The panic was something awful, and never did find out how many were hurt. Our home was blown up at midnight Wed nesday night and buried our trunks and took our bedclothes and cases and lied and for three days and nights we lived on cheese and crackers and slept In the streets, and couldn't tell you how many miles we walked. And thus escaped on a government tug boat and arrived to the ferry and then to Oak land landing at a friend's house at h o'clock at night, toot-sore and weary: but, thank (iod, we were alive.

After we recovered somewhat and could return, we looked for our trunks and succeded in locating them but cooldn't touch them for fear of being shot, and when we were allowed to touch them, some one got there first and stole one and broke the locks oil the other two and took everything but the pictures. So we practically lost everything. 1 managed to save one good suit that is all. I might write you all day and then could not tell you half of this terrible disaster, so will close. I am coming home for a short stay as soon as I can arrange transportation. Hoy Katon can probably give you the best descrip tion of the quake.

Mason Drowned in Missouri River Near Rulo Thursday Afternoon. llulo, Neb., May I.--A brother of the drowned man found float lug dow n the river yesterday arrived here late last night . and Identified the dead man as his brother, .1.0. Mason TV trown vllle. The body was prepared for burial last evening, and on account of Its badly decomposed condition would have been hurled last niht had not some of the ell lens here been si rongly opposed to it. They thought someone might Identify It, which was done soon afterward. The coroner from Falls City came to view the body, and de cided an imiuest unnecessary. It seems now that the drowned man and his associate, Mr. ('oilman of Itrownville, Neb., have been here a good many times, and that they, on the evening of April 21, attempted to cross the river here in a skllf In the night, and both were drowned, as neither one of them had been seen or heard of until the body of Mason was secured yesterday. Mason's head was not broken, as was lirst reported. Ills coat was pulled partly on, as If he attempted to re move his clothing in the water. Many are of the opinion t hat he was drowned near here, anil his body lay under I he water ahout. t welve days he fore It became loosened from lis fast enings. His face was still white when found, hut on exposure lo the air it soon became jet black. Republicans Scared. The recent democratic landslide in hnalia seems to frighten the republi cans of the state, and they begin to realize that the rottenness and corpor ation domination of the party Is caus ing a reaction which will overwhelm them In defeat. The Lincoln Star, like all the other republican papers and tho republican president, pleads for decency only when it becomes fear ful of the result to the party. These time-serving politicians care nothing for the people nor for good govern ment, but arc only apprehensive for the republican machine. They call upon their party to "clean house" only when they think the people will not stand for any more graft and cor ruption. Here Is what the Star said In yesterday's Issue: Possibly the republicans of Nebraska may be awakened by this Omaha elec tion to a full comprehension or the weakness that exists In their ranks by reason of factions, with the accom panying bitterness and strife. If the Kepubllcan party Is to continue In power In Nebraska it must clean house. The many scheming one-horse politicians that, like camp-followers with a victorious army, follow the party for graft must be run olf. The few disreputable and crafty people who seek to control nominations by means of press bureaus or other such agencies must be soundly rebuked and only the best attainable men put lie fore the people. The result In imaha Is a fair warning to the republicans. Will It be heeded? SCOTT'S EMULSION is tin- 1'nsit'st. iiinl nmst liToctivt' fiii iii nf coil liver oil.

Several years ago a horse, the pro perty of Jake Iluechler, had the sight of an eye destroyed by being kicked near the orb. A tumor joined since then, and had threatened to cause the death of the animal, when It was taken to Ir. A. P. P.arnes about a week ago. The doctor treated the animal until yesterday when an operation was per formed and the tumor successfully re moved from the aitlicted mcmlier. Now the horse Is recovering and bids fair to live to see many more useful days, thanks to the veterinary skill of Ir. Karnes. Have you weakness of any kind stomach, back or any organs of the body?
