Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1894-08-09
A Long Ride.

This morning about 1880 two
young men rode into Rock Island on
bicycles. One was Boyd GRAY, the
colored boot black, who is riding
from New York to San Francisco and
New Orleans and thence back to New
York. 1t was on May that Boyd
left the Office of the New York World
on his long ride and if all goes well
he expects to reach San Francisco by
the middle of October. 1t is his in
tention to make $500 on his journey,
for the purpose of paying off mort
gage on his fathers property near
Atlanta. He not only carries boot
blacks box, but on the red sweater
which he wears are the words: II
ride Derby" So that between
what money he makes at shining
shoes, he receives remuneration of
the manufacturers of the Derby
bike which he rides.
Boyd has, on an average, made from
IS to 1875 miles day until the last
few days, when he has made but
about 60. His companion is Robert
Miller, white lad about 20 years of
age, whom Gray met near Chicago,
and who is on his way to his home
in Omaha.
Gray is a bright young fellow
about 81 or % years of age. and gen
tlemanly to a fault, and describes
many of his experiences on the way
in a highly intelligent manner. In

every few days he reports his pro-
gress to the Derby company.

BURYING THE VICTIMS.
The Work Continued at .Hincs<Iey-
The Mayors FruitIess Search.

PINE CITY, Mimi, Sept. 4.-The curious
apathy which had marked almost every
move at Hinckley yesterday gave way to
bustling activity to-day. During the night
a shack was put up for cook house and
in the early morning an enclosed room
was added to 1T for the storage of the COM
mssary supplies The people who had re-
mained over night quartered in the
tents which Captain Hart, quartermaster
of the First Brigade of the Minnesota Ma
tional Guard, had pitched last evening. Vol
unteers were more numerous than yester-
day, affairs assumed a more settled
aspect The early trains brought up men
who came TO work and-not TO abandon
themselves to the qualification of a morbid
curiosity. AT an early hour force of
men was started out to the cemetery To
complete the work of interment. The work
proceeded rapidly, but it met with one pc
culiarly sad interruption. Yesterday Lee
Webster, Mayor of Hinckley, thought he
recognized his wife in the heap of dead.
During his temporary absence the body
he hoped to claim for a more formal and
sacred burial was thrown into the pit and
covered up. When he learned of this to-
day he was half craZed with sorrow. With
assistance a portion of the trench where
some Iran remembered to have placed the
body WIS dug up. Either the body he
sought was not the one uncovered or the
scanty marks of identification had been de-
stroyed and Webster was forced to admit
that the shapelesS corpse was probably not
that of his wife.

SEARCHING FOR THE DEAD.
Many Bodies Found at Sandstone and
Other Places.

PINE CITY, Mimi, Sept. 4.-The death
roll at Sandstone has probably reached it's
limit and presents the total OF sixty-seven
This is not an estimate or a guess, but an
accurate count of the bodies inferred. Not
all were from the little village, a few hav-
ing been brought in from the immediate
vicinity. There are here immense quarries,
employing in a busy time a considerable
number of men when actively operated
For some time work has been light, but
recently an attempt has been made to in
crease the output, and large number of
men had been called in for the labor that
was offered. For this reason il is impossi-
BILE to get accurate estimate of the
population of the place. but a fair figure is
probably $50. Many took refuge in the quar-
ries and some in Kettle river, just below
in deep gorge, where the eastern Mime
sofa railway crosses a bridge three hun
dred feet long and go feet high. Many of
those who were burned were caught in the
village streets. In one well four persons
died a death that must have been a mix
ture of drowning, suffocation and burning.
To-day the well was utilized as a grave
and nine other bodies were placed in II
and all covered with earth.
To-day two rescuing parties were organ
lied in Pine City and placed in charge of
James Hunt, of North Branch. There were
twenty-five men, eleven in each party. One
party went up the government wagon road
which was the main road from Hinckey
to the northwest The other went up the
eastern road. The party on the government
road found no bodies The party on the
tracks found two OF men burned, and with
little about them to aid identification. This
was the net result OF the search in Sand
stone. Tomorrow two other parties will
so out in other directions The country
west is heavily wooded. with very few
clearings and little water. No report what
ever has been heard from the settlers, and
it is feared that all have perished

Majority Of the Injured Suffering
from ScOrched Eyes.

PINE CITY, Mimi, Sept. 4.-So thorough
ly have all the arrangements been made
for the relief of the sufferers around Hincl1-
ley that everything moves along without
a hitch. The people OF this little village
have responded nobly to the cry for help
that came from their suffering neighbors
and all that could be done has been done
for their relief. Medical supplies, clothing
bedding and other supplies were poured in
from all parts of the State and sent from
here to the place where most needed. The

Charities, has been on hand with his coun-
