ALL RUSH TO NEW GOLD FIELD.
Rich Discoveries Have Been Made on
Pike Creek.

News has reached Victoria, B. c., from
Skaguay of a rich placer find on Pike
creek, which runs into Tagish lake, in
northern British Columbia. The discov-
erers took out from $1,000 to 81 500 in a
week, and took their sacks to Skaguay to
speak for themselves. Alaskan towns
have been deserted, and MEN are rushing
to Tagish. There is a staff Of British Co.
ltmbia officers at Bennett, only sixty
miles away, so there will be no difficulty
in regard to stalking of claims.

as fake" until some men came along
with a sack full of nuggets to show for
weeks work. Some of them have as
high as 81 200. 1t is reported to be a Sec

the average, and few going as high as
$50. The return of the miners fairly set

PEACE BOOMS TRADE.
EXPANSION IN ALL LINES MARKS
CLOSE OF WAR!
Few of the Increased Orders Due to

Review of the Week Is More than
Encouraging-News in Brief.
End of War Helps Trade.

r. G.. Dun & Co. in their weekly review
of trade say: "a war which brought no
shrinkage of business while it lasted has
brought with its ending quite remarka-
BILE expansion. Orders and purchases have
increased in nearly all branches, few as
yet being of such nature that they can
be attributed to the material enlargement
of trade with the lately Spanish islands,
which must come little later. 1t is odd
that the iron industry, while reporting de-
cline in products, shows more surprising
gain in business than any other. Wheat
has further declined 2 cents in spite OF
general holding of better grades by farm
ers, which renders receipts low and visi-
BILE supply small beyond precedent At 76

FATAL STORM IN TENNESSEE.
Thirty or More Said to Have Been
Killed in a Cloudburst.

Thirty or More Said to Have Been
Killed in a Cloudburst.
A terrible cloudburst, in which at least
twenty lives are known to have been sac
rifced, was visited upon the community
Of Beech Creek, about fifteen mikes north
Of Rogersville, Tenn, which place is
eighty miles distant from Knoxville. The
torrent OF water fell in the vicinity of the
home of William Figan, a well-to-do farm
er, and his entire family, wife and tive
children, was drowned and washed away
with the food. Figan, however, escaped.
The deluge Of water carried with it every
other human within its reach. The cloud
burst destroyed several thousand dollars
worth of property. Whole crops were
washed away.
Very heavy rains caused the sudden
overflow of a mountain stream that swept
down the cove, carrying away houses and
everything that lay in it's path. The time
Of the disaster was Thursday Afternoon,
but because of the remoteness Of the To-
cality, in the mountains of East Tennes-
see, the news was slow in reaching the
outside world The victims were all Of the
poorer class of mountain people living in
log cabins in a narrow valley. 1t is be-
lieved the number Of dead will reach
thirty.

NINE PERSONS DIE IN CYCLONE.
Others Are Buildings and
Crops Destroyed.


A terrific cyclone, accompanied by hail,
running from northeast to southwest,
struck Sunday night about four miles
west of Gary, S. D., small village on
the Watertown branch Of the Chicago
and Northwestern Railroad. Everything
in the path Of the storm was swept away
Nine people died at Gary, and there is lit
tie doubt that search through the strlck-
en- country will reveal other, and perhaps,
many victims.
The storm skirted one mile northeast OF
Hutchinsons farm and struck ms mousse
driving it through the barn, and causing
a complete wreck. The Northwestern
track is torn up for some distance and
telegraph poles and snow fences are down.
The cyclone was not wide in extent, put
it's track was thirty to forty miles hong.
The buildings of Carl Peterson, NJ. Ken
yon, Mr.. johnson, Mike Hunt, DR.. Bent
ley, Charles Burstry and many other
farmers were completely destroyed. Many
farmers lost almost their entire crops and
large numbers of cattle and sheep. han
stones over eight inches in circumference
were picked up after the storm was over.
One farmer had 200 acres of wheat in
shock. 1t was taken up by the wind and
no trace of the crop is now left.
Reports Of damage by wind and hail
storms have been received from many oth-
er points in the Northwest. AS the wheat
is practically all harvested in South Ia
kota, in Minnesota, except in the North
ern BED River valley, and in North Da-
kota, except in the northern half Of the
State, there does not seem to be much
chance OF extensive injury. In the VI
cinity of Darlington, N. D., however,
there was an extensive area covered by
one storm which swept over parts OF
Stutsman, Wells, Foster and Eddy coun-
ties, causing a total loss of about 2O,OOO
acres Of wheat.
The cratic character of the storm is
evidenced by the report of no serious dis
turbance along the lines of the Northern
Pacific, while on the 500 and Great
Northern, which intersect the former sye
TEN, at various points, much damage was
done, both by wind and hail.
The storm of Sunday night seems to
have been general throughout Wisconsin,
western Michigan, northern Indiana,
northern Illinois, Minnesota and the Da-
kotas. At Racine, Portage, Oshkosh, Mil
waukee, South Milwaukee, Whitehall, Al
bany, Lancaster, Pewaukee and other
Wisconsin towns there was heavy rain,
and lightning caused number of fires
which resulted in considerable damage
cellars were flooded, windows broken, and
trees broken down. At Aurora and Har-
ward, ILL.,, the damage due to the storm
was heavy, and in western Michigan the
loss to the fruit growers will exceed SlO,-

PRINCE HoHENLoHE, Germany's
Prime Minister, says sit is proof to
him of the political immaturity of
the German people and especially
of the press that they are loudly
and almost unanimously on the
side of Spain in this fight" 1t has
struck the people of America that
way, and worse, too. There is some
thing remarkably stupid in the
general German luminosity to the
United States. This nation is not
a political rival of Germany-only
a commercial one. Germany al
most grovels to court the favor of
Russia, that is only awaiting a ia
vorable time to smash the German
power. On the other side is France
chatting for revenge for Alsace and
Lorraine. Great Britain is con-
stantiy In tho way of German ter
ritorial aggrandizement. 1t looks
like u piece of thick medicines for
the German people and press to
cultivate the enmity of the Amer
lean people in matter that is of
no particular concern to them.
However, the German government,
wiser than its people, is rather
friendly in expression.
