Ulysses Michl Tell of Experiences in
Los Angeles This Summer

Mr. Newbecker, of this city has re
ceived the following newspaper &C
count of the experiences of some Of
his Ohio friends in the California
earthquakes during September. The
paper says:
Ulysses Michl and family have jus,
returned from trip to California
They spent about two months on the
coast, arriving there in time to ex
perience all the thrills of the earth
quake shocks. This is something
that you don't read about in the Cali
fornia newspapers or in the literature
supplied to tourist. Quite possibly i,
is a mistake on the part of Californ
ians to suppress the details of these
interesting phenomena. 1t is an ex
|perience never to be forgotten and II
might be played up strongly as an at
traction instead of being regarded as
a detriment. This thing Of being agi
tated by some mysterious, cosmit
force as il one were a human milk
shake can't exactly be called pleas
ant while it lasts, but 1t doesn't last
long and if one lasts through it as
most people do it will be thing tt
talk about the rest Of ones life.
It was in Los Angeles about July
10 that the Michls felt their frs
earthquake shock. Mr.. and Mrs
Michl and their young son were down
town on shopping trip. The boy
had wanted to do his shopping at the
five and ten cent store and they haG
gone to one. 1t was big store ir
the heart of the business district
They were in this store when the
shock came.
Dishes Fall
The building shook in just exactly
the same way that one would shake

experienced. He had property in
terests in both Portland and Los An
geles and he had determined to con-
centrate all of his interests in one
place. He had about decided that the
place would be Los Angeles and he
was out with real estate man look
ing over a bungalow when the quake
came. He would not go indoors again
even to pack his grip. He made
them pack his grip for him and took
thefirst train out of town. That quake
cost Los Angeles at least one invest
or.
There were man and his wife
from somewhere in Texas in the
city. She was standing in the door
'of a store waiting for her husband
when the quake came. She was in
terror. She could not be induced to
go indoors but waited there for her
husband. When he came they hur-
ried directly to a train and left the
city.
Trains Crowded
you couldn't get sleeping car
berth ou tot Los Angeles. Every
thing was crowded. People fed from
the city as IL it were doomed. The
hotels and restaurants and business
men appealed to the Chamber Of
Commerce and the Chamber of Com
merce appealed to the newspapers.
That accounts for the suppression Of
all news of the earthquakes. There
is no doubt that they strike terror in
to the hearts Of everybody who goes
through them. Yet all Of these earth
quake shocks did no damage to Los
Angeles worth mentioning"
