R. L. Parish
I^)s Angeles, Cal., May 6.—In the
terrible calamity which has befallen
San Francisco Ibe preacher today finds
1 lesson for the whole nation. The text
s I Kings xix, 11, 12, “An earthquake,
but the j ord w-as not in the earth
quake; an i after the earthquake a fire,
but the Lord w'as not in the fire; and
ifter the fire a still small voice.”
“Extra! Extra! Extra!” cried the
newsboy in the street. Like the fish
monger's call, the voice echoed up and
leajjed through my study window. It
lid not cause even the tremor of the
aaud that held the moving pen. Why.
( have heard that call of “Extra! Ex
tra!” so often that it was like the cry
af "Wolf! Wolf!” In the legend of old.
I did not even have interest enough to
say, “Another railroad accident,” or
‘Another eruption of Mount Vesu
vius,” or “Another threatened war be
tween France and Germany over the
African troubles.” But suddenly my
self complacency was roused to vehe
ment action. A member of the family
rushed into the room and said; “Have
rou heard the news? San Francisco
is destroyed by an earthquake. The
Palace hotel aud the Tall building and
the great city hall are In complete
ruins. All the great hotels are gone.
All the places of amusement are iu
dames. A thousand people are dead.
The city has taken fire, and the water
mains are burst.” “God help them!
God help them!” was my answer.
“But very probably, like all first ru
mors, there is exaggeration in the re
port. San Francisco, with its splendid
buildings, could never have its founda
tions ruined. Let me find out from
headquarters.” So I stepped to the
telephone and called up a friend at one
of the promin -it city newspaper of
fices and asked. "Are reports as bad as
the first telegrams intimate?” "Much
worse, much worse,” he answered.
‘The city is In flames, and we fear it
will lie completely destroyed. The city
is said to have sunk. What the earth
quake did not upheave we fear that
the holocaust will obliterate. That is
the last report received, but the com
munication is broken now. The wires
are all dowm.”
Oh, the horror of It! The city of Los
Angeles lay stunned. Two-thirds of
all our population had friends or rela
tives or business interests in the city
of Kan Francisco. The bleeding, moan
ing, helpless cry Of America’s metrop
olis of the Pacific was nowhere an
swered by a deeper sob of anguish
thau that which arose from the City
of the Angels. We were one—one In
family love, one in business interests.
We seemed to be more than sisters
San Francisco’s sufferings were Los
Angeles’ sufferings. We are next door
ueighlx>rs in the family of cities.
The Wnit For Kewa.
Then the long wait. No new’s—wires
dowm; communication stopped. Ah,
Ix>s Angeles knew then what must
have l>een the feelings of the fathers
and mothers aud brothers aud sisters
when the telegraph wires thrilled aud
the news flashed over the northern and
the southern states that the battle of
Fredericksburg was being fought. Oh
the anxious moments of waiting for
the dead list! They say it is hard to
go to tiie front and die. I do not think
it is nearly so hard as to stay home and
live and think that your dear ones
are soon to be uumliered among the
dead. They say that all of 15,000 men
were killed at Fredericksburg. The
rumors at first declared that 10,000
were dead in San Francisco. “What—
will my telephone bell nevgr stop ring
ing?” “My husband is in the Palace
hotel.” says one. “My mother aud sis
ters are living there,” says another
"I have two brothers there,” says an
other. “My son is there,” says another.
Aye, they could say it, hut what could I
say? Nothing. The wires were down.
There seemed to be no hope. Then the
telegraph instrument began to click.
The streets aliout the different bulletin
boards were blocked. “News, news!
Give us the news!” was the cry. But
when the news began to come in, in
stead of a smile upon the lip, the
blanched cheek became paler, if that
were possible.
“Point Richmond has tumbled into
the sea,” was one notice. “The Cliff
House has disappeared,” was another
notice. “One hundred and thirty
blocks of business bouses annihilated.”
“The scavenger carts are carrying the
dead through the streets blocked by
falling walls,” was still another report.
“The ghouls robbing the dead are be
ing shot by the soldiers.” “City is un
der martial law.” “Five miles of wa
ter front ablaze.” “People fighting
each otiler in the streets, like stamped
ing herds of cattle.” O God, is there to
be uo end to this horror? Agony seems
to'be piling itself upon agony. Then
the old and feeble—what are they do
ing? Then the mothers with their new-
; bom l/abes by their side. Think of the
hospitals Is-ing turned into ebaruei
bouses! But still the telegraph instru
ment ticks on. Every little movement
of that instrument seems to be a
sledge hammer beating against the suf
fering heart of a nation.
Cries For Help.
Then, as the crowds grow thicker
and denser, we find men fighting their
way out. “What is the matter with
you?” we ask. “I>et me out!” they cry.
