KLAW0CK IS
 DESTROYED
The Bustling Little Town on Prince of Wales Wiped
 Out By Fire
Loss is Heavy-No Insurance.

The cry of fire when heard in Alaska is one which is fraught with the gravest consequences and is well calculated to make men's hearts stand still.
 It Was this cry which was heard on Monday last in the lit tie village of Klawock, located on the west side of Prince of Wales Island: and two hours lat CT there was nothing remaining of the town save only mass of smouldering ruins. The fire start ed at 10 a. m., in the cannery of the North Pacific Trading & Packing Company which is To- cated at Klawock. It spread so rapidly that those a, work in the c..nnery barely had time to es- cape with their lives. In very few minutes the cannery was in a mass of flames and the fire had communicated to ac joining build ings, once started there was no stop until every thing was wiped out. The cannery, sawmill, store warehouses, meSSrOoms, bunk houses, and a score or more of dwellings were all destroyed.
 The fire was caused by an ex plosion of gasoline which was used to heat soldering irons.
 The greatest loss is the loss of the greater part of the seasons pack of fish. About 7OOO cases were sent below short time ago and the balance amounting to about 12OOO cases was in ware house awaiting the arrival of the ship, which is already on the way from San Francisco, and was entirely destroyed. There happened to be 4CO0 pounds of giant powder stored in one of the buildings, but fortunately it was gotten out and removed to place of salty, otherwise the loss of life would have been terrible, as it was a number of persons were badly burned, none seriously. The loss will foot up to S100,0OO with no insurance.
 A. s. Wadleigh the superin- tendent, and H. F. Swift, book keeper, are both we'll known in Wrangel, and great deal of sympathy is felt for them partic- ularly as they were both interes- ted financially in the business. MT. Swift left on the Cottage City for San Francisco; and it is not known until he returns whe- ther the cannery will be rebuilt, Mir. Wadlelgh remains at the scene of the fire.

EARTHQUAKES
 FELT.
Alaska Disturbed By The
 Elements.

Perhaps the severest series of earthquakes which Alaska has experienced m the history of it's occupation by a civilized people occurred between the 3rd and 12th inst.
 They traversed the entire coast from northward of the Aleutian archipelago to the Dixon entran- ce, adistance of about ?, GOO miles, one of the greatest areas ever af- fected by seismic phenomena.
 The shock to the extreme west ward was greatest on Sunday, the 3rd inst. AtKyak island great Assures were opened in the earth and tidal wave followed which swept inland hundreds of feet beyond the highes water mark on record.
 On the mainland the mountains were split and torn by mighty convulsions. Great gaping tissur- es, twenty to one hundred feet in width are to be seen where for merly a mass of solid rock pres ented itself. In a number of in, stances mountain peaks were cleft in twain and hurled into the valleys, thousands of feet below. Everything was in motion. The whole cou1 try appeared as if dan cing hornpipe at the bidding of natures giant forces. Passengers on the steamer Excelsior say it was at the same time one of the grandest and most awful scenes old mother earth ever presented to the gaze of an awe stricken people.
 The shock on the same day was felt all along the coast. Skaguay and Summit were considerably shaken, while at Juneau there was just sufficient disturbance of the earth to be nOticeacle.
 On Sunday the shocks were continuous from noon till about 8 o'clock in the evening at vari- ous points along the Alaska Pac- fife seaboard. The only one, how ever of an alarming character felt in Juneau occurred at about 1 p. m. It continued for over half a minute and threatened ruin tc the large mirrors and plate glass windows of saloons and stores. Everybody, particularly the lad ies, were more or less excited, and in an incredibly short time houses were emptied and the streets crowded with an anxious throng of people.
 At Douglas island and in the Silver Bow basin, miners work ing under ground were driven to the surface.
 Many of the glaciers in the vii cinity were considerably shaken and huge masses of ice precipit ated into the ocean.
 The steamer Dora which arriv- led at Juneau on Thursday morn ing brought an account of the de-

