 The killing of the Indian created treat excitement in Yuma and it look ej f'r time as if there might be an attack on the town by the Cocopah indiana.

Mining Money
 Ranks First

Money just out of the mine is clean money. The miner who digs it from the earth or gets from the crushed rocks about him wrongs no man in getting it. and adds just SO much to che worlds available mountain ci wealth. The miner is nor only typ;c. ally industrious, but he typicslly hon est as we'll. It is only here and there . parasite who is trying to make su nnearned living upon his work that i, dishonest. and refiects all the discredil there is in connection with mining upon him. The miner earns ever, dollar of his money, and earns as vel the admiration of the world for hi honest and successful labor.

ern Pacific Company occupied the
greater part of the building.
The damage by the earthquake to
the residence portion Of the city, the
finest part of which is on Mob Hill
and Pacific Heights, seems to have
been slight. On Mob Hill are the res
licences CT many of the millionaires
who, in the early 70s, became wealthy
through mining investments or the con
struction of the Central Pacific Rail-
road. They include the Stanford,
Huntington, Hopkins, Rockers, Floods
and others. The magnificent Fair
mont Hotel, not yet completed, stands
on the brink of Mob Hill, overlooking
the bay. It was not seriously dam
aged.
Palace Hotel.
The Palace Hotel, 7-story build
ing about 800 feet square, was built
thirty years ago by the late Senator
Sharon, whose estate was in the courts
for many years.
The offices of the three morning pa
pers, the Chronicle, the Call and the
Examiner, are located within 100 feet
of each other. The Chronicle, situa-
ted at the corner of Market and Kear-
ney streets, is a ten-story steel frame
building. and is one of the finest build
ings of it's character put up in San
Francisco.
The Spreckles building, in which
were located the business Office of the
Call, is sixteen stories high and very
narrow. The editorial rooms, compos-
ing rooms and press room are in a
small three-story building immediate
ly in the rear of the Spreckles build
ing. Just across Third street is the
home of the Examiner, seven stories
high, with a frontage of 100 feet on
Market street.
The postoffice is a fine grey stone
structure and has been completed a
little more than two years. 1t covers
half block on Mission street, be-
tween Sixth and Seventh streets. The
ground on which the building stands
was of swampy character and some
difficulty was experienced in obtain
ing a solid foundation.
The City Hall, which was badly
wrecked. is mile and half from the
water front. 1t was an imposing

to get a wire out of the city. About
10 o'clock even the Postal was forced
to suspend in San Francisco. Elec-
trio power was stopped and street
cars did not run. Railroads and ferry
boats also ceased operations.
Raging All Day.
The various fires have been raging
all day and the fire department has
been powerless to do anything except
to demolish the buildings threatened.
All day long explosions have shaken
the city and added to the terror of the
inhabitants. Following the first
shock. there was another within five
minutes, but not nearly so severe.
Three hours later there was another
slight quake.
Reports from districts outside of
San Francisco indicate widespread
damage. San Jose, fifty miles south,
lost many buildings and from fifteen
to twenty people were killed. The an
mex of the Vendome Hotel collapsed
and fires broke out. Stanford Univer-
sity and Palo Alto suffered. At Stan
ford many of the handsome buildings
we're demolished and two people were
killed. One of them was Junius K.
Hanna, of Bradford, Pa, and the 9th
err was Otto Gurtz, fireman.
Six other students are lying in the
Palo Alto hospital with bruises, cuts,
and internal injuries These are Ross
r. Howard, San Francisco; II. L.
Dcaring, of Santa Anna, Cal; H. X.
THONGS. of Los Angeles; Robert West
wick, Of Santa Barbara, and w. II.
Mas ers, of Portland, Ore.
The court house at Redwood City
and other buildin S collapsed.
Greatest Destruction.
The greatest destruction here is in
that part Of the city waich was re-
claimed from San Francisco Bay.
Much of the devastated city Was at
one time low, marshy ground entirely
covered by water at high tide. AS
the city grew it became necessary to
fill in many acres of this low ground
in order to reach deep water. The
Merchants Exchange building, four
teen-story steel structure, was situa-
ted on the edge of this reclaimed
ground. 1t had just been completed
and the executive Offices of the South
