The Tragedy in SPHINX County.


Huron Leader: Mr.. 1. N. Reed, whose
ten year old son Clarence was killed in
the boiler explosion which occurred near
Frankfort last Saturday, gives the fol.
lowing particulars in the case:
The accident occurred on the farm of
Frank Taylor, seven miles from Frank
fort, and nine miles east of Ashton, at 10
O'Clock in the forenoon. Mr.. Reed had
left the thrashing machine and driven to
his own place, short distance off, when
be heard terrible noise, which sounded
like the booming of cannon; and look.
ing in the direction whence the noise
came, he saw objects hurled into the air,
although hill hid the place from view.
Mounting horse he hurried to the
scene of the disaster, where an appalling
sight met his gaze.
The engine was blown to pieces, the
threshing machine, grain stacks and
straw piles we're all on fire. His little
boy Clarence had been taken uway the
straw with q horse and rake, but when
the anxious father arrived his son was no
where to be seen. MIR. Reed passed
around to the other side of the machine,
and there, near the engine, lay the poor
boy.
On picking up the child he found that
his body was full of splnters and other
objects. An oil can that had gone
through his leg was pulled out, a piece
of wood eight inches in length was found
in his side, just beneath the arm, one of
the shoulders was dislocated and wrist
broken, and one entire side was bruised
and burned.
MIR. Heed with the assistance of apoth.
er man, carried the mangled child to his
house, washed him, and started in con-
vcyance for Ashton for medical aid, the
little sufferer being still alive. But be-
fore they reached their destination the
spirit of the boy had fled from the MAIN.
ed and bleeding body.
The father was too grief.stricken to
notice the full extent of the damage done
BY the explosion, but thinks there were
no less than five or six persons living
near either killed or wounded. it is
supposed that the accident was caused
by filling the boiler too full of water,
after it had become almost empty.
Mr.. Reed stayed at the Wright House
over Saturday night aud left the CITY for
his home in Chicago on the noon train
to meet his wife.

A temporary capital for the new state
OF DAKOTA Is to be selected. and the COM
mittee of the constitutional convention
having the matter in charge have decided
to report in favor of Yankton. The Sioux
Falls Press. in commenting upon this
and other matters, intimates that there
will be a lively struggle for the tenn
porary seat OF government, and expresses
the conviction that some place should be
chosen the location of which will not
recommend it as permanent capital
nor jeopardize the chances of any of the
aspiring points for permanent capital
honors. We therefore infer that Yank-
ton will not be obnoxious to the Press
aud we take it that no point in southern
Dakota can be further removed from the
actual strife when the question of a
permanent location comes upon the field.
Besides Yankton offers more advantages
IN many respects than can be obtained
at any other point. The archives of
Dakota are here-every accommoda.
ton that can be had for the
new state legislature IS here ready at
hand-the public library and the records
of Dakota, which will be Invaluable to
the first Legislature, and when the ques.
tion of permanent location is to be dis
posed of, Yankton will be found ready
to join with the rest of the people in fix.
ing it at such point as will be most
convenient and accessible to all portions
of the state. In the meantime the as
piring communities can get their houses
IN order.

Mr.. E. J. Houseal, aged twenty-four

He was endowed with an activity of
