High Wafer Story
Puts Reporter In
Hot Wafer Today

In yesterdays Empire, reporter
noted incorrectly that the last high
water rampage in Juneau was in
the year 1917, and this fact was
pointed out shortly after yester-
day afternoons edition hit the
street by several oldtimers.
But probably the best proof OF
the year was contained in an edition
of the old Douglas Island News, a
special issue bearing the title
eEquinoctial Edition. published on
Friday, September 81, 19l7-oops
we mean 1918 Almost did it again.
This aged and yellowed copy was
presented to the Empires erring re-
porter last night by Jack Langsleth,
and the story behind it is worth re-
peating. So put on your high water
pants and here we go:

after writing the story of the flood
a member of the Empire staff, did
the trick. Jack Langseth was the
printer who set the paper by hand

and turned it out on a press run by
foot power.
The power was off in Juneau and
the Empire was stumped.
1t was estimated that the flood
did damage in excess of 100000
In all, about 40 houses in the Casey
Shattuck Addition were vacated by
alarmed residents and fully half
that number were surrounded by
water from three to five feet deep
The Gold Greek bridge went out.
On Gold Street, just back of the
Gastineau Hotel, huge mass of
rock and trees came smashing down
from far up on the mountain and
moved one building, with its occu-
pants, clear across the street to
smash into an apartment house.
A tree more than foot in dia-
meter crashed into another house
occupied by woman and two child
rem and they all escaped uninjured.
Gastineau Flooded
The water rushed into the second
story of the Gastineau Hotel from
the bluff in the rear and flowed
down the stairs just like it belonged
there. into the cafe and office below.
1t also flooded Willis grocery store
and the Seward Building.
Sixty-five feet of the Alaska Ju-
neau railroad was carried away.
The mill was flooded, huge Orders
