The work of rebuilding the town Of Palo

most of the dura bic stone and brick build
1ngs were either totally shattered or bad
ly strained, 1t VIII be but short time till
the damage is entirely repaired. The most
serious loss was the complete overthrow
OF handsome stone building just com

No lives were lost in the town and but
few were even injured
A strict citizens guard is constantly
maintained at the approaches to town and
the best of order is maintained.
Many university students are stranded
without the wherewith to get home. The
university has no ready money and can
not therefore advance it for transporta-
ton, but the railroad company is very lib
orally attempting to relieve the situation.

they were breaking open a barrel OF

of loaf, and that helped the children
out Saturday morning.
AT Oakland was all kinds of crush.
We saw people carrying their pets. Il

Roller skates were in great demand
after the quake. They were used to
strap on the bottoms of trunks and
wheel through the streets All sorts of
vehicles were imprOvised.
