we were. Twenty to thirty more or less
noticeable shocks were felt during the day
The day was spent in nervous dread OF
more quakes and watching the conflagra-

about three miles. Until our 6 O'Clock
dinner we did not think the fire would
reach us, as the wind favored US. After
fair dinner In the hotel we prepared to
leave. Wagons to move anything was
out OF the question. and we packed two
laundry bags and two hand bags, and
with my heavy overcoat and Bellies fur

FROM SAN FRANCISCO

Thrilling Experience Related by w.
#. wilder, who Felt the Quake.
The following letter. written to w. A.
Wilder by his uncle was received Satur-
day. Mr.. and Mrs. Wilder. who are quite
well known here we're stopping at the Co
lonial hotel in San Francisco when the
quake struck the city. They managed to
/ get to Oakland and from there the letter
was written April 90
| You have read much of the terrible ca
lamity that has destroyed San Francisco,
and will only give you our experience.
About S o'clock We dnesday morning we
were awakened by an ndescribable noise
and violent shaking Of our bed, which
brought us to sitting posture, and said.
this is shake for sure. Our rooms were
in the fourth story, and one story above
US. We seemed to sway back and forth
five or six feet with some undulating mo-
ton, and the oreaking Of the timbers Of
the house were terrifying. Three Of the
chimneys Of the hotel fell to the sidewalk
with great crash and many things in
our rooms fell to the floor, and then the
noise and trembling subsidized. think the
noise and shaking lasted from two to three
minutes. We jumped out of bed and then
found our rooms in much disorder, SCOT
from the chimney scattered in the room,
many things on the floor. the carpet wet
from our flower vases and water tank in
bath room, but only one thing broken, a
small cut glass vase.
Looking out OF the window we saw the
chmneys had fallen from the houses
around and the air filled with dust. We
went back to bed thinking the damage
had not been great, but soon the loud talk
ing aroused US and we got up and dressed.
We went down and out on the streets, and
found considerable part OF the brick wall
OF an apartment house near by had fallen,
exposing the bed and furniture of room.
This convinced us that the damage in the
city must be serious. We also found that
several Of the rooms in our hotel had been
seriously damaged. Soon huge column
OF smoke was seen rising in the down
town district and we knew fire had been
started, and in an hour or two we could
see many fires and widely scattered. but
none near US. About 8 o'clock breakfast
was served during which we had another
quite severe shake. but only for few sec
onds.
The fires we're undoubtedly started by
building fires to cook breakfast, the Chin
neys being shattered in addition to the
fires started by fallen buildings. The !

the teacher or to bother other
pupils.
Never try to influence the
child against the teacher under
any conditions. Y Youhurt your own
child infinitely more than you
hurt the teacher when you en-
courage the child to rebel against
necessary discipline. Remember
that the work Of school teachers
is the noblest and the hardest
work in the world. Remember
tHat it is infinitely the most i'm
pOrtant work in this world.
You ask of the teacher a de-
votion that can only be given as
result of the highest possible
moral character. For your
child's sake especially, and for
the teachers sake as we'll, put
yourself in the teachers place.
Impress upon your child the
great, noble work that the teach
er does. Tell the child how often
it has happened that men sue
cessful in this world have owed
their success entirely to their
schoolteacher. Impress upon them
especially the fact that good men
and successful men have always
been eager in childhood to shcw
gratitude for the work that teach
ers do.
You can easily impress the
child the right way. Make it
your solemn duty to tighten the
burden of the men and women
in the public schools, upon whom
you depend for your children's
welfare.
Do not neglect this.

While Mr. G. X. Laney was
out on the campaign last week
Mrs. Laney had some one 10
stay at her home at night for
protection, but last Friday eve.
ming Mr.. Laney phoned from
Ruby that he would be at home
by II o'clock that night and she
did not arrange for any one to
stay with her except her tw O little
nieces who have been visiting
her fir ON Kershaw. Mrs. Laney
waited until nearly IL O'Clock be-
fore she retired, thinking Mr..
Laney would come and il was so
late in the night she concluded
rather than disturb any of her
neighbors she would risk. staying
in the house with her little
nleces. Not long after she retir-
ed she heard some one strike a
little dog belonging in the yard
and thought that Mr.. Laney had
arrived and had hit the dog in
some way. In a few minutes
some one tried the blinds to her
bed room window and she still
thought that Mr.. Laney had
been to put up his horse and in
passing the window gave it a
rake with his hand, but she soon
found that some one had gotten
In the parlor adjoining her bed
room. She then became frighten-
ed so much that she woke up
her nieces and told them that some
one was in the house. The intrud-
er came to her room door and
tried to open it and then Mrs.
Laney began to scream and call
for help, and whoever it was
then rushed to get out of the
house and In doing so ran over a
chair. Mrs. Laney's screams a
reused several of her neighbors
and the first to get there were
some colored women who! lived
nearby. AS matter of course no
one could be seen as the rascal
had time to get away before any
one arrived.
Mrs. Laney in a very excited
condition, was carried over to DR.
Laney's and spent the remainder
of the night.
Efforts are being made to find
out who the guilty party was
but with no success so far.
