Unattractivc in Appearance.

In appearance Kingston was un- attractive and it's buildings in- ferior. It was lighted by electricity and had electric railways. The suburbs are remarkable for their beauty. The governor and the wealthiest people lived there, while the poorer classes, mostly negroes, lived in the city proper.
 The harbor of Kingston is in- closed to the southward by mar row strip about seven miles in length, at the western extremity of which, at the mouth of the harbor. lie the ruins of the old town of Port Royal, which, on June z, 1892, was destroyed by an earth quake, 5000 of the inhabitants of the island being killed.
 Destroyed Many Times.
 As terror after the earthquake ke subsided new houses were erected and the place began again to flourish, but in 17O3 a fire broke out in a warehouse where gun powder was stored, and in a few hours the entire town was in flames. With the exception of the royal forts and magazines not a building was left. NotwithstandinP these occurrences, the town was again re-established. New houses were built and trade restored, bu on August 22, 1722, storm passed over the town, which swept thf greater portions of the buildings into the sea and destroyed mum Der of lives. This further calamity was again forgotten, and Port Roya was again crowded with houses anG enriched by profitable trade.
 July 13, 1916, fire broke out an( in a few hours again destroyed tn, whole place and left many of t, inhabitants almost destitute. Tn town again suffered severely the hurricane of August IS. 1880 ana very many of the houses the. wholly or partially destroyed wera permitted to remain in that oon dition.
