for the, departure of the train to Win
ston-8iilem.vWe related hla story to a
group of traveling men. A reporter
for the Charlotte Chronicle was pret
ent and he wrote the following:
"When I went to San Franr-lsco,"
said Mr. EMte, "some af my friend
told me that an earthquake was a
vtry common occurrence, and they
advlstd me not to become alarmed at
all If 1 felt a slight shock evert few
nights. So on the morning of the big
shake-up I recalled this. fact and tried
cat to become frightened, when 1
found my bed reeling aud the plaster
ing over my head dropping about, on
the floor. I thought to myself: 'This
Is just one of the little shocks they
have been telling moabout and noth
ing will be thought of the slight dam
age to the ceiling; that will be fixed
tomorrow.' But I soon came to the
conclusion that my earthquake
pert had never themselves tested s.
shock of this calibre. The roof of
the building In which I was sleeping
(I was on the first floor), began to
fall in and the rumollngs grew louder.
I didn't deem it necessary to time the
length of the shock( the newspapers
said they lasted 4$ seconds), but it
seemed to me that It was ah age. The
noise didn't sound llks thunder or any
thing else that I tver heard. It was
too deep for thunder.
""I gathered myself together In a
second ar.d groped my way out of the
swaying building to the street. A
mas of horrified humanity greeted
ray eyes. The people were surging to
and fio on the streets, with not
soul uttering a sound. Horror was
written In every face. The only
round to be heard was the crashing of
falling buildings and the indescribable
rumblings of the shocks.
"The Ore add.4 to the horror a
few minutes after the occupants of
the bulldlnga gathered ore the streets.
The .most peculiar part of all to me
was the silence that reigned, in the
multitude of people. Every soul was
panic stricken and they seemed to
look upon the burning of the magni
ficent ttruotures with the utmost In
difference. The only expressions that,
could be heard would be cry of
some father or mother for a loved one
who had perished In, the flames. . I
saw one poor woman with a baby in
her arms, wandering aimlessly about
the streets, begging every one she
passed not to throw her In the har
bor. 8b 9 had lost two children and
her -mind was completely gone.
"I dMn't go to Golden Gate Park.
b,ut the night following the earthquake
I managed to pet as far a Presidio,
where I received the best attention m
the world and had an opportunity to
see the system and patriotism of
Uncle Sam's men. You have heard
the expression tlfnt a fellow Is good
enough to give you the shirt off his
back. Well, this actually happened to
me. After wandering around on the
street a whole night, I caught a
severe cold and1 ws threatened with
pneumonia. A flrstIeutenant saw my
condition and made me put on his
blouse, telling mo at the same time
that be would see that I got all the
medical attentkm possible,
"Tho millionaire and street waif
stood side by side In the line for
bread. The' polders were placed In
a eemi-circlo and handed out the pro
vision to tho people, who were
marched with clock-like regularity.
There was no scrambling or scuffling
and every person got plenty to cat. ,
"A day or two before the provisions
came. Some of the restaurants In the
city ctiitrg&l exorbitant prices for ev-,
erythlng, but this was stopped by the
soldiers as soon as tha facts became
known, nl some places they were
charging as much a $1 for a loaf of
bread. If one of the sufferers hap
pened to go to a restaurant of Unit
kind all he had to do was to report
the matter to a soldier. , Uncle Sam's
man would tell the restaurant man to
come across with the right price and
then he would order every body out of
the place. The doors would bo ckmed
for a few seconds, all of the edibles
would be placed on the counter and
tho invitation given: 'Everybody come
in- nnd help themselves." This soon
put an end to the high prices. It
didn't take more -than a day or two
for the soldiers to establish the tact
that he was absolute master of the
situation. .
"After everything got in good work
ing order- not a soul kicked on lend
ing a helping had to the soldiers.
Some ' funny things happened, even
amidst all the ad scenes. Ono morn
ing ! saw the soMiers digging a
tiencb near one of the wrecked build

every man that passed to relieve the

knte-deep. One of the best dressed

and one of the soldiers told him to
