the Imperial valley of California and
its cluster of little cities are partly in

Seven or eight persons are dead in
Mexicali No dead are reported from
other valley points. Mexicali is a lit
tie adobe town, consisting principally
of saloons, gambling halls and other
resorts not permitted on the Ameri-
can side, that lies across the stream
from Calexico.
The roar of the trembler below the
border was the first warning the peo-
pie of the valley had That was about
S-p. m. The first shock was the
most severe. Two others followed
Confusion in Darkness.
Electric lights went out all over the
valley After the first shock the
stricken towns were in darkness, ex-
eept for the light furnished by blaz-
ing buildings. The greatest confu-
sion reigned everywhere.
AS far as can be learned the shocks
were severest down at the border and
below the border and grew less and
less the further north ii went, so that
Calipatria and INLAND appear to have
been injured slightly; much less than
the towns in the south end of the val
ley. The earthquake extended all the
way to Yuma, Ariz
The duration of the first shock was
about thirty seconds. This was fol-
lowed half an hour later by a second
shock almost as severe as the first
Plate glass windows, flimsy brick
walls and hollow tile structures were
more or less damaged. No one in Inn
perial valley was killed. Those who
lost their lives in Mexicali were kill
ed when a wall fell.

New News Of Yesterday
A Famous Preacher of the
Last Century
By Holland.

With the exception of men who
gained distinction as Presidents Of
the United States. and some who Sc
cured renown as soldiers, there prob
ably never lived an American whose
name was more frequently appro-
pristed by fond parents for the chris
tening of their sons than Edward
Payson. In the mid-years of the past
century it was not possible to look
through a directory without discover
ing that great many of the names
recorded in II had as Christian names
that of Edward Payson. In 1850 it
was reported that there were thous-
ands of young men in the United
States whose Christian names we're
Edward Payson. It was also reported
that in a Philadelphia newspaper
there appeared on one day death no
tices of three lads not of kin, but of
different families, whose Christian
name was Edward Payson.
Even to this day there are some
now of venerable years who bear the
name of Edward PaysOn as the Chris
tan name and one of the mast famil-
lar examples of this IS Weston, the
pedestrian. WestOn's family lived in
Portland, Me, and il was in that city
that Edward Payson gained a reputa-
tiOn wherever the English language
is spoken for fervent piety and for
capacity TO write and speak upon
religious matters ir such manner as
to appeal TO the heart.
He was still young man when he
died, comparatively speaking, not yet
so years of age. The intellectual
gifts with which he was so greatly
endowed were inherited by his daugh-
ter, Elizabeth Payson. better known
afterward as Elizabeth Payson Prem
tiss.
My father, who was bookseller be-

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY AT
THE FRONT. May 2S.-A mighty
chorus from 100000 throats, sweep
ing down the 50O-miles from the
North Sea to the Swiss border in
thunderous refrain of La Marsel-
laise," greeted the welcome news that
Italy had entered the war against
Austria.
The story of how that message
went flashing along the trenches at
dusk of a brilliant Whitsuntide, how
1t spread to every remote outpost
along the worlds greatest battle front
is without parallel in history.
King Victor Emmanuel signed the
declaration of war in Rome at 2
O'Clock Sunday afternoon. France
was Immediately notified. War Min
lister Millerand flashed il to. General
Joffre at general headquarters.
With scarcely a seconds delay il
went rushing down from army COM
manders to corps commanders ana
successfully down through generals
of divisions TO commanders OF bri-
gades, branching out ianwisc from
each new center until every colonel,
major captain and lieutenant along
the firing line knew that Italy had
entered the lists on the side of the
allies at last.
The message raced on over field
telephone wires-wires strung pre-
cariously through the ruins of dew
astated villages. on forest trees, on
stakes driven in fields OF buttercups
It reached the telephone operators on
the front line observation posts. They
fished il onto the troops blazing away
at the Germans in the trenches a few
yards distant, to the batteries of field
artillery screened behind the hills. tC

Il was now sunset-the hour of tn,
Angelus. All along the line ther'

paused as though in reverence. Fiel'
pieces observed silence as if for
moments devotion on this new day o

Suddenly the strange. almost weir,
silence was broken. Spontaneous.
the troopers began La Marsellaise
at first singing softly then breaking
into a roaring refrain as the word
ran along the battle front in the great
est chorus the world has ever heard.
"Allons enfants de la patrie." the.

The roaring song startled the be
lated field larks, long since grow
used to belching cannon. They ros

with this object in view his honor,
the mayor, appointed a committee
composed of the undersigned five al
dermen, who, in an effort to ascertain
the cause of the strike and seek me-
diation, have conferred frequently
with the manufacturers and strikers,
but have ben unable to bring about
the desired results, the manufacture
ers contending there is nothing to
arbitrate. Women and men employees
brought before the committee have
testified to the payment of extremely
low wages and depIorable working
conditions, to such an extent that it
has aroused the indignation of all
thinking people. Developments have
been such it is deemed necessary
that some Independent interests in
tervene to bring about peace on a
basis fair to all concerned.
eve have therefore concluded that
a committee of the highest type of
citizenship and business integrity,
men in whom the manufacturers
would have confidence, should be
sought out and, having acquainted
themselves with the true conditions,
that they demonstrate their public
spirit by aiding the council committee
in bringing the warning factions to-

After saying all that the head of
the Department of Congress for this
big country did not have the sense
OF the sand to say that this is the
day to set the Tariff figures SO high
that no German dyes could ever be
imported If he had said that much
and Congress had followed the same
short way to sense. there would be
nothing more heard from the wicked
dye monopolies of Germany or any
other country. We should immed-
lately proceed to make a dye monop-
oily here, and the prices would be
over and no war could disturb the
business, and nobody on the outside
Guild boss us for a minute.
Mr.. Redfeld merely pointed out
that the American consumption of
artificial dyestuffs means annually a
,ost OF Sl5,000,000, and that the sup

any day. Cut il off at this end by
making the importation cost more
than the stuff is worth. Be Ameri-

but when il is cut short by the sim
pie statement that the dye industry
needs an American Protective Tariff
IL is easy enough, There is no more
use of talking about controlling the
business of foreign monopolies than
of thawing out the south pole. The
only thing that can be done is TO
make the import duties so high that
they cannot sell their goods in the
United States. II is as simple as the

should be.
p But Secretary Redfield took pains
to inform the Senate that "some of
the largest manufacturers have per-

that what is needed is not a tariff
change. but laws placing a foreign
monopoly on the same basis as an
