home of Mr.. Andrew Stevens was at

night. The fire was not discovered
for some time and there was for a COIL
siderable space of time no noise that
was of sufficient loudness to awaken
any of the inmates, who were all at
the time wrapped in a profound slum-

owoke the house was filled with smoke
and all those that were within were
more or less stupefied by the smoke.
One of these, especially, the daughter
of Mr.. Stevens. Il bright young lady OF

must have stumbled and fell for one

thot she never reached the bottom OF
the stairs, and when the ruins were
cleared away in the morning her body
Was found burned almost to q crisp.

-Calif0rC In Visited by the Worst
Earthquake in Years.
Los ANGELES, CAL, Dec. 27.-At 4:25
IN. a severe earthquake shock was
felt over a large portion of Southern
California, the undulations lasting
about IL seconds. The center of the
shock appeared to have been at San
Jacinto, a small town in Riverside
county. The business portion Of
San Jacinto consists of two blocks
of two : story buildings, some of
which are built Of brick. Ten
or fifteen buildings were damaged,
chimneys being toppled over and walls
cracked and shaken. The total damage
at San Jacinto and Hemit, a small town
nearby, is estimated at $780, 600. The
large tourist hotel at Hemit was dam.
aged and the hospital at San Jacinto
also suffered. The rear wall of the
johnson block at Hemit fell. The only
loss of life so far as known was at the
Saboba Indian reservation where six
squaws were killed by falling walls.
A number of Indians were seriously
injured. The shock was heavy at
Santa Ana, Anheim, San Bernardino,
Riverside and other places, but no par
ticular damage is reported except from
San Jacinto and Hemit.
The shock caused dry artesian wells
to flow larger streams that ever before.
Considerable damage was reported IL
nearby villages.
