KAKTnqtTAKES IN THE ;SOUTII.
Shakes South Carolina and Georgia
and Rocks Lighthouse.
Savannah, Ga., Jan. 23. Two shocks
of earthquake were generally felt in Sa
vannah tonight at 8:15 o'clock. News
from the settlements along the coast in
dicate that they were of sufficient vio
lence to rock houses,
From Tybee Island came reports of
the greatest violence, and decided
alarm was caused among the few who
populate the resort at this season. Mrs.
Evans, the keeper of the lighthouse,
telephoned that five shocks had shaken
the lighthouse so that in the living
room 40 feet from the ground, the sleep
ing children had been awakened and
greatly frightened.
In other houses on the island the
shocks were as perceptible, and it was
some time before the excitement there
subsided. In the city no report of any
damage nas been received, and it is
doubtfnl if there will be any, as the
sbocks were scarcely severe enough for
tbut.

New County of Stockman.
Salem, Jan. 23. The new county of
Stockman to be created by the bill of
Representative Burgess, which passed
the house today, will contain about 1700
people and about 4S7 voters. The
county seat is to be at Antelope. The
assessed valuation in the limits of the
proposed county now amounts to $900
000. The county will lie between the
Deschutes and John Day Rivers, and
between Crook and Sherman counties.
Its area will be taken from Wasco and
Crook counties. In tbe proposed
county are about 200,000 Bheep, 5000
horses and 1S00 cattle.
The new county will be opposed by
the Crook county delegation. Although
it encountered little or no resistance in
the house, it may not get through the
Senate so easily.

stack, Or., have organized the Rab

A Movable Fort.
One of the latest inventions for service
in war times is called the war motor.
Being built on wheels it gad be operated
by a very few men, and is etroDgly
recommended for seaooat defense. The
only medicine that is strongly reoom
mended by thousands of grateful people,
who have used it as a defense against
all stomach, liver and kidney com
plaints, is Hostetler's Stomach Bitters.
It cured them and will not fail in your
case. Try it, if yon are a sufferer from
loss of appetite, beadaobe, insomnia,
indigestion, dyspepsia, torpid liver, con
stipated bowels, or kidney troubles, and
you will Dot be disappointed. Ask your
drnggist for a copy of our 1903 Il
lustrated Almanac. It contains muoh
valuable and nsefol information and is
free of charge.
