MFADDEN'S ACCOUNT
Wonders of the Recent TembIor at
VacavilIe.

r. Beers Loos, the humorous editor of
the Sisson Mascot, has a friend, j, Wilt
pie McFadden, who recently passed
through the throes of the Vacaville earth
quake. Mr.. Loos thus graphically de-
scribes McFadden's account of the shake:
81 thought you would want few items
concerning the recent earthquake from a
felt witness. l tell you it was awful.
Nature is greater and more powerful than
all combined human agencies. Now there
is my wife. l have been trying to shake
her for year and couldn't. At Vacaville
the earthquake shook her for me. When
the first shock came | was throwing dice
with the barkeeper for the drinks. / had
two skies and a pair of tours. The earth
quake came along and shook four aces
and | was stuck. The barkeeper said he
was not shaking with me. He was shak-
ing with fear. 1t was pitiful sight to
see the frightened inhabitants excitedly
rushing around, holding on to their pants
with one hand and warding off falling
bricks with the other. The streets We're
filled with buttons and the fine red cellu-
loid teeth of commerce, while here and
there could be seen Iangtry waves and
other hirsute decorations. It shook the
tails of the dogs and cracked the enamel
on the face of an actress who hap
pened TO be in town. Several mar
riage contracts were also shattered and a
lady from Winters swallowed hairpin.
a clerk IN store was so scared that he
gave lady full measure in dress pat
tern and started down cellar with yard
stick to measure quart of New Orleans
molasses. One young lady had her eve
put out by a wad of gum dropping off
the head of the bedstead. In some of the
back yards you could see tabIe-cloths
shaking. A recent religious convert had
his faith shaken and sustained other in
juries of vital character. Oh! it was
terrible.
There is prominent business man in
Vacaville who has wife that is a terror,
and she is in the habit of leading him out
of saloons by the ear. On the night of
the earthquake he was playing cards with
some friends in the o. B. joyful saloon
when a seismic shudder sent glasses and
bottles flying and filled the pockets of the
pool table with plastering. The promi-
nent citizen turned as pale as a hotel
sheet. Someone yelled Earthquake p
The prominent citizen dropped back into
his chair and said, is that all? thought
it was my wife,
Mr. McFadden, after speaking feel
ingly of the hearty reception he received
in Vacaville. withdrew his elbow from
our heliotrope paste-pot and waddled
into a nose-painting studio close by.
