DROWNED.
The Sad Death of Georgie Wood.

1t becomes the painful task of the
Herald this week to chronicle the death
of young son of j. ii. Wood of this
place.
About four o'clock Tuesday after
noon number of boys ranging from
SIX to twelve years of age entered the
engine house at Lamson & Farms
worth's elevator, unnoticed by any of
the workmen, there being no one in the
room at the time. In this room is an
open well some fifteen feet deep and
containing about eight feet of water,
into which George Wood, aged seven,
walked, in attempting to reach the other
boys who were at the pump.
The other boys were so frightened at
what had happened that. instead Of
telling the men at work on the floor
above, they started for home. Being
met by Frank Wood when nearly home
he asked them where George was, but
could get no answer until he had re-
peated the question five or six times,
when one of the boys said he had fallen
into the well at the elevator, and went
with him to show the place, Mr.. Wood
following close behind. Nothing was
known of the occurrence at the eleya-
tor until after the arrival of Mr.. Wood.
| A ladder was lowered into the well and
the body taken out, but 1T had been so
long in the water that all attempts at
resuscitation proved of no avail. The
funeral took place from the house at
two o'clock Wednesday afternoon.
The sympathies of the entire commu-
nifty are extended to the sorrowing
| family in their hour of bereavement,
this being the second death in the fami-
/ ly within few months.

fine tenor voices, as deep bass, as soft
and tender soprano as any choir can
boast; only they always sing the same
old tune. They have no duets, trios, or
quartettes, but employ only the chorus,
but you don't care for too much of it or
too close contact with the choir. Even
in such free concert, a back seat is
preferable.

Here is problem which agitated the
fertile brain of the Iowa editorial fra
ternity last winter: II a man sells a
farm for $4,000, buys it back again for
$3.400, and sells it finally for $780,
how much has he gained by his trans
actions? ! have seen editors, profess
sors, lawyers and practical book-keep-
ers, gravely discuss the question, but no
four of them could sgree. 1t is great
deal like the example, "If oats are
twenty cents a bushel, how many
quarts of peanuts will it require to fat
u boot-jack?"

A Hurleyite Captures one of Iowa's Fair
Daughters.
At Independence Iowa. Nov. 2s, Mr.. c. II, (,
Lovin, of Hurley, and Miss Eva A. Clark. OF in-;
dependence.
The above notice will no doubt be a
surprise to many of the Herald's read
ers in this vicinity, and also in Gahks
ton, where Mr.. Lovin resided for a year
or more and where he has large circle
of friends. But Charlie has "gone and
done it." He has taken the step which
all young men should take as soon as
they are permanently settled in busi-
ness. He has taken "a partner who
will rejoice at his every success and
sympathise with him in his misfort-
unes-which we hope may be little
ones.
The Herald extends to Mrs. Lovin a
kindly greeting and the hope that in
her new home she may be able to real
ize all her bright expectations and that
the partnership she has formed may
ever be one of pleasure to heseii and to
her newly made friends.

The Baptist church was well filled
last Sunday evening to listen to the
promised lecture by Mr.. II. NJ. Nelson.
Mr.. Nelson is a native of Sweden and
came to this country eleven years ago.
he being at that time eleven years of
age. BY hard work and hard study he
has provided himself with good edu-
cation, and has recently entered the
lecture field.
The subject chosen for his discourse.
"The Goal of Life" was handled in a
manner which showed extended read
ing and much study. The lecture was
well received by the audience and we
bespeak for the lecturer bright future
in his chosen field. Another lecture
will be delivered by Mr. Nelson in the
near future, under the auspices of the
w. G. T. U.
Although not strictly temperance
lecture, it was to our mind Of the kind
that do more good and have more in
tluence and effect upon the young men
than the "you must and 'you shall
not style. Young America objects
to being drove, but he is easily led if
the right kind of a line is used and it is
properly handled.

"Under the cir cumstances" said Judge Wylie, "the court has no hesitation in allowing that but one man can't be guilty of conspiracy.

One Hundred and SeVenty-EiSht
 Children Killed in Sunder-

London, June 16., A terrible ca
 lamity, involving death to IFS chil-
 dren, occurred in Sunderland, Dur
 ham, this afternoon. From the de
 tails it appears that an entertainment,
 given in Victoria hall by coniuror,
 was attended almost altogether by
 children, several thousand being in
 attendance. The accident occurred
 at the close of the performance, the
 body of the hall being cleared of its
 Occul ants, when 1,200 of the little
 ones came rushing down from the
 gallery. At the top of the first flight
 of stars was door, which opened
 only twenty inches, and thus but one
 child at time got through. At this
 point, while the mass of children
 were pushing forward, one of them
 fell and was unable to raise owing to the others crowding. The result was that great number were pushed down, trampled on and suffocated. The scene was terrible. No effort could stop the mad rush of affrighted children. They cam3 pell nell, tho strangely without much shout ing, and soon IFS were knocked dowU and suffocated to death by others tramping on them. The greater number of the bodies which were badly mangled from the tramp. ling, laid seven or eIght deep. Many of the victims not killed had their clothing torn from their bodies and this, together with the bleeding bodies of the unfortunates. shows the 1 terrible nature of the struggle. The ages of the ITS children known to have been killed ranged from to 14 years. The excitement in town, where the news spread, was terrific. Great crowds rushed to the scene until 20 900 people were surrounding the hall. The feeling is intense. The authori- ties ordered out the Sixty eighth In fantry to preserve order. The work of getting out the bodies began i'm mediately. They were laid out in the hall, and the parents cf those killed were admitted to identify their children. Heart-rendins scenes occurred while the identification was in progress; mothers of the dead chil- dren constantly utterlng piercing shrieks, and many tainted on discovering the bodies of their little ones.

Bernalillo county, New Mexico, of which the fiourishing city of Albu- querque is the county seat, owes ten thousand dollars, and yet its county scrip is worth only sixty cents on the dollar. Mohave nty,Arizona, with about one fifth its population and taxable property, owes about twenty thousand dollars and vet its county scrip is worth ninety cents on the dollar and has been for more than year past, some of our store keepers even taking it at par in pay
 ment for merchandise. Comparing these two instances we should say that there must be a screw loose in the financial management of Bernar. lilo county or else that the financial condition of Mohave county is won derfuIIy healthy and its affairs ex- csptionally well managed.
