If by magic, a village in nails and -

night's seismic disturbance M the
velley of Los Aliemos„ in the north-
ern part of Santa, Burbara County.
Sawing the last four days that sec-
tion of the country has been shak-
en by a series of earthquakes that
Is without precedent, in the history
or tradition of the Pacific Coast, and
the contieuarice of the disturbances
and the increasine severity of the
shocks have so terrorized the inhab-
itants that they are leaving for oth-
er parts as rapidly as possible. and,
even now, the village is almost en-
tirely deserted.
'the disturbances began on Sunday
evening with a, shoet which caused
several thousand dollars' worth of
damage to property hI the villno,e
and the surrounding country, This
ehock was followed by a number of
disturbances less severe and less dis-
astrous, continuing throughout the
remainder of Sunday night and Mon-
day. -On Tuesday night, beginning
at 12.10 o'clock, there was another
series of seven shocks, all of which
were light. The most severe shock of
the entire series occurred at 1.30
o'clock: yesterday morning. Hills
were shaken and twisted to their
foundations and the valley trembled
and rolled. Great fissures were run
deep in tho earth, hills and knolls
oppearing in level valleys, springs of
water appeared in places that had
been dry and the general, topography
of the valley was greatly changed in
nmnv respects.
With the first warning of the sound
of the approaching disaster the ter-
ror-stricken people rushed into the
streets and sought places or saroty in
vacant lots and roads, while many
fled towards the neighboring hills.
The first ibrations were similar to
the preceding disturbance in direction
and effect, but they were immediate-
ly folisaved by the most terrific shock*
ever experienced in this section of the
state.- The earth trembled and rolled
anti twisted unts it. was impossible
for people to stand erect and the in-
habitants crouched together fearful
that the earth might open and swal-
low them. The terror Inspired' by
the rumbling of the • earth was in-
creased by a, sound of falling build-
ings, which gave some idea of the
destruetion that was being wrought.
When the most serious shocks had
passed and the rumbling sounds had
died away the people gathered about
the ruins of their. places of business
and when they saw the extent of the
damage many of them, fearful of a
repetition of this experience, immedi-
ately started on foot or by any con-
veya nee that could be had for pieces
where the previous shocks had been
less- severe. With the dawn of day,
the stricken village had the appear-
ance of the ruins of a city long de-
serted.
Since the first disturbances on Sun-
day night there hatee been more than
70 distinct shocks and those who
have hen keeping the records have
now given up as the disturbances
have become almost continuous.

Looping the Loop

which was introduced ,in the Fore-
paugh-aells circus, and seen by hun-
dreds of Ingersoll people, is being dup-

ented, and has been a ;source of greet
profit to the company that owns it.
During the summers, it was used at
various resorts, the vehicles that
