THE BUSY FAIR STORE I 5 CVVYYyyYYyyyyYYVVVYVY Island of Hao, Morakau and Hiquera Virtually Washed Away 600 Is landers Perished. snu Francisco, Cal., March IS. The steam Mariposa which arrived j from Australia lately brought addi , tlonal news of the typhoon and tidal i wave at Pearl Island group in the j middle of January. The French gov j ernnient investigated the disaster and i found that about 600 Islanders per ! ished during the storm. The proper j ty loss is half a million dnllnrs. After the wind had subsided ami tuo waters receded hundreds of drowned natives were found tied to trees about j the places. Hiquerti, one of the is- ( lands visited by the deluge, was best able to understand Its force, ns its j highest place is but 12 feet above the j ocean. The residents flocked to the heights and sought safety by binding themselves to rocks and trees. There they remained for three or four days, j during which the storm swept over j the dreadful scene. The islands of Hao, Morakau and Hiqueru are virtually washed away, , as they are present a little above the sea level and are destitute of vege tation. On them a man cannot sub sist, as the soil has vanished. The cocoanut trees are dried up and dead. On the awful night of .January 15, during the darkness and driving down pour of rain, parents tied their little children to their backs and sought safety. Over their heads rolled a mighty wave, and when the surges re treated the infants and half gTown boys and girls succumbed. A father or mother would vainly endeavor to retain the corpses of the dead, but usually at length had to abandon them. Messrs. Cheffield and Allen, elders of the Mormon church, and Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert, of the Latter Day Saints' mission, passed a terrible night in the trees and narrowly escaped death.

The story of fatality in Morakaui where 95 to 100 inhabitants perished, i3 extremely sad. It is likely than one-fifth of the entire population of the Tuamotu grout succumbed. About 1000 survivors were in danger of starvation or perishing from thirst or disease. It was to the credit of Americans that relief from thirst came in the form of condensed water. "With prim itive machinery 200 gallons of fresh water was distilled dally for several days. Food has been sent in from other islands. Georgia Sunday Schools. Madison, Ga., March 17.
