Earthquakes Versus Frost
(Piscataquis Observer

NElScdlaQulS oDSeIN eT,l
A friend who lives in Riverside,
Cal, wrote us under date of April 21st
and in his letter said: WHAT ter
rible winter you have been through.
We had the mildest winter here
have ever known. Our wood bill was
$50 for the winter, but we cook with
gas and heat our sitting room with an
oil heater Our gas bill is about 81 a
month and oil bill $3.50, so it doesn't
cost SO very much"
If he had stopped there we should
have been deeply impressed with the
advantages of Riverside county over
Piscataquis county, but a little farth-
er along he described the effects Of an
earthquake shock which was felt
slightly, comparatively, in Riverside
but did great damage in Helmet and
San JacintO.
The Riverside Daily Press said of
the damage:
The most severe earthquake that
has visited Riverside county in &c
years Yesterday RACED practically ev-
cry brick and frame building in the
business sections of Helmet and San
JaCintO, entailinS loss conservative
ly estimated at close to 100000
There are but few buildings in either
city that are not more or less injured
as a result of the quake which oc-
Cured at $50 at San Jacinto. The
clock in the Farmers & Merchants
bank at Helmet stopped at 3.31
After reading the account of the
damage by the earthquake we decided
that if our winters are cold and the
frost heaves the buildings a little, We
prefer Maine to a country where the
winters are mild hut where earth,
quakes may heave the building more
than little. in fact destroy then
completely. 1t is as difficult to fine
perfection in climate as it is in peo-
pie and we. feel inclined to let wei
enough alone.
