'torn Ecv. W. B. Langsdorf tho roport
f a eovcro oarthqunko which occurred
few weeks ago. Mr. Langsdorf says:
It was tho worst ever oxpcrloncod In
his part of Japan. Tho .natives say
hat about 30 yoars ago much damage
as dono and many pooplo Injured, but
his shock was tho worst tho city has
rpcricnccd. Many persons woro killed
r injured, houses collapsed or woro
hrown from! tholr foundations, and
argo fissures appeared in tho earth.
"There woro two shocks on Friday,
ir on Saturday, two on Sunday, two
n Tuesday, and another Wednesday
Ight. Many ptoplo refused to slcop
a their houses and camped out in the
elds thrco or four nights notwithstand
ing heavy rains. When tho first shock

ltals trying to help somo of tho wound-
fed soldiers. I was talking to a poor
fellow when tho wholo building sudden
ly began to rock liko a ship in a storm
t sea. My soldier friend had to
clutch at tho sides of thq bod to kocp
himself from falling out. I shall novor
forgot tho sight as I stood In tho center
of tho room with feet braced, just ns
oa a pitching vessol. Ono of my help
ers was on tho floor bealdo a bod with
his hands over (bis head; another was

og lino of white robed flguros, who
raddenly soomed to lmvo pressing busl
tees In that direction. All tho whilo
the building was creaking and groan
ing, tables wcro being overturned, and
flower-pots woro crashing to tho floor.
"If you tnko a pastoboard box and
push it first nt ono corner and then at
the other until you think it will fall in,
you will got somo slight idoa of tho
nj that building looked. After help
ing to make somo of tho poor follows
aomforUbU, I hastened homo. Tho
itreets woro filled with panic-stricken
peoplo and) on nil sides could bo seen ev
idences of tho visitation. You can. lm
igiao by great rollof at finding our
louso standing and all tho family unin
jured, though groatly nlurmpd. Whon
I examlnod I found how marvolloua
kid been our oscopo. Tho earth, houses
tad all, presents tho appoarance of hav
ing buckled) up, humpod liko a camel,
ind parts of tho ground appear to have
jumped by way of variety.
"All tho chimneys on both houses arc
tracked, and In ono of them tho chim
neys crashed through Uio roof and ceil
ings to tho ground. Not a room in
either bouso escaped, A. clock and
bookcase woro hurlod to tho floor, china
and glasswaro crashed, our wholo houso
nt moved from Its foundations and a
number of tho main beams and braces
supporting tho roof woro loft in danger
ous condition. Ono of many pocullar
thirds that happened was this: Ono
of my large book-cased was overturned
nd sent flying across tho room. The
lower shelf was fillod with largo books.
These wero loft in perfect ordor and up
right on tho floor, just ns if tho floor
Ud been tho shelf. Tho book-caso,
helves and all, woro three foot away
from these "books. It seems incredlblo,
but It is tho fact.
"In less than an hour I was gottlng
estimate on tho repairs, realising that
hamediato actios was necessary to save
tie bouso from comploto loss. I did
tfco beet I .could and consider the
wunt I have to pay to bo cheap for
Japan, and in America tho eamo amounF
f work could not bo dono for flvo tlmos
the amount. On tho next day it rained
Ty hard, but I kept tho workmon at
It, working with them on tho top of
toe- houses, between shocks of which
there wero that day six. Naturally tho
strain has been great upon us all, but
we are devoutly thankful that wo have

not know when thero will bo a rep

Yet we believe thero is work, horo for

hopeful of being nblo to do moro work
of improvement nnd extension along tho

tho noxt year than ovor before in the

It is tightly probablo that tho Echo

tlro energy of tho system is bent to
wnfd shortening distances and reducing
grades. Tho main lino botweon Hunt

20 miles by tho construction of this
