age Done.

effects of the hurricane on the island
OF Jamaica We're greater than at first
believed. Port Antonio, on the north
coast. was overwhelmed. Port Maria,
another town on the north coast, also
suffered severely. The coast is strewn
with wreckage of local sailing vessels.
The entire eastern end of the island
has been devastated. Villages have
been wiped out and public buildings
and churches demolished. Thousands
of the peasantry, rendered homeless
and destitute, are wandering about
seeking food and shelter.
Considering damage to property dur

comparatively small though the pres

will reach fifty. Hundreds of persons
were injured. The property loss is
$l0000,000.

Mitchell, some of them turning over

had given $50. grew suspicious and

first. Today there are nearly 5000 head IN
the various herds distributed along the
Alaskan coast from Point Barrow to Bethel
The existence of the 10000 natives of north
western Alaska. as we'll as the success OF
the miners who are beginning to throng
into the interior of the territory of the Tar
north, is dependent upon these domestic
reindeer: their clothing. their food. their
transportation. their utensils and their shell
ter are all furnished them by the reindeer.
There is plenty of room for 100000 OF
these hardy animals. MIR. Grosvenor says.
Dr. Jackson found that each year the
whales were going farther and farther
north, and that the natives in arctic and
subarctic Alaska were rapidly losing the
sources of their food supply.
Something Had to Be Done.
The modern hunter had found the whales.
walrus and seals such easy prey that he
was ruthlessly destroying them. Also the
wild caribou. that the native had easily cap
tured before. had been frightened away
and was rarely seen.
DR.. jackson saw that unless something
was done at once the United States would
have to choose between feeding the 2OOUO
and more natives or letting them starve to
death. The latter course was impossible;
the former rather expensive as supplies
would have to be carried some 5000 miles
from Seattle.

gold deposits thousands will there make
their homes, and towns and villages are
already sprfnging into existence
Ihe reindeer Is to the far north what the

GOD has provided and adapted for the pecu-

greater the degree of cold the better the

Future of Reindeer Industry.
Even If no more reindeer are imported
from Siberia. Mr.. Grosvenor says IL the
present rate of increase continues, doubling
every three years-and there is no reason
why 1t should not-within less than TWENTY
hve years there will be at least 1000 900
domestic reindeer in Alaska. This is a con.
sentative estimate and allows for the deer
that die from natural causes and for the
many that will be slaughtered for food. In
thlrty-five years the number may reach
nearly 900 head. and Alaska viii be
shipping each year to the United States
anywhere from 10000 to 1000 600 reindeer
carcasses and thousands of tons of deli
cious hams and tongues.

in the neigilborng mining camps. Last
year deer for slaughter brought from SGD
to s100 each, while for male deer trained
to harness miners gave much as $3.50
apiece The herders at this same station
earned last winter 5000 in gold for freight
ing with their reindeer to the mining
camps. The deer were worked in double
trace harness like horses, and hauled on
sleds 100 pounds each
OF the sixty individual owners of domes-
tic reindeer in Alaska today forty-four are
Eskimo. Most of them have served a five
year apprenticeship. and having earned
their deer are competent to care for them.
Each owner has his own Individual mark,
which is branded on the left or right ear of
each of his deer
The bureau of education hopes that in
time each mission station will possess a
herd of at least 5000 head.
Relief of Point Barrow Whalers.
The relief of the whalers at Point Barrow
in the winter of 1878 is cited as the first
forcible realization of the wisdom of the
government in stationing reindeer herds in
Alaska.
The original motive in bringing the rein
deer to Alaska was purely philanthropic-
to give the native a permanent food supply
Since then the discovery of large and val
liable gold deposits upon the streams of
arctic and subarctic Alaska has made the
reindeer a necessity for the white man as
well as for the Eskimo. Previous to the
discovery of gold there was nothing to at
tract the white settler to that desolate re-
