Mexico, City, March 28.— Chiiapa, a
town of 16,000 inhabitants in the etate
of Guerrero, haa bean shaken by an
earthquake and burned.
\
Tha »books, two in number, occurred
early last evening and ware followed
by.fi re, which originating in a doaan
places among the tumbling buildings,
joined in a conflagration that swept tho
town. -
Governor Damian Florae, chief
ntivc of the etate of Guerrero, who ia
at present in this city, bad at 9 o’clock
this evening just teoeived the first offi
cial advices from Obllape.
The mes
sage says that, although a number of
the buildings of the town were leveled
to the ground, no lives wars lost. The
police quarters and |the mayor’s office
were destroyed and the jail badly dam-
aged.
Great flasnres ware qpade in tha
streets and open fields.
In the neighboring town of Ometepec
tha jail waa destroyed and 30 prisoners
made their escape. Troops are guard
ing the public buildings that are stand
ing in Cbilapa, but perfect order pre
vails.
Later retnrps from Chiiapa show,
however, that the dispatch received by
Governor Flores waa nitre conservative.
Tha town I waa practically destroyed,
though,no lives wars lost. Moat of the
buildings that ta r e leveled ware resi
dences.

Making America Warmer and

Victoria, B. C.. March 28.— That the
north pole ia shifting and tha climate
ia changing, making tha Northern terri
tories of this continent warmer and
Norther Asia colder, Is the theory to
■upport which M o m B. (Jotworth, ot
York, England, has bean withering evi
dence hi Alaska, from where he has re
turned on hie way to England.
A curious effect of thia change, it is
■aid, may be a number of boundary
difficulties between Canada and the
United States, especially in tbe Eastern
partfon.
Thia boundary is fixed by
latitude, and if the north pole is really
moving, tbe latitudes change also, ren
dering it advisable that the boundary
be speedily marked everywhere by
permanent monuments, where it has
not yet been so marked already.
The movement, Cot worth aaye, ia
caused by tha Immense.accumulations

Arctic ocean, and especially in Baffln’a
