Come and see me. O.M. CLARK, 24-lmo Agent 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 the great chandelier, consisting of thir 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 July 28, 1716, aged nlnety-Beven years. She. was Interred precisely in the same way.—“Anne is of Yorkshire.” a For Block Byes. 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 every one. Immediately after the acci dent mix an equal quantity of cap sicum annum with mucilage made of gum arable. To this add a few drops of glycerin. The braised surface should be carefully cleansed and dried, then painted all over with the capsicum preparation. Dee a camel’s hair brush and allow It to dry, then put on the second or third coat as soon as the first Is entirely absorbed, A medical journal Is authority for (he statement that If this course Is pursued Immedi ately after the Injury discoloration of the bruised tissue will be wholly pro vented. It Is also said that this reme dy Is uneqnaled os a core (Or rheuma tism or stiffness of the nock.. - 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 Republic. Mr. S. L. Bowen, of Wayne, writes: “I was a Bufferer from kidney disease, so that at times I could not get out of bed, and when I did;I could not stand straight I took Foley’s Kid- nay Cure. One dollar bottle and part of the second cured me entirely;” Foley's Kidney Cure works wonders where others are total failures.' For sale by Hllsman-Sale Drug Co. £D. ft « CLAYTON JONES.
