LETTERS FROM
SAN FRANCISCO
REFUGEES IN BERKELEY
On Scenic avenue, Berkeley, situated at a point on the hillside directly in line with the center of the Golden Gate, whose wide expanse of waters shine like burnished gold in the rays of the descending sun, stands the residence of M. Doyle, a well-to-do resident of the college town. Here a party of refugees from the stricken city have found shelter. They are relatives of the editor of the GAZETTE. Miss Dorothy Doyle, a sweet-faced child of 10 when last seen by him, now a student at the university, writes as follows concerning the experiences of the family during the fire:
BERKELEY, Cal., April 23.
When the Gazette came this morning we were glad to find that Anaheim was one of the few towns fortunate enough to have escaped the great temblor. Berkeley lost some chimneys but San Francisco was first severely shaken and then almost totally burned. The fire started first in the wholesale district near the water front and south of Market. People were cut off from the ferries and rumors that a tidal wave had swept over Berkeley and Oakland made the terror even greater.
On this side of the bay folks spent an anxious forty-eight hours watching for relatives and friends. Grandma, Eleanor, Edith, little Violet and Dr. Jackson arrived safely Thursday afternoon after having made the circuit of the fire, following the bay shore from the Presidio eastward, around Bay street to the ferry. Edith had been under the oaks, with Chico from the college fraternity co-eds as waitresses.
The refugees fled so swift they have to be supplied with thing from clothes to meet Berkeley is working on them and the San Franciscan well cared for. The South is giving them free travel within a radius of 100 miles the congestion. Supplies short and every one must pay.
Grandma's house burned ground, but we feel thankful together. Grandma saw things in the flight out Long This is the main thorough North Beach and runs right Presidio. An unbroken people extended the whole lea avenue. Many people took hold goods out to the side the fire first started, only them when a crew arrived in a row of buildings in an effuse fire. The earthquake water mains. A great many people pulled trunks on miles, and one tent, 100 feet both walls made of trunk high, the top being made Nearly everyone was dredged best. One woman saved a box; in it were three hats; an easter bonnet, was wrapped sue paper. Mamma saw our caught up an alarm clock moment and saved nothing else.
Refugees came to Berkele sorts of pets, from green guinea pigs.
About one-third of the restrict is still standing and out. People are cooking or walks until the chimneys spected. The scarcity of water greatest trouble now, but are being repaired. Anyone
On this side of the bay folks spent an anxious forty-eight hours watching for relatives and friends. Grandma, Eleanor, Edith, little Violet and Dr. Jackson arrived safely Thursday afternoon after having made the circuit of the fire, following the bay shore from the Presidio eastward, around Bay street to the ferry. Edith had been quite ill for over a week and a well person could not have walked that distance without being overtaken by the fire. First an automobile carried her a few blocks to Jefferson Square, then some one loaned Dr. Jackson a buggy for ten minutes. He drove Edith to Ven Ness and Lombard. From there she rode in a grocery wagon, out toward the Presidio. They spent the night in an empty flat where Eleanor lived two years ago. The owner willingly loaned the flat but could spare no furniture of any kind, since a small army of his own relatives had fled to his home from downtown.
In the morning the flames had reached the ridge of the hill, not many blocks away so the party began to look for some way of escape. Eleanor and Violet with the doctor walked to the ferry. The doctor met a friend who drove him back in a borrowed buggy and then with grandma and Edith the doctor began to call to every wagon that passed. Even scavenger wagons would not carry any one for less than $100. Finally they secured a spring wagon and were driven to the ferry just in time. By this time people from Chinatown and "Little Italy" began to pour into Berkeley and Oakland. Living so far down town they were able to reach the water front before the fire closed in. Since then until now the locals have run all day and night, bringing in refugees.
College has suspended work, with the boys in their cadet uniforms on duty in the city, which is under martial law, and the girls working in the Relief corps on the campus. Both gymnasiums are serving as emergency hospitals. Our new football field has become a camp ground under the direction of professors and with a guard. There is a big kitchen and dining-room
Refugees came to Berkely sorts of pets, from green guinea pigs.
About one-third of the restrict is still standing and out. People are cooking or walks until the chimneys spected. The scarcity of women greatest trouble now, but are being repaired. Anyone to the city is very likely to work digging, with a guard.
Last night the great number people who are living in the park from rain and wind.
LETTER FROM SERGEANT YOUNGBLU
Sergeant F. A. Yungblu writes Louie Kroenlows of the stirring incident life:
OAKLAND,
Just have a little time at best to let you know how we start from the time we left. We arrived in Los Angeles marched to the armory and depot at 10 o'clock; took to the north at the Southern P by way of Bakersfield and Oakland about 6:30 Sunday train went out to the ferry received orders an hour later back to Oakland, where we orders to camp in Lincoln tents were pitched, we re blankets and slept on the 11:30, when a rainstorm came we got out of there and we place called the "Market," ment floor, and for the second rolled into our blankets and drop off into dreamland. Hard time of it that night morning we marched back and pitched tents. Compete the first company detailed duty. Every man, except one to turn out for 24 hours. Fr was made color sergeant.
We all went up town in noon and had a time of it not seen San Francisco—once across the bay, and also to see was smoke. Things in Oakland, several large buildings propped up; every chimney down. The crowd here last night we saw the people for something to eat, men,
Get SCOTT'S Emulsion
When you go to a drug store and ask for Scott's Emulsion you know what you want; the man knows you ought to have it. Don't be surprised, though, if you are offered something else. Wines, cordials, extracts, etc., of cod liver oil are plentiful but don't imagine you are getting cod liver oil when you take them. Every year for thirty years we've been increasing the sales of Scott's Emulsion. Why? Because it has always been better than any substitute for it.

In the oaks, with Chinese cooks in college fraternity houses, and waitresses,
refugees fled so suddenly that they have to be supplied with every-thing from clothes to medicine. All day is working on the relief corps of San Franciscans are being needed for. The Southern Pacific line them free transportation at a radius of 100 miles to relieve congestion. Supplies are rather scarce and every one must pay cash.
Mamma's house burned to the ground but we feel thankful to be all right. Grandma saw such oddness in the flight out Lombard street. On the main thoroughfare near Beach and runs right out to the coast. An unbroken march of peo-ders ended the whole length of the city. Many people took their households out to the sidewalks when first started, only to abandon them a crew arrived to dynamite buildings in an effort to check the earthquake broke the remains. A great many of the pulled trunks on rollers for one tent, 100 feet long, had walls made of trunks piled four high being made of rugs. Everyone was dressed in his one woman saved just a bandit were three hats; the top one, or bonnet, was wrapped in tisher.

The crowd here is immense.
We saw the people line up
thing to eat, men, women and
the work of one man, but also states it
to be the work of a single night. The story runs as follows:
"A poor monk had been condemned
to death, but was told mockingly by his judges that if he was able to copy
the whole 'Code' between darkness and dawn he would be saved. Relying upon the impossibility of the task, those who sentenced him furnished him with the original copy of the 'Code,' with pen, ink and parchment, and left him.
"Death must have been as little liked in the middle ages as it is now, for the monk, forgetting the hopelessness of his task, commenced it. Before long, however, he saw that he could not save his own life by such weak exertions,
and, fearing a cruel and horrible death,
he invoked the aid of the prince of darkness, promising to surrender his soul if he were assisted in the task.
"The devil kindly obliged by appearing on the spot, accepted the contract
and sat down to the work, and next morning 'The Devil's Code' was finished, the monk being found dead. The copying clerk from the infernal regions presumably fled away with the poor man's soul as soon as the wicked compact was finished." — Pearson's Weekly.