,struction to the westward. The passengers report that on Sunday morning there was succession of shocks at Yakutat bay which eliminated at about 8 o'clock in the morning, when it seemed as if all the. earth's artillery had opened fire on the bay and sur rounding country.
 At Kaunthauk island there were alternate Impressions and uphervals of the earth which fin. ally left one half the island some ten or fifteen feet below the level of low water mark. The old Rus sian graveyard, so long an object of interest to visitors, is entire ly submerged, it's position bene- ath the waters being indicated by the thirtyfoot cross, the top of which is still seen above the sur. face at low water.
 The shock at Yakutat bay las ted for about two minutes, during which time there was, among the indians in particular, the widest excitement imaginable. Every body was thrown to the ground by the violent swaying motion of the earth. All were affected by sensation such as accompa- nies seasickness. The waters of the bay were churned as if into yeast and and appeared to whirl and run in every direction at the same time, great ruts were torn in the beaches, drift wood and debris was thrown upon the cliffs natives screaming with terror, ran to the hills or took refuge on boats in the harbor, great Assures opened in the earth, the mission church bell rang as if calling out fire brigade, while all the for ceS of nature, animate and mani mate, seemed to ws il a funeral dirge amid the crash of ruin.
 Fortunately no lives were lost, and as the houses are mostly one story buildings it is not thought the damage will be great.
 The earthquake which was gen. eral at points to the north and west was not felt at Wrangel, although ship men coming in to this point all report having ex- perienced the shocks. Captain Crook of the steamer Alaska re- ports that in Gastineau channel and Stephens passage, near Ia ku, the ice from the glaciers was so thick as to greatly impede navigation.
 Another shock was felt in Jun eau on Friday Sept. 15. At the Louvre theatre the excitement was so great as to completely empty the house of it's numerous patrons.

OFFICER STEWART A HUSTLER
Sold so Tickets to POIiceman's Ball
Mayor Ross to Lead Grand March

Policeman o. K. Stewart is the great
est hustler ever put out to sell tickets.
He ought to have been a book agent. Yes
terday he was out selling tickets for the
policemen's ball which is to be given in
the Auditorium Thanksgiving night He
went out on his beat in the morning. AT
half past 2 his pockets were so heavily
loaded with coin that he had to hunt
Chief Cubbon, treasurer of the ball fund,
in order to get rid of his cash. He turn
ed over to Mr.. Cubbon even $50. having
sold so tickets that day. There is a
great demand for the tickets among the
people who love to dance and want TO
help the policemen out in their efforts TO
get new uniforms, and it is thought, from
Mr.. Stewards experience, that the ball
will be a great success, financially as
well as socially.
1t WIS announced yesterday that Mayor
Ross and his partner would lead the
grand march, an honor which has been
greatly sought by Judge Mitchell and
Captain Mcmillan but it seems that the
mayor won out. Other particulars Of the
ball will be announced from time 10 time.
and it may be safely predicted that no
arrangement that will add to the jollity
and interest of the function viii be
omitted.

EARNED $4,000 In 90 DAYS
This Is the Record of Two Boys With
Corn Crop

If the big corn crop raised by the two
energetic sons of Captain Means of Min
neha township is 70 be a sample of the
crops in this county, Sedgwick county
has not been estimated nearly as high
as it ought to be on its corn crop this
season. Captain Means was in the city
yesterday and was seen at the court
house. While he refrained from in any
manner boasting his corn crop the re-
porter learned that Mr.. Means two sons
put in, cultivated and gathered 10 acres
of corn, without any outside help This
alone is worthy of mention, because it
could not have been done anywhere else
in the world outside of Kansas. They
finished cribbing yesterday and found that
the two boys have earned within 90 days
bed over 100 bushels of excellent corn
Estimating that this corn will be worth
80 cents bushel before the month is out,
the two boys have armed within 90 days
little over 5000. That Is not bad for
two industrious young men on a Kansas
farm

THE MOSES ENDURANCE
How the Governors Trained AnimaI
Won Wager.

While the peculiar pacing gait of a
moose will not carry him over the
ground as rapidly as the deer or carl
bou, has endurance far surpasses that
of either of these animals, says the
Lewiston Journal. For a short spurt
or in very deep snow the caribou can
easily discount the moose, but for an
all days jaunt, where the course is
fairly open, the moose has no rival.
Many years ago, when Sir Edmund
Head was governor of the province. he
owned q tame moose that performed
remarkable feats of speed and endur-
ance. On one occasion the governor
wagered $500 that his moose could tray-
Ell from Fredericton to st. John over the
ice, a distance of "a miles, in faster time
than any team Of horses in the stud of
Lord H!ll, of the Fifty-second regi-
ment.
A sledge was attached to the moose
and another to -the horses. The river
ice was covered with about eight inches
of snow. The start was made opposite
Government house at o'clock in the
morning. In seven hours the moose
and his driver were in Market square.
st. John. Lord Hills team was dis
tanced, one of the horses expiring at
Gagetown, and the other reaching st.
John three hours behind the moose.
