Terrible. Work Of An Earthquake
on the Island of
Ceram.
HUGE WAVES ARE STARTED
Water Sweeps Over Trees Thirty
Feet High-TwO Towns
Destroyed.

The San Francisco Bulletin says:
"The disaster that overlook the
Island of Ceram on Nov. 2 cost the
people Of that district an immense
loss in life and property. The steam
ship America Marue, which arrived
from the Orient, brought advices
from Ceram that over $4,000 people
were destroyed on that island alone
when the dreadful earthquakes Of
November shocked the Japanese
coast and agitated the islands adj
jacent to the empire. On the night
of Nov. I'd the people of Ceram were
awakened by a terrific shock of
earthquake that seemed to work
from north to south. Everyone fled
from their houses and took up places
in the public square. A few hours
later it was reported the water was
rising in the Bay of Ambona. The
sea came forward in the shape of a
huge tidal wave and forced the water
into the bay entrance. 1t came up

The Governor Orders An Extra
Session to Consider COnstitu-
tional Amendment.
EQUAL TAXATION LAW
The Objet-Pingree Wants AS
seSSments Oh Cash
Value.

Governor Pingree Wednesday
sent out call for an extra session
of tue Michigan legislature to con-
vene next Monday "to consider the
submission of an amendment or
amendments to the constitution
which will permit the enactment Of
laws which will provide for the
equal taxation of (alA property by
the assessment of-the same at its
cash value and such other matters
as shall be submitted by special
message. -
The call for the special session
tells of the passage Of the Atkinson
railway taxation bill by the last
legislature and the declaring OF its
unconstitutionality last spring by
the state supreme court, and says
because of the decision the constitu-
tional amendment meant is neces-
sary before laws can be enacted
providing for the equal taxation of
all property.

Road Between L'Anse and
Baraga Rendered impossible
BY the Severe Storm.
RAPIDLY BEING REPAIRED.
WashOuts Caused BY High Seas
on Bay Worst Known in
Many Years.

The severe storm Monday night
caused great damage to the road
between L'Anse and Baraga, at
the point termed the head of the
bay, and as a result the road has
since been impossible.
Monday it rained most OF the day,
but toward evening turned to
snow BY 10 O'Clock the wind
was blowing gale, causing very
high seas on the bay. The road
at the head of the bay is nearly on a
level with the water, and extremely
close for quite distance. The
high waves not only washed the
roadbed away, but piled up masses
of driftwood, logs, underbrush, etc. +,
until there was hardly any resem-
blance to public highway left.
1t is stated that the following day
the water was at least two feet
deep along the entire line OF the
washout.
Workmen are now engaged in re-
pairing the damage as well as pos
sible, and will doubtless make the
road passible for travel during the
winter, but next spring it will
evidently be advisable to use the
old original road, which runs safe
distance from the shore, and not
spend any more money on the
present road, which has cost
thousands of dollars, and been the
source of SO much trouble, on ac-
count of washouts.
The Bay Shore road, between this
village and the brick yard, was
badly washed out, and the Mission
road is now used for traffic to Pc
quaming.
The street, crossing Fall River,
near the old mill site, was aso
damaged considerable by the waves.

The Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul through train, and an ex-
justice of the peace--to the latter
being attached fur coat and what
appeared to be pair OF No. IL
boots-created comieal sight
at the d., ). S. & A. depot in this
village Wednesday afternoon. The
aforesaid train does not stop at
local stations between Calumet and
Champion unless tagged, and on
this occasion went whizzing past
the depot. The ex-justice evidently
wanted to take ride on the "choo-
choo''9 cars, and as the rear coach
passed the platform he flew after
: it like an oyster in pursuit OF a
reindeer. or course he did not
succeed in overtaking the train,
but it is safe to say, how
ever, that he made q better run
than at the polls on election day.
