A graphic description of the San
Francisco horror was given by D. B.
Gillies, general manager and partner
in the mining interests of Charles M.
Schwab, as he waited at the Bellevue-
Stratford yesterday for the arrival of
the steel magnate, says the Philadel
phia Record. Later the two were
guests at a private dinner given by
Dr. M. R. Ward, of this city, a brother-
in-law of Mr. Schwab. Mr. Gilllee man
ages the Schwab mines in the Tona-
pah district, and has his headquarters
at Honopah, but a few days before the
catastrophe lie went to San Francisco
on business. '
“I was sleeping at the Palace Hotel,
which was about half a mile from the
fon-y." he said, "when I was awakened
by a great rumbling. The plaster fell
down and the big building, constructed
oi steel and the wonderfully strong
red-wood, shook and swayed almost
like a vessel at sea. I managed to get
out ot bed, but when I reached the
iloor the rocking was so violent that I
was unable to stand, and fell down,
lan to the door as soon as I could, but
the building was so wrenched that the
door was jammed, and I was unable
to get out. Then I jumped to the win
dows, but tliev, too, were stuck, until"
finally 1 managed to open one and
climbed out on the fire escape. Some
of the other fellows were even unable
to get out of bed.
I thought It was the beginning of
the end; that it waB all up with the
world, and that the grand finale was
due, and that the curtain was about
to drop. Then the tremors ceased and
the building resumed Its position and
1 was able to open the doors that had
been jammed. I had to run down the
steps, for the guides on the elevator
had been so twisted that the cars
could not be run. Everything' was
falling, and the people were greatly
excited.
“I then went outside, and later had
breakfast ‘In the fjoiel, And'then had'
my goods sent to the St. Francis,
which was. a quarter of a mile from
the Palace. This was supposed to lie
an absolutely fireproof structure, but
today it Is a mass of ruins,_wlth noth
ing remaining but debris and bent
steel frame, twisted like a stick of taf
fy near a fire.
A few minutes after the first shock
I counted fourteen distinct fires along
the bay und in other parts of the- city.
Some of them might have been caused
by furnace or stove fires, but to my
mind the fires started from electric
light wires. After the first tremors
the cars kept running and the power
was still on, and then came the fires.
To prove this it Is only necessary, to
show that In Oakland, across the bay,
where the earthquake was just as se
vere, the power was cut off and there
were no fires, while you know what
happened In 'San Francisco. If the
power had been turned off I don’t
think there would have been such
fire. j
The City a Miniature Hell.
“After going to the St Francis
went down and watched the fire, think
ing It would soon be under - control,
but when I saw that the mains had
burst and that the fire engines were
almost useless, I changed my mind,
and six hours after the first earth
quake tremor I and everbody else
knew .that the city was doomed un
less there Intervened a greater power
than that of man. The scene almost
beggars description. It was a minia
ture hell with hellish clouda of smoke
rushing over the city like a heavy at
mospheric blanket of darkneBS. The
wind veered and the flames swept
through and behold the -great fire
proof building was no more. People
took all they could and got away as
best they could, all Intent upon safety.
"There were many strange Inci
dents. For example, I was hurrying
along the street when I saw a woman
step on a live wire. A bluish flame
shot up about twenty feet. The wo
man fell dead, of course.
“But I want to say that it was
God-Bend that the barracks ot the reg
ulars were so near and that such
man as Gen. Funston was in com
mand. Two hoqrs after the earth
quake he had his-men on the scene
and kept order, and every one of them
was a general. They stood no monkey
business, but did their duty in a com
mon sense and business-like manner,
and Gen. Funston and his regulars
cannot be too highly commended,
Those persons who had legitimate bus-
lness' they permitted to go .on their
way, but they tolerated, no foolishness.
Safi Franclaooaboundell with hanj
characters; and the fire’offered them
plenty bt dpportundtyftmt'to them the
regulars 'Bh6Wh'd''n3''ifi6i'cy.' They shot'
hill and not to wing, or malm. I
saw two men trying to J>reak open a
cash register with hatchets. There
was no foolishness about ceremony,
but blngl went two rifles at the same
time, and two robbers were dead. On
the pavement In front ot the ruins of
SL Francis Hotel, for several
hours, were the bodies ot two men,
each shot through the head. On them
was a board with the words In chalk
These men shot for stealing.”
Buffering 8oon Relieved.
“For tho first few hours there was
some suffering, such as want of water,
especially among the women and chil
dren, but less than six hours after
ward rations and victuals of all kinds
were distributed, and the only real
suffering was what might be called
Immediate. People in the unburned,
district took In other persons, and
there was hospitality In abundance. In
fact, their spirit of hospitality exceed
ed their capacity to take care of their
less fortunate townspeople.
“To be sure there was more or less
violence and sceneB that- are repellant
to manhood, but I want to say that I
have seen more, ungentlemanllness In
theatre than I did on that terrible
day. I saw women hurrying along
with val.Ues and men politely offering
to carry them.
“The Southern Paolfic railroad did
great work and everybody who went
there was taken oare of. \
“Of course San Francisco will rUe
again, but just at present the"greatest
suffering will be aomng the clerks of
kinds and their families, profes
sional men and persons ot that class,
and not among the laboring class for
whom there will be much work for
some time to come. The others have
had their means ot livelihood wiped
out, and this will be one, of the. hard
est problems to solve.”
Mr. Gillies left San Francisco two
days after the first earthquake, and
on his way east he saye he paesed
dozens of relief trains bound for the
stricken city.
MAN’S WEAKER HALF.
One Side, of His Body Always Stronger
Than the Other.
The popular belief U that the left
side le weaker than the right, and, as
In all popular beliefs, there Is much
truth In thU. In most cases, says the
Grand Magazine,' the right arm Is de
cidedly stronger- than the left, the
bones arq larger and the muscles more
vigorous.
When we come to consider the low
er limbs, however, we find a precisely
opposite state of affairs; the left leg Is
stronger than the right In the great
majority of cases. This want of sym
metry Is noticeable all through the
body. Nine times out of ten we see
better with one eye than with the oth
er and hear better with the left than
with the right ear, or vice verBa.
Not only so, an Injury to the body-
burn or a cut, for Instance—causes
more pain on one side than It would
were It Inflicted on the other. Even
diseases attack one side on their first
onset In preference to the other. Ec
zema, varicose veins, sciatica and even
tuberculosis begin invariably to mani
fest themselves on nur weaker slue. A
blistering plaster, too, will provoke an
eruption only If applied to the right
side in certain Individuals; in others
only If applied to the left side.
The simplest j way, apparently, of
discovering which' Is our weaker side
Is to observe which side we lie upon
by preference when In bed, as it Is
certain that we will instinctively adopt
the attitude which Is moBt agreeable,
or, rather, which causes the leaBt In
convenience; In other words, we will
lie upon the side the muscles of whlot;
being more vigorous, are less sensible
the pressure upon them of the
weight of the body.
Statistics and observation go to
prove that In about three cases out of
four It is the left side which Is the
weaker, thus giving reason to the pop
ular dictum, furiously enough, how
ever, pneumonia, It has been noticed,
unlike most diseases, usually attacks
at first the right—that Is to say, the
stronger side of the body.
Bailed t>r Torchlight.
Allerton Hall ,w«s upward of four
centuries the property and residence of
the Kltehlngmnn family. It was the
largest and most ancient mansion In
Chnpeltown, consisting of about sixty
rooms, with gardens and pleasure
grounds. The -Kltehlngmnn family tor
upward of 400 yetira were carried from
this hall by. torchlight to be Interred In
the choir of'St F'etCfs "obflrob in Leeds.
At the Interment :of any of the family

