TOWN OF ROOSEVELT
Is WIPED OUT.
landslide Covers the Whole Town
With Mud and Rocks.

ROOSEVELT. Idaho. June -
Not building viii be left in Roose-
Welt when the mud and rock slide,
which broke forth three miles from
town May 30 stops. The spot where
the town was located will be covered
over by hundreds OF feet OF tale,
which reaches back to the base OF
Tunder mountain. In spite of the
destruction wrought miners are re-
joicing because Of the new ground
opened by the huge slide back in the
mountain, which would have meant
the expenditure of thousands of dol
lars to uncover by manual labor.
Told by Mr.. Nash WayIand.
The only woman in Roosevelt, Mrs.
Nash Wayland, wife OF the postmas-
ter tells this story OF the destruction
Of the little mining city in central
Idaho:
Miners at Roosevelt were aroused
at 8 o'clock Sunday night by the
creeping slide. 200 feet wide and 100
feet deep, rock and trees tumbling
down near their cabins and predict
ing certain destruction to their
homes. Trees three feet In diameter
were snapped as II matches. The en-
tire night was spent In moving the
supplies and cabins. The water
backed up at o'clock the next morn
ing and Wayland and Richardson
moved their supplies on a raft. The
few people in town when the slide
started worked together to save NOV
able articles. The penstock of the
Mysterious Slide Co. was wiped out
and the giant mill and other maehln-
cry are now covered with fifty feet
OF debris
Cabins belonging to Miners Tim
Burns and Whitcomb were crushed
like dry goods boxes. All moving
was done by hand, all the horses
owned in camp being miles away.
Shortly after the slide broke
loose 1t moved at the rate Of eight
feet a minute. but afterward slid
along as majestically as a ship. bury
ing everything before it, The con-
tents of three buildings which are
now floating in the street in a pool
made by the water being backed up,
was moved three times. Messrs.
Busby, Johnson, Holeomb and Cal
Morgan, heard the rumble of the
slide in their camps in the mountain
and rushed to assist Roosevelt peo-
pie. The debris carried by the slide
will FIJI the canyon twenty feet deep"
