STORY
OF EARTHQUAKE
Former Lewiston Man
Writes of Awful
Scenes

letter was received yesterday by
at Santa Rosa, California. which gives
his personal experience in the earth
quake shock and tells Of the wreck and
ruin of the fair city Of Santa Rosa.
Mr.. Beeman Is we'll known to many in
Lewiston where he lived all last year.
He drew the free ticket to the fair at
the contest given by the Imperial Cigar
store last summer and later went to
California and has purchased himself
a home near Santa Rosa.
His orchard tract is two miles from
the heart Of the city and he had lived
in the city from the time he had gone
to California till within few days of
the time of the disaster when his house
being completed he had moved onto
the farm. and lucky for him that he
did for the house he had lived in in
Santa Rosa was destroyed by the
earthquake and the fire that followed
1t.
Mr.. Beeman says that he had Just
arisen on the day Of the earthquake
shock and was building the kitchen
fire when the trouble began. The
earth heaved and sank ana the Chin
neys rolled about promiscuously and
the kitchen utensils tumbled onto the
floor. He stepped outside and saw that
his nearest neighbors chimney and
fire place was piled into the street. He
looked toward the town and saw that
1t had been wrecked and fires had fol-
lowed the falling Of the houses and city
blocks.
Mr.. Beeman was in the city within
an hour Of the first shock and he lost
no time in assisting in the relief of
many Of the unfortunate sufferers.
He says that not brick building is
left standing in the town and that
many are still buried under the
smouldering ruins. Up until the date
of his letter, IS bodies had been taken
out, most Of them from the hotels and
boarding houses.
H. c. Oliver and his son Sam Oliver,
also former residents Of Lewiston, were
in Santa Rosa at the time Of the earth
quake. They had reached the city only
the evening before and had found the
hotels crowded and were obliged to
take up quarters for the night well out
from the business section. They owe
their lives probably to this fact. for
hardly life was saved from among
those IN the hotela and h,,ainoss dia.
trict at the time Of the shock. Mr..
Oliver 1t will be remembered had a
fruit and cigar stand in the Binnard
building that burned last fall and the
boy was clerk at the Imperial cigar
store.
