Half-Expected Shock.
thquakes in California expected a

earthquakes in California expected a
disturbance.
To certain extent their expecta-
tions are now fulfilled, but fortunate
ly the Santa Barbara earthquake is
much less severe and much less gen
eral in effect than some seismologiSts
have feared it might be. There is
now little reason to anticipate any
severe shock in the immediate future.
We shall experience the usual crop
of after tremors, but they will grad
ually die away as the rocks return
to their normal condition Of elastic
strain.
Recording Stations.
The expectations of seismologists in
regard to the coming Of the Santa
Barbara shock were of general nature
only because we have not yet eStab-
lished the recording stations, which
If set up throughout the coast region
of California would enable us to for
see such occurances. The Carnegie
Institution of Washington Is now en-
gagged in establishing stations at Pasa-
dena, Riverside, La Jolla and other
points of southern California, where
instruments designed to record local
tremors will be set up.
All of the stations will operate in
the principal station at Pasadena and
the records which they will yield will
enable us to fix the focus of even the
slightest tremors within SO or 60 miles
of the stations. AS the records are
continuous we shall know exactly
where the earthquake strain is gather
ing and how 1t increases or diminishes
from day to day or month to month.
In the course of time a chain of
stations of this character will no
doubt be established from San Diego
to the Oregon line. But it will have
to be done through the cooperation
of the communities interested and will
not be accomplished until public opin-
ion is educated to an understanding
of the advantage of knowing all that
we can about earthquakes and the
methods of protecting ourselves
against their effects.

WOMAN'S VICTORY
PLEASES COOLIDGE
Election Of Mrs. J. J. Rogers
to House Reflects G. o. P.
Strength.
By DAVID LAWRENCE.

SWAMPSCOTT. Mass, July o.
President Coolidge was very much
pleased by the outcome Of the special
election in which Mrs. John Jacob
late husband as Representative in
Congress from the fifth Massachusetts
district.
No Democratic claim can be made
that the Presidents strength in his
homo State is waning or that there
Is 4 recklessneSs in the body polite
which BODIES Ill for the Republican
hold on Congress.
1t was a straight-out Republican
victory, even though the vote cast
was rela lively small. Proportionately,
however. Mrs. Rogers won by a larger
vote than her husband ever did.
Vote Sentimental.
To a large extent the vote was sen.
ttmental. 1t usually has turned out
that way, irrespective of party, in the
few cases In which a widow has sue.
ceeded her husband to public office.
But Mrs. Rogers made a good cam
paign. She didn't forget, for instance,
TO be photographed with the President
on his arrival in Salem last week, and
she has handled the issues of the cam
paigH-the tariff was paramount
with the skill of an experienced poll
ttctan.
1t is significant that conservative
New England sent a woman to Con-
gress at all. although this was much
moro noteworthy Of comment when
Mrs. Rogers won the Republican
nomination. Massachusetts, was not
one of the States that clamored for
woman suffrage; in fact on every
occasion when a vote was taken near
ly every city in the State turned it
down.
But times have changed, and the
precedent set up in other States has
robbed the situation of its novelty.
Women have held public Office with
out detriment to masculine interests,
and Massachusetts is quite willing to
take a. chance on the level head of
Mrs. John Jacob Rogers.
The Democratic nominee, of course,
had something to do with Mrs. Rogers
overwhelming victory. He was Eu-
gene n. Foss, at one time in Congress
himself, and also Governor of Masa-
chusetts.
Considered for Cabinet.
President Wilson thought SO much
OF him as to consider Mr.. Foss a DOS.
sible member Of his cabinet in 1913.
1t was the tariff viewpoint of Gov.
osS tndl prouSnt MIN 10 Mr. VIII
sons attention. But a tariff reduc-
ZIONIST in New England is about as
popular as a militarist in Kansas.
And. besides, the recent expressions
from Senator Butler and President
Coolidge have solidified sentiment on
the tariff in this section, so that the
mere suggestion Of tinkering with the
tariff Is enough to rally the Repub-
hcans to their traditional standard.
The district itself is normally Re
publican, so political inferences are
hard to draw from the result.
There Is joy nevertheless in the
Coolidge camp that the election is over
and from now on Senator Butler and
his lieutenants in the Republican ma
tional committee will give their atten-
ton to the situation in Wisconsin and
North Dakota.

Tiger With Bad Record

The man-eating tiger of Kodu, Bur-

Weekly. The natives called him Tiger
with Mans Brain" because of his cum
ming and holiness.
At first the tiger attacked natives
in the jungle, then came into the vii
lagos even in daylight. The terrorized
villagers built shelves in their homes
and high platforms, but couldn't escape
that way. Believing the brute led u
charmed life, the people nearest his
lair finally fled to other settlements.
A British hunter took up the trail.
Finding half-eaten native. the hunt
er hid in a tree, as 1t was the AMI
malls habit to return to his victims.
When the tiger came, one shot through
the beast killed him, The beast was
ten feet -long. The natives look upon
the Britisher as supernatural being
sent by their gods.

HOW TO SOLVE A CROSSWORD PUZZLE
Safety or Disaster
Matter of Speculation

An amusing story is told illustrating
the comforts of sea travel of genera
ton or SO ago. 1t concerns nervous
old lady who booked a passage aboard
tramp steamer bound from an east
African port to Karachi.
After few. days at sea a terrific
storm broke, and the ramshackle
tramp steamer began to reel and
plunge violently. Clutching her way
along the deck, the passenger presently
reached the captains cabin, where
she found that worthy mariner
porting over dirty piece of parch-
ment.
"Are we safer she gasped.
Madame" replied the skipper, "you
see this 'er thing I ave in front Of
me. Well, it is a chart of the Indian
ocean. On it you will observe there is
lot of little black dots. Now, madam,
If those dots Is dirt we're all right.
But If they're rocks, madam, we're
bound for Kingdom Come"
