TERRIBLE EARTHQUAKE
San Francisco Vividly Depicted Book
Free with Three Months Subscrip
tion to The Astorian.
The Morning Astorian is giving away
to its suWribers a 400 page Hook on the
Sun Frath'isco F.nrlhquake.
The work will include sad recitals of
death nnd thrilling evperiences of brave
men who risked life and limb to save
their fellow euffifers.
It will deal with fortunes swept
away in a moment, with a night-innre
of horror that, settled down on a fniry
like city, in the space nf a breath left
it in waste; with the almost super
human nmnfulncss that woke in the
breast of the poor, homeless wretched
victims of Nature's wrath and stirred
them to resolution to rebuild stronger,
better, grander than liefore. San Fran
cisco, the beautiful, a sparkling gem
rcllcctiiig the mdiunce of tire evening
sun sinking in n golden shimmer in the
calm Pacific, has fallen; her glory,
wealth, strength and proud position
among the great cities of the globe,
have been stripped from her, nnd she is
nil but desolate. This book is printed
on fine half-tone paper with a large
number of startling pictures, and is
lioiind in fine red silk cloth. The book
Totalis for $1.50. Th Astorian is giv
ing it to you. You take the paper for
three months nnd pay $1.00 for the first
month. Thnt is all.

HEAVY AS USUAL.
Although Hie Southern Pacific took
mi evulsion out of Portland yesterday
morning consisting of twenly-six cars,
the Astoria M aside-Portland curlo
was not depleted in number, and was,
if anything, larger than i eulnninry.
There were thirteen coaches on the
train yesterday, and fRifl people, and the
additional thousand of Astorians at
the depot to meet and greet passing
friends, made things very lively around
the A. 4 C. depot at noon and in the
evening.
