One Hundred Lives Lost.

Frank, N. w. T.. April 29.-An earth
quake happened about 4;3O o'clock
this morning, and the whole valley be-
low this town for over mile wide
was shaken up Immediately after
what appears to be a volcanic erup-
ton, which took place on top of Turtle
mountain, which overlooks the town.
Millions of tons of rock were thrown
down, covering the mine entrance,
the mine buildings, and burying them
hundreds of feet deep. All the men
employed about the mine outside were
instantly killed, and over twenty min
ers imprisoned in the mine with little
hope of recovery, The loss of life is
estimated at over one hundred, most
ly women and children. The noun
tain is still throwing up rock. The
country is covered with lava and
scoria for twenty miles, and the river
is damned with lava, causing a food.

One reason given for the difficulty ex-

American meal and other corn products
in France appears. according TO a re-
port made by ThOrnwall Haynes. the
American consul at Rouen, is the lack
Of proper packing. The meal and grits
are put up in paper packages. which
leak, which are of inartistic appear
ance, and which cost too much. The
consul states that two pound boxes of
meal sell at % cents. The French de-
sire such an economical food, but it
should be so per cent cheaper With in
telligent packing and the reduction in
price, the consul is sure a large trade
in corn products can be built up.
