TAKU WIND PAYS
ANNUAL VISIT TO
JUNEAU; DAMAGE
“Blow Ye Winds. BlowC^-coming
at the rate cf 84 miles an hour, the
old Taku played a merry game
around Juneau last night and early
this morning. While it has not >
reached its record of destruction,
•made la.: year, it shook a wicked
gale during the hours between the
Inst dusk and tho dawn. Venture
some pedestrians who walked the
streets, did most of their walk rug
sliding and crawling, satisfied that
they had not been draped around
the top of a polo or swept Into the
Channel.
While tho damage so far has not
boon severe, it has caused consider
able loss, Windows were broken,
telephone linos crossed, putting tele
phones out of commission; automo
biles were danragod, and buildings
damaged. Tito most severe damage
Dairyman Mathews, which wus se
riously hurt, when tho building lous
ing it and tivo other cows, owno I
it-y Mathews, was blown down about
<t;S0 o'clock last night. It is ex
pected the cow cannot be sav d.
The building 'is an old one, roughly
built, on the W. W. Casev property
on Willoughby Agon no, and own i
1ry the Juneau Gun Club. It was 50
feet long by 14 feet wide, an I w.i
used by the club as a club lions •
rave raj years ago. For sonic lima it
lias been, used by Mathows as a barn
lor his ©own.
(Somehow the T.uku seems to have
especially picked on the local dairy
■man and L. H Sm th, is one Ford
ear to the bail today. Yesterday
f,fteraoon Mr. Smith parked his car
on-Second iand Seward Streets while
lie entered a building to deliver an
order of milk. When ho came » i
of tfee building he saw his car across
tho afreet end the entire top > .
from it. First ho looked for anotlu i
damaged car, thinking a passing
machine had skidded on the ic.v
street and hit his ear. Just aboui
then the playful hand of the Taki;
reached out and slapped him, an
lie knew the story, he says.
