1t is estimated that there are fifty mil
lion coffee drinkers in America. We
long since passed the mark of being the
largest coffee consumers in the world,
one-third of the entire coffee grown be
ing used in America. This proportion
has been steadily growing since 1861,
when the total amount of coffee import
ed was only 10000 tons.
From Brazil, Peru, Java and Sumatra
Ceylon, India Africa, the Philippines,
and the islands of the tropical seas, bags,
bales and barrels pour into New York
city every year by the hundreds of thou
sands. From New York they are dis
tributed to all parts of the country
But the greater portion of the coffee
imported is retained in New York by the
famous firm of Arbuckle Bros.-the
largest coffee dealers in the world. They
buy more than all other dealers combin-
ed, and the name Arbuckle has become
synonymous for immense dealings in
the favorite breakfast beverage. This
has given them great prestige among
coffee growers in every part of the world
and as large buying always makes for
good buying, it is not surprising that
Arbuckles' has become famous as the
standard of coffee values, standard no
other house has been able to reach.
Millions of homes in every section of
the country to-day use nothing but Ar
buckles coffee. The test of experience
has taught the careful housewife that
her faith not only means money saved,
but that she is supplying the best coffee
that money can procure for the coffee
drinkers of the household.
One immense advantage possessed by
Arbuckle Bros. is that of being able to
deliversthe coffee berry to the consumer
with all its delightful aroma and flavor
intact. This they do by process, the
patents of which they exclusively hold,
covering the many little pores of the
berry thereby holding in its goodness.
The ingredients used in the process are
entirely wholesome and nothing delete
rious is used to mar the delicacy or flavor
or taste.
Part of the success of Arbuckles' cof-
fee has been due to the generous and un-
ique system used to popularize it. In
each package of the coffee there is list
of articles. With each package in which
the list is found the purchaser buys a
definite part of some article to be select
ed by him or her from the list, subject
only to the condition that the signature
on the package is to be cut out and re
turned to Arbuckle Bros. Everybody
should see this list,

Arrangements for the 1901 exhibit

stained glass windows are wonderfully
rich in coloring and tracing, both in the
ancient and modern ones. In one side of
this church is small chapel, and the
tile floor covers the tomb of Rubens, who
died in 1910. To the thinking person
tri p through these musty old churches,
most of them built before our grand
country was discovered, is full of vital
interest They are nearly always dark,
and when one wanders away from the
guide and seeks some dim corridor or
unnoticed alcove, the venturesome one
will be apt to find himself suddenly face
to face with life size statue of white
marble of one of the apostles or some old
patriarch. whose presence in the un-
certain light is anything but reassuring.
Although this is decidedly Flemish
city, the language spoken by the bonnie
bourgeoisie is French. The educated
people are of necessity linguists, for by
travelling from the center of the country
for two or three hours you reach the
frontier of either Holland, Germany or
France.

MOUNTAINS IN ALASKA
Intermittent Shocks Felt for
Week Between Bituya Bay
and Yakutat.
BY HAL HOFFMAN.

assures opened in the earth of the
mainland and steam is said to have
poured forth. Some of these fissures
were three feet across. Captain johann
sen says that in two minutes the ocean
rose twenty feet above high tide mark
and almost as quickly subsided.
The natives took to the high ground
in terror, and fell on their knees be-
seeching the great Father to save them
and their village. This high water
caught up all manner of drift wood,
logs, canoes, etc, and these raced back
and forth and across the bay carried by
strong currents which swept in every
direction. When the Dora arrived at
Yakutat a few days ago on the return
trip the Indians had deserted their
houses near the beach, and were living
in tents on the high ground. They were
still in great alarm.
At least thirty Yakutat Indians
are now in Juneau, having deserted
their homes and all their property In
seeking safety in flight.
A good story is told on the two Swed-
ish missionaries at Yakutat Rev. Mr..
Johnson and Rev Mr.. Hendrickson. They
wanted to leave, but the Indians would
not let them go. The natives told them
that the. Maker of heaven and earth
had his back up and was angry, and
they wanted them to stay and
'Skookum Wah Wah," which means
big pray, to pacify the Almighty. And
they had to stay.
DR.. c. w, Chamberlain of Tacoma,
dentist, who has been copper mining in
the Prince William Sound country, was
a passenger on the Dora. He says that
at Kayak, about 175 miles west of Yak
utat, the shocks were so severe that
the tops Of several mountains rolled
and tumbled into the ocean at their
base. This is a sandstone range and
great clouds of dust were raised by the
detachment and the slide. The Dora in
running along her usual course be-
tween Yakutat and Bituya, where
there has been heretofore fifty fathoms
of water stirred up the mud with her
wheel. 1t was reported that her keel
found the bottom, but Captain Johan-
sen denies this. He says that the stuff
the Dora stirred up was as thick as
cream gravy, while the water on the
surface had the usual clear appearance.
Captain Johansen says he feels certain
there had been'a violent disturbance of
some kind beneath the ocean there.

