He did not believe, he said, in having the government doing everything and the people nothing. Referring to the problem of unequal distribution of wealth, he said that it was not right that 10,000,000 people should never have enough to eat in this country L ornoue year's end to the other, nor should it ever hapjien that a man went hungry when -lie was willing and able to work. It was quite evident from bis. talk, however, that ho di.l. not expect the present romli don of affairs to speedily change, for he said that if all the wealth in the Uuited ■ States were to be equally divided now, in six months there would be some geopls riding in palace cars, some in buggies, some would be walking, and some would be sitting in fence corners wa telling the procession go bv. "Above all,” he added 'there would be heard again the voice of the irrepressible reformer earning his livelihood by the perspiration of his jaw rather than thejsweat of his brow. ” He said that he would like to have a private car, a steam yaaht and other luxuries, and that the reavon why he did not have them was iu himsulf. If some men were rich and others were poor it was the fault of the Creator, He would act disgnis the fact that the present was a momentous crisis iu the history of this country, and that all the forces of demoralization were marshaled for the contest. He had no doubt of the outcome of the fight. There would be preceding one, but with greater oscillat ing motion. The duration of the two shocks was fully a minute. The first shock was so violent that the electric light tower at Market and Santa Clara streets, 240 feet high, was sv vyed at least tn feet out of perpendir ar, and those in the vicinity ran. expecung it to fall. In the St. James and v sndome hotels, which are largely fii d with eastern tourists, a veritable pa.iic pre vailed, men and women rush ng -half clad into the corridors, th - r faces blanched and their shrieks c>: terror filling the air. The entire city rocked like a ship in the trough of a rongh sea and on the second shock the rows of buildings rose and'fell with a slow, undnlatory motion. The first shock proved disastrous to crockery, window panes and chimneys and one partly erected brick building was tumbled to the ground. So far as learned no one was hurt^beyond the al most universal scare. Prof. Barnard, of Lick Observatory, says the s ock rocked the Observatory building vio lently, and some fear was felt for the big telescope, but beyond a severe sha king it escaped intact.

Vincinnes, Ind., June 30.—Services at the Christian church, were interrupted here and the congregation terrorized by the entrance of Wm. Sachs, a saloon keeper, who had been suddenly seized with a fit of insanity. In load tones he called on the Rev. Mr. Clark to save his soul, shouting and exhorting., in the wildest manner going through'the most grotesque ■; t j. The women and children and a u . u many of.the men fled from the house, creating a panic in their efforts to escape the madman. Chief of Police Johnson and Lieutenant Robertson were sent for, and with the assistance of several men of the congre gation succeeded, after a desperate struggle, in ejecting the intruder, who is a muscular man. and has always had the reputation of a wicked fighter. Before entering th® church Sachs was rushing up and down Second street in front of his residence itb a loaded re volver in his hand, avowing that if the Sunday law would not permit him to sell liquor he would see that the street cars stopped running if he had to kill the drivers, and at the point ot his pis tol be compelled two cars to stop. He was finally overpowered by five men, who carried him to' jail. His faithful dog stayed by him in the struggle and the animal had to be billed before the officers could take his master prisoner.
