NOVEMBER EARTHQUAKE jjii WORSE THAN REPORTED I (By Associated Press) Kobe, Japan, Jan. 1. Damage caus ed by the earthquake of Sunday, No vember 25, which was briefly report ed by cable, was considerably greater than was first indicated. The city of Kobe, one of the most beautiful places in Japan, stretch ing along the waterfront at the. foot of picturesque mountains, found af ter the subsidence of the shock, that a majority of its residences on the'H hillslopes had suffered great damage.! n this section are some of the finest ; B houses, both Japanese and foreign,:! and many of them were so shaken !1 that roofs fell in and walls tumbled in to the streets. It was the most severe shock ex perienced in Central Japan in twenty five years. In Kioto, the big rail road station lost most of its windows and the walls sagged in several plac-! es. (The disturbance was accompan-lB ied by a roar, like the booming of a IB great cannon, with a heated, op-!l pressive atmosphere, which caused an in even greater panic than the damage !H justified. No one was killed andB no buildings were entirely demolish- !g ed, but cracked walls and dislodged jH chimneys were general throughout IB Central Japan. j A party of tourists who were spend-! H ing the afternoon on the famous ! f Rokkosan mountain just behind the ! H city of Kobe are responsible for the IB story that they saw one of the neigh-! boring hillsides move during one of ! H the earth tremors. Some of the Japanese f-.1-.-lv-4-n U Jl .1 ' J T camcxlo ueueve Lne aisturoance was due to the subsidence of subterrane-1 j an fissures below the sea bottom offlg the city of Kobe. New Year's Greetings. earthquake : a PHILLIPINE CONGRESS BUSY WITH GOVERNMENT (By Associated Press.) 'Manila, P. I., Jan. 1. The work of the first Phillippine congress is lar-! g gely concerning itself with re-organ-; g ization of the government along moreijj independent lines. Heretofore all i legislative measures in the Phillip--' j pines have begun with the words "By! authority of the congress of the ! B United States, be it enacted bv thejj Phillippine legislature." One of the is first measures passed by the new;B insular congress was a change to 1 B read "The Senate and House of Rep-ig resentatives in Congress assembled, !g decrees" etc., meaning, of course,! 4-1 4- 4-1 Tn:n . ; ma i, me r mipino congress is now acting on its own authority. A bill for the organization of siv executive departments has passed H both houses of congress. The de-'g partments are those of public instruc-';B tion, interior, finance, justice, agri-j cultural and natural resources, and commerce and communications. The department of public instruction is to be headed by an appointee by the president of the United States' who will be vice-governor of the Phillip pines, andhe insular congress will have no voice in his naming, but the other departments may be heeded by local appointees who will probably be selected from the Fillipino congress. The bill provides that the bureau of civil service shall be under the' direct control of the governor-general, a measure designed to keep the bu reau from the contamination of poli tics. (The new department heads will comprise the cabinet of !the governor-general and he responsible to him. but their presence may be required ! by either house of congress which, in; this way, hopes to keep final control of their actions in its own hands. ! The congress is endeavoring to avoid "filibusters" and the senate has adopted a rule that no member' may use more than three hours in speaking on a measure after two ' senators of the minority have spoken J and a vote of the majority may close : the debate. ompson-West Company. "The Ladies' Store." IN IT STAYS THERE One day a keeper was out walking with a number of harmless inmates of an insane asylum, and the party met a pedestrian not far from the rail way tracks. With a nod toward the tracks the traveller asked one of the lunatics: 'Where does this railroad go to. The lunatic surveyed him scornfully for a moment and then replied: "Nowhere. We keep it here to run train on." Albany Argus. NOT A THINKER During his vacation a lawyer met an old friend in the village and their conversation drifted to a discussion of the natives. A young farmer came under their view. '"He's a fine looking young fellow," said the lawyer. "Y-e-es," answered his friend. "Well, anyway, he has a mighty good head." "That man's head is brand new he's never used it any." Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph. DREAMING DOWN IN DIXIE 'Twas night the moon is learning -In the heavens oh so-blue, And here I lie a dreaming Dear old Dixie land of you; Of that land that's always summer .Of that land so blissful true Bjut who can keep from thinking Dear old Dixie land of you. Mid the mellow hush of dreaming When the bickering stars bend low, When the moonlight's dreaming gleaming lakes our life an aftergrow, Then's when Memory shall surround us And her purse of life unfold, Then I'm going to chose my Dixie And dream an hundred fold. For no Dixie moon shall hover iln that starry realm of skies, But I wrap in memory's cover 'Mid Dreamland's Paradise. Ere I wake at Dawns first breaking From that land of glittering gleams, I shall know without vain faking Dixie is a Land of Dreams. EWART HUFFMAN. 1 !
