HURRICANE RACED
At Vancouver Doing Immense Dam
age to Property.

Vancouver. B. c., Feb. S.-A hurri-
cane ragged here last night causing
property damage all over the city.
The wind which became almost a
cyclone, attained a velocity of fiftyfive
miles an hour. Along the water front
the waves broke over the wharves and
bridges, sweeping away boat houses,
wrecking boats and dashing two steam
launches against a pier. battering the
craft into total wrecks. The stone laden
scows went adrift and were wrecked
and two steamers broke their moorings
and were brought to their docks with
great difficulty. Telephone wires in the
suburbs are down and the long distance
system is completely paralyzed.
Trees were torn up by the roots, flag
stats and chimneys fell and a cottage
on the Westminster road was crushed
like an egg shell by gigantic tree
which was blown down and fell on the
roof. Though there were three occu-
pants in the house at the time all
escaped injury. The damage to resi-
dents. factories. wharves and shipping
will aggregate many thousands of dol
lars

sHARKEY AS REFEREE.
Sailor Acts as Ring Official in Two
Philadelphia Fights.

Philadelphia, Pa. Feb. 8.-The open
ing boxing exhibition at Industrial hall
was held last evening and proved some
thing of a disappointment to the 1000
spectators. This was especially true of
the wind-up between Charles Stevenson,
colored, of this city and Tom Carey of
New York. Carey, while possessing
some of the earmarks of a good fighter.
seemed too Inexperienced to get through
Stevenson's crouching guard. The spec
tators begged Tom Sharkey, who acted
as referee for this bout, to make the
men fight, and Tom tried to induce
them to get together, but it was no use.
/. The preliminaries were somewhat bet
ter. '&londike" of Chicago and Den
Yer" Smith, both colored, boxed six
rounds, and it was an even thing. The
latter was the best contest of the even

DRUGGISTS FIGHT'PHONEs
Minneapolis Pi makers Up in Arms
and Make Dire Threats.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Feb. S.-The 100
druggists of Minneapolis last evening
by a unanimous vote adopted resolu-
ton declaring the Northwestern Tele-
phone company their foe and agreeing
at once to throw every telephone of the
company out of their respective stores.
This action will, it is claimed, be fol-
lowed by hundreds of other business
men of the city in the near future.
The Northwestern Telephone COM
pany has gained the enmity of the
druggists by sending out notices that
no druggist shall allow others than his
employees to use the instrument, and
in several cases where the order has
been violated the company has forcibly
seized the instruments.
The company admits that it wants
to put the automatic pay telephone sta
lions in the drug stores, and the drug
gists will not allow this. The matter
will probably be carried into the courts.

big to go any distance, but a couple of
months in some quiet country spot
would put me all right for six rounds,

hard as ever. feel very confident that
I could get there-never felt better in

Before Long.

Detroit, Mich, Feb. 8.-A contract
was closed this morning by Burns and
Stallings with Tom Sharkey to be the
star of the next Cadillac Athletic club

round contest with Jim Jeffords. the
California giant, who believes that he
can best the sailor.
1t will not be a mere boxing exhibit
ton, but the men will do their best as
long as both are able to continue. There
will be two good preliminaries, and the
show will probably be the biggest
drawing card the club has ever had.
