FL Paso, April 18, $50 p. m.
At 5:15 this morning the people of
San Francisco were awakened from
their slumbers by the ominous sounds
of an earthquake, which lasted three
minutes, but increased in volume
until it sounded like the roaring of
hundred Niagaras. The earth shook
and rocked like a ship in a storm,
and added to this was the crash of
falling buildings and the cries of the
wounded and frantic citizens, who
thought that the end of the world
had come. In almost the twinkling
of an eye the beautiful city was
sad wreck, and her half million peo-
pie were dazed and stunned by the
awful calamity which had befallen
them, or were frantic with grief and
fear. To add to the terror of the
awful situation fire broke out in hun
dreds of sections, and soon the whole
city was practically in flames. The
water mains were broken and the
streets we're so full of debris from
the fallen buildings as to render the
efforts of the firemen hopeless. The
frantic terror of the people, the roar
ing of the flames and the falling of
the buildings presented a borrowing
picture which no pen can describe.

HE TRIES BIT OF STRATEGY.

When Policeman Barney Flynn ap-
preached the door of the modest lit
tie house he knew that he had one Of
the hardest jobs of his life before him.
The captain wished to see Mrs. Miller.
known to Policeman Flynn, and equal
ly unknown were his reasons for not
going in person to her house instead
of sending for her. Many are the
strange things that happen in q police
station, and many are the strange mo-
tives that lie behind the strange ac-
tions. 1t might be a matter of pride
in this instance or it might be a mat
ter of judgment. There is sometimes
an advantage not to be despised in be-
ing able to select the place for an in
terview; the surroundings count for
much, and the one unfamiliar with
them is handicapped. So the captain,
presumably desiring to get certain
information supposed to be in the pos
session of this woman, had sent for
her-and she had refused to come.
This IN itself was surprising, for it is
not customary to send regrets under
such circumstances. For a moment
the captain seemed on the point of
going to the house himself, but he
thought better of it, and sent a more
imperative message. The reply was
the same as before: She had done
nothing that put her at the beck and
see the captain, and she would not
come. Then he had sent for Flynn.

but-well, all you've got to do is to

''Mmm, now, is that all?" asked
Policeman Flynn who had heard of
the fruitless efforts of two others in
that direction.

THE doctor gave the message to
the cook, who couldn't read She
forgot to send it, and the next day the
drummer came home of his own ac-
cord.
'He stayed day or two, found his
wife doing all right, and set out on
his rounds again. Nothing, as it hap
pened, was said about the forgotten
telegram.
"And at the end of the week the
telegram was remembered by the
cook. With an exclamation of horror
you know she couldn't read-she
hurried to the Office and sent to the
drummer that delayed message. When
he got it that night he was terrified.
What he read was this:
