About 1000 Pleasure seekers ON the
sands Yesterday
Santa Monica yesterday had on her
complete summer garb, and the sands
during the course of the afternoon were
.enlivened by a continuous throng of
promenaders. Fully 1,700 Angelefios
made the trip down either by rail or
wagon-road, and the local and surround
ing population brought the attendance
up to about 1000. The sea was little
rough, but not enough to frighten off the
bathers, and the bath-houses found so
many patrons that some of them ran out
of garments, as they have not yet laid in
their summer stock The day was de-
void of incident with the ex-

riding up mountain path, when he
met country woman riding down.
"Howdy, Gineral Vance," said she.
The gallant Zeb responded in his
most effective style, and the dame i'm
mediately launched into long discus

been attending, telling of the numer-

and the various trials and tribulations
which are the lot of Christian souls.

NEARER, MY GOD, TO THEE.
A Touching Incident Of the Johnstowr
Calamity.

A Teuchiug Incident of the Johnstown
Calamity.
Rev. D. r. A. Ranny, who passed
through the Johnstown horror, gives
the following graphic account of his
experience:
At Conemaugh, two miles east of
Johnstown and thirty five miles west
of Altoona, three trains Of passenger
cars, parlor and Pullman coaches, and
q number of freight cars loaded with
coal and lime, were drawn up in solid
phalanx, huge engines in the van.
The mighty torrent from the. noun
tains had to make short curve just
before it reached this solid body of hui
man enginery and strength. This
made the approach of the torrent in
visible till it was so near that little
warning was possible.
4 The blow was awful e-F Posser Iu'1
suuueness. SOM oI the engines and
cars were swept from the ranks down
to destruction, while the others were
crowded close together breaking in
the side of many Of the cars Thirteen
of US, strangers to each other drew
close together, and all thought death
was at hand. Frail ladies showed
wonderful presence of mind and sup
pressed their shrieks. In the midst of
the terror the sweet voice Of woman
was lifted up, and "Nearer my God to
Thee" was sung right there in the
presence of death.
We all joined in the song. A young
man in the party said he felt his last
hour bad come and asked me to pray
for him. I said to the little company:
"This young man wants me to pray
for him; let us all pray After pray
er several passages Of Scripture were
repeated, one lady asking: "What is
that passage of Scripture about God
holding the water in the hollow Of his
hand2"
then repeated the first verses of
the forty sixth Psalm. 1t seemed as
though the earth was being moved and
the mountains carried down into the
sea before our eyes. We were hemmed
in for more than. an hour. All who
remained in this car escaped. We felt
that it was a miraculous deliverance.
To human appearance our being saved
was largely due to pile of ffood-wood
being formed in our front, thus divi
ding the waters and protecting us. In
our number Miss Minnie Hamilton. OF
Minneapolis, displayed beautiful
Christian spirit and courage. On Sat
urday morning, from the mountain
side, 1 looked over the field of carnage
The widest wreck and ruin were in
visible everywhere. 1t reminded me
of the view of the battlefield of Resacs
Just after the awful slaughter. Or
Sunday and Monday l repeatedly
viewed Johnstown. l must say that i
retained beauty in its awful desolatior
for far up the mountain sides away
from the valley we're many beautiful
homes skirting the valley OF death.
