THOUSANDS OF LIVES LOST.
Typhoon Creates Great Havoc OFF
Swallow, South China.

Victoria, B. c., Nov. 3O.-Advices
were received from South China by
the Athenian of the loss of thousands
of lives as a result of the destruction
of several hundred fishing junks in a
typhoon OF Swallow. The havoc was
awful when the gales swept down on
the vessels. For days disabled junks
drifted helplessly about, their occu-
pants suffering from thirst and hum
ger. The Hong Kong government
tender Stanley rescued a number,
picking up eight junks and taking 1872
men OF the vessels that were aban-
doned. The Stanley then returned
from the rescue of the FISHERMEN and
reported there were 400 junks fishing
of Swatow when the typhoon came on
Nov. 4. From the Stanley 81 disabled
junks were seen flying signals of dis
tress. Several junks towed to
Hong Kong and then a relief cruise
was made.
Meanwhile three tropedo boat de-
stroyers, the naval water boat Cherub
and a Chinese cruiser were sent out
aud rescued many. Several hundred
men were taken from wrecked crafts
suffering greatly, some being without
food or water from two to five days.
OF the 400 fishing junks at least .,
are reported disabled or sunk and
thousands of lives were lost.

Chicago, Nov. 3O.-Following it's an
nounced policy of Capitalization, the
International Harvester company has
decided to lay off $500 of its 1900
employees and thus effect q saving Of

suffer. OF the 1000 employees in the
Deering division, 5000 in all are to be
laid of. The Mccormick division
will not discharge so many, but 1,500
of Its 1000 employees being slated for

Richmond street for a week, Sunday
eliminated in an incipient riot in the
central part of the city. Murder and
lynching were narrowly averted. The
premises on Richmond street are
owned by A. T. Anderson, who occu.
pied the second floor, while the family
of William s. Ford, as tenant, occu.
pied the first floor.
The feud was between the Ander-
sons and the Fords. The latter hav-
ing paid their rent, Anderson could
not eject them, and attempted two
days ago to urn the Fords out by
turning the water on the upper floor
and flooding them out, damaging his
own property over $1,000. Saturday
he fired repeatedly through holes made
in the floor. At one yime when there
was a. fusillade Of shots from the up
per floor, Mrs. Ford and her baby were
slightly scratched with bullets.
Sunday anderson cut with an axe a
large hole through the floor and cell
ing and tanned the hose directly onto
the Fords. The exchange of shots
that followed attracted hundreds OF
people and also a force of police. The
latter had great difficulty in holding
the neighbors and the crowd back
when Anderson's door was broken il
and he was arrested for shooting tc
kill. Fordwas shot behind the cal
and would have been instantly killed
but for a silver plate inserted in his
head after he had been shot years age
in q similar instance.

The SPIRAL TOWER
Lionel Legare on His Spiral Tower
GREA1EST FREE EXTRACTION PUT ON BY ANY
CARNIVAL OR CARNIVAL COMPANY
FREE TWICE EACH DAY

Lionel Legare achieved a world wide reputation as a gymnast
before he undertook the Spiral Tower. This act he devised
himself, and til 5 the result ofyears of patient study and effort.
His success with this performance was phenomenal from his
first appearance, and beyond any question. he is today at the
very top Of his profession.
One. who has seen the performance finds it rather difficult
to describe il. So many features Of it have taken years and
years to perfect that the average observer is apt to wonder
at it all, but still not appreciate it.
The spiral tower 10 q soldly built affair Of wood with heavy
iron braces. It winds like a corkscrew to a height OF sixty feet
in the air. The path is about "a inches wide, and an ordinary
man who walks to the top will become very dizzy indeed.
Legare appears. Alarge iron globe, about four feet in d-
ameter, lies near. He jumps nimbly on this and starts it going.
Back and forth it goes, without seeming to cause Legare the
slightest concern. Then he does some juggling while keeping
it in motion, and finally gives an exhibition Of fancy rifle
shooting that is simply wonderful.
But the main performance, the most thrilling OF all, is
the ascent to the top Of the tower while standing on the
globe. It seems easy. II does not appear to be in the least
dangerous. But years and years were required to perfect It
and the slightest misstep or the least miscalculation would
send Legare sixty feet to the ground.
The ascent made is Creepy" enough, but the descent is yet
more thrilling. Each evening, when about halt way down,
Legare fires a revolver, which in turn sets off a brilliant DIS.
play Of fireworks, and the descent is finished amidst a mass OF
fire.
Once seen, the Legare spiral tower makes the average gym
nastic performance look easy. Nothing like this act has ever
been seen in the Dakotas and it is a treat for all VINO ENJOY
seeing a really fine performance.

STREET Fair
sensational Performances On Main st.
RAY BURTON IN HIS WONDERFUL AND ORIGINAL
SHOOTING WIRE HGT 4
HIGH PRICED AcRoBATs, MUSIC

The street fair feature Of the Aberdeen Carnival is alone
greater than many so-caled carnivals and fairs. Every fore
noon, Immediately after the arrival of the excursion trains, the
performances will begin, lasting until nearly noon They will
all be from platforms erected on Main street and will be, of
course, absolutely free to all.
The performance Of first Importance will be Ray Burton on
the slack or shooting wire. The act is all done on a wire reach
ing from a considerable height to the ground. On this Burton
does fancy shooting at a target, juggles, hangs by his toes, and
in concluding shoots the entire length Of the wire like . fash,
head down, and hanging by his toes. This act has been per-
formed by Burton before practically all the royalty Of Europe
and before immense audiences in the eastern states. This
whole page might be filled with press notices landing this act
in the most extravagant terms, but there are too many other
features that demand attention.
From another platform a series Of high class acrobatic per-
forn1ances will be put on. These will be first class in every
respect and such as would serve as the main attraction for
small shows and some circuses..
RACE OF THE .STORKs
An absolutely new and novel feature of the free street shows
will be q race between two gigantic trained storks, the only
appearance Of this feature in the western world.
H FLORAL ARADE
For the first time a floral parade will be put on in Aberdeen,
and those who visit the city during the carnival will see a
magnificent spectacle. "A committee Of prominent society
ladies have charge of the local arrangements, while expert
decorators from the east will provide the flowers and do the
decorating. The parade will be seen Thursday evening, Oc-
tober Ist, and will be the grandest feature of the week.
BAND MUSIC
The celebrated Rough Riders Military Band will give free
open air concerts at intervals from 10 o'clock each forenoon,
