The earthquake shocks experienced in
northern California during tbo past week
were particularly disastrous in tbo town of
Vncavllle , whore a large number of build-
lugs were wrecked. The damage at other
points was slight. No lives were lost as far
us known , but the old fright was vitalized
anow. Tbu fear of earthquakes Is universal
among tbo elder , and especially the timid
residents of tbo state. One-half tbo build
ings of San Francisco are monuments to
olimlc apprehensions. To a stranger the
cumber of massive blocks of wooden build-
in KB is astounding , and it ho enquires the
reason why , the invariable answer is "Xear
of earthquakes. "
Low buildings and fire traps nro
characteristic of California cities , duo lo a
well-founded fear of an upheaval. For
twenty years tbo people enjoyed Immunity
from earthquakes. During that period fear
had almost vanished , and hundreds of mag
nificent buildings wore roared in elites
north nnd south.
The record of California earthquakes bo-
pins with the opaning of tbo proiont oou-
tury. On iho llth of October , 1800 , a sbock
xvas noticed , and two moro on the ISth. In
JBOS , from the 21st ot Juno to the 17th of
luiy , twoniy-ono shocks were noticed nt the
Presidio of tian Frnnclspo. Since that date ,
nnd prior to 1850 , only two years nro mon-
tioiied in which earthquakes occurred. Tno
most important shocks mentioned In the
Jesuit archives occurred during tne month
of Soplembor , 1812. It overthrow the buildIng -
Ing ulthe missions of San .luan Caplslruno
in Los Anpoles county , und that of Puris-
enna , in Santa .Barbara county. Tbo num
ber of persons killed 1s variously estimated
t from thirty to forty-live. Many of the
buildings destroyed wore of stone nnd ce
ment. A number of lives were lost nnd
bulldmcrs destroyed at the mission now
known as Mission Vioju.
From 1S50 lo 1855 sixty-six quakes were
toil in the state , but uo serious damage was
done.
In n shock in Sacramento on the llth of
March , 1800 , it is recorded that there was a
most violent shock , tbo vibration causing the
church bells to loll.
Onn of Iho severest shocks noted In San
Francisco , was on Ootobur 8 , 1BGS. Many of
the buildings were fractured , but most of
these were evidently insecure , built upon
made lands on the city's front. The sbock
was followed by a condition of continuous
Vibration which lasted for about ton hours.
Ono of tbe heaviest uud most disastrous
nuakos hud in modern limes occurred March
60 , 1S72. It destroyed the town of Independ
ence In Inyo county , nnd there wns a grout
loss of life. Tbo shock wns general through
the state , although it seemed to center at In
dependence. Since that lime Ihoro have
been a great number of shocks , but they did
no furtbcr damage than loosen plaster and
S dishes dance and stop clocks.
lllrh I'roHjiiictlnc In U ,
The San Francisco Chronicle reports that
a. A. Dcuoon of that city Is $1,000,000 bettor
Off as a result of a sale of mining claims in
Wyoming , which he had regarded as value
less. Tnoy are located in the Wood River
mining district , Fremont county , Wyoming ,
pud were taken up by Donoon and Billy
Thompson , an old-timo prospector , in the
the spring of 18S5. About that time Denoon
was Kupariclendcnt of a largo cattle rancD in
Wyoming , the property of Harry Oelrichs , a
brother of Herman Oolrlchs. As Deneou
now tells the story , ho located tbo claims as
mere "lark , " un'd never expected to realize
un.vthine from Ihem.
Der.nen says ibut Billy Thompson was n
frequent visitor nt his ranch house , and was
continually sighing about ihe wealth thut
was hidden beneath the surface In iho Wood
River mining district , ubout 'MO miles north
of Oolnchs * ranch. Thompson bemoaned his
fate thul no bad nu one to stake him BO that
he could strike a mine.
Ono day , partly from commiseration for
Thompson , Denoon informed him that be
would not only grub-stake nim , but would
accompany htm on a prospecting tour. Old
Thompson would not accept th proposition
unless Donoon would agree to accept one-
half the proceeds of tbo expedition. They
not off together nnd wore gone for several
xnoutus , during which lime the twain lo
cated about a dozen promising claims. Tbe
expense of holding them all was something
more than Doneen had bargained for , so ho
released those thai gave the least promise
and retained six of the claims.
Thompson , \vitu the eye of an experienced
prospector , declared ihul "thar was a f urtun
in tboin claims. " Doiioor , however , on sev-
' occasions , was on Iho eve of releasing
claim lo tbo locations , but bo had a su
perstitious fooling about lolling them go.
On several occasions Dnncon bad boon of
fered $5,00(1 ( for his mines , but ho did not
think that was a BUfilciont inducement for
him lo part with tuinn , although he admits
thai if the ullor bad been doubled be would
huvo gleefully accepted it. Tbo claims are
rich in copper , silver and gold-bearing ore ,
but as the district has not as yet been de
veloped to any great extent , to properly
work the mines would require -Ibo invest
ment of largo capital.
l'rocr Nb of Irrigation.
An important report will BOOH be Issued bj
the agricultural department detailing the re
sult of investigation of tbe arid region. A
line drawn north and south through the
middle of North Dakota lo and through the
middle of Texas forms the eastern boundary
of the arid regions. There are millions ol
ucros which need only to bo Irrigated tc
snake them wondcrously productive.
In the lusl Ion years ouougn progress has
been made in irrigation in California , Utah ,
Colorado , Now Mexico , Montana , Idaho uud
Arizona to show the entire feasibility of the
plan. In the last seven yean tbe United
States has increased tbo urea of irrigable
land by : iM)0OiK , , ) ucros.
But the greater activity is soon in the
crowth of important hydraulic works. The
land under "ditch" l reported for 1801 an
estimated area of 1SS50-07 ucros. The
iurgust proportion of this will be made avail
able for use In the uuxtyoar , and br the
'
time of the opening of the World's fu'ir Ibe
United States may anticipate tbo cultivation
by means of irrigation o'f at least 17,000,000
acres of land that within iho last decade has
boon dunlared by learned authority as whollv
Irreclaimable.
.Under projected works or partially con
structed nearly 5,000,00X1 acres may bo added ,
making in all as now reclaimed or in process
of reclamation not loss than 25.000,000 acres.

