FROM MRS. GEO. w. CASTERLINE
She Says: Read Mathew, Chapter
"a, and Luke, Chapter 21."

Mrs. Geo. w. Casterline, of Morgan
Hill, California, who is well known to
all old settlers was IN the earthquake
area and in letter to the PILOT says:
owe have all survived the earth
quake, some having lost all their pos
sessions. We are very thankful to our
Heavenly Father for His protection. 1t
is fearful time, especially for San
Francisco and San Jose. More so for
the former city. Many are out in the
world without cent. Many have been
killed and many MANNED for life; you
cannot imagine the horrors of the
same. My grand son, who lost all, was
here yesterday and told us the sad story
of insanity and death coming to those
under his own observation. Ny grand
daughter, Mary and family, lost all ex-
eept enough so that they are now living
in a tent.
1t is raining now which may put out
the fire. This is but the beginning of
sorrows. Math., Chap. "a and Luke,
Chap. 81. Read"
Mrs. Casterline was one of the early
settlers of Wausau She was a devout
Methodist; being a woman of educa-
ton, good speaker and writer, and
witha., very sincere believer and
worker in the cause of Christianity,
she never lost an opportunity to ex-
pound the Gospel. Mrs. Casterline is
now over so years of age; writes with a
firm hand and her letters are always
very interesting. The readers of the
PILoT cannot spend few moments of
their time more protitably than by
reading the chapters which she has in
dicated.

POSTAGELESS LETTERS.

On Tuesday last the first mail to be
received from San Francisco people
after the great calamity, arrived here
an the morning, and for several days
afterwards a letter from that city could
be picked out from a bunch, without
looking at the postscript. None of them
had postage stamps attached and they
were unique in the character of the
envelopes and paper used. For several
days it was impossible to procure post
age stamps and under a special order
from the government, mail could be
sent out without postage, regardless of
any standing regulations, the postage
to be paid by and collected of the ad-
dressee They were sent through with
the same dispatch as letters bearing
postage Some of the envelopes Were
of the old home made style and the
paper used was in many instances OF
the brown wrapping variety as used by
butchers and some of card board. They
were all welcomed by the. addresses
and will be preserved as mementoes OF
the great catastrophe.

HOW THEY FARED IN SAN JOSE.
Mrs Ressegue Writes Another Letter the Pilots This Time
About the Awful Earthquake and Fires on the Coast.

ON the streets as usual. The hour was
good if nothing more. Several old peo-
pie have already died from the shock,
while others are quite i'll from the
effects. As for mother and myself, we
still have spells of shaking; feeling a
good deal as you do after riding on the
cars 1t is hard to write, there is so
much going on. In St. James park,
Mckinley monument stands with out
stretched arms, and nestled close beside
it, the little tents are clustered where
the militia sleeps when off duty; they
guard us; they compel all to obey
orders. The first night the San Fran
cisco people came to us; they also
found shelter in the ST. James park,
with the big water wagons of the city,
pulled up on one side of the park, Inc
soldier boys paced back and forth with
bayonets ready for action, II any one
attempted to molest our visitors. San
Jose did not invite San Francisco here,
for she had so much to do for her own,
but it was understood that if they came
to her, al were to divide whatever they
had | am still in love with San Jose
and her loving people, and if my friends
should see tit to come here one year
from now, | am sure they will be sur
prised to see how little there will be left
to tell this terrible story. When they
do come they should not fail to visit
Fresno. whose good people stayed up all
night and had two car loads OF food cook
ed ready to start for San Francisco in the
morning and sent word for the people
to cheer up, for they would have two
more cars ready the next morning.
Portland, Los Angeles and other places
are sending in supplies, also doctors
and nurses. Money must come from
the East as the banks can get none from
San Francisco. Banks are all closed
hero.
Roses, roses everywhere. No church
today except in the open air, as all
buildings must be examined before
used. Old people here tell the story of
how they had an earthquake in 68, but
it did not compare with this one they
say
Well, goodbye. Do not come and
see us for a few days No time to visit
as we ought. A little later, come and
stay You will please excuse all mis-
takes, for | am so pleased that so many
are alive to tell the story.
Sincerely yours,
Mrs. l.. A. RESSEGUIE.

Ever since the shock, April Is, 5l5 A. NJ,
in the day time we could see dense
clouds of smoke over San Francisco,
and at night it was sea of flames,
1t looked like glorious sun set from
here. No one is allowed to go from
here to San Francisco. Mr.. Havin tour
neighborl did manage to get there yes
terday with his brother hunting his two
daughters. They found them both
safe, but had lost everything but their
lives. He was telling US about it last
night and the scenes he described were
awful. He said the fire would leap two
blocks at a time and onward. The
military drove the people from the
houses three blocks ahead of the flames.
He said men and women, old and
young, were dragging their trunks
through the streets, with ropes over
their shoulders hitched to them, and
women bent almost double with bum
dies done up in sheets and blankets on
on their shoulders. Provisions have

WORTH REMEM BERING.

