The Kxtcnslve Speedwell Stock Karma Under Ills Management Many Yearn. 'Well Known In This County. Geerge Yeutz, 'formerly n well known citizen efLancister county, died at bis home near Lebanon en Tuesday nfU'i an illness w hlch lias lasted since June. The family of the deceased are or German descent. Ills grandfather, Peter Yetitz, emigrated from the old country 10011 after his marriage and settled in Lebanon county, where Jacob, father of Geerge, was born.

After working many years en the estate 'he rcnted a farm at Cornwall where he also engaged as n teamster for the fur nace at that place. He was u man of such ability thatln lHOuhe was appointed superintendent of the Speedwell stock farms owned by the Celeman estate. He held this responsible position up te two years age and tilled It with great credit te hlinselt undte the satisfaction of his em ployers. Under his management the rais ing of blooded horses and choices stock w as made a specialty. The reputation of the hcrses became known all ever the country and Mr. Yeutz had an extensive acquain tanceship throughout the United States with horsemeu and ethers. After his re tirement from the management of the Speedwell farms he moved te Lebanon county, here he has since lived privately. In 1848 Mr. Yeutz was married te Bar bara Longneeker, of this county, who elljd, and he married again sevcn.1 year age.

Lieutenant Governer Dovies went te Philadelphia en Tuesday, carrying in his Inslde pocket the wrltautherlziiig the elec tion of a successor te Senater Cooper, in IJelawaie county, at the general election In November next. Governer Duvies placed the writ in the hands of Reigeant-at-Arms James franklin, who will go te Media to day te serve the paper upon the shcrlll. During the day the lieutenant governor dropped In en Collocter Cooper at the custom heuhO and informed the latter that he had made up his mind net te Issue any 'writ for the election of a senator In Lancas ter county te succeed the late Senater Stoh Steh inan. The explanation of this was that in Dcluwure count' all four candidates ter senator hud united in lequesting the issu ing of the writ. They had goue Inte the tight thinking the election would beheld in November, and they wcre unanimous in the opinion that it would be the best te have the row settled this fall. As theie had been no special request made tohavoSciia tehavoSciia tohaveSciia torSteliiiian's successer elected this tall In Lancister county the lieutenant governor thought It just as well te postenc the elec tion until next year. The conclusion of the lieutenanl governor as te the Stehman vacancy was reached alter consulting sonie of 1I10 pieuiinctit jielitlclans et the district and the avowed friends In this city of Senater Cumeien, he being interested in naming a successor te Senater Stehman. It was net deemed aih Isable te get up a contest this year for w hat would be 1111 empty honor unless a special session of the Legislatuiu is te be called, which Is net probable. The friends of Cameren want a senator nominated next year when the contest for the best county efllces w 111 bring out a full vote. With the combinations te be 111. d) they de net fear the result.

