ice the official oath consecrates the officer,
have been called to witness the solemn cere-

are almost entirely without store
rooms, but are putting up tents in
which they will be able to dispose OF
their wares until more suitable quar-
ters can be erected. This element oi
our citizens are abundantly able to
care for themselves.
There are large number of people
in the city, including clerks, etc. with
and without families, who have lost
their all, and alarge number OF persons
also who are destitute and without
food or shelter, except what is given
them. These people are being cared
for the best way possible, but as II
will be some months before they can
be supplied with houses, any contri-
button in the shape of bedding, food
and household goods of all kinds Will
be most acceptable.
A labor bureau is being organized
and it is only a question of a few days
until all who want can find work
Those who have no visible means OF
support, and who will not work will
be ordered to leave the city, and Il
they don't, will be arrested and sum
