month or six weeks ago many citizens
noticed a slight motion of the earth,
while many in the surrounding coun

articles In tho housed rattled In an
alarming manner. In BaJs Park the
shock was much greater and mora
plainly felt. Its effects have Just been
discovered.
Charleo lllchardson, a ranchman of
Bates Park, while In search of horses
last week, was at the head of Bottom
Creek, on a bench' of Laramie Plain,
two miles west of Horse Buttes. and
came upon small cracks In the ground
made by the recent earthquake, which
grew larger as he advanced and
showed a, great depth. '
Ho dismounted and Investigated. He
dropped pebbles Into the crevices and
listened attentively to the sound aa the
Ftones bounded from side to side, un
til it died away In the depths.
He went further and found the cracks
three feet across and he could discern
no bottom. He then came upon tho
main, or principal crook about forty
feet aoioss and crawled caut'ously and
looked down.
A further investigation showed a
space of about two acres that had sunk

BARNATO ABOARD SHIP.
A Fellow Passenger to Africa a Ycnr
Ago Tolls or His Eccentricities.
New Haven, Conn., June 17. Arthur
Wilson, of this city, was a fellow pai
senger of Barney Barnato on the
steamer Tantallon Castle from South
ampton to Cape Town a year ago. It
was thp last trip, of the diamond king
to the scene of hl's great successes. Mr.
Wilson observed Barnato's eccentrici
ties closely, and he was convinced that
Barnato was Insane.
In conversation this evening Mr. Wil
son said that Barnato was disgustingly
consplcuuus, and that there was no
curb to his Impropriety of speech. At
a fancy dress ball which was held
aboard he appeared In the military
garb of a lieutenant of London, and
wore flashy medals and Inslgnlas which
were destitute of significance. He was
the laughing stock of the occasion, but
of this he seemed unconscious.
The women passengers were con
stantly conniving something In an ef
fort to take thH conceit out of Barnato.
Once they sent him a huge package by
a steward, who announced it no a gift
from the ladles. Barnato untied the
bundle, and after unrolling a welt of
worthless paper came to a two shilling
piece. His Indignation at being fooled
knew no bounds.
