a state Of panic prevails at Nalpa-
raiso
Santiago also suffered severely and
there was much loss of life.
Los Andes, IS miles east of San
Felipe and having a population of s.
900 was almost totally destroyed.
Other towns on the Chilean side Of
the Andes wholly or partially destroy
ed are QuilIOta. with a population Of
5000; Llai-Llai $500: Illapel 5000;
Vallenar 5000, and Sanfelipe having
$4,000. There was great loss Of life
at Quillota.
From Santiago to the Andes, every
bridge was totally wrecked and the
railway lines torn up.
The shock is supposed to have been
caused by the eruption of volcano
near Junin Los Andes 1t is impos-
sible to estimate the dimension Of the
disaster at the present moment on ac-
count of the circujtOus route over
which the news is received. There is
no. doubt. however. that the catas-
trophe was Of large proportion.
Berlin, August 1S-The Warsaw cCr-
respondent of the Vossische Zeitung
gives the following description of it:
The population is terribly distress
ed. and there is hardly any street
traffic on account Of the insecurity Of
life All the hospitals are so over
crowded that patients are obliged TO
lie on the floors and passages. In the
mOrgue there are still lying 3S dead
who were found in the streets. 1t is
not known how many have been buried
secretly during the night by the police.
It is impossible to ascertain the num-
Der of dead or wounded. Dr. LOrten
WalO bandaged the wounds of 4I2 per-
sons. The center of the town is quiet
but it is most dangerous to enter the
Jewish quarter"
Santiago. Chile, August 1S.-lt ~
reported from Valparaiso that hVe
thousand deaths resulted from the
earthquake there. Details are incom-
pleto as there is no direct COmmuni-
cation between Valparaiso and San

DR.. A. G. Asquith returned Sunday
evening from his hunting trip in Routt
county. The doctor was successful in
killing large buck. This we know
from the fact that we received several
slices of the venison and we don't care
what anyone may say to the contrary
When anyone goes hunting or fishing
and brings us back some deer meat or a
mess Of trout we will believe that they
got what they went after and no amount
of argument can induce us to believe
otherwise. or course there may be
times when hunters or fishmen return
with game or trout and tits claimed by
their friends that they returned with
empty bags. That leaves an opening
for doubt. But when anyone shows up
around this sanctum with something to
show for their hunting or fishing, we
will believe them every time. we don't
care what others may say. "Seeing is
believing"