A CITY SWALLOWED UP, Many Lives Lest In nn Earthquake In fapnu A Town ef45,UOU People Destroyed. A dispatch received en Tuesday from Nagasaki states that a dreadful earth quake has occurred In the western portion of the Island of Kiou-Sleu. The town of Kumamoto was destroyed. A great number of pcople jterlslied. A vast amount of property was also destroyed. Klou-Sleu Is the largest of the Joitaneso group of Islands, has au area of 1B.83H square miles about one-thlrd the nlze of Pennsylvania, and Its population was esti mated at 0,000.000. Kumamoto. w hlch has been destroyed by the earthquake, Is a city of 45,000 Inhabitants. The record of all the earthquakes and volcanic eruptions the two phenomena al most invariably accompany each ether that have visited the Japanese empire has been kept with remarkable regularity and exactness for mero than 2.000 years. Tim first catthqiiake in the record oecurrcxUJ ill uiu y uwr je j). Vy, mivii, ih.xviuiii iu mu account preserved, "the earth In the prov ince of O-ini sank down, and In 0110 night was changed into a lake. During the same night," continues the chronicle, "Fujiyama was upheaved." Fujiyama Is a volcano 17,000 tect high. in the com se of fifteen centuries the re ro re cerd includes 151 destructive earthquakes. The rocerdod average Is one great earth quake every ten years, but the nineteenth century gives 0110 every live years. Among the most destructive of these disasters w ere the following : In the year 1510 there were continuous shocks lasting seventy-live days; In 1MC tlicre was a sovcre shock, during which a temple was destroyed; in 1T0J, "the earth shook for 200 days In Kuaute, or the eight Eastern provinces;" and in 1707 Osaka was destroyed by an earthquake, accompanied by terrific erup tion of Fujtyumti. The famous mountain continued ill a state of activity for two months. Eye witnesses, who have left ac counts of this appalling event, describe the fields, houses and temples as being com pletely covered with ashes. Of the num ber et lives lest no complete account could be taken, the less of life in Osaka alene reaching 'JO,991, according te the record. In 1751 there was recorded a less of 10, 000 lives at Takata by an earthquake, and ever a century later, In 1851 occurred prob ably the most destructive disturbances In the -whele list. The city of Teklo, then knew n as Yedde, fell a victim te this great convulsion of nature, which was followed by scenes of disaster and death which can nevcr be forgotten. Over 15,000 houses wcre overturnod, and conflagrations, se easily started there and se hard te overcome, originated in various parts of the city. It is very difllcult te ascertain with any degree of accuracy the less of life en that occasion, as no etn-, cial records wcre kept. It has, no doubt, been grossly overestimated in seme ac counts, having been put as high as 200,000 lives. On February 12, 18S0, there was a severe shock at Teklo and Yokohama, In which considerable property was destroyed bu no lives wero lest. A se ere shock was experienced in the same cities en Octo Octe Octo ber ir, 18I, but the damage thou doue was comparatively light, ' , ' The volcano of Randal-san, 10e mlles north of Teklo, which had been Inactive for evor 1,000 years, broke forth with great ioleuce en July 15, 1888, and overwhelmed a region within a radius of llve miles. At least COO men, women and children were killed. Some wero smothered by the dcluga of boiling mud, which, in falling, covered the ground te the depth of from six te twenty feet. Some were crushed by the shower of rocks. Others wero burned te death by the red-het cinders. The peak of the liaiidai-san was blown off ami two new craters wero formed. There were severe carthquake convulsions in the neighboring rcgipn, for a bank 400 feet high was threw 11 up right across the bed of a river, effectually damming It, and sub jecting a laige area te submergence for a time.

The Machinery That Is Itequlrcri te Equip the Old Water Works Plant te furnish Light for the City. A meeting of the special commlttce of councils was called for Tuesday evening by Chairman Altlck te hear the report of D. C Spruance, the expert electrician em ployed te inquire and reiwrt as te the ex pediency of using the old water works for an electric light plant te light the city. Mr. Spruance when here made a thorough examination of the works. A tqueruiu of the commlttce was net present lest evening, probably en account of the heavy rain storm prevailing at the hour designated for the meeting, and the report could net be considered. It will be presented te the August meeting of coun cils next Wednesday. Following Is a copy of the repert: Nkw YenK, July 27. Jfr. J. J. Allick, Chairman of Committee te ascer tain the cost 0 an Electric Light riant, DKAHSin Herewith I hand you sched ule of appliances and material requisite, in my Judgment, for the complete installa tion of an electric light plant for the city of Lancaster, Pcunsyhanla. The total cost, you will observe, Is f 45, 012.50. The scheme considered, se far as power is concerned, is the use of three turblne wheels, two of which iire already Installed, and 0110 compound condensing engine, te be used as an auxiliary power, w hen the condition of the water demands such as sistance. First jilan te drlve a countershaft by means or pulleys, or seme ethor equiva lent de Ice, te the engine. The two tur tur bleo wheels new located In your pump station, te be se adjusted as te connect with the line shaRi prosent connections and pumps te be removed, and such ether changes made as may be necessary te drlve the shaft in connection with the third tur tur bleo wheel. In ether words, I propose In stalling a third turbine wheel, which taken in connection with the existing wheels, will generate capacity ample te 200 Arc Lights of 2,000 candle power each, provided a head of 8 feet six Inches can be obtained. It will beseeu that I estimate en power and electrical capacity for 200 Arc Lights, although but 137 lights are indicated en the map, thus allowing for an Increase with the present power of electrical gener ating capacity of 67 lights. Assuming that thfire is enough power dovelojied by tur tur bleo eight months in the year, and that It will be necessary te augment the water pewer by steam plant four months In the year, the cost of maintenance of said plant will be as fellows : One hundred anil fifty tens of cenl at J.I per ten t i'iO 00 One engineer at 173 per month WW 00 One flrcman at f 10 per month W 00 One (tynnine man at $50 per incutli UUO 00 Three linemen and trliunicie, at &0 per month each 1,800 00 Three carbons pur lamp per ulglit, 210, 0U0 per j cur, at fU.G0 per thousand...... 2,0s0 00 Oil and waste per annum 150 00 Depreciation, lnclmllni; repair, en dy namo lamp, and pole line VOO 00 Depreciation, steam and wnter plant... 400 00 Interest 11H per cent, en t50,000, repro repre Kentlne total cost of plant, Inclusive, of real estate - 2,000 00 Total .... t 9.7l 50 COST or MAITEXACE OK 140 AltC LIGHTS.

