Collapse of Big Hotel?Nine
Persons Killed.
Long Heacli, Cal., Nov. 10 ?
Five stories of the central wing
of new $750,000 Bixby Hotel col
lapsed today carrying nine work
men to death in the tons of tangled
wreckage. About 150 artisans
and laborers were scattered
through the structure at the moment
it fell and of these 100 were
carried down in the ruins, nine
being severely hurt. Thirteen
men on the contractors' rolls are
unaccounted for, but are prob
ably safe. None of the injured
will die.
Immediately after the collapse
of the structure hundreds of bystanders
lent aid in the rescue.

out and lines thrown around the
building, all but rescuers being
excluded.
Pitiful scenes were enacted
among the throngs who stood
outside the lines waiting for news.
An aged mother sat all day long
on the blurt' overlooking the hotel,
weeping and watching for
. the body of her son.
Capt. White, of Lancaster,
Writes Unique Post Card
to Yorkville Enquirer.
From Yorkville Enquirer.
i im: I ? I( I u i i t'l l-< lilt? recipiem
of a unique post card, something
dilTerent troui anything of the
kind that has ever t'onnd Us way
into this ollice. It consists of a
piece of so't |>ine 2.V incites wide
by inches long ana a quarter
of an inch thick. It came through
the mail last Saturday night trom
our distinguished fellow citizen
of Fort Mill, now le-iding in
Lancaster, Captain Samuel E.
White, and the inscription there
on is as pleasant as it is unique.
Here is the reading of the card :
Tabernacle of Noble Sonsot Rest.
Lancaster, S. C., Nov. 10, 1900
Yorkville Enquirer :
Dear Sir:?I think it nothing
bid right and proper to express
to you the great appreciation in
which your paper is held by its
readers, because through it so
much valuable information is
disseminated.
Your paper improves in every
respect annually, and Hie last
copy (received today) is par ex*
cellenoe.
This is not written lor publication
unless you so desire.
While The Enquirer is liberally
patronized it is to be regretted
that it lias not more subscribers.
It is the best publication in the
state.
With the best wishes for the
long continuance of this good
work. 1 am
Very respectively,
Sam'l E. White.
<)! course, we desire to publish
such an excellent te*timonial
from ?a witness so distinguished
and so disinterested as Captain
Samuel E. White. If any other
citizen of York lias been held iti
higher esteem by all who knew
him than Capt. White, we do not
Know me name ol that citizen,
or it tliere is another citizen in
York county who has devoted
himself more unselfishly to the
promotion ot the welfare of hu
lellow man, we have not yet
made his acquaintance. That the
good captain may be too goner,
otis to The Enquirer; that tin
opinion he expresses may he
higher than we dererve, we
franhly admit. But nevertheless
we are proud ot the compliment
and especially so because of it*
high source.
