A (JUAKH IN PERSIA Twelve Thonsand Persons - Killed in an Awfnl Disaster. A CITY WIPED FROM THE EARTH A Sudden and Awful DestructionOne of the World's Greatest Calamities. . San Francisco, Jan. 28. Advices re ceived yesterday by the steamship Bel gic, from China, announce the complete annihilation by earthquake of the town of Kuchan, Persia. Twelve thousand persons were killed in the awful disas ter, and where was once an important and beantiful city of 20,000 there is now nothing ' but death and terror. Ten thousand corpees had been recovered at the date of the dispatch. In addition to this stupendous loss of human life, 50, 000 head of cattle are said to have per ished in the upheaval of the earth. The details of the terrible event are not given in the dispatch. Kuchan was a walled city of Persia. It is situated about eighty miles northwest of Mesh hed, on the route to Shirvan, and .is en closed by the Hazar Mazjia and the Alga Dagh mountains. The town lies at the foot of the Shahjehankuh, a mount am which, rises to the lofty height of 11, 000 feet above the sea. The city itself has an altitude of about 3,000 feet. It was a most delightful and prosperous place, and its sudden and' awful de struction is one of. the greatest calami ties ever known in Persia. The Knights of Labor Bill. Washington, Jan. 27. Master Work man Sovereign's bill in equity against Carlisle on behalf of the Knights of Labor has been prepared. It prays that Carlisle and his confederates be required to make answer on oath, under what basis, statute or necessity they claim the right to issue bonds, whether such bonds are to be made payable in gold, or other wise, and why the necessities, if any ex istiug,. should not be met by the coinage of the silver now in the possession of the department, and especially why it is proposed to eell bonds to a greater amount than is required to make up the deficit in the $100,000,000 gold reserve. The bill asks a preliminary injunction to restrain the selling of the bonds, and that after the hearing the injunction be made perpetual. Argument on the ad mission of the bill will be heard Monday. A CORRKSPOSDKST'S COMMENT. Be Thinks the Wilson Bill Will Pass, Income Tax and All. New Yoek, Jan. 27. The Mail and Express' Washington special says that although no definite line of action has been determined on by the republicans in the house npon the action which will be made to recommit the Wilson tariff bill to the ways and means committee, with instructions to strike out the income-tax schedule and make other changes, yet the individual members of the minority express the opinion that they will all vote against the recom mital. There is not more than one chance in twenty that the Wilson bill, even with the income-tax schedule in it, will be defeated in either house on the final passage, but by keeping - the two measures in one the divisions within the democratic ' ranks will be greater and more bitter than if the bill were recom mitted to the ways and means commit tee. The opponents of the income tax within the democratic line are pointing out that Samuel J. Tilden, the great leader of the democracy, was so bitter against an income tax that he refused to pay his while levied for war purposes, and the government was compelled to collect it from him by force. Tilden, a great constitutional lawyer, declared the income tax unconstitutional, inquisito rial and against oar form of government. The democratic enemies of income tax are asking their brethren whether they intend to repudiate Tilden and his prin ciples, or have changed front for the purpose of laying the groundwork for free trade. ' How do you do when you buy shoes or clothing? Don't you go to the place (if you can find it) where they tell yon that you may wear the articles out, and then, if you aie not satisfied, they'll refund the money? Why not do the same when you buy medicine? Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is sold on that plan. It's the only blood purifier so certain and effective that it can be guaranteed te benefit or cure, in every case, or you have your money back. - It's not like the ordinary spring med icines or sarsaparillas. All the year round, it cleanses, builds up, and invig orates the system. If you're bilious, run-down, or dyspeptic, or have any blood-taint, nothing can equal it as a remedy. AX ASSIGNMENT AT SPOKANE. A Clothing; Firm Known All Over the kConntry Forced to Close. Spokane, Jan. 27. Goldsmith & Co., clothiers, assigned today. Charles Bine hard, a salesman in the store, is the as signee. The assets . are $41,000. 'The liabilities at present are unknown. The assignment was in no way due to the Spokane house, but came upon them un expectedly. Goldsmith & Co. is a honse known all over the country. Lewis Goldsmith, the proprietor, lives in Bal timore. He has stores in that city, Butte, Ogden, Spokane, and elsewhere. In Butte an angry creditor attached yes terday, and in the incident excitement several other attachments followed. To protect all the creditors, Mr. Goldsmith telegraphed to all his branch houses to assign. A- FATHER LOST TO SHAME. Annie Lewis was today held in bonds of $1,000 for appearance in the euperior court on a charge of enticing Minnie Meeker, 15 years old, into a house of ill fame at Davenport. The girl's father was sent to Davenport from here by the Woman's Protective Association to res cue his daughter. She consented to ac company him home next .day. He took what money she had, $1.40, and that night went on a spree, which so dis gusted the child that, she resolved to continue her life of shame, bnt was dis suaded by other parties and brought here. . - A Pendleton Sensation.