THOUSAND LIVES LUST. Jeland of Yesse Shaken by an Karth- (quake. Yokohama, June 18 —News of a terrible disaster, involving the loss of over 1,000 lives, has reached here from the island of Yesso, which con- tains the Northern provinces of Ja- pan, including Shirebeshe, Oshima, Furi, Hitaka, Tokaehi, Ishikari, Kir- shiro, Teshiwo, Kilmai avd Nemorg. All these sections of the islanda| seem to have been more or less shak- en. The subterranean disturbance lasted about twenty hours, and dur ing that period the utmost terror prevailed. The ground rumblings are de- scribed as resembling the roaring of distant cannons. Shock followed shock ia almost uninterrupt ed succession. In all itis esti- mated there were 150 shocks of more or less force. It is impossible for the present to secure accurate details of the disaster, as communi- cation between the mainland of Japan and the island of Yesso, from which the former is separated by the Strait of Tsugaru (Sangar,) is said to be interrupted, or, more likely, in the hands of the authorities. The whole town of: Kumaishi, however, is re- ported to have been destroyed. The awful series of earthquake shocks were accompanied by a tidal wave, and it is believed that it was this on rush of a giant wave from the sea which wiped out the town of Kumaishi. The island of Yesso has in the past had several similar visitations, and containsa number of active and extinct volcanoes. Rumor has it that the number of lives lost and the amount of damage done is far in excess of the figures contained in the dispatch. A full official re- port has been asked for, and is ex- pected shortly. It is feared that disasters to shipping must also have resulted from the tidal wave.} The man who stands idly by and sees the life fading out of his wife's face, sees her health going, sees her becoming old and faded and wrinkl- ed when ske should still be in the perfect enjoyment of vigorous, use- ful health, is either less than a man or else does not know of the one remedy which will bring her back to health and strength. Perhaps her husband cannot persuade her to go to her doctor, because she naturally dreads the inevitable “examinations” and “local treatments.” He can per suade her, if she needs persuasion, to take Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription. This truiy wonderful med | icine has cured hundreds of women | after the best physicians have failed. | It has been in constant use and test- ed every day for thirty years. It} isn’t an experiment, there are no! chances about it. It is a certain| cure for all derangements, weakness. | es, irregularities and displacements | of internal organs peculiar to wo | men. Peoria, Ill., June ing John Connors, 45, well known | in Peoria and other cities in this State, shot Mamie Mulligan, a beau- tiful 16 year old girl, who refused to | marry him. Connors then shot him self, dyit 17.—This morn-} ginstantly. The girl jured animal renewed the attack and one of the others jumped in. The two remaining beasts took no part in the attack, but their running about interfered with the keeper, who was raining blows on his assail- ante. Suddenly the brave fellow was seen to fall to the floor, and the crowd thought he was lost. He re- gained his footing and finally had the beast groveling at his feet. The keeper was assisted to bis feet com- pletely exhausted. Men of Maine. Portland, Me., June 17.—The plate form proposed by the Resolutions Committee of the State Cenvention commends the administration of President Cleveland, expresses sym- pathy fer the Cuban patriots, and eontains the following financial de- claration: “That under the present condi- tions there can be but one standar in whom the Cubans have great con | fidence. They reached the coast of Cuba near Cardenas on the night of May 11. The landing was effected with the assistance of Andreas Her nandez, a Cuban pilot, taken on at New York. There were in the party 98 men. Capt Bernado J. Bueno and Lieut. Argilagos were next in command to Gen. Ruz. There was also a sanitary corps on board; com- posed of Dre. Fonzales, Trujillo, Alvarez, Rodriguez and Sanferth. Having accomplished her mission, the Laurada sailed for Jacksonville, where she arrived on the morning of May 22, for the purpose of securing another cargo. A large suppy of arms, which had been stored at the mouth of the St. Joha’s River, was secured, after. which she went ten miles below Jacksouville,where more than 100 Cubans were taken on board.
