The prospects for the game are ex-

gathered in front of the entrance to

TACOMA. Wash, Oct. 24.-Valdez
cables say reports from Port Wells
show that the earthquake, which put
the Alaska cable out of commission,
was much more severe to the west
ward than at Valdez. At the new
town OF Golden the shock was so se-
we're that it started many immense
landslides on the surrounding noun
tains. The Inhabitants were so
alarmed by the shake and the roar ac-
companying the avalanches that they
took to their boats and spent the
whole night afloat. One side, con-
tanning millions of tons of rock, crash
ed down the mountain side to the
beach, destroying part of Golden.
One peculiar effect of the earth
quake was the killing of myriads of
fish. Near the entrance of the bay
the water was covered with dead fish
of all kinds. Ii is believed the earth
quake was accompanied by some dis
turbance of the ocean bed in the
vicinity of Port Wells.

his thirst, leaped from a second-story
window of the hospital and outsprint-