Comstock lode has such excitement nnd
activity boon -tvltucs-ioil in Nevada us is now
prevalent in Plocho ever the exceedingly
rich gold nnd silver discoveries reported
from Forpuson , Lincoln county. The first
big find was reported In November. 1891 , but
it received little credence owing to the many
previous pimllar reports which had only
proved a delusion and the ruin of many seol-
ingn acquire riches in n short space of
time.
The first mine located was the Monkey
Wrench. Tula claim has been nun It to a
depth of sixty foot. The ledge Is five feet
wide , with nn olcht-lnch strcaK of high-
grade silver ore , which continues the lull
depth of the shaft , The eight-Inch streak
contains horn silver aud runs up Into the
thousands of ounces to the ton , while the
average of the flvo-foot lodge Is sixty-four
ounces of stiver to tbo ton.
The next claim is the Thistle. The shaft
Is down 140 loot , nnd very high assays have
boon obtained from it , while the nvoraco of
the lodge , which is fifteen foot wide , is 142
ounces in silver per ton.
Next comes the Hunter , owned by Gassedy ,
Rocdor & Conway. In this the shaft Is four
foot wide and bus boon sunK to a depth of
thirty-two feet. The ore assays ninety-six
ounces of silver nnd $ U lu gold per ton.
Tbo Magnolia , the richest ralnu of the dis
trict , and the ouo which has cnu < ted the
greatest excitement , is owned oy Ferguson ,
Manning k Cohn. They have attained n
doiith of forty-throe feet nnd n four-loot
lodge continues the full depth , which aver
ages $000 lr gold nnd 1,184 ounces of silver
per ton. Picked samnlos from this mine hnvo
gone t3,000 In gold ana 1,500 ounces of silver.
At present there is a standing offer of f 100-
000 for this property , but it bus boon refused
by the owners.
Thuse now diggings , in addition to the al
ready developed resources of Lincoln county
and southern Nevada , it is believed will ro-

