could afford it, to come here and see
the work of the earthquake, fire and
dynamite, and awful destruction of life
and property, especially of property,
unparalleled in the history of the
world. Plans are now being prepared
to make San Francisco one of the most
beautiful cities in the world.
Please give my thanks to my friends
in Oregon who responded so nobly to
the cry of distress. Oh, for the inspired
pen of imagination to tell it as l would
like to. Your friend,

Exposure.

To cold draughts of air, to keen and
cutting winds, sudden changes Of the
temperature, scanty clothing, undue
exposure of the throat and neck after
public speaking and singing, bring ON
coughs and colds.
Ballard's Horehound Syrup is the
best cure. Mrs. A. Barr, Houston, Tex.
writes, Jan. /, 1902: "One bottle of
Ballard's Horehound Syrup cured me of
a very bad cough. 1t is very pleasant
to take" Sold by D. J. Fry.

WRITES
Words of Appreciation OF the
Noble Response OF
Oregon

Hon. David Craig, formerly of Mac
leav. writes from his new home, Berk'.
eIev. Cal, April 80, to The Capital
Journal editor as follows:
In late issue of the Capital Journal
Won published list of names Il call
lit a roll of honor)> of the people of Sa
lem who subscribed SO literally for
lthe relief of the suffering people of
San Francisco. Knowing nearly all
who gave so freely, it appeared to me
that many gave more than they could
faford. I can assure you it was sorely
needed, and gratefully received. Ny
feelings were deeply moved yesterday
as was going across the bay to San
Francisco by seeing a car on the side
track of the mole labeled "Supplies
from Salem" Oregon. Blessings on
the people of Oregon for their help in
this our hour of need. But 1 wish to
especially thank my old friends of
Salem and Shaw for their generous Of
ferings. In reading the "roll of hon
or" / wonder if some of my old
friends did not think of me when they
subscribed so literally. Our loss in
Berkeley was small, and no lives were
lost, and we were in good condition to
care for the $4,000 refugees from San
Francisco, that we had for short
time.
The view of the burning Of San Fran
cisco from Berkeley was beautiful,
horrible, sight, The FIRE ragged for
three days and three nights, covering
the city with heavy black clouds Of
smoke that rose high in the air during
the day, and night the sky was lit up
with a lurid red glow that rose to a
great height, with flames leaping and
darting underneath, and large buildings
bursting into flames, as if lit by thou
sand torches; the sound of explosions
at short intervals of dynamite, used in
blowing down of not only building, but
blocks of fine structures. The fire
fighters, crazed with overwork, lack Of
water, and excitement, accomplished
very little. But when the government
civil engineers were placed in charge
and made the last great stand at Van
Ness Avenue. and blew down all the
row of blocks on the east side of Van
Ness Avenue, thus saving all west OF
that point comprising a very small
portion of the suburban retail stores
and private residences.

It is not necessary to 60 to Greece or
Rome to view ancient ruins, for in
what was San Francisco you can see
with very little stretch Of imagina.
tion. You can see ruins that are finer
and more of them than can be seen in
Europe. By forgetting you were in
San Francisco you would imagine you
were looking on some of the ancient
ruins of Europe or Asia. 1t would well
