Inmates that the loss of life in the
great earthquake is at least 10000
and that it is probably much greater.
One of the fairest, most fertile and
most densely populated regions in the
world, rich in historical associations,
is now a desert waste. All former
castrophes since the recording of hui
man events was begun fade into insig-
nificance in comparison with this.
Besides the appalling number of the
dead there must be even more of the
manned, the bruised, the helpless, the
homeless and the hopeless. II is a
case that calls for nothing less than
universal philanthropy, demanding the
sympathy of every heart and the help
of every hand. The touch of nature
which makes the whole world kin
should be sufficient, but there are
special reasons why the people of
Bryan and Brazos county should be
moved by this awful calamity. Many
sons and daughters of that afflicted
country are our neighbors and probably
some of these number friends and rel
atives among the sufferers.
