Newport experienced an earth
| quake shock this morning about 4:30, j
or at least a number of people did, j
while others slept through it. The
rocking of houses and the shaking of
windows was enough to have awak
ened most anyone. The quake seem
ed to have lasted some two or three
minutes and was hard enough to
cause telephones in some residences
to ring from the vibrations. After
a severe rocking a tremor and moan
ing sound followed, which frightened
many of our people pretty badly.
Several parties on the Island felt the
quake and Charles Bateman, who
spent the night with his daughter in
Oil Trough, says it was very notice
able over there. In fact the vibra
tions were felt all over the county.
FINE SWEET TONED PIANO.
Has been used. Will sell cheap for
cash or Liberty Bonds. Pnone 31.—