It vv ill be almost impossible te gi ve any approximate Idea as te the cost or the jiele line for the incandescent plant for the suburban light ing, and Inasmuch as 1 am net pested us te the wishes of your committee en this sub ject, I have made no cstlmate en this basis. The cstlmate of cost of Installment and maiutciiauce of arc light plant is given in accordance w Ith orders received, and the above remark is giv en as a suggestion. A 25 candle power incandescent lump main tained for eight hours per night per an num, can be run in connection with your water pewer at a cost net te exceed . jxir annum. Te this price tlicre must bu added the Interest en the money In vested in , ele line and au allowance made for depreciation. I de net think that these amounts, under your conditions, explained, would under any circumstances oxeced (2 per annum per lamp. This you w HI see will make the cost of the main tenance or each lamp pest $7 per annum. If the city should dcsfre topurcliaseonly 150 are lights, and conclude te use the balance of power in their station fur de veloping Incandescent lights for stieet lighting, the additional cost of electrical appliances would net oxceed the prlce named for a CO light dynamo equipment, Inclusive of arc lamps, or say $1,500. The pewer required te develop JW are lamps would be htifuclcnt te .develop 320 inc.iu inc.iu desceut lamps of 25 candle power each. This number of lamps is given as the re sult of a calculation that the less of elec trical energy in being transmitted ever the pole line conductors shall net exceed, w hen running at hill lead, llve ier tent. The cstlmate or cost of pole line Is based upon the placing ef20 urc lights In the district marked en accompanying map in led lines. If it should bethought best te distribute lho200ure lights ever u greater territory, you can salcly estimate uJkiii a cost pilce of pole line net te exceed $350 per mile, com pletely equipped. There is Included In schedule A. hereto annexed, nutllcieiit ma terial te erect completely au arc light plant of 200 lights of 2,000 candle power cochin the distiict marked en accompanying map.

He was very drunk and he and u friend sat down en a truck. The railroad company recently Issued an order which prohibits pcople from sitting en the trucks. Officer Pyle Is kept at the station te see Uiat this rule Is en forced. When he saw Smcltr.aud his friend sitting there he ordereel thein away. They went Inte the waiting room where they used bad language and Smeltz wanted te fight with his friend, The fermer finally went out uiien the jwvo jwve jwvo ment along Chestnut street and dared any ene te arrest him.

There Is treuble between the family of Henry Wagner residing en West James street and Addle Smith, e neighbor. The latter has brought Biilts against Wagner, his wife Mary and daughter Ida, charging them with surety of the peace borero Alderman Deen. If the Wagners would put tins threats Inte execution, which the Smith woman alleges they made, the latter would have te have a geed supply of bruins. She says they all threatcncil te knock her brains out. She also charges Mary Wagner with assault and battery. It Is the old story of a neighbors' quart el and seme will have te pay for the fun or having the law salts. As seen as the people or this city, nnd especially the rmale or er or tlen of It, have a falling out and words with a neighbor they rush off te an alder man's olllee and bring as many suits as possible In this way 1-jineuster has gained an unenviable reputation. It Is diffi cult for peeple te kcep out of the pelice courts and very expensive te get Inte them. Death efu Fermer Lancastrian.
