So far as ascertained here, the earth- quake shock felt in the east yesterday did not extend as far south as this city. At the weather bureau it was stated that the shock had not been noticed, and the offi- cials declined to theorize as to the reasons for any seismic disturbance at this timé, saying their observations were confined entirely to things meteorological. An earthquake shock lasting several sec- onds was felt at Philadelphia shortly after 6 o'clock yesterday morning. The disturb- ance was violent enough while it lasted to create a good deal of consternation and not a little damage. Buildings percepti- bly swayed, windows clattered and clocks and pictures toppled from their places. The shock was mest severely felt in the suburban districts. At the Zoological gardens the vibration was clearly perceptible. The excitement which followed among the animals contin- ued for a good while. Head Keeper Man- ley asserts that the trumpeting of the ele- phents, the roar of the lions and the screeching of the birds was terrifying. The earthquake was general throughout eastern Pennsylvania. At Allentown and Phoenixville many persons were awakened from sleep, buildings swayed and a “wavy sensation” was felt. Reports of violent vibration also came from Burlington, Palmyra, Freehold and Tom’s River, in New Jersey, and at the latter place, it 1s said, a second shock was felt at 2 o’clock in the afternoon. New York and Brooklyn. Three distinct earthquake shocks were felt by the residents of Brooklyn about @ o'clock yesterday morning. No damage to life or property is reported from any sec- tion of the city. The districts of East New York and South Brooklyn received the greatest shock, but the rumblings were distinctiy felt in other sections of the city. The earthquake reached New York at 6411 o'clock yesterday morning. The shock was slight end lasted for ten seconds. It trav- eled from south to north. But comparati ’e- ly few persons in the city noticed the dis- turbance. fe Quite a perceptible shock of earthquake was felt in Wilmington, Del. about 6:30 o'clock yesterday morning. No damage has been reported. Felt at Falls Church. Mr. H. E. Evans says that the shock of the earthquake was distinctly felt at his heme at Falls Church, and that there were several residents of that place who experi- enced the effects of the shock. It occurred, he says, about 6 o'clock yesterday morn- ing, and lasted for several seconds. . ~ 5 A Vacation Wasted. From Truth. “I hope you're pleased with us, sir,” said the proprietor of the resort to the depart- ing guest. “Perfectly, perfectly,” heartily responded the guest. “Delightful walks and drives, magnificent views, best bathing I ever had, cool, airy rooms, a table equal to the best in the city and charges reasonable. Why, I never enjoyed a vacation half so much! “Thank you, sir, thank youl” said the beaming host. “I trust you will come again next summer.” said the guest emphatically. palvby—why not?” asked the astonished cst. 5 “What's the use of spending your sum- mer at a resort,” demanded the guest, “if you can’t tomplain all winter of the discomforts you endured, and tell how much better off you’d have been if you had stayed at home? Pigeons for the New York Market. From the Philadelphia Record. At the Pennsylyanta State Sportsmen's tournament, held last week on the grounds of the Keystone Shooting League, at Holmesburg Junction, the llve-bird day was set for Friday. On that day over 1,500 pigeons were killed by the shooters in the various events. The birds, as fast as they were killed at the traps, were gath- ered together and laid in a shady place to cool off, for if allowed to lje in the sun they would “go green,” which, in the nacular of the sportsman, means to spoil. After an hour or so the birds were packed in barrels among cracked ice. In this ma: ner the dead birds were shipped to Ne’ York, where they find ready sale at cents per dozen. The shooters paid 25 cents apiece for every bird shot at, but had no ownership in those killed. With the beginning of September comes the return of the most of the musical peo- ple who have been resting during the sum- mer months. Most of the church choirs resumed thelr work yesterday, and fro! now on there will be a marked increase ot attendance at the different houses of wor- ship until all the congregations shall have returned from their outing. At St. Andrew's Church there is an en- tirely new quartet, with Mra. Kitty Thomp- son Berry as soprano; Miss Eleanor Simonds, contralto; Mr. Melville Hensey, tenor, and W. D. Hoover, bass. Mr. Che- ney, who hes been the organist of that church for some years, is now the director cf the choir as well Mrs. Shir-Cliff has gone to the Epiphany, and it is expected she will soon become as popular there as she was at Calvary. The