported.
The last earthquake felt in Chicago
occurred in March, 1909, when build
ings were Jared

An engagement with a girl and the
lack of money with which to meet it
was the reason assigned to Judge
Kelly by Carol Ostrander this morn
ing for taking $3.50 from the person
of Clayton Havelin in show house
several months ago. e. y
Incidentally Ostrander also told the
court that If certain circumstances
arose he would repeat the offense,
and the court, with the view of giving
him an opportunity to, reflect upon
the seriousness of the offense gave
him 60 days in jail
Says He Would Steal.
Ostrander is young, just 10 years
of age, and when he pleaded guilty
and asked that sentence be imposed at
once, the judge evidently, with the
view Of making the sentence light,
asked for an expression from the boy
as to what his attitude would be with
regard to repeating the offense.
THAT would depend on circum-
stances" said Ostrander. "If had a
good job and steady work, and did not
need the money, would not, But II
l needed it for living | would"
"Did you commit the offense be-
cause you needed it to live?"
mo" replied Ostrander, ~ had an
engagement with girl, and did not
have the money to keep it."
Judge ReprimandS Him.
"In view of the fact that the de-
fendant is young, and that he pleaded
guilty, the court had intended to i'm
pose the minimum sentence in this
case," said Judge Kelly, in imposing
sentence Of 60 days on Ostrander.
"He has shown a defiance to the
laws of the country, however, and
there is nothing to justify the sugges.
tion made by him that under given
circumstances he would repeat the of.
fense The fact that a person is out
of work does not justify crime Moth
ing is more reprehensible than for q
person to take the attitude that crime
is justifiable, and it may, in meas.
ure, be eXcusable, but not justifiable
"In order to give you sufficient time
to reflect on the seriousness of the
crime" said the court, in concluding
"and with the hope that you may
change your views, | sentence you tC
60 days in the county jail"

BRINGS SUIT AGAINST
THE OREGON ELECTRIC

Alleging that the Oregon Electric
Railroad company is falling to live up
to its right of way contract, d. C..
Mimic has commenced suit in the cir
cult court asking that it be restrained
from violating its terms and also
asking $1,000 damages
He says that he decided the COM
pany right of way across his 300
acre ranch; that in constructing its
road, the embankment extends be-
yond the boundary lines agreed upon;
that the company has made excaya-
tions on his land, and that its agents
are trespassing on his land by leav-
ing machinery upon it.
