AU Jtaggiat Dispatches from Koine stato Ibat seis mographs throughout Ita ly , Wednesday tlie'lH th, recorded distinct earthquake shocks simultaneous with those occurr ing in California. Those of the observa tory at Florence, which haa the moat perfect instruments, indicated the shoeks at a distance of 7,000 miles and so severe that they injured the instruments. The director of the Florence observatory is of the opinion that the shock in Califor nia, viewed in connection w ith the-out- break of Vesuvius, and the earthquaks in Calabria in September, indicates the approach of further convulsions. In Washington city, D. C., Thursday 10th, the subject was discussed, aud the possible relation of the eruption of Ve suvius formed the source of considerable comment among scientists. Officials of the geological survey contended th«re was no relationship whatever Jietfween the two disturbances. Ptof.

Only a heap of smoldering ruins mark the site of the wooden warrens where the slant-eyed men of tiie Orient dwelt in thousands. The place is pitted w ith deep holes and •eared with dark passage ways, from whose depths come smoke wreaths. All the wood has gone and the wiuda are streaking the ashes. W hite men never knew the depth of Chinatowns’ under ground city. They often talked of these subterranean runways, and many bad gone beneath the street levels, two or 3 stories, but now that Chinatown has iteen unmasked, men from the hill-side have looked on where its inner secrets lay, in places 100 feet deep The fire swept this Mongolian section clean. I t left no shred ol the painted wooden fab ric. From this place hundreds of fright erased yellow men, women and children fled. But these were of the surface. Far beneath the street level, in those cellars and subterranean passage ways were other lives. Women who never saw the day Iron, their darkened prison, and blinking jailers, caught like rata in > 4 hnge trap, their very bones eaten hy the flames. And now there remain only the holes which pit the hill-side like a m ul titude of ground swallow nests, to depths which the police never knew. The secrets of these burrows w ill never be known.

His sire, Sqipion, was a prize winner at the Universal Ex position at Paris in 1900. He also won First Prize at the two greatest shows in France in 1901.
