Members of Episcopal Church of Our Saviour Gather At Meeting— Bowling Notes of Temoo League— United A, C. Mecting Friday. Giles Cowles of Unionville avenue risked his life this morning in an at- témpt to stop his team of two heavy truck horses as theyl made a mad break for Iiberty on Whiting street atfer being frightened by the blow- ing of the fire whistle on the Bristol Mills factory. Mr., Cowles was thrown from the 'head of one of the horses as he i reached the Central Garage and it ! was only a miracle that he had the presence of mind to roll out from un- der the wheels of the heavy dump cart as the team thundered past. The horses dashed on their way and reach- ing Maple street, at the corner of Whiting, smashed into ‘a telephone pole crushing one of the horses against the pole and forcing it back upon the seat of the truck. throwing it completely off the ground and en- tangled its legs in one of the front wheels of the cart. The other horse broke away from the harness and dashed into the ! town lot at the corner of Whiting and Maple streets where it was later caught. Mr. Cowles received a bad wrench of his left leg and his knee was bruised badly. He was attended by Dr. J. C. Tanner. According to Mr, Cowles' story of the runaway, he was about to un- harness the horses from the truck as they stood in the rear of the post of- ice. Hg intended to bring them into he Farrar blacksmith shop. As he ad the horses half unharnessed from e team, the fire whistle on the Bris- 5l factory, a few yards from where he horses stood, started to blow for fire at Hart's Corner. The horses ecame frightened and bolted. Mr. ‘owles, realizing the danger people wed who were passing the driveway n Whiting street, grabbed the head f the horse nearest him and hung n. The horses however plunged out he driveway and onto the street. The re whistle continued to blow which vightened them more. In front of the Central Garage, Mr. lowles was shaken off and fell close o the heavy cart. He said he did 1ot know how he escaped being run wer but remembered pulling his egs from under the wheels just as hey were about to pass over him.

Ricard, of the University of Santa Clara ob- servatory. [ather Ricard is a lead- ing exponent of the theory that sun 3spots have a direct relation to the weather and issues a monthly publi- cation known as “The Sun Spot.” “In our observatory, we have always lield that great sun spots on becoming central are a partial cause of earth- (uakes,” raid Father Ricard. "“When the Chilean earthquake occurred a great sun spot, latitude six degrees south, was in place to strike the earth. f"or more than 22 years this coinci- dence between malignant sun spots ind earthquakes has been repeating itself. A coincidence thus indefinitely maintained is in itseélf a proof. “On the other hand it cannot be denied that the moon acts at an angle of 45 degrees, where unopposed by aravity, it 1ifts not only the waters of the ocean, but also the earth. This opens fissues in the sea bottoms where the water, filtering in abundance is turned into superheated steam and axplodes, thereby lifting enormous masses of solid material which begin to oscillate, That is the earthquake.” Damage Is Exten Santiago, Chile, Nov, 1 (By As- sociated Press)—=Scarcely a house re. mains standing in the Vallenar valley in northern Chi'e as the result of the| carthquakes and marine disturbances Af last week. The full extent of the disaster was centered upon the provit inces of Atacama and Coquimbo be- came more fully known today with the reopening of telegraph communi- cations with north Chii In those two provinces the victims| number 15 hundred, so far as is known, but it is expected the number of dead will be substantially increas- ed when communications are resumed with many small villages in the in- terior. Despatches today from lLa Serena te'd of serious damage which the earthquakes inflicted upon the Tomo mines. Martial law has been dec'ared at Vallenar. Bandits are believed for the most part to he prisoners who es. caped from the jails, The correspondent of the newspaper ve says that when the earthquake was . first felt there KFriday night the ea ern sky was illuminated by an inte: red light in the shape of great flames. This phenomena could be seen for great distance. . The tremors con- tinued all night and Saturday morning with such frequency that at times it all seemed to be one long‘drawn out quake. Just before midnight Sunday, another prolonged quake was felt, o it was repeated intermittently until' daybreak Monday. 4 During the tremors, young girls at a convent and school jumped out of the windows. Many of them were seriously injured. Seven criminals Lroke out of prison and escaped. Some reports received here have had it that there were 1,500 dead In the town of Vallenar, but these are considered exaggerated, as the latest figures give in the neighborhood of 1,- 800 casualties, both killed and in- jured, in that town. It is believed, however, that the total killed and in- jured in the Vallenar valley will reach some 1,600. The removal of debris in the af- flicted reglon™has been started with the help of soldiers. Eighty per cent of the buildings are down and the others are greatly damaged. | Sof= diers are patrolling the towns by day and the police by night. The state of sicgesis being maintained. B Many small inland villages near Copiapo were completely destroyed. San Fernando is in ruins. Twenty- three persons were killed there. At the village of Tierre Amarilla: four persons are dead, and half the town is in ruins. At San Antonio seven are dead and the town is a total wreck. Casualties so far reported from Co- piapo so far number the dead at N and the injured at 110, Laxatives Replaced By the Use of Nujol Nujol is a lubricant—not a medicine or laxative—so cannot gripe.