“Let me eat! I want to get the train
and start north at once. I must get
Into that doomed cHy and go to my
dear onea.” Crowds are now blockad
ing the railroad offices for passage; but,
though a thousand cars were to start,
It would not be a long enough train to
accommodate those who wished to go
to Kan Francisco to rescue their
friends. Then the reinirta came In aw
fully monotonous regularity: "Flames
spreading. Buildings l»eing dynamited
to stop onward progress of conflagra
tion. General Funston forbids any one
to land in the city. Water famine
threatened. All wholesale hoyses de
stroyed. Hunger and famine staring
the i»eople in the face. People dying
in the streets from exhaustion and
starvation. Napa Insane asylum de
stroyed. Stanford university buildings
down. Kan Jose a wreck.” Then, as a
wailing cry, came the telegrams from
Oakland, from the mayor and the gov
ernor: “Help! Help! Give us help!
San Francisco is starving! Help!
Help!”
Then the revolving wheels of the
railroad trains come rumbling into our
depots and the passengers alight.
These are the first refugees from the
city of death. “Were the stories over
drawn?” we ask. “No, no!” they an
swer. “Tell us about your experi
ence.” “We Mere asleep. Suddenly,
In the morning, we were flung from
the bed. The earth felt like a mouse
that a rat terrier had gripj>ed by the
neck, shaking the life out of it, and
then dropped for dead. Then the
streets were filled with men and wom
en and children in their night robes.
Some were praying, some shrieking,
some muttering like madmen. The
walls began to totter and to fall.
Buildings whieh had not !>een over
thrown became blazing furnaces. At
one time tbe flames leaped out of ev
ery window of the Palace hotel. The
top stories of the different buildings iu
many instances seemed to catch fire
first. Then men and women started
to run for the ferryboats. It was not
a struggle to save property, but a mad
race for life.”
Oh, why should we go on and de
scribe tills horror? In all the history of
the world there never was a more
ghastly tragedy. The battlefields of
Gettysburg and Waterloo w ere tragedies
of men only and bad not the pathos of
dying women and children, as had this
pandemonium of furies. And yet, amid
the heavy, rocking earth, amid the
hissing, leaping flames, amid tbe lurid
skies and the starving and the dead,
we can today find some gospel lesson
for practical use for everyday life.
May God help us to say the right word
and say it in the right way!
Jadve Hot.
Let us beware, iu the first place, lest
we attempt to handle the lightnings of
God’s wrath. I>et us halt before we
pass judgment upon the past sins of
this great city. The Bible says, “Judge
not that ye lie not Judged.” But in
spite of tyis divine command to “Judge
not” there are people who are ready
to affirm that the reason why this trag- 1
thall all likewise perish." Thus today.
In lieu of Christ's words when you pro
pose to say, “Tills catastrophe was sent
upon Kan Francisco on account of its
sins," I put my finger upon your lips
and say: "Stop, brother! Stop, sister!
Silence! Judge not that ye be not
Judged. Let God’s lightnings flash as
they will, but leave to him the right of
Judgment. I^et us first see that our
own city is cleansed of sin and not
talk so much about-other cities’ sins.”
Wouldst thou try to pluck the mote
out of thy brother’s eye aud perceive
not the beam which is sticking forth
sut of thine own eye?
Can we explain why certain i>eople
In San Francisco have to suffer as they
do? Here we cau see the flames, like
demons, leaping from business block to
business block. Millions upon millions
of dollars' worth of property have been
destroyed. Now’ the flames are head
ing toward the churches and th*. resi
dential districts. The dynamite is ex
ploded. Tbe guns are trained up the
w r alls. As the cowboy upon western
prairie fights fire with fire, so here the
brave men are fighting demolition with
demolition. Still onward and onward
move the flames. Then Paul Reveres
ride everywhere, crying: “Run for
your lives! Ruu! Run! Run!” “Oh,”
but some mau says, “I cannot run. 1
have an aged and sick mother here. I
must take her aloug.” Who is she? Is
she a Christian? "Yes,” answers the
man. “For years and years she has
been an ardent follow’er of Jesus
Christ.” Together we help her aloug.
After awhile she completely gives out.
“Water! Water!” she cries. “Give
me w r ater!” There is no w f ater. A
deathly pallor overspreads her features.
We get her out upon the hillsides, but
no sooner is she laid dowm upon the
ground than she breathes her last.
Why is all this? Why? Why did St.
Mary’s hospital go, and St. Patrick's
church and Wie First Methodist church
go, and scores of institutions of mercy
all go up iu flames? Why are so many
men who have always tried to follow
Jesus and have always given to God
their money now left penniless? Why
does God here seem to strike the Just
and the unjust unlike? I cannot say.
I do not know. I can give no rational
reason any more thau I can tell you
why God came into your home and
took your young wife from your side
and left you with three motherless lit
tle children to rear. “Why?” is a poor
word to ask at this time. All that we
can do is to say: "God is good. All
things are working together for good
to them that love God.” Therefore it
is only the glorious word of “faith”
which will bridge over us this aw'ful
chasm of despair. Faith, faith, faith!
