THE STRICKEN CITY.
HOW SUNDAY
WAS SPENT.
I The Sunday news from San Francisco
indicates that it was anything but a
'day of rest. A general search for
! the dead was carried on all day long
and the list was constantly increased.
A large number of bodies burned be-
yond recognition «er entirely cre-
mated while those recognized were
I hurriedly buried and ti eir graves
marked. Outside of the death list
caused by fire and the crumbling of
walls hundreds died of ptomaine
poisoniBg from eating canned fruit.
The specter of starvation was ban-
ished by the arrival of hundreds of
car loads of provision.
The circumference of the area of
the great conflagration is, as near
as could be ascertained by the mark
logs of a cyclometer, twenty-six
miles and comprises the entire
business district and a large section
of the residence distr'ct all of which
was densely populated.
It was estimated today by compe
tent in-urance authorities that the
loss will aggregate S3 0,000,0 0,and on
tuis vast amount of property the in-
surance companies carried approxi-
mately $175,000,000 insurance.
Religous services were conducted j
in all parks and in suberb churches I
undisturbed by the fire. Some of the
so called fire proof buildings can be
rebuilt at small cost. Many of the
"sky scrapers" twenty 6tory build-
ings are standing in good shape wibh
tbeir insides burned out; they will
be rebuilt inside.
The water supply has been restored

opened up in tents: there was preach-
ing, foot racing, horse racing and
many tights. Buffalo Springs could
1 not furnish near water enough, hence,
j men worked all the first night digging
wells in the creek bottom.
At 12 noon 011 the 22nd the soldiers
started that great line of people,
strung along on the line as far as the
eye could reach east and west. When j
the hour for the great rush arrived | .

The following gentlemen and fellow
citizens have been selected by the
court to look into the crimes and
misdemeanors that may be presented
to them. Mr. John Cook was appoint-
ed foreman of the Territorial giand
jury and Mr. O. Cupps for the Federal
grand jury. Tbe same jurymen com-
San Francisco will arise from the course, thousands did not secure
ashes a greater and granderclty than claims and the litigation in contests
ever. The property loss will almost
wholly be made up through insurance
and tbe contribution of the govern
ment and the people. New fires start
up occasionally but are speedily put
out. The total amount subscribed to
to the relief fund up to Su iday eyi n-
ing was $4,154,000.
No further earth quakelshocks re'

Sunday, April 22, 1906, was the 17-ti |
birthday of that p irt of tbe territory >
commonly called (,Old Oklahoma ' j
and nearly all the larger cities of the I
territory in that district celebrated
the day Saturday, the 21, in a royal j
manner. The writer was in tbe grea'.
rush for homes on the 22nd day of
April 188!) and will never forget the
many scenes and incidents of the
great rush. The date came 011 Mon-
day and on the Sunday before there
was a tent city at Buffalo Springs,
Sumner township, this county, neal |
the line that day. Nenrly everybody j
coming across the Cherokee strip
followed tbe old stage trails, hence, |
there was at least 20,000 people ful-|
lowing the old Arbuckle trail which
p issed through tbe town site of Enid, |
going along through blocks 9 and 1.1,1
passed along in the rfcar of the Odd S
Fellows'hall, In fact the first Wave !
olli :e was erected right over'the trail,
where the Rainey-Davis wholesale'
grocery building now stands. The
United States cavalry stopped every-
body at the Springs, hence, hy Sunday
morning there was at least 20,000,
people there; more ptople than there I
i- in Enid today: nearly all men and
sapling boys, yery lew women and no
children* For about forty hours the
city of Buffalo Springs was the larg-
est city cyer existing in Garfield
county and the Cherokee strip todate.
During that memorable Sunday in
ibe history of this county: In that
