El Centro, Cal.?Sharp earth shock?
last week centered the anxiety of Imperial
valley sctt-ors in California or
the head gates of the great irrigatior
system which had transformed nearh
250,000 acres of desert. The intakes
of the Colora lo river, near Yuma, anc
the headway of .-harps, were rcpn*te<
safe, although the Sharps heading
was shaken ami sagged.
Engineers reported that anothei
shock as severe as the one that rocked
the little cluster of towns in tha
valley and cost half a dozen or more
lives in the Mexican border town o'
Mexicali, undoubtedly would wrcclthe
works there.
Scientists appear to agree that th<
shocks lay along the lino of what k
known as the San Andreas Fault ii
the earth's formation, which was involved
in the North Central CaFfornk
earthquake of 1&0G.
Damage estimated at $400,000 was
done in the district extending roughlj

Center of Disturbance.
The zone where the tremors wore
felt most centered about Calexico and
Mexicali, where the free revelry of r
frontier collection of saloons and
dance halls was halted when the first
shock put out the lights and where all
thg fatalities occurred. The men and
women killed were crushed beneath
the adobe walls of a dance hall.
Rebuilding already has begun. Tn
this city, where an entire block of the
business section was ruined, gangs of
men were at work today clearing the
debris. The damage here was estimated
at something close to $200,000.
The loss at Calexico was estimated at
less than that.
Several fires at Calexico added to
the damage done there by the quakes
which threw the municipal water tank
off its sixty-foot tower. The collapse
of the tower denrived the town of
water pressure and the fires burned

RGBERT LANSiNG
I NEW SECRETARY
Foreign Governments Notified
of Appointment as Secretary
of State.
The United ?t 11 tes has notified all
foreign governments of appointment
( of Robert Lansing to be secretary of
state. Notice was also sent to all diplomatic
and consular representatives
, of the United States in foreign countries.
Mr. Lansing took the oath of office
as the successor to Wm. Jennings
Bryan. High officials, diplomats and
close personal friends were on hand
to witness the ceremony and to extend
i their congratulations.
j One of President Wilson's last of"i
ficial acts before he left for New York
1 was to sign Mr. Lansing's commiss1
sion. giving him a recess appointment
His nomination will be sent to the
' senate upon tHo reconvening* of con'
gross. It is not believed that his con1
firmat'on will he opposed.
Mr. Lansing's appointment did not
I come as a surprise as it generally'had
been expected. The csbinet was a
' unit in favor of his selection and
many of the president's close personal
friends had urged it.
Former Secretary Bryan, although
- inn consulted, is said to nave Hoped
for Mr. Lansing's promotion.
He returned late last night from
; Asheville, N. C., but would make no
1 comment upon Mr. Lansing's appokit"
ment except to say that he would send
1 his congratulations,
j Representatives of foreign govern*
ments in Washington called to felicitate
Mr. Lansing upon his appoir.t1
ment. * He is very popular among the
1 diplomatic corps.
1 The new. secretary of state received
'_many congratulatory messages among
them a letter from Mr. Bryan, who
i expressed g\ ification at his soleclion
and the wish that success attend
'.him "personally and officially."

' buildings.
North of Ei Centre the damage was
comparatively light. Towns further up
. ^he valley suffered slightly. No dam j
age was done outside of the valley.
| Meager reports brought here by
train and automobile said that six or
seven men and women had been killed
i at Mexicali and that the bodies of two
(men had been taken from the debris
I and identified.
Strict guard was established in the
various towns as soon as the quakes
began. Special deputies here and at
Calcxieo, a troop of United States cavalry
which had been patrolling the
border, kept order and protected property.
Across the line Colonel Estaban
, Cantu, the Mexican commandant, established
martial law.

\Y. R. Cook Shows What Can be Done
in Short Time.
Editor Herald:?I am one of your
old subscribers and a farmor. Please
publish the following statement as to
the success I have had this year in
farming. I have forty-five acres in
corn, cotton and tobacco and potatoes.
It is all good. I moved to this farm
on April 5th, and although late I went

to plant my cotton twice. I was done
on May 21st, and on June 21st I had
forms for I dooms. This cotton has
only 200 pounds of 1(5 per cent. acid
I to the acre. This is a very good farm
situate ten miles from Conway and
j six miles from Ay nor. My crop is in
| good condition and clear of grass. 1
have had some hard luck this year,
but thank Cod 1 do not feel it now. 1
am getting along as well as some of
those who were so hard against me.
This farm is owned by Mr. J. M.
Lewis, one of our leading business
men. Any man who is willing to
work will make a good living almost
anywhere. 1 have six fine hogs. Five
i of these are only two months old and
' will weigh about 80 pounds apiece.
What T have on this farm is pretty
nearly clear of debt. I find it best to
have as little debt as possible.

CATARRH CANNOT HE CURED
By LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the disj
ease. Catarrh is a blood or constitutional
disease and in order to cure it
you must take internal remedies.
Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internal,
ly, and acts directly upon the blcod
and mucous surface. Kail's Catarrh
I Cure is not a quack medicine. It was
proscribed by nnn of the host nhvsisians
in this country for years and is
a regular prescription. It is composed
of the best tunics known, combined
j with the best blood purifiers, acting
directly on the mucous surfaces. The
perfect combination of the two ingrerl
j lents is what produces such wondt
; ful results in curing catarrh. Semi

Calomel is mercury or quicksilver i

it up. This is when you feel that' awful i

?
A despatch from P.erlin to newsmpers
of this country the latter part
)f last week, had the following to say
n reference to the new note which
s in course of preparation from Gernany
to the United States:
There are good prospects that the

wishes regarding Germany's
:onduct of submarine warfare and
nuking- passenger traffic on tbe high
;eas safe. Jr
While it is stated that submarine i
tction against hostile merchantmen W *
viil not and cannot be abandoned
ntirely, it is increasingly probable
hat the German note will embody ' y
iome proposals to exempt ships employed
wholly or principally in pasienger
traffic from submarine attack.
Such ships, it is said, of course
vould l)e subject to stoppage and cximination
by submarines in accordmce
with the practice in vogue prior
o the present war and to capture if
arrying contraband, but the regular ^
ules of the prize law, particularly
egarding the safety of passengers j
ind crews, would be observed.
It is hoped here that such a solution
viil satisfy the requirements of Presdent
Wilson's note. It is hoped and
expected here among those who are
vorking for a friendly settlement of
ho situations between Germany and
he United Slates that the United
states would see that such passenger
hips were not used to transport amnunition
and guns nor lend themselves
to attacks upon submarines.