I^et us have faith in a good God aud
leave the explanations to him for the
light of heaven. Earth cau never ex
plain tills tragedy.
Th« Whole World Kla.
But there Is still another lesson. This

the
metropolis of the Pacific was because
San Francisco was a city festering and
tragedy, as uo other tragedy during the
past centuiy, has proved how much
the American people are akin and how
reeking with sin. Why, no sooner was much they are willing to help each

or Galveston was ruined, or Charleston

sw'onl of death can i>e unsheathed and
strike any where. We are all living upon
the brink of destruction. Do not pity
the people of SauFraucisco for possible
future dangers which threaten them
any more than you pity yourself, no
matter where you may dwell.
We have had this thought pressed
very dose upon our hearts of late. “Do
you think this earthquake will strike
I-'Os Angeles?” was again and again
asked me amid those awful silences
during which we were waiting for
news from the northern part of the
state. “I do not know,” I would an
swer. “It may. It may not. No one
can tell. It may come to our own city,
just as It did to Kan Francisco or
Charleston.” One can feel as calm as
did the younger Pliny when he looked
upon the awful eruptions of Vesuvius
which buried Pompeii and Hercula
neum many, many centuries ago. He
penned this letter to Tacitus Just after
the two cities were submerged: “I
might boast that during all this scene
of horror not a sigh or an expression
of fear escaped me. My support was
founded in that miserable though
strong consolation that all mankind
were involved In the same calamity
and that I Imagined I was perishing
with the world itself.” Ko, amid the
horrors of SAn Francisco’s earthquake,
I did not feel like taking the train and
going east, as so many w’anted to do.
I did not feel like going even after
Los Angeles itself was vibrated by a
slight earthquake. Why? I felt that
w’e were all face to face wfith like dan
gers wherever we went. We are all
walking hand in hand with death, no
matter in what state we live. The
question which faced the people of Kan
Francisco is the same that faces all
people. Our satety is not to be decided
by how fast we can run, but by how
well we can do the work God has
given us to do. Then when the death
summons conies, no matter how or
wffiere it may come, may we be able to
calmly look up and say: “Here am I,
Lord. Here am I. Come and take me
while 1 am working at my post of
duty.”
The Bllver Llnlac.
Now, amid all these scenes of de
struction and sorrow that have come to
our bereft sister city, I send to these
suffering people words of congratula
tion and good cheer. First, I say,
“Thank God, If the earthquake had to
come, that it came in the early hours
of the morning.” You know that Kan
Francisco is situated at the Golden
Gate of the Pacific. It was truly the
Golden Gate then. The sun was Just
arising over the eastern bills and
throwing Its light upon the shimmering
waters of the bay. Had this earth
quake come hours later Oakland and
Berkeley and Kan Rafael and scores of
other suburban cities and towns would
have emptied their thousands aud tens
of thousands of business men and shop
pens into the great metropolis. Then
the huge office buildings would have
been crowded. Then, when the walls
cracked and fell, it would not have
meant the loss of hundreds of lives
but of thousands upon thousands
Thank God, I say, that the earthquake
came at 5:30 a. m. instead of 10:30
a. m. God be praised, we say. Kan
Francisco’s walls have toppled, but
Kan Francisco's fathers aud mothers
and children live. Even the blackest
clouds may have the brightest of silver
linings.
Keeond fact for congratulation: A1
though the city of Kan Frandsco has
fallen, yet the city of Kan Francisco
shall rise again. The future S in Fran
cisco which shall arise will be as much
ahead of the old city as the modern
locomotiv is better than tbe old psai-
rie schooner or <-anal boat. Like Gal
veston. its streets will be broader and
lim'd witii nobler buildings. Its pal
aces will i>e richer, its stores filled
with better goods. Its people will have
better homes. It is all nonsense to talk
DO YOU GET UP
WITH A LAME BACK ?
Kidney Trouble Makes You Miserable.
Almost everybody who reads the news-
to kn
papers is sure
now of the wonderful
cures made by Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great kidney, liver
and bladder remedy.
It is the great medi
cal triumph of the nine*
teenth century: dis
covered after years of
scientific research by
Dr. Kilmer, the emi
nent kidney and blad
der specialist, and is
wonderfully successful in promptly curing
lame back, kidney, bladder, uric acid trou
bles and Bright's Disease, which is the worst
form of kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is not rec
ommended for everything but if you have kid
ney, liver or bladder trouble it will be found
just the remedy you need. It has been tested
in so many ways, in hospital work, in private
practice, among the helpless too poor to pur
chase relief and has proved so successful in
every case that a special arrangement has
been made by which all readers of this paper
who have not already tried it, may have a
sample bottle sent free by mail, also a book
telling more about Swamp-Root and how to
find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble.

not been children of God, as their fore
