DOME IS DECENT
Of Loxington, 1773, aiul of Baltimore,
1881.
Baltimore. Md.. April 19. Today Is
memorable day In the history of
this country. Just 131 years ago the
shot was fire at Lexington, which was
heard around the world, and Just 45
years ago today Baltimore was the
scene of an Important event In the his
tory of the United States, the .attack
upon the Sixth Massachusetts regi
ment ns It was on Its way to Washing
ton In defense of the union. There
are quite a number of persons living
In this city today who remember that
April 19, nfcarly half a century ago.
The country was In a turmoil then.
Fort Sumter had been fired upon, the
federal government had called for
volunteers to put down the rebellion
and the stars and bars had been run j
up to replace the stars and stripes In
many of the southern states. Balti
more was a hotbed of secessionists
then and, when the 'Washington au
thorities attempted to pass armed men
through the city, there was trouble.
On the morning of April 19, the
Sixth Massachusetts 'regiment and
portions of the First and Second regi
ments of Pennsylvania troops started
across the city. They were greeted
with hoots and Jeers and showers of
missiles were hurled at them by the
Immense throng of southern sym
pathizers. A soldier's gun was acci
dentally discharged, the mob made an
assault and the soldiers fired a vol
ley. Four soldiers and 12 citizens
were killed and 36 soldiers and a
great many citizens wounded.

One of the most striking coinci

San Francisco earthquake, is found In
an editorial review of destructive
earthquakes 'by the Oregon Dally
Journal on Tuesday evening, preced
ing the terrible calamity at Ban Fran
clsco yesterday morning.
In closing the review of the most
destructive earthquakes the Journal
said in speaking of the Charleston
earthquake in 1886: "It may be 1000
years before another calamity like
that of Charleston happens In this
country."
Within less than 12 hours after this
review, the awful horror had visited
San Francisco and eclipsed the
Charleston calamity. The Journal
said on Tuesday evening on the sub
ject of "Earthquakes":
Earthquakes have been far mo e
destructive of human life and proper
ty than local volcanic eruptions.
Briefly stated, 13.000,000 people, as
far as Is known and has been record
ed, have perished from earthquakes,
while the property loss exceeds com
putation. All along the sinuous track
of history we find records and stories
of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

of the wrath of an offended deity, but
this notion hns mostly disappeared.

6O.OD0 people disappeared. Japan is

South America Is the scene of many