Changed. the G. A. r. organization will
not be represented in the parade. Joseph
w. Kay, department commander OF the
New York Grand Army Of the Repupilo
to-day sent a letter to General Roe decnn-
ing the invitation for a number of reasons.
These are in brief that the q: A X; forces
have been placed at the end OF the pro-
cession instead of the head of the column:
that General Roe has taken no cognizance
of Commander.in-Chie Albert D. Shaw
and has sent him no invitation TO any OF
the functions. The invitations for the O.
a r. organizations to participate IN the
parade have been extended secondhand
through Colonel II. II. Adams and that
General Q. O. Howard has been placed IN
command Of the G. A. r. forces on the
day Of the parade. contrary to the regu-
latiOns of that organization.
The decision to decline the invitation
was reached at a meeting held this after
noon, COmmander-in-chief Shaw, Depart
meut Commander Kay, Past Department
Commander Atkinson and Colonel J. A.
GOulden. chairman Of the memorial com
mittee Of the G. A. r., being present. This
action has been contemplated for some
time and the entire matter has been
placed before General Roe, who refused
to reconsider his plans. COmmander-in-
chief Shaw insisted that the @. A. r.
organization should have the head of the
line Of march and should be under com
mand of it's own officers. He pointed out
that General Howard who had been des-
authority to call out the posts ana that
they could not respond to his call, even
if they so willed.
The officials of the G. A. R. consulted
with Mayor Van Wyck recently. and he
expressed his approval of the change they
TO Governor Roosevelt, and received a
telegram from the Governor stating that
he was in favor of the change and that It
should be made. it would be one OF the
most desirable testimonials of the feeling
toward Admiral Dewey. a member Of the
G. A R. if he were escorted by a guard
Of honor composed OF his comrades.
Chief among the reasons given by Gen
eral Roe in his final refusal 10 alter the
position assigned TO the Grand Army was
that the parade would be in every sense
q military one, and that according to reg
the G. A. r. cannot march before a body
of men bearing arms. The u. A. r. Off
cials. however, claim that the parade is
in no sense a military one, but city one.

JUNEAU, Alaska, Sept. IA, via Seat
tie, Wash, Sept. 20.-The Alaska Com
mercial Company's steamer, Dora, Cap
tain Johansen, arrived from the west
ward last night with news of an exten-
sive and terrible earthquake extending
from Bituya Bay, $50 miles below va
kutat, 500 miles northwest into the
Cook Inlet country. 1t was the great
est phenomenon witnessed in Alaska
since a similar occurrence in the early
days of the Russian traders.
After short period of darkness the
earth literally sank down into the sea
and new islands and peninsulas rose up
like huge leviathans showing their
backs above the surface. Mountains
were shaken down and their tops slid
into the ocean. The whole was ac-
companied by several tidal waves, one
Of them fifteen feet high. The shocks
occurred every day for a week, from
Sunday, the Sd inst, to Sunday, the
10th inst, and were felt last Sunday
at Juneau.
Three very hard shocks were felt
here. One early in the morning and
another about 2 o'clock in the after
noon and the third about o'clock in
the afternoon. Buildings were badly
shaken and people ran out into the
streets in their fright. There were
minor tremblings all day long. The
large buildings, such as the Occidental
Hotel. Stannis Hospital and the
churches, shook and ratified like a crazy
ship in a gale. No damage to property
was done here or elsewhere. The noun
tains are all in place around Juneau.
The shocks here continued steadily
from thirty seconds to two minutes. A
gale was blowing at the time. The
earthquake seemed to be travelling
south and taking plenty of time to
shake up the country as it passed
along.
The most severe shocks were felt at
Yakutat and Kayak. At Yakutat there
is 6 large Indian village and several
traders stores. 1t is headquarters for
miners prospecting in that section of
Alaska and up the Alsek River. Around
the point of Ocean Cape, at the en-
trance to Yakutat Bay, is an island
named Kanak. This island sank twen-
ty feet into the sea. At high tide only
the tops of the trees are visible. Huge
