Csston Ramirez Tells of Rude Awak-
 xolne by Earthquake Shock.

Tuesday night Mir. Cirilo Ramirez re turned from Oakland, where he went last week. on hearing of the earthquake, to find his three sons and his nephew. The sons. Gaston, Raymond and Clrilo and fhe nephew. Romeo, all returned to NogaIes with Mir. Ramirez. While be was at Oakland no one was ailoWeu to cross the bay to San franclsco;
 The Ramirez boys were al at st' Marvs academy at Oakland and were ln bed when the first shock came Wednes- day morning. They were m the boys, dormitorv, four story building and when awakened by the shock everyone in the large building rushed to the street, dressed as they were in sleep.
 s.I was awakened by the shock and the shaking of the building, said young G;aston Ramirez, but of course l didn't know what was the matter for while. I sat I'D in bed and rubbed my eyes, while the plaster was falling off the ceiling. When 1 looked up and saw what was coming down moved to the street right away, and everyone else did the same, except my brother, Cirilo. He remained ill his room and dressed before going out. After few minutes we all went back into the building and dressed.
 Some of us ran down to the ferry as soon as we heard of the damage in San Francisco and tried to get across, but were not allowed to go. We could see the flames springing up across the bay, but everyone was excited and no one could get any information.
 There were not many people crossed to Oakland from san Francisco that day The report that the city hall in Oakland had collapsed and killed sever al people was not true. While many buildings were damaged, none were shaken down and the only death heard ofwas caused by heart failure. All Wednesday night we could see the fire across the bay eating up the city.
 Thursday some 0f us got small launch and crossed the bay landing above the wharves, from where We walked down to the business section ol the city. We walked along Market street, over ruins of buildings that tum. hled into the street, till We were stopped by the guards
 Everything was confusion and people were tooexcited to talk about anything
 1t was Thursday morning that ths people began to cross the bay into Oak land and that night crowds of people slept in the streets.