- Pendleton, Or., Jan. 26. Dr. JV. F. H. Osmun and Miss Zeger, of Helix, this county, took the train for Portland at Pendleton Friday night, January 19, causing friends and relatives a great deal of worry. Two days after their depar ture a letter from the chief of police, of Philadelphia, arrived asking for inform ation about the doctor and stating that he had deserted a wife and two children there. The doctor came to Pendleton two years ago with a woman supposed to be his wife, with, whom he left the city of brotherly love. He removed to Helix a year ago. Miss Zeger is a school teacher. Her brother has gone to Port land with the intention of causing the doctor to right the wrong. Mrs. Osmun said ehe and her husband had always lived happily together, and she could not understand why the doctor left. It is said the' runaway couple have been married in Portland. INVITED TO HER SUICIDE. A Chinese Woman Calls in Her Friends to Witness Her Adieu. Mr. Medhurst, for many years British consul at Shanghai, .tells of a singnlar "card of invitation" which, ' says the Million, he once Teceived in China. It was from a lady, intimating her inten tion to commit suicide at a specified date. She was very young and attrac tive, and belonged to a wealthy family; but the Chinese gentleman to whom she had been affianced from childhood, having died just before the date fixed upon for their nuptials, she cave out that she deemed it her duty to render her widowhood irrevocable by dying with her betrothed. So she sent cards around to the local gentry giving no tice of her purpose. " No attempt was made by her rela tives or the local authorities to frus trate her design, though Mr. Medhurst appealed to the mandarins, the gen eral opinion being that she was about to perform a meritorious act. Eventu ally, on the day named, the woman did deliberately sacrifice her life in the presence of thousands of spectators. A stage was erected in the open fields, with a tented frame over it, from which was suspended a slip of scarlet crepe. One end of this slip she fastened round her neck, and then, embracing a little boy presented by one of the bystanders, she mounted a chair and resolutely jumped off, "her little clasped hands saluting the assemblage as her body twirled round . with the tightening cord." The woman was not hounded on by a frantic mob, as was the practice at suttees in India, but immolation ap peared to be an entirely voluntary act. Sacrifices of this kind, according to Mr. Medhurst, are not uncommon in certain districts of China, and, strange to say, theyare rewarded with monu ments, sometimes erected by order of the emperor.

Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report NEWS NOTES. It is estimated that the Bussian gov-v ernment is likely to place heavy orders soon for naval supplies with 'United ciitw-a luauuiuuiurera. The president vetoed a bill allowing settlers on certain lands to make proofs . at convenient points. It was introduced by Bepresentative Hermann. McMillan, in charge of the income tax bill, says there is not the least daDger that its corporation in the tariff bill will defeat the latter, and that the paeeage of the consolidated bill is assured beyond doubt. Severe riots occurred at Bridgeville, Pa., on the 26th by Hungarians, Slavs and Poles, who fired a coal tipple, des-. troying property and threatening life. Three of the rioters were wounded, one will die and 16 were captured. The republican members of the ways and means committee will not vote to recommit the tariff bill, but will vote against it. Democrats who do not like the income tax and other features of the bill ' have to vote to defeat it outright, rather than to postpone by recommital. Judge W. B. , Hoyt, United States commissioner to. Alaska has arrived at Port Townsend, and said some unknown person forged his . name to a letter of resignation and forwarded it to the secretary of the interior. He sent on an but says he received an answer from Secretary Smith accepting his resigna tion and appointing his successor. . Queer Pets. - An animal which makes a most agree able pet, but is rarely tamed on ac count of its fur value, is the North A mprlfr) ti lioa ttot" A -toaII Irn rvtxrn Tn- dian trader, some years ago, tamed some of these hard-working fellows. so that they answered to their names and followed like a dog. In cold weather they were kept in the sitting room, and were constant companions of the women and children. When the Indians were absent for any great length of time the beavers showed ictvu uiiucis.ijc&s, uiiu uu .viit-ir return discovered equal signs of pleasure by fondling them, crawling into their laps, lying on their backs like a squir rel, and behaving like children in the presence of parents vrhom they seldom see. In their wild state beavers feed on bark and herbage chiefly, but in their case they feed for the most part on rice, plum pudding, partridge and venison, and they like all of them ex tremely. " About a year ago I took a violent at tack of la grippe.