returh of Mrs. Zaidee Jones-Smith to the leading soprano at 8t. Matthew's will be gladly welcomed by all who have heard her true and well cultivated voice. The First Baptist Church will continue with a precentor and congregational sing- ing, at least for the present. There n No move toward selecting a chotr fot the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church and Prof. Paul will remain as precentor. The choir arrangements for the ensuing season at St. Aloysius Church by far ex- cel any previous efforts of the rector to Secure the best available musical talent, This church in former years enjoyed the reputation of having the best quartet in the city. That was when Miss Eva Mills Was the soprano, Mrs. Sherman the con- tralto, Mr. John Pugh the tenor and Mr, L. E. Gannon the bass, with Prof. Harry Sherman as organist. This year it will in- clude two local musical favorites in its choir, who will no doubt attract much al tention, and, singularly, they are both 8 Aloysius parish ladies, who are enthusias; tic to elevate the standard of music in thelr alma mater church. Miss Cella Murphy is the soprano soloist, who enjoys a high rep- utation as a church choir singer, and Miss Kate Mulquinn, the organist, whose musi- cal accomplishments are so well known, Miss Pauline Whitaker will begin her third as contralto solo! avin, much satisfaction in her’ past eee ments. Mr. J. Nolan, bass soloist, will also remain, and under the leadership of Mr. Hanlin, as director, with a good cho: there is every prospect of St. Aloysius Church having one of the leadirg choirs of the city. St. Patrick’s choir will not commence its real work until the repairs to the church are completed, which will probably be about the first of October, but Professor Main the director, will begin rehearsals nex! Friday night, when he hopes to have not only the solo quartet, but all those who have constituted the chorus present. The new organ of this church is now complet and last week Father Gloyd had it test ky Professors Wm. Waldecker, Arthur Mayo and Stephen Kubel, all of whom pro- nounced it an excellent instrument, an@ one which could not fail to perform with good effect all the work required of it if it was competently played. The music that has been composed by Mr, A. Tregina of the Marine Band for Robert Downing’s play of “Helena” deserves the highest commendation. Mr. Tregina and Prof. Fanciulli are about the only profes- slo! in this city who make a business of arranging music for orchestra and mili- tary band, and much of their work is never known to persons outside of themselves and those who engage them to do the work. In the present case, however, Mr. Tregina has an opportunity to display his work and to show his ability as a conductor, for he will himself direct the orchestra at the Grand Opera House during the whole of this week. All the music played will be of his compo- sition, not only that which was especially written for Sardou’ t play, but the entre act sslections will all be the product of his brain and hand. ‘Those who were present at the rehearsal last Thursday night were emphatic in praising the composition of Mr. Tregina, 89 far as the “Helena” music was concern- ed, for it was not only meiodious as to theme and well orchestrated, but it wi appropriate to the action of the piece ani to the time of the plot. That Mr. Tregt has ability as a composer and arranger has been demonstrated before,but his work in this direction has added to his reputa- tion and will undoubtedly cause him to be sought by other actors who desire appre: priate music written for the pieces whic! they produce. Marsick, the great violinist, will arrive in New York the end of October, and make his first appearance in America at Carnegie Hall, November 1 and 2, with the Sym- phony Society of Néw York, Walter Dam- rosch, conductor. Franz Ondricek, the Bohemian violinist, who will tour in America during the com- Ing season, has an enormous reperfdire, which comprises almost the entire litera- ture of the vjolin and includes a number of compositions never played by any other artist. He is as great in the rendition of the classic as in his interpretation of thé modern compositions. Ondricek plays Bac! Beethoven, Spohr, Mendelssohn, Bruch ani Dvorak, as well as Ernst, Paganint, Vieux- temps, Wieniawsky, Lalo, Bazzini, etc., and he is as often compared to Joachim to Sarasate. If the summary of opintok among the critics of Europe shall be taker as the gauge of his standing, Ondricek be- longs to the world’s greatest violinists; for this summary credits the Bohemian with “Grand and * “positive purt! of intonation,” “warm and sympathetic in- terpretation, “individuality of concep- tion,” and “verve and temperament,” and points these qualities out as the salient ones of his playing.