The Aluino club of Portland , Ore. , wants
the government to reserve Mount Hood for a
public park. The lands included in the plan
nro so mountainous that they will never be
needed for settlement. It Is true tbo sides
of this fine mountain are heavily timbered ,
nud therefore extremely valuable to specu
lators , but it is mainly bocuuso of the exis
tence of the forests that the demand for
reserving the laud has arisen. Mr. S. F.
Blythe of Hood Blvor says on the subject ;
"Tho people of this valley are much in
terested , or should bo interested , in having
the lands surrounding Mount Hood ro-
Borvod from sale by the government.
We hnvo a coble river flowing through
tbe valley , which rises in the heavily tim
bered country surrounding the mountain.
The river is capable of supplying water for
Irrigating purposes to the wboio valley , say
ilfteon miles long by about five mlloin width.
AVe have acllmate hero unexcelled for health ,
and the fruits ot Hood River valle.v are of
superior quality. All of those conditions
might be changed if tbo lands at the head of
tbo valley und surrounding Mount Hood are
allowed to bu denuded of their forosts. "
Special Agouts Savory nnd Loomis have ia-
spsctod the lands that have been muppod out
by the Alpine club for a public park , and
are prepared to niuUo a favorable report to

The .National I'urk.
Senator Carey of Wyoming has introduced
a bill authorizing the secretary of the in
terior to lease tracts of grounds in the xol-
lowstone National parir , not exceeding throe
acres in extent for not moro than fifteen
years , on which may be erected hotels and
outhouses and such other buildings for the
use of the public , but the leases uro not to
include the gcysors , tbo Yellowstone falls ,
the grand canyon of tto Yellowstone river or
tuo mammoth hot ( .prings , nor any Inud
within a quarter of n mile of any of tbo great
curiosities of the park. Steamboat luasus are
also provided for.
The secretary of tbe interior is given
authority to iix rates ut hotels , etc. He may
ulno rescind leases , subject to the approval of
the Wyoming district court , and is also
authorized to negotiate with the Yellowstone
park commissioners for securing the tracts of
laud for lousing purposes.

An amicable settlement of the disputed
rights of the Northern Pacific nnd minors to
certain mineral lands in Montana now seems
certain. Under the railroad land grant the
company claim : title to valuable mineral land
within tbe twenty-mile limit. Known mine
ral lauds wore excluded from the grant , but
after the limits of the grant were defined
and before the road was completed , mineral
was discovered on the disputed Jaiid. Efforts
were made to convey title to tbo company
through tno Interior department , but the op
position of the minors prevented ilnul action.
The matter is now before congress. The
company ugroos to compromise by taking
other lands in lieu of the mineral Inud in
controversy , and an early settlement i * ex
pected.

Kan. , April 20. fSpoclnl
to Tnr. Ben. ] Two years ago xvhon
Nebraska was struggling with the
question of prohibition vs high license
I was uu attentive listener and
careful reader of all the discussions of the
"Kentucky colonels" nnd Mr. Kosowator ,
and while 1 was not fully convinced by Mr.
H. that prohibition in Kansas was a failure ,
neither was I of the Kentucky opin
ion that it was a howling success. It has re
mained for n personal examination extending
over one-half the state and taking in fully
100 towns nnd cities to establish in my mind
that prohibition , as exemplified in Kansas.
is a most extraordinary travesty of the name
prohibition.
The first town I made in Kansas was
Padoula , u village of 101) ) inhabitants. It has
u barber shop which contains a looking
glass , a regular barber's cnalr. several com
mon chairs , two small ronnd tables , and
about tvcntcases of t'eor ' and , Inclduutally ,
two packs of well worn cards. This barber
shop ( I ) runs day and night and especially
SundaTB.
Another town of 500 people , not fifty miles
from there , was happy in the paise-mion of o
drug store , tbo proprietor of which assured
ma that bo sold twenty cases of bner a week ,
nnd the sight of eight or ton omiity beer
cases at the depot awaiting the tnun was as
surance that the statement was not over
drawn.
Another dri'gpst kept a bottle of "glycor-
nu" uncorked on his prescription Eland all
day. 1 asked Its use nnd ho told me to watch
and see for myself. In twenty minutes fully
live persons minded In pint or naif pint bet
tles. A tcaspoimful of clycoriue and tbo bal
ance whisky made un absolute remedy for
sunstroke In winter and the same decoction
alia cured cases of freezing in summer.
I have made It a point before leaving a
town to Inquire : "Can 1 get anything to
drink here ! " 1 have yet to bo introduced to
tbo Kansas toxvn that liquor could not L.O ob
tained in and in u largo majority of the
towns in a uumbur of places , and with tno
full knowledge of a largo portion of the in
habitant ! ; .
Prom now on whenever I shall hear any
lecturer , male or Jem ale , descanting on the
advantages and glories of Kansas under the
bencllccnt and fostering care of the prohi
bitory law , I shall believe th.i . cither tht-y
simplv lie 01 are fools and cons'equently to be
pitiofl.
From careful observation , I do not think it
would bo nu excessive statement to sny that
there are today moro places in Kansas whore

