SERIOUS CHARGES AGAINST A Two
LARBORs PRIEST.
He Is Accused of CriminalIy As
saulting n Youn:. Lady and Later
Attempting to Perform nm Abor-
ton to Hide His Crime.

1,
Duluth, May 30 Father Connolly Of
Two Harbors has been arrested on a
most serious charge. He is accused Of
both rape and attempted abortion The
victim is Nellie Sutherland, eighteen
years old, and an adopted daughter of
M, u. Harmon. It is charged that some
time ago he made improper approaches
to the girl and when she refused to ac-
cede to his desires overcame her by force
Some time since it was developed that
the girl was pregnant, and to conceal his
shame and that of the girl, the priest two
or three days ago is said to have at
tempted to perform an abortion It was
unsuccessful, and the girl is now at
deaths door. The condition O.. affairs
was discovered by Father Buh Of Tower.
It is probable that Father Connolly may
have to answer to the charge Of murder
or manslaughter. Father Connolly was
in trouble last year at Crookston. He
was then accused of getting some woman
drunk and of having improper relations
with her. He was suspended, but
claimed it was blackmail An inycsti-
cation was granted and he was rein
stated.

WAS TT MTIRDERp

Spokane, Wash, May .29.-Meager par
ticulars of murder at Sterner, Idaho, a
small placer mining camp on Palouse
river, reached here. e. A. Babe, former
blacksmith of this city, was the victim.
Babe with three other men was engaged
in placer mining. They had met with
good success, and had a quantity Of
geld in the pit. Fearing the interference
Of outsiders they divided themselves into
iva SHIFTS, two watching rne mggines
while the other two slept. Rhde had be-
come suspicious of his partners; and some
Of the gold had mysteriously disappeared.
Slipping out of bed, he resolved to visit
the claim and watch his partners. There
was clump Of trees near by, and Babe
stationed himself behind one to watch.
His presence was detected, and the next
minute he received bullet through the
head. Sentiment is divided as to whether
the murder was intended or whether
Bade's partners took him for a robber.
Bade's parents reside in Minnesota.

Sundance to plant an American flag on
top of Devils Tower in the Black Hills.
The tower is 1000 feet high, measures
500 feet in circumference at the base
and $50 feet at the top. It is supposed
to have been a chimney to some sub
terranean fire. It is perfectly round in
form, the sides being futed like portico
column. No one has ever yet stood on
the top of this curious tower. It is in.
accessible, the sides offering no foothold
Rogers claims he will cut footholes as
he ascends. Should he be successful he
will receive 5000.
