THE EARTH TREMBLED
, * r '
M , 9 c i9S lppl Valley Cities Were Sh
ken up by an Earthauake,
St. Louis, Jan. 24.—Two dis
tinct shocks of earthquake were
f e lt in St. Louis and in raauy of
the towns in the immediate vicin
itv of the city a. few miuutes be
fore 5 o’clock this morning. The
first shock was light. The second
was more severe. It awakened
persons who had slept through the
first shock and got them out of bed.
The shocks were accompanied by a
rumbling sound
Reports received show that the
shocks were very generally felt
throughout the city and suburbs.
Thetwo shocksoccasioned the rat
tling of crockery and swinging of
pictures.
In Chamberlain park the shocks
were most severe, In many houses
families gathered in undress in one
room immediately after the first
shock. But none was sufficiently
alarmed to take to the street.
Fred Ruble, the night operator
at the weather bureau, whose of
fice is on the top of the federal
building, noted the shocks, but
did not look at the time. He said
they came between 4 and 5 o’clock.
Dr. Hyatt, the local weather bu
reau chief, says an acquaintance of
his from Clifton Heights reported
that the shocks there were very
severe and several persons went
into their yards, fearing the house
would be shaken down.
The shocks were felt distinctly
in the tri-cities, across the river, in
Illinois. Cashier W. J. Biel, of
the first National bank at Granite
City, says that he was waiting for
breakfast in the office of Lauff’s
hotel, across from the bank.
“At 5 o’clock,” said Mr. Lauff,
“I heard the doors and windows
rattle and thought there was some
thing wrong at the rolling mill.
I went to the door and looked out.
I then realized it was an earth
quake. The shock lasted about a
minute.”
Misfits-
Farm and Ranch.
Some men take to farming as
ducks take to water, because their
instincts so direct them. Other
men take to commerce for a sim
ilar reason A duck on the Staked
Plain is not more out of place than
the man who is round trying to fit
himself into a square hole —the
“natural-born” farmer taking up
traffic, or the man whose tastes and
talents fit him only to stand be
hind a counter quitting the store
to turn up the soil. All men can
not be farmers for merchants and
lawyers and doctors and teachers,
and many others are necessary,
though not so absolutely necessary
as fanners, yet the character of the
age we live in demands that all
these positions be filled by men
especially qualified, each for his
own field of labor. When men
make no mistake in selecting an
avocation, everything goes
smoothly,satisfactorily and without
friction. The trouble is, and it is a
serious one, Ibo, that we have so
many men who have never demon
strated a fitness for any position.
When dogs may be utilized by
the sausage-makers, and worn-out
cart horses turned up again as
“canned beef,” we must conclude
that nothing is created without a
purpose, though some men pass
through life without finding a hole
they will fit into. There are men
born and raised on a farm who are
not as much out of place as a
saint in purgatory: and what makes
the matter worse is, they have
never learned ihe fact. That is
why there is so great a difference
between the highest crop yields
and the general average —why some
make twelve bushels of corn per
acre and others seventy-five
bushels or more. Why some
farmers never get their financial
noses off the grindstone of debt
while others with no better “nat
ural advantages” are happy, pros
perous and independent. There
are many men engaged in alleged
farming who ought to be elsewhere
doing otherwise.

TREATY OF CESSION.
The Danish West Indies Will Be
come the Property of Uncle Sam.
Washington, Jan. 24. —The
treaty of cession of the Danish
West Indies from Denmark to the
United States was signed at the
state department today by Secre
tary Hay and Constantine Brim,
the Danish minister. The treaty
will be submitted to the senate for
ratification immediately. Follow
ing the invariable rule in such
cass, the state department officials
decline to make public any ot me
details of the treaty. The price
is believed to be in the neighbor
hood of $5,000,000 It is known
also that Denmark has abandoned
the position she was inclined to
occupy toward the conservation of
the political rights of the inhabi
tants of the island, and leaves the
United States a free hand to deal
with them, without pledge of
American citizenship or of free
trade privileges. So it is assumed
that the status of the Danish West
Indies politically and commercial
ly, should the treaty be ratified,
will be similar to that of Porto
Rico. The state department,
officials believe that the treaty is
certain to receiye the approval of
tue United States senate.
The new treaty is peculiar in
that it will require action, not only
by the senate and the Danish
rigsdag, but by the United States
house of representatives as well,
since it will be necessary for the
house to supply the needed appro
priation to defray the expense of
purchase.
The Danish government has
given notice that before it ratifies
the treaty it will submit the ques
tion of cession to the people of the
islands.

No Negroes in Congress-
Exchange.
For the second time since 1868
or in thirty-three years, congress
is composed entirely of white men.
From the days of reconstruction in
the south until the end of the last
previous congress there was al
ways one or more negroes in the
house or the senate, or both, with
the exception of the short period
between 1887-89. The first negro
to hold a seat in the national legis
lative body was J. Willis Menard
of Louisiana, whose certificate of
ehetion was signed by Gov, War
moth, Nov. 26, 1868, pnd the last
was George H. White, of North
Carolina, whose term expired last
year and who has since become a
practicing attorney at law in Wash
ington. There was a time when
South Carolina’s delegation in con
gress was pretty nearly all black —
in the days when Moses and his
gang misgoverned the state at
home while Rainey, Elliot and
Delarge misrepresented her at
W ashington.
It is gratifying to reflect that
thn ugh it all, Georgia was only
once represented hv 1 black man
in congress—the exception being
the case of Jefferson Long of Ma
con, who was a member of the
Forty-first congress.