mont and who have boen'broucht up to bo-
llovo that all Mrs. ' < Gougar and tbo
colonels claim is absolute truth , will
assort at once that the statement is ialso. To
all such I have only this to say , that I am an
absolutely temperate man and no liquor of
any Kind has passed triy lips in years. I
have the good and welfare of the temperance
cause as much at buart-tis some others I
could name who go blathering around over
the country doinr us much evil as they do

Between prohibition and tbu opening up of
the Indian country southern Kansas is having
n nnrd time. The people have left ovorytbinc
and ll oc lied to the .border in the hnpe
of securing n farm or tovvii lot , , in a future
city and business has" ' largely suffered
tnorooy. Excspl on the -extreme southern
strip and bordering on the "nation" you meet
with few towns that can .Ira called prospnr-
ous. Undoubtedly , however , with the settle
ment ol lu'so unoccupied strips there will
come a reaction. People xrill become more
settled nnd Kacsas , like tbe traditional rose ,
will blossom , and with the relegation uf pro
hibition to Kentucky and the adoptlou of
wise laws for the control of the liquor dealers
there is no reason why Kansas should not
become second to none of tuo states.
"Traveling on the rail" one meets with
odd incidents. The ntbor day two ladies
looking out of tne cur window observed the
mile posts on the Missouri Pacific railway.
On lull , roud they are marked like this :
: 10j.Il jni.cs TO OMADA.
These ladles failed to realize the sicni-
flcance of tbe decimal point and their re
marks convulsed the car , but wholly oblivi
ous tbcy finally decided that Omaha was
I'tl53 miles and St. Louis 4,3T 2 miles , and the
ladies contidontially informed us that they
had no Idea ttiat Omaha was so fur off.
Southern Kansas possesses a curiosity
that Oniaba should buy and place in the city
hall to remind our councilmen that brevity
( as well us bilenco ) is golden. This cur
iosity consists of a sicn board placed over a
blacksmith Dhop. The owners name is A.
Black. In order to suvo expense nnd fully
to utilize space and also to convey in as few
words us possible tbo fact tbnt his name was
A. Black and that bo run u blacksmith tnop
bo finally evolved this production :
: A. IILACKSMITIIBIIOI' . i
I could not ascertain whotnor Mr. Black
hud received any assistance from oltber
'Our Jerry , " Ben Ulovor or Fuuston , but
judging from tmir productions they un
doubted ! ) ' gave him aid.
I am no prophet , but if the opinions of
hundreds of people I have tallied with gofer
for anything , you will BOO a radical cnnngo
in the representation of Kansas in congress ,
Few of the western states have had as
fine a lot of men to represent them as Kan
sas , nd white the people feel keenly that
they are not wholly to blame for being" now
the laughing stock of tbe United States , yet
when they huvo another chance , and send
ucu'm tbe men who have heretofore been an
honor to tbo state , that the difference will bo
appreciated by thinking men nnd greater
honor will redound. Kansas will tiguin take
its place far in the van as an Intelligent ,
progressive and influential state.
As if its cup were not already .full to over
flowing , Kansas is unfortunate in having a
backward spring , Winter wheat is not on
an average high enough ' 'to hide a meadowlark -
lark , and tuo acreage is JK > i er cent less than
last year. jf-
Tnis is not intended n'sa "bull" argument
but simply to illustrate tno old saying that
'misfortunes never como slnglv" ( vide
Jerry , et ul ) . >
Tbe time is at hand fund in fact has al
ready come , when it uau.no longer be deuicd
that Omaha is the largest , busiest , most go
ahead and enterprising cirr on the Missouri
river. Wo will admit tltuv now , and lor the
next twelve mouthb. Kansas City has nnd
will have more hogs uudpattle than Omaha ,
but after that wo will cluim the "whole hog , "
second only to Chicugqa pd right after it
with a sharp stick , and , only a question of