There are three entirely different
kinds of ingredients used in making the
three different varieties of baking pow.
ders on the market, viz.-(D Mineral
Acid or Alum, (2) Bone-Acid or Phos
phate, and (3) Cream of Tartar made
from grapes. 1t is important, from the
standpoint of health to know some.
thing about these ingredients, and
which kind is used in your baking
powder.
d) Mineral acid, or Alum, is made
from of kind p clay. This is mixed with
diluted oil of vitrioi and from this solu
ton a product is obtained which i:
alum. Alum is cheap costs about two
cents pound, and baking powder
made from this Mineral-Acid sells from
10 to 25c pound.
t2) Bone-dcid, or Phosphate, is the
basis of phosphate baking powders and
the process is fully described in the
patents issued to large manufacturer
of a phosphate powder. The u. S. Pat
ent Office Report gives full and exact
description, but the following extract is
enough;
Burned bones, after being ground
are put into freshly diluted oil OF
vitriol and with continual stirring
and in the following proportion etc
From this Bone-Acid phosphate baking
powders are made such powders sell
from 20 to 30 cents pound.
(3) Crearl Of Tartar exists in all ripe
grapes, and flows with the juice from
the press in the manufacture of wine
After the wine is drawn off the tartar is
scraped from the cask, boiled with
water, and crystals of Cream of Tarter,
white and very pure, separate and are
collected. 1t differs in no respect from
the form in which it originally existed
in the grape. Cream of Tartar, then
while the most expensive, is the only
ingredient that should be used in q
baking powder to act upon the soda, a:
its wholesomeness is beyond question
Cream OF Tarter baking powders sell al
about 40 to so cents a pound.
Such are the facts, and every one
careful of tee health of the family
should remember this rule Baking
powders selling from 10 to % cents q

THE PROBLEM OF CURE.

For Varicocele, Hydrocele, Hemor
rhoids and associate diseases is a diff
cult one for the average sufferer to solve
because he does not comprehend the
danger attending Indifference and neg
lect of the first symptoms of disease,
and because he does not understand the
disasterous results of uncertain, expert
mental, or halfway treatment.
If prompt steps were taken to safe
guard health before such troubles have
completely undermined the entire
system, by exercising care and judg-
ment in the selection of physician who
is master of the safest and surest
method by which relief and cure may
be brought about, the mistakes of thou
sands of physical wrecks who have
failed in life and business, could be
avoided, states DR.. l.. M. Turbin, the
eminent Specialist of Chicago.
That the Specialists who, by devoting
his entire time to one branch of practice
can be assured crater success than the
average general practitioner in treat
ing such cases, because through con-
centrating his efforts he perfects a
method of treatment which does not
fail to bring relief to those suffering
with maladies within the scope of his
specially, mas Oeen proved Dy Df. Iuf-
bins record of cures affected among
our friends and neighbors. That the
Doctor has conscientiously earned the
goodwill and respect of this community
is an assured fact.
His courteous bearing toward every.
one, his earnest endeavor to give each
case the careful consideration and
scientific treatment necessary to bring
about satisfactory results, are evidences
that he is entitled to the entire trust
and confidence of one and all who re.
quire the services of a thorough, pains
taking physician, for any chronic
trouble DR.. Turbin is in our city once
month, and those suffering with
chronic troubles would do well to con
suit him at the Bells Hotel when he
visits Wausau, Tuesday, May 8th.

Married,
MADDEN-kEEGAN.


Despite very unsatisfactory day, as
wedding days are usually termed, very
happy and satisfactory event occurred
at ST. Joseph's church, Wednesday, June
9th, at 11:30 a. M. when Miss Henrietta
Keegan and Mr.. T. M. Madden were
united in marriage by the Rev. j. E.
Harlin. The attendants were the brides
sister, Miss Kathryn Keegan, and Mr..
Joseph Lynch of Chicago nephew of
Mr. Madden. The bride was beautifully
gowned in cream net over white silk and
carried white roses, while the brides
maid wore white and carried pink roses
After the marriage ceremony the bridal
party, accompanied by friends and rela-
tives, repaired to the home of the brides
mother, Mrs. Mary Keegan, at Haner-
vile, where bounteous wedding break
fast was served to more than one hun
dred guests. After considerable maneu-
vering on the part of fun loving guests,
the party started for Edgerton to make
the 4:25 train. The efforts of the jokers
to delay them until too late for the train
failed, as was evidenced by the quantity
of rice left on the depot platform by the
city friends who received them at the
depot. The happy couple left on long
and scenic journey and will be gone sew
eral weeks, returning in time to receive
friends September 1st at their home in
this city. The well wishes of their
friends attend them on their HONEYMOON.
Their destination is Milton Junction.
