storm started about two o'clock
in the morning following a
slight earthquake, and from

afternoon. Considerable dam
age was done by the big wind
and sea along the waterfront,
several gas boats being driven
on (he shore and smashed more
or less. Several shacks in (he
lower part of town were blown
down and other damage done.
Considerable excitement was

tle blowing but it, turned out
to be a false alarm caused bv
|he wind blowing a stick again<1
the whistle cord causing the
whistle bo blow. Most of the
lumber piles in the sawmill
yard are down as a result of
the blow. The wind died down
after high tide and things were
soon back in their normal con