ty-six branches, ; wns always lighted.
In the year 1716 Robert Kltcblngman
died May 7, aged 100 years. He or
dered bis body to be burled with torch
lights at Chapel Allerton. He was In
terred on May 16, when 100 torches
were carried. The room where the
body was laid was hung with black,
and a velvet pall, with escutcheons,
was born by the chief gentry. The
pallbearers had all scarf, biscuits and
sack; the whole company had gloves.
Fifty pounds were given among the
poor In the chapel yard on the day of
his Interment Mary,, his wife, died

It Is often the case that people meet
with accidents and bruises that cause
disfiguring discolorations, from which
they Buffer net a little embarrassment
and annoyance. It Is worth while to
know that there Is e simple remedy
and one quite, within the reach

The PHsIgMt Far a Day Stary.
The story that David R. Atchison ot
Missouri was president for a day start
ed as a joke. Atchison was president
•f the tenets at the expiration of Pres
ident Falk’s term; and the law at that
time provided that that official, should
succeed to‘the presidency In default of
both president and vice president
March 4. 1840, was Sunday, and Pres
ident'Zachary Taylor did not take the
-oath of-office until Monday, Match 5.
Somebody .thereupon started the joke
that neither Polk nor Taylor was pres
ident during the odd day and that
Atchison must have been. But If Tay
lor could not under the constitution be
president' until he bad taken the oath
of office how could Atchison? He did
not take the oath either.—St Louis

Mr. S. L. Bowen, of Wayne,

not stand straight I took Foley’s Kid-

of the second cured me entirely;”
