A PHOENIX GIRL
 DESCRIBES EARTHQUAKE
The First Letter Received From the
 Devastated District.

The following letter will be of es
 pecial interest at this time. as it is
 the first one received here and made
 public. written after the first fright
 ful earthquake shocks around the bay of San Francisco. The writer is the
 daughter of Captain and Mrs. A. G.
 Stark. who is living with the family of her uncle, Captain Stark's brother, in Alameda. It reports them all safa. but terribly frightened. and the letter is mainly of interest as the first writ
 ten impressions at hand of one wno was a personal witness. The letter Is written in Alameda at 30 o'clock D. m.. Wednesday. and says in part:
 "I know you are anxious to hear about me, so will write and tell you of the awful earthquake shock we receiv- ed this morning. I am all right. and the only damage done Alameda was chimneys knocked down. dishes bro ken. etc No one was hurt or killed. one of our chimneys is down. and the other two will have to be torn down. We can't hear the particulars from the city but know that thousands are killed and hurt. and a great many fine buildings destroyed. The report reached us this morning that the Lu- ming building (her uncle's Office) was blown up. Uncle D. tried to go to the city. but could not get across the bay.
 q thought my time had come when saw and heard things in the two parlors coming down. There wasn't a thing in my room molested, but two little vases, but a great many things in the parlOr were broken. One large picture came down, and in the dining room the whole floor was covered with soot three inches deep. I was awake when the shock came and when l at tempted to walk across the room to go to Uncle D. l could not so I sat down on the edge of the bed and waited for T don't konw what.
 After first was over. l got to Un- cle D.'s room and he was standing by the window. We did not realize then now bad it was. He went back to i bed. but Freda and I dressed. We had to eat in the kitchen. The dining room was sight to behold. How pretty the city looked yesterday and ! just think what it is today. Hope this i will reach you and that you will not feel worried There were several pe0- pie killed in Oakland"
 Yesterday morning. a traveleT the : first from San Francisco. arrived ia | the city. His name could not be learned. He had lost no time in get i ting out of the earthquake zone. He { had not recovered from his daze. He 1 said he had been in Phoenix before. and was then in much better finan ctal sIape than when he returned. He i had s in his pocket and $2OO0O in the buried vault of one of the San Fran cisco banks. He thought that his chances of ever getting any part of if were rather slim.

MASKED ROBBERS
 RAID ASH FORK
The Saloon of J. A. Foley Held Up
 for $500.

The saloon of J. A. Foley, at Ash Fork, was held up at half past one o'clock yesterday morning by two masked men, who se- cured $500 and escaped. There was nobody in the saloon at the time eX- cept the bartender and the dealer of the roulette wheel. The robbers en- tered with revolvers drawn and met with no resistance. They took the bank roll and whatever other money was convenient and melted away in the darkness.
 The bartender immediately awak- ened Foley, who had gone to bed. F'o- ley is the deputy sheriff for that part of Yavapai county. and he at once be- gan trying to exercise his official functions with great deal of zeal
 There was not much to start on. The bartender gave a description of what he thought one of the robbers would have looked like if he had had the fOrethought to leave his mask off. The description. however. of the size of the man and the color of his hair and his general build was, however. sufficient
Arizona republican., 1906-04-21

ly accurate to give Foley a clue. He believes that he could now identify the robbers.
 During the day two men. one of whom the description fits, had been about the saloon the greater part of the day. They were sitting around taking things easy and appeared. as Foley afterward remembered. to be watching things rather more closely than the average visitor would have been doing. Both of them were strang- CTS and had never before been seen in that part of the country.
 It is the impression of MT. Foley that both of them will be seen there again if his oath of office is of any force or effect.
