QUAKE ROCKS SEVEN DEVILS
Oregon-Idaho Border Gets Severe

Baker, ORA severe earthquake
shock was felt at 8 o'clock Tuesday
afternoon in the Seven Devils coun-
try, along the Snare River, that d.

The towns affected were Homestead.
Or, and Billiards. Landing, Landore
and Cuprum, Idaho. Telephone lines
were put out of commission, and the
reports are meager.
1t is reported that at Homestead
houses were rocked, upsetting chairs
and breaking dishes. At Landore the
shock was more severe. Windows
we're broken. stoves rocked and dishes
were shaken from the shelves. Some
houses there are believed put out of
plumb.
Al Cuprum the inhabitants ran
from their homes badly frightened.
and panic was imminent. as the
houses swayed. The earth quivered
and a roar like thunder came from the
earth.
Billiards. Landing felt the shock dis
tinctly, but II is believed little dam
age was done there. No fatalities are
reported.
The shock was distinct in all places
and lasted fully one minute. The peo-
pie of all towns are badly frightened,
and are preparing for repetition of
the quake. All the towns affected are
small, the largest being Homestead,
with about 800 population. They are
100 miles southeast of here. A SINH
lar shock was felt there four years
ago. but 1t was not as severe or as
long as this one. Baker had shock
about 20 years ago, but 1t was very
slight.