Without doubt the subject that U uttract-
iug tbo most attention from business men
mid real c&tate owners is the Nebraska Cen
tral proposition , Wherever three or four are
gathered together the matter is euro to be
brought up and dircussed in ull its bearings
and to a degree that proves how important it
is regarded by property owners. George N.
Hicks comments on this subject in a letter to
THE Bin : AS follows :
" 1 am constantly asued by property owner *
irhen vre will have an ctivo real estate
market in Omaha. Thu iuijulry u cot -coii-
tlned to the larger real ejute owners , but
comes mainly from thn m ll property owners ,
men who have invested the little moans they
possess in one or two lou with the idea that
the udvance in property would enable them
to sell out at B moderate profit nnd invest
their money in n homo. 1 have invariably
told these people that an active real estate
market In Omana was not probable until im
portant public projects of a nuftlcloutly largo
aturo to concentrate the attention and
attract eastern investors and manufacturer *
to this city were under way.
"There it no general wnvo of real estate
prosperity swooping over the west at the
present time. There nro dozens of cities
each trying in Its own way to attract the at
tention of outside investors , and the city
that forges to the front nnd nisumos n leadIng -
Ing position from now ou mutt develop from
within her own borders largo local or public
enterprises.
'The Nebraska Central railroad proposi
tion , If put through at once , will come , nearer
to causing a general revival mid advance in
real estate than anything that has been con
templated horn during the last ton years.
"East of .lofforson square and extending
from Dodge street north there Is u largo
amount of valuable property that nus boon
dormant for years. The owners do r.ot know
what to do with it. They cannot sell , asthoro
Is absolutely no market for it ; It cannot bo
improved to advantage , a < Ut Is neither resi
dence nor business property. The Nebraska
Control proposition contemplates tbo con
demnation ana use of a large share ol this
property. Tbo establishment of a splendid
union depot with railway terminals on the
ground taken for tbnt purpose makes a mar
ket for the surrounding property and foltles
for all-time the future of this portion of tbo
city.The
The money realized from the sale of all this
ground nnd from tbo sales that will neces
sarily be made ot tbe adjoining property ,
will all find its wny back Into other cuat.nels
of business. Ono man will build a homo ,
another ivill take tbo money rcalbod from
the disposal ot his property hero and erect a
business block on some vacant lots he may
own , or invest in some other portion ot the
town ,
"Tbe purchase of the necessary richt-of-
way through , tbe city will throw r. largo
amount of money into tbo hands of hundrujs
of small property owners. While the build
ing of the bridge nnd a double track railroad
through and around the city Into South
Omaha will give employment to hundreds of
our laboring men.
"Tbo benetits ( Important us they are to the.
real estate interests of this city ) that will re
sult directly from the acceptance of the Iso-
braska Central proposition , uro all dwarfed ,
however , by the B.ill greater coed that will
result from the building of a now competi
tive railroad bridge , with 100 miles of truck
to the northeast , connecting nnd brinclng
several different lines of railroad Into this
city , and one horn , out Into the stale , niaiiinp
Omaha tno creates ! railroad center in the

turers and causing n prosperity in business
circles generally that will result In Just such
another forward movement as Omaha expe
rienced from 1SSO to 1SSO.
