M. P: Dewitt returned Tuesday of
last week from Geuda Springs, where he
has been for some time under ply
sicians care. He has improved very
much and is gaining rapidly. When he
went to the Springs he was a very sick

GUAM STRICKEN BY
HEAVY EARTHQUAKE

WASHINGTON, December 10.-A
severe earthquake occurred in Guam at
8 a. N. today, causing considerable
damage, according to cablegram re-
eeived at the navy department. The
women s and children S hospital was
wrecked. There were no casualties.
From the wording of the dispatch,
which shows few details, it would seem
that the principal damage occurred to
the hospital, which is described as I'M
tenable. 1t will require $4,000 to repair
the hospital. The population of Guam
is about 1000, practically all natives

Expensive Moves.

The present Y. NJ. c. A. site, accord
ing to the assessment books, is rated
as worth $1,000 more than the library
land and building, and the general i'm
preston among those conversant with
realty values in the neighborhood is
that the figures are about correct. But
the library trustees believe that the
$1,000 gained by the trade would be
speedily swallowed up in moving and
repairs, and that the deal. as proposed
by the Y. NJ. c. A.. would not prove
profitable to the library.
