The city snglnesr estimated that II.-

ditions, tha contract would hava been
well along toward completion, but tha
uncertainty of tha foundation Where the

termination of thla contract unknown
to us. , .

morning," said Miss Mendenhall. "It
did little or no damage, but about 11:35
In tha rooming another shock came
Ailcn was felt all over the city. Win
dow panes were broken and,jnany chim
neys knocked down. , I was standing In
a drug store when tha second shock
came and was knocked over against tha
counter. At my feet there tumbled a
masa of pill boxes, tooth powder and
patent medicines. We thought tha day
of judgment was at hand.
"Thees two shocks were on Thursdsy.
I was told by friends that a ehock wss
felt In Los Angeles about tha same
