About 9 o'clock in the morning a tremor, slightly Jarring the build- ings, occurred. This lusted two or three seconds only, end as no dam- age was dorso the inhabitants were not -greatly alarmed. A half hour later the same phenomenon was so- peated, and was inunediatoly follow- ed by a terrine shock, which swayed the buildings to and fro and over- threw many walls. The city was at once in wild dismay. Lavery one who could get out of doors rushed to the streets anti open spaces and ,awaited in terror what aright yet occur. The sound of failing Walls was ev- erywhere hoard for the next half hour, for the rain of many buildings which had not been overthrown was completed by their own weight, that could not be supported on the now unstable foundations. Half an hour later came another terrible shock that completed the ruin of the city. Almost all of the buildings that had sheltered 46,000 souls and the fine structures'. that had been erected by Russians in the businois districts wee now nothing but beeps of ruins. The beautiful stone buildings occupied by the Rus- sian -Chinese )lank, the railroad sta- tion, the barracks of the Ituseian garrison and all tho other conspicu- ous structures were reduced to heaps of ruins. Many of the steel rails of the railroad track were twisted as though they were nothing but wire. 'PL° notion was vertical and terri- bly severe. Wagons, timbers and stone were projected into the air and many of the vehicles wero thus hl oken to pieces on the streets. For about ftMLcen minutes after the "e onil sheets many other Mocks of ,tiniost equal severity occurred, de- stroying the few buildings that had still kept erect on their founde- d ors. Tilit WHOLE cATASTROP13E occupied about an hour, and while 11; continued a most unearthly s.ub- torrnnenn rumbling noise accom- panied the coltvalsions of the sul'- face. A torrential rtLin beat 'down upon rho scene of desolation and a furious i'ainstoviu swept bits of the ruins and everything it could move before it. A number of acts of heroism among the °Mears and soldiers of the Russian garrison were rocorcled, Capt. Toutchkof and Lieut. Ghor't- sollno refused to leave their ruined bzsiraielrs until .the last of their wounded soldiers had been removed. They were in the barracks when the eecond shod: occurred and the cap- tain was dangerously hurt. A sentinel named Sascnouk, who was guarding the flag and the. strongbox of the military, tuns 1,nhn- jurecl by the first shocks, but refus- ed to leave his post until 110 was relieved by his superior o'ihleer, and was so badly hurt later that he had to be carried front tho ruine, Sub- altern Khaline remained at the risk of his life to save the wounded 'sold- iers andprisoners. I3e found. an opening in one of the walls, through which, by means of a ladder, the wounded men were passed ono by one outside the ruins, Another soldier succeeded in pro- viding guns for the military patrol, that was needed to beep order after the calamity, by rushing into a building theft threatened every. 1110- m;ont to fall and throwing sixty, rifles through a window h.tc• the street.

When this tubo is Inflam- ed you have a rumbling sound or im- perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, noiseless is the result, and un- less the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will bo destroyed for- ever.

Illness is very like e cowardly cur which gives chose if you fee f1'om it, but goes on about its business— that of seeking the fearful ones—if you pass on umtotichig, but cour- ageous, The reasons for the ability of bravo amen to go unharmed through pest hospitals, as diel Na- poleon, and as physicians do every day, are not only psychological but physiological, Tho quality of mere courage seems to have a sort of pickling and hard- ening erred upon tho tissues of the body, like the plunge in brine, steel- ing teeling them against infection ;. while fear, by "unstringing" the norvos, weakens the whole resisting power of the body, inviting' the very evil feared most. bear weakens tho heart's action, induces congestion, invites indiges- tion, produces poison through do- 00011?osin foods, and is thus the i g inotliue of auto -poisoning, which either directly causes or greatly aids per the ' production of quite 00 cent, of all our diseases. In recognizing this law, however, it is just as well to terry 111 a small pocket of one's memory the old adage, "Discretion is the hotter part of older," and to avoid running needless dangers, But it is aL well- known fact that 5ml1llpox and like contagion will attack first those who are trembling for fear of it, often leaving unscathed the bravo ones Who are in the thickest of it nursing, tending, and evert burying the plague One of the strange things in Paris is a club composed entirely of deaf and dumb men.
