A Standard Among Newspapers.
Reflecting in its widening circulation
and increased advertising patronage the
prosperity that marks the opening of
the new year The Pittsburg Times
more than ever impresses upon its read
ers the excellence of its high standard
and the success of its efforts to make a
model paper for the individual and for
the family. The Times is a newspaper,
sparing no pains nor expense to cover
the world thoroughly every day, that
its current page of history may be com
plete, an<l in its longer range overlook
ing nothing that occurs at home. It is
clean, dignified and reliable certain
that no lack of these features can be
made up in offensive sensationalism.
It can be taken into the family circle
with confidence that its columns are
filled with wholesome instruction and
entertainment. Wherever known The
Times is recognized as the best type of
concise, crisp and complete newspaper,
and among newspaper men it is the
publication with which comparisons of
excellence are made. While The Times
is Republican in politics it realizes that
others have a right to lie on earth, and
that politics are not everything. When
one cent a day will buy a morning paper
it is foolish to be without one. The
Times is three dollars a year or six cents
a week, and worth the money.
Tlic Pittsburg Orchestra.
A fine program is to be given this

emphatically Mr. Herbert's fitness for
the position to which he has been call

The Kattir Boy Choir Entertainment
Co. will appear in the Park Theatre,
Saturday and Monday evenings. Jan.
27th and 29th, 1900, for the benefit of
the Bntler County General Hospital,
admission 75. 50 and 85 cent- This i?
for a worthy c»«use and should be well
patronized.
Of this entertainment the Steuben
ville Herald says.
"The performance of the Kattir boy
choir at the Olympia Saturday evening
was an agreeable surprise to all who at
tended. It was not only highly enter
taining but instructive, and there was
probably not a person present whose
ideas concerning South Africa and r.s
j -..pie were not enlarged and corrected,
i'iie singing under the direction of Mr.
Balmer was simply wonderful consider
ing the raw material with which he had
to start. The gem of the evening from
a musical point or view was Tennyson's
"Sweet and Low," to Barnby's setting,
which was rendered with a sweetness
and expression seldom fouudin onr best
trained home vocalists. The songs
were interspersed with explanatory re
marks by Mr. Balmer, and the second
part opened with a most interesting
talk by Miss Elsie Clark, the pianist,
who wore a number of native garments
and ornaments. Miss Clark is a native
of Sonth Africa, and has lived there all
her life, so she is well qualified to speak
of the country and its people. She cor
rected some prevalent impressions con
cerning the relative positions to the
British and Transvaal Boers, showing
that the former really represented free
dom and progress in that section, while
the latter denied the natives every
< right, and oppressed them in every pos
| sible manuer. The only drawback to
her lecture was its brevity. She should
(ill a larger place on the programme."
Prisoners Escape.
Robert Vance aud John Henry, who
were sentenced to jail for 00 days, were
given into the custody of Jaiutor Mor
gan Tuesday afternoon to do some work
about the Court House. When the
jam tor wasn't looking they quietly
walked away and have not been seen
since. No effort was made to recapture
them and for all the authorities know
: they may still be in Butler.
The San .Jacinto Knrthi|iiitk<>.
The San Jacinto earthquake, on
Christmas morning, was the severest
earthquake since that of Fort Tejoti in
1857. There seems to be a remarkable
diversity of opinion as to the number of
shocks the duration and the direction
of the wave: the fact tha* there is no
seismograph in or about Riverside Co
explaining the lack of definite data
I was in Pasadena, and was awakened
at four twenty-five. I endeavored to
catch the direction of the waves during
probably four oi five seconds, then
being nrged to leave the room I rose and
walked out into the hall and stood a
few seconds. I could net distinguish a
wave motion. The dishes were hop
ping up and down in the butler's pantry
below, while every picture in the house
was swinging in an altogether uncanny
manner. Thinking thai it might be a
dangerous earthquake I threw open the
window, expecting to hear the crash of
stone or brick buildings, but by thai
time the shock had ceased. I judged
that it lasted nearly half a minute,
though this is supposition.
Experiences differ materially. A
friend not far away stated that he was
almost thrown down and noticed three
distinct waves, while the sensation cou
veyed to me was that the house had l>een
seized aud shaken violently. Little or
no damage was done in Los Angeles Co.,
or in San Diego, where a small tidal
wave was noticed. The maximum
force of the earthquake centered at San
Jacinto, about eighty miles from Los
Angeles, a thriving little town, with a
population of twenty-five hundred, in a
ranching district, and a part of River
side County. It stands at the foot of a
lofty mountain, called Tarquitz by the
natives, the Saboba Indians, who have a
legend that it always gives warning of
an earthquake by a roaring or bellow
ing: and these subterranean sounds were
heard a week or so previous to the
earthquake. In the immediate vicinity
are sulphur and hot springs. Prof.
