Latest From Galveston.

Galveston, Sept. M,-Fifteen hundred
to 1900 persons drowned, city almost
in ruins, the wharf front entirely gone,
every ocean steamer stranded and death
and destruction on every hand, with a
money loss that can not be estimated now,
is, so far as can be learned at this hour,
the result of the appalling calamity that
has befallen Galveston. The great storm
has left her helpless, and her stricken peo-
pie are compelled to appeal to the outside
world for aid. The estimates of loss of
life vary between the figures given, but an
accurate count of the dead is impossible
now, and the real number killed in the
storm will probably never be known. No
one attempts to estimate the damage to
business and residence property. The fine
steamer Alamo lies upon the top of the
Mallory wharf and big English cotton
laden steamer was driven ashore at-Texas
City. Other vessels are aground in differ
ent parts of the bay, some hepelessly
wrecked. The tug Louise of the Houston
Direct Navigation company is under water
at Reddish. Two of the crew were drown
ed, the remainder escaping in the lifeboat.

The Spokane Industrial Exposition,
will be held this year. from Octo.
Der 2d-to the 10th inclusive. The man
agement is new and many new features
are to be added. Mr.. w. e. Hawley,
secretary of the Chamber of Commerce,
is secretary and manager. The work
of preparing for the Exposition was
commenced earlier than ever before and
in consequence many improvements are
promised. 1t has been decided to re-
duce the admission fee from the twenty
five cents Of last year to fifteen cents,
which will undoubtedly make the at
tendance larger than ever before.
Many new entertainment features al
ready have been secured, the greatest
of which is the Royal Marine Band Of
Italy, forty pieces, twelve soloists and
one tenor singer. This is the finest
musical aggregation which ever came
west and only was secured because they
desired to make trip to San Francisco.
Music lovers Of the east have gone mad
over the magnificent music of this
band.
Among long list of entertainers
who will contribute to the amusement
as well as instruction of the visitors to
the fair, in addition to the band, two
or three famous performers have won
worldwide regulations. Among these
Is Atlantic, who in beautiful flowing
robes performs wonderful feats of fire
dancing, all the while posing upon a
large globe of fire which rolls about the
stage under the control of the beautiful
dancer. Little Nero, the wonderful A.
year-old tight-wire walker, is another
big attraction.
The premium list for the exposition
has been prepared with great care this
year. 1t is now ready. A large amount
of money has been appropriated for
cash prizes, and in addition some splen-
did special premiums are offered. AS
usual generous cash prizes will be
awarded to the county and district ex-
hibits, and a $3.50 Studebaker wagon
will be given to the best individual
fruit exhibit raised on one farm; SIS
double set of harness will be awarded
for the best individual exhibit of
grains, grasses, roots and vegetables;
$50 steel range for the best exhibit
Of canned goods and preserves; $50
improved Spokane sewing machine for
the best exhibit of jellies and pickles;
a handsome $85 light wagon for the
best individual display Of garden
truck; s175 buggy for the best gen
eral exhibit of fruits, grains. grasses.
roots and vegetables. raised by one man
in either the Palouse or Big Bend coun-
try.
Last year the mineral department
was universally pronounced one Of the
best, if not the best, at the exposition,
and this year there will be still better
display of the mining resources Of the
Northwest.

Deafness Cannot He Cured

Ply local applications, as they can not

There is only one way to cure deafness,

Deafness Is caused by an infamed condi-

Pekin, Sept. SIT is unofficially but re-

If Prince Ching can discover the EN-

candidate. Prince Ching comes under the
imperial edict, and two other leading

probably be Lii Hung Chang.
