NEW AND BETTER
SAN FRANCISCO
IS THE SLOGAN

Refugees from the devastated city
of the north are nearly all people who
have had money to buy their way out
of the city. They say that the reason
why more people do not come south Is
because they cannot get out of San
Francisco
The one sentence used in describing
the awful scene of the people who are
without food and have had no water
for many hours is, "It is He'll
Drink Water in Cutters
Those who come south tell how they
washed their hands in filthy pals of
stale water full of cinders and ashes
to allay the fever that made their
bones ache. Millionaires and street
urchins laid on their stomachs and
drank the filthy water that flowed
through the gutter. Nearly all of the
people who have reached here have be-
come rested and recovered their pres
ence of mind.
l.. A. Maginnis. who was in san
Francisco when the fire was running
the city arrived in Los Angeles last
night "I was at 463 Ellis street." said
Mr.. Maginnis. The shocks were
scarcely felt there and after looking
around l went to sleep.

went to work and everything looked
all right. Toward noon, however, the
fire had spread considerably and peo-
pie became more alarmed.
1.-THE fire began along the water front
and worked back into the city. The
people moved with the fire and so were
running away from their only means
of escape from the city-the ferry
They did not know how to get away
and most of them seemed to think that
thew would be no better off in Oak
land.
Lost Great Fortune
'The entire business district is de-
stroyed but much of the residence por-
ton is unharmed. The Chronicle and
Call buildings We're burned, leaving the
bare walls standing. I noticed In the
Market Street bank and in the bank in
the Flood building that the fixtures
were unharmed by fire.
"Mr. Praeger, proprietor Of six
story department store worth million
dollars, was out in the park with two
dollars and half and delivery wagon
left at his disposal. He was no better
off than the rest of us.
"The automobiles did great work. I
think 1t would have paid to have sent
some there. Gasoline was scarce. Of
ficers stopped machines on the street
and took the oil from the tanks.

determined to go back and build up the
town again. "A new and better Frisco

FINDS A GOOD
FAIRY IN MAN
AT THE DEPOT

c. A. Meyer of the firm of Meyer
Bros, 221 South Broadway, was one
of the many Good Samaritans who
were waiting for the Owl train from the
north yesterday morning.
A Jewish family of six-father,
mother, grandmother and three chill
dren-were objects of interest and pity
to all. The little hoard of wealth had
been expended for tickets to New Or
leans. The father of the family claimed
a residue of 81.
A bright little maiden was the for
tunate recipient of the favor of Mr..
Meyer. Taking the little one in his
arms, he boarded car for uptown. In
less than an hour he returned with a
very fashionable looking little miss.
A wonderful transformation had taken
place. Boots, lingerie dress and the
whole outfit and, lastly, a very fash
ionable little hat. In her arms she
carried a beautiful doll. For the little
brother they brought fine engine.
That was the amusing part of the
purchase. 1t is to be supposed those
youngsters had as soon never see an
other fire engine.

COMPOSER HARRIS
HAD TO DIG;
SOLDIERS SAID SO

Among the arrivals on the train from
San Francisco last night was the well
known composer, Sydney P. Harris,
author of many Of the popular pieces
of music Of the day. Notable among
his pieces Is the Cavalier" which has
had much popularity Mr.. Harris was
accompanied by Frank Kerrigan, rep
resentative Of one of the large whole
sale houses of the stricken city, and OF
Los Angeles concern which Is the
Chanslor & Lyon Motor and Supply
company.
Those two men were in the earth
quake and experienced the terrible
shock as the others did; namely, be-
ing compelled by the soldiers to get
down in the huge holes and work, dig
ging out the ruins sufficient to excavate
the ovens of the bakeries in order to
bake bread for the famished people.
In describing the scene, Mr.. Harris
covered his eyes and could hardly
speak, so vivid was the terrible pic
ture.
"It was terrible. could not do any
thing but look on with wonder and
fear. and tremble, as did the rest of
the terror-stricken inhabitants, each
minute fearing that the remaining
parts of the city would be devastated
by the earthquake.
"The people were driven around the
streets by the soldiers as If they were
wild beasts instead Of human beings.
I say were, because there are not many
of them left I saw the people die from
hunger and from the terrible dread
that was theirs. I saw many die from
the agonies of suspense on ali sides
of me.
There was no way Of quieting the
ravenous unfortunates and they would
cry out like the little babies cried for
food, I was frightened as much as
they. 1t is nothing to admit. Every
one was in the same condition--fearful
of his life
There can possibly be no exaggera-
ton of the catastrophe, as 1t cannot be
painted in any too realistic colors.
Nothing can do the sight the Justice
that ought to be done in its descrip-
ton.
my companion and myself were
few of those who succeeded In taking
aWay the belongings from the scene.
1t took three hours for the trunks to
be dragged from the doomed city to
the ferry.
Sometimes it was impossible to get
across the huge assures that the earth
quake had formed in the streets. we
had to obtain old planks to walk upon
in order to get across safely. Some OF
the breaks in the pavements are
eighteen and twenty feet wide, and the
bottoms are invisible"

inmates. OF all the grand,

States mint was the only one to escape.
Like some supernatural structure the
heavy walls stood the test of earth
quake, fire and smoke and while other
buildings thundered down, it stood.
When / left yesterday morning people
were sleeping with nothing but news
papers spread about on the lawns for
protection. On Market street the flame
god left the blackened frame works
of the buildings with that peculiar
look of the inside of a crematory. 1t
looked as though the fire had been there
a month ago, while over all, brooding
black and threatening, tottered the
steel work of the Call building, ghastly
in it's nakedness."

Pe.ru-na Contains No Narcotics

One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in SO many homes is
that it contains no narcotics of any
kind.
Peruna is perfectly harmless. If
taken according to the directions on
each bottle. So used, it can be taken
any length of time without acquiring
drug habit.
Los Angeles herald., 1906-04-22

"a friend advised me to try Peruna.
1 bought bottle and wrote to you for
advice. Before 1 had taken one bottle,
my cough was better, so concluded to
give 1t further trial.
II followed your directions as closely
as possible, and thanks to you and
Peruna, am we'll woman today"
Los Angeles herald., 1906-04-22

1t has no bad effect upon the sys.
tenn, and gradually eliminates catarrh
by removing the cause of catarrh.
There are a multitude of homes
where Peruna has been used off and on
for twenty years.
Such thing could not be possible
If Peruna contained any drugs of a
harmful nature.
